Night Vision Trijicon and IRS

Just a heads up, if you buy a Trijicon thermal expecting to get a "free" Trijicon tenmile scope they will require all your personal information including your Social Security Number, then they will send you a 1099 tax form and send the 1099 information to the IRS. I complained to Eurooptic because this was not disclosed on their site. To see this information you have to start the scope redemption process. Just my thoughts I don't try to redeem a "free" scope until after I get my receipt for the purchase, it's a waste of time because you have to have the receipt. I believe that most firearm equipment customers prefer to know that they will be putting their name on an IRS list before making the purchase. Also paying income tax on the "free" scope means it's not free. Just thought some of you would want to know.

Broken-down man wants gas+dB AR suppressor advice

As opposed to suppressing an AR the absolute most (damn the torpedos!) I am asking about which suppressors on a 5.56 AR have the best compromise of:
  • the least gas blowback + best suppression at the shooter’s ear
For reference I own a PWS MK116 (16”) Mod 1 upper (for the curious, on a Mod 2 lower). It uses a long-stroke gas piston arrangement, and I bought it specifically to minimize le gas. But don’t focus too hard on that…I may buy other uppers including DI.

Due to eye health issues, I haven’t yet shot the rifle, but if the universe abides, I may so get to soon.

Note: The decibel reduction isn’t an idle masturbatory concern. My left ear has been confirmed by a doctor to have something wrong with it. I lose hearing in the left even if I double up and shoot unsuppressed. Shooting anything, even out in an open field!!! Can’t be around unsuppressed gunfire for the same reason.

Right ear is fine. It appears I can double-up the left ear and shoot suppressed and be gtg. I’m in my 50’s but apparently am actually 85 inside lol.
  • Don’t really care about muzzle suppression
  • Ditto flash suppression. No NV/thermal.
  • I shoot varmints like prairie dogs
It seems the Huxwrx Flow 556k would be in the running. Others?

PSA: Join the Gun Owners of America if you haven't already. And get others to join as well. Twin GOA victories in NM and ND. More lawsuits on the way.

Last week, coalition efforts led by the Gun Owners of America helped secure a restraining order against the Democratic New Mexico governor's extremely unconstitutional and overbearing weapons carry ban.

Almost simultaneously, in a slightly less covered case, the GOA also helped a North Dakota gun store owner facing a forced shut down order from the ATF secure a legal victory which saw the ATF backing down and rescinding the order.

The GOA is also preparing more lawsuits to be brought against the ATF for their "Zero Tolerance" policies that are forcing legitimate gun vendors to close their doors over the most trivial paperwork errors.

Boudreaux. (Because we need a bit of fun around here)

Boudreaux was in an advanced Biology class at ULL and was taking his mid-term exam. The last question was, “Name seven advantages of Mother's Milk.”

The question was worth 70 points or none at all.

Boudreaux was really hard pressed to think of seven advantages. However, he wrote:

1) It is the perfect formula for a child.
2) It provides immunity against several diseases.
3) It is always the right temperature.
4) It is inexpensive.
5) It bonds the child to the mother, and vice versa.
6) It is always available as needed.

And then Boudreaux was stuck.

Finally, in desperation, just before the bell rang indicating the end of the test, he wrote:

7) It comes in two attractive containers and it's high enough off the ground to where the cat can't get to it.

Boudreaux got himself an A.

Maggie’s WWII Vet

A couple of buddies and I always go to a local bar on Wednesdays for $2.00 16oz draft beers, a pretty good deal in todays economy.

I noticed a group of about 6 people come in, there was an older couple, both with walkers leading the group. I noticed the older gentleman was wearing some sort of veterans hat, and we discussed if he might be a WWII vet.

When I went to piss, he had taken his hat off, and set it on the table, and it clearly said, "WWII Veteran."

When we were getting ready to leave, I told my friends I was going to talk to him.

