    Suppressors I have some Forms now.

    I care my "Copies" of my form 1 and 4s with my rifles. I am 31 years old now and was wandering what is the best way to preserve my original forms in the safe.

    7.62x39 AR platform

    Re: 7.62x39 AR platform Well FYI I built mine to shoot the cheapest ammo I could get my hands on, something like 2.99 a box of 20 down here. it is surprisingly accurate for a 7.62x39 out of the ar platform. I know there is a P mag in my pic but it is just for show.

    Re: Mauser 98 30-06 sporter Well, so no one responded just FYI, this rifle had both the Go and NOGO gauges close in the bolt. But, this is a heavily fired rifle and has never done us wrong. I ordered the bolt i posted above and it was perfect, the go gauge closes and the no go gauge does not...

    .223 subsonic

    I agree that for an ar15 it is stupid to even try this. that being said I really would like to develop some 69 gn .223 bullets to shoot subsonic through my .223 bolt action rifle just for shooting paper. Who as been there and done that?
