    Gunsmithing Can I bed this way for a stress free bedding?

    I used some of the contoured pillars for a Remington 700 in a laminated stock. I did a two step process by first installing the pillars and letting them set up. I then bedded the action normally using Steel Bed. The pillars I used matched the action perfectly. I only had to cut them to length to...

    Running the MWS suppressed

    Be sure you get the correct buffer and spring. I mistakenly ordered the wrong x-heavy version the first time around and had to sell it on here as Slash would not take it back since I had run it. Call him and tell him explicitly what rifle and stock that you need it for.

    Running the MWS suppressed

    I ended up putting one of Slash's ex-heavy buffers and rifle length spring in mine and it runs like a champ when suppressed or un-suppressed. With the stock buffer and spring it would lock the bolt back on 2 out of 5 rds. As a side benefit it made the recoil a little softer. When stock the bolt...

    Which phone OS? IOS or Andriod for ballistic calculators

    I have run Strelok and Shooter on both my previous Casio Commando and my new model Commando. Both are rugged water resistant phones. I have the extended battery on the new one and it will run better than 48 hrs. on a charge with limited internet use.

    AR-COMP powder for subsonic .223?

    I load a 69 gr. SMK over Trailboss and it runs 1040 - 1050 fps. Trailboss is real "fluffy" and fills the case nicely. Agreed that the 5.56 subs are only a tad bit more potent that .22 LR. but the fun factor is there when shooting suppressed.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns In the car pistol carry options.

    Commander or Officers .45 in a IWB at 4:00 at all times. A S&W Compact 9mm DAO (police trade in) with two full mags rides in the center console of my truck 24/7. I live in a rural area and no kids in my truck so I don't worry about theft or others accessing the 9mm so much. Much easier and...

    Suppressors Supressed Ruger 22 pistols

    My SRT Comanche is not sealed. The front endcap unscrews and comes with the spanner wrench to remove it. The Comanche is rated for .17 HMR and has stainless baffles. The rest of SRT's cans are sealed units.

    Suppressors Supressed Ruger 22 pistols

    My SRT Comanche sounds about the same as my Sparrow. The FRP is about the same, maybe a little less. The Comanche is a can that can be disassembled where you can clean the individual stainless baffles. The Sparrow is much easier to clean though. I put a thin coat of anti-seize on the internals...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Question for you Glock guys

    Get rid of the cheapo plastic sights which and replace with quality metal ones. The plastic ones work but with any hard use the front one will shear off.

    For Those Of You With Snakes & Small Children

    Terrible news. At my previous residence I had a neighbor that had two pythons, one was 16' and the other was 14'. He would let them out to sun in his back yard. I told him in no uncertain words that if they were ever on my property that I would make sure to run the tractor and bushog over them...
