    Suppressors OpsInc v Gemtech accuracy?

    I have found the bi lock mount repeatable and accurate for gemtech The One... Bi lock mount is also very secure. Two types of people with ratchet mounts.. Those who have launched a can and those who will.

    Suppressors What is the quietest 9mm handgun suppressor you know of?

    There is much wisdom in this statement. I have gone this route with my rifles and will say that for pistol it may be the way to go too.

    Suppressors What is the quietest 9mm handgun suppressor you know of?

    Quietest suppressor is like asking the "Best pair of skivvies" Each has their own preference, each accomplish the persons needs and desires and people will rarely agree on what is the best or in your case, the quietest. Usually you are dealing with 1-3 dB difference, which is negligible when...

    Trusts are taking longer and have for the last year. Still a backlog of trusts with errors they have to clear pre 41f. Post 41f the trust is reviewed and then all of the folks on the trust need background checks. A more involved process

    There is a saying in the silencer business about most QD mounts (especially the screw on or ratchet mounts: Two types of people.....those who have launched their cans and those who will. Tough break, no fun is right.

    BOTACH up to Old Tricks - Caught Selling Fake HOG Saddles

    My error, I mistakenly thought somebody else posted the thread. You have done nothing actionable. I have no doubt Hog Saddle is telling the truth. As a fellow Marine, far be it for me to question their integrity.

    Tripod help for newbie

    Price is only irrelevant if you have unlimited funds. Most (at least the OP and I) don't have what seems to be your unlimited funds. Is there $300 of stability difference between the two........I think not....but then again I am not competing, shooting on the battlefield, stretching my shots...

    It would appear 18" would be perfect, especially if you mount a can on it as you may gain a few FPS back. I had a Ruger 77/17 hmr target version with the heavy barrel with a 24" barrel and a ruger 77/17 hmr light profile barrel that I had cut to 20" and threaded for a Gemtech GM-22. The light...
