    Sidearms & Scatterguns Red Dot Dilemma

    This has got to be the dumbest post in this thread. Classic gun gamer mentality. Try getting some training from people focused on civilian carry (reactive application), not a competition shooter. Priorities there are very different, which anyone who's actually taken the time to study would know...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Red Dot Dilemma

    Deleting the rear sight is a mistake unless it's a competition gun or purely a range toy. Good news is most people who get into this end up with multiple optic mounted pistols so there's always next time.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Thanks for the info guys! I'm ashamed to say I wasn't a paying member before, but am now. I'd way rather support people like this who get things done than Fudds like the NRA.

    20 Practical

    MP501 is not Lever. You can't pretend to know what Lever will do based on results of some other powder, especially when you stopped just based on a number that you thought might be too much. Gotta learn to read pressure signs instead of guesswork like that; if you did you'd find out that 8208...

    AR10 pulling rim off and marring on brass

    It won't. That chamber was rough to start with and appears to have been damaged with sand or something (maybe corrosion?). It needs to be honed smooth again, and no sense trying other workarounds when the answer is so simple and easy to do, and relatively cheap too.

    20 Practical

    If you want to run them fast (I mean, that's the whole point of 20 cal, right?) then use Lever. You can make 8208 work but it'll be a lot slower. Important to understand that this is partly about burn rate, but also about energy density - Lever burn rate is a little slower than 8208 but it's...

    AR10 pulling rim off and marring on brass

    The very first pic shows the cause of the issue, but it's not the darker longitudinal scratches you're probably looking at, it's the circumferential rings in the chamber (most visible near the upper left of that pic) that were caused by a rough chambering job and not honed out. You can see...

    Suppressor recommendation for Lever action rifles

    Thanks captain obvious. Seriously dude, you should spend a little more time reading what other people have said before rushing to reply.

    Needing some .308 subsonic hand load advice

    Not sure I understand what you're trying to ask. I've loaded 90gr bullets subsonic in both 308 and 30/06. Come to think of it, I've loaded powder coated round balls too, well below typical subsonic speeds. Use a fast powder. Cast coated lead bullets are more forgiving for very mild subsonic...

    Suppressor recommendation for Lever action rifles

    Yep, Rugged Obsidian 45 as said above - good balance of price vs performance, and rated as one of the quieter big bore pistol suppressors. Of course you could look at a dedicated SMG can (fixed mount, and generally larger than pistol cans) if you don't want to also use this on a semi-auto...

    Review of the Leapers Over-Bore Bipod

    Yeah they're worth checking out. Leapers doesn't have the best reputation (starting off as cheap chinese junk is rarely the best way to get a good rep) and I don't disagree with that in general, but this particular bipod is actually pretty solid. It is heavy though, and IMO suited well for heavy...

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Paid for itself how? It doesn't cost any more to submit a F1/4 as an individual. I've had an active trust for a long time now, since my first can in the early 2000's. Doesn't cost me any money to use it now of course, but I don't, because what's the point? It's just more hassle when submitting...

    Obsidian 45 Individual, silencershop kiosk (eforms) I forget the dates, approval took 3 days. Personally I see zero reason to keep using trusts these days. They made sense years ago pre-41P, but now IMO are being promoted mostly by lawyers engaged in the business of selling trusts.
