Misconceptions cleared up on suppressors (VIDEO)
Top Shot competitor Chris Cheng teamed up with Surefire, an Australian SAS guy and a cop to break down the pluses and minuses of suppressors from all three viewpoints in one PSA.

A French journalist’s discussion with superstar Justin Bieber spanned music to money to tattoos to beliebers to fame to … guns?