They were eating, and I excused myself for interrupting them, and explained that I only wanted to thank him for his service.

Everyone in the group was very happy for what I was doing, and it almost brought tears to my eyes speaking with him.

I have no idea how old he was, war was 1939-1945............if he was 18 in 1945, he is 96 today,
probably older than that.

There aren't many of them left, if you get a chance, thank them.......

2A ALERT: Biden to announce creation of executive level gun control office on Friday Sep. 22, 2023.

Main themes: Universal background checks to be forced onto ALL gun sales, both vendor and private. ATF redefining rules to make private sellers, including those who are just selling one or a few guns out of their collections, also subject to ensure that purchasers get background checks.


----------
----------
President Joe Biden will announce the Office of Gun Violence Prevention on Friday and the new office will be coordinated with Mike Bloomberg gun control proponents and others.

According to the Washington Post, “The new office will report up through Stefanie Feldman, the White House staff secretary and a longtime Biden policy aide who has worked on the firearms issue for years.”

Coordination in the office is expected between the “White House, the Community Justice Action Fund and Everytown for Gun Safety.”

Shannon Watts, a Mike Bloomberg affiliate who founded Moms Demand Action, praised the creation of the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, saying, “If this announcement is, in fact, the creation of a single point of leadership on gun violence in the administration, it’s a very big deal for the movement.”

She added, “A governmental focal point dedicated to creating a framework for overseeing national policy, research and resources would be more than symbolic — it would be a significant turning point for the movement.”

On August 31, 2023, Breitbart News reported that Biden’s ATF was using executive rule to expand background checks to the point of nearly being universal.

In a press release that accompanied the announcement of the proposed rule, Attorney General Merrick Garland said:

“The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was passed by Congress to reduce gun violence, including by expanding the background checks that keep guns out of the hands of criminals. This proposed rule implements Congress’s mandate to expand the definition of who must obtain a license and conduct a background check before selling firearms.”

The ATF’s rule will redefine language so that there is not simply a category of Americans buying and selling guns from and to one another — as they have done since 1791 — and a category of Federal Firearms Licensed holders (FFLs) selling guns at retail. Rather, every seller will have to prove he is not trying to make a profit, or he will be required to ensure the purchaser undergoes a background check before taking possession of the firearm.

Are the fast twist barrels a thing of the past?

My first precision 22lr rifle was built by Ga Precision back in 2020. Had Mullerworks send them a 24” mtu blank in 1:12 twist. He was recommending 1:13 but i wanted 1:12. They got one done for me and sent to gap to be built on rimx action. Gap built full blown custom rifle that is a work of art. It never performed very well at 50 yards. Shoots most ammo between .3 and .4. Shoots around 1-1.25 at 100. But it out shoots all my other builds at distance. It shines at 250 and out. Just wonder if anyone else has shared same experience.

Help with 30 Cal. Can

Thanks for the help all. I need some help picking a new can. I have a Nomad L and love it, but it is heavy. At the time of purchase in 2021 I was seriously considering the Nomad LT, but was scared of titanium. I now want a smaller, lighter can and have boiled the decision down to:

Stainless:

  1. Nomad 30 - if you would have asked me 12 months ago, this is what I would have purchased and sort of compared everything to
  2. Enticer S - Seems to be a great can at a great price, but don't love that it appears to be not as tough as the nomad based on firing schedules and barrel minimums
Titanium: I am not a huge mag dump guy, but still somewhat fearful of limitations in the future for classes, etc.

  1. Nomad Ti
  2. New Silencerco Scythe - Being all titanium, I am a bit scared of how it will hold up
  3. Enticer S Ti

I suppose first I need to decide what material I want then decide on a can.

If titanium, which one will be the most rugged? I am planning on using the can on a 18" .308 an 8" 300 Blk and various full length 556

I definitely chase decibels (hints the Nomad Lt purchase), but now want something that performs well that is shorter and lighter.
