    Enough familiarity with his firearm that he can clear FTF/FTE without hesitation, not enough time to familiarize himself with suppressor mechanics and effect on handgun cycling. I wouldn’t be overly surprised if this was a recent form 4 registration.

      I’m betting it’s a Temu “oil filter” not a proper suppressor that requires paperwork. Shooter clearly knew they were cutting corners but practiced to deal with it anyhow.

        That’s wild, I didn’t even know that was a thing. I wonder if he’d have had better luck buying a US-made piston off the shelf and finding an “oil filter” that fits.
