Is this the Final Tap

They did play Cincinatti in 1992... Part of their 'reunion' and an album tour, IIRC.

Didn't think they did any 'tours' before the movie came out in '84. But did do some TV comedy shows and small gigs as they were refining their act. So it could have been either!

They were a bit like the Blues Brothers... a skit done by Aykroyd and Belushi that just turned into a phenomena. IIRC, in 1978 or so, Belushi was the star of the number 1 TV show in America (SNL); the number 1 movie in America (Animal House); and the number 1 Album in America (Briefcase full of Blues.) The Blues Brothers were much bigger than Spinal Tap!!! But also helped inspire the "Mockumentary."

Might have been then, it was at Riverbend. Did the cucumber bit

Suppressor with a brake on it, does it help or not?

Just put a few shots through my RXD30Ti in the driveway with a 24” 6.5x47. It has a built in E-brake (or similar) on the end. It was hard to tell definitely from shooting off the tripod into a log nearby if the ports reduced the recoil much over two other cans I took outside to test against (Nomad TiXC and Dominus). Perhaps it was a little softer shooting but nothing earth shattering. Probably not the best cartridge to test this stuff with though, as the 6.5 with 123’s is very mild on recoil.

Then I shot the RXD30 free hand, followed by a few shots with the RecoilX gen 1 screwed on. Couldn’t tell much difference in recoil between the two, so maybe the ports are helping more than I gave them credit for. I definitely noticed the difference the Recoil X made on the TiXC.

Anyway, ports or not, the RXD30 is a great sounding can with a nice low tone. Glad I got it.

FN SPR A5M XP?

I sold my 20” A5M for about $2250 a few months back on here, but that was with a friggin’ boatload of mags (like seven 10rnd mags that are almost unobtanium now, and five 5rnd mags).

I’d offer $1800 or so at most, if you really wanted it. They’re absolutely solid guns and usually great shooters, but the 10rnd mags are getting very hard to find for them so you’d be limited there.

If you’ve got money to burn and have always wanted one, start at $1650. Show them my thread if you want with all it came with and how much sold for and see what they say. You won’t regret owning one if you have a use case for it!
