Re: Should I put lube on suppressor adapter threads? Dissimilar metals? I would use anti-seize! Those 1/2 X 20 threads are easy to start wrong.

Re: first time out with eco9 Couldn't that cleaning tool also be used as a loading tool for grease? If the holes/Ports were spaced at the same distance as the baffles? With a grease Zerk on the knurled end, just a few pumps and you'd have your baffles loaded! -Rick

Re: online gunsmithing school I went to the Colorado school of trades(Gunsmithing) in Lakewood, CO and think that is the only way you can learn gunsmithing. I have five 2" binders full of notes!!! Stuff you won't learn from some online course. I apprenticed for three years at Wisner's Gun...

I have been looking through them online, the more professional(Not the PVC Crap) and was wonering if any of you have opinions on which is the best one? I am a Machinist by trade some making them isn't the problem. Thanks, Rick

Re: SBR if suppressor is Tig'd? So refresh my memory. What was the $5.00 stamp for?

Re: SBR if suppressor is Tig'd? Guys, Isn't an SBR a AOW(Any other Weapon)? And a $5 Stamp? Like a short barrel Shotgun I used to own when I lived in USofA. Had a 7" Serbu!

Re: free float on an ADL Every gun is different. If it is a hunting rifle and you only take one shot and it shoots to the same place every time from a cold bore, don't mess with it!

Re: Recommend a good gunsmith? Wisner's up in Chehalis, WA is really good!

Re: Recoil with brake vs can+brake? Just an idea, but what if you had a Sionics type suppressor that has a huge expansion chamber where the muzzle brake is. Wouldn't that allow the muzzle brake to do its job and the suppressor to do its job also? Just thinking out loud.

Re: Exit hole on .22 can? It is a .22 CO2 air rifle, so no restrictions where I live. I will make a new end cap to quite it down. The pellets ar only travelling 1000fps. Thanks Guys!
