EDIT: According to this, the dude in the meme is not the actual shooter. I haven't seen any legit sources one way or another. It's just a meme, please leave this guy alone.

Or get him in touch with Hawk T'ua Girl. Either way, he deserves it.

From what I know of suppressor prices (with legal suppressors requiring literally all of the paperwork and the filing fees to go with it), that suppressor seems like the best deal in the meme

Edit: Well, the second best deal.

Something tells me this guy didn’t pay the tax stamp and give the government his exact address and fingerprints when he acquired that suppressor.

Especially because from the video it doesn’t look like he’s ever shot that suppressed pistol before, or he’d have fixed it to actually cycle the gun properly. Having your gun jam on every shot is not exactly ideal when you’re planning something like this, and it sure sounds like he planned everything else decently well.

Likely the suppressor was homemade and probably not test fired due to the risk of getting caught. That means this guy likely lives in an urban or suburban area where people are likely to report the sound of muffled gunshots. That only leaves most of the country as suspects.
