Suppressed

I do firearms law, and this is one that happens about every three months: “So, I have this invention, and I want you to write a legal opinion confirming that it is legal. See, it is designed to protect from lead exposure when you go shooting. Lead is a serious health risk.”
“Does this invention involve a tube that fits on the end of your gun and contains a series of baffles to capture the vented gasses?”
“Yes.” “Sir, you have ‘invented’ the suppressor, which is a prohibited device here in Canada…” Story credit: Reddit / varsil
