    Suppressors ATF41P Delayed?

    My local class 3 dealer is a member of some FFL lawyers group and they were told around March 2015 at the earliest. I've personally given myself a deadline of August for form 3 transfers and October for form 1 and 4's. This would allow all snail mailed forms to be at least pending (as I'm...

    Suppressors hi m im new member . question on the spectre 2

    I'm personally going to use a M&P 22 once mine gets out if jail. I daily carry M&P pistols so it only makes sense to keep the manual of arms/geometry exactly the same.

    Suppressors Electronic Form 4 Wait Times

    Paper forms are catching up. My socom762-rc went pending Nov. 9th and arrived at dealer 5/2. A little over 6.5 months. It will be interesting to see where the trend levels off at. I've only e-filed one item (still pending), but if the wait isn't much longer I'm probably go back to paper...

    Suppressors .30 cal, titanium, and QD............ Go!

    Surefire socom762-rc. -Best QD system out there. -Good up to 300 RUM -Smallest POI of any QD can -can handle heavy Semi-Auto firing schedules -not the quietest and most expensive..... but has less blowback them most cans.

    Suppressors Scar 17 / Socom 762 RC

    If your running unsuppressed 50% or more I would recommend flash hider. If you plan on running 50/50 or more suppressed run a muzzle brake for the added benefit (even if small) of the sacrifical blast baffle the brake provides.

    Suppressors Surefire 7.62 SOCOM on 556

    I'm not sure what the bore difference is. Maybe Garin or Chucky can shed some light. My guess is it's closer to 6.8.

    Suppressors Surefire 7.62 SOCOM on 556

    That would be much appreciated. I don't shoot a lot of 5.56, so I'm on the fence about a dedicated can. But did want something shorter then just using the 762-rc to run on a 11.5" BCM upper.

    Suppressors Surefire 7.62 SOCOM on 556

    Kinda hard to discern a difference between the 762-rc and 5.56-rc. Did you notice one in person? Also, Have you had a chance to shoot the 762-mini?

    Suppressors Surefire 7.62 SOCOM on 556

    I asked Garin about this a couple weeks ago: socom762-mini vs. Socom556-rc. He made it pretty clear that the sound difference would be pretty substantial on a MK18 (which I was asking about). On a LPR it may be less of a difference, and if you were thinking about using the 762-rc then check...

    Suppressors Decisions, decisions, decisions, Help please..

    I went with TB 338BA for my magnum can as it gives you the best of both worlds. It's a thread on, but with their brakes it allows you to have different rifles with odd threadings (AI, KAC, DTA etc.)

    Suppressors Decisions, decisions, decisions, Help please..

    I'm a Surefire fan boi. But based on your needs, I would go Thunder beast. I don't feel they are overpriced for what you get. -minimal POI shift -arguably the best QD system -less blow back then competitors -rated for 300 WM, high rates of fire -great customer service Silencerco also makes...

    Suppressors Eforms system taken down

    Maybe Anonymous can hack the ATF website, fix their problems and actually make it run smooth and efficient..... I have 2 cans waiting at Silencershop for form 3's...... I know as soon as I tell them to do the transfer via paper the website will be back up.

    Suppressors QD suppressor brake vs flash hider effectiveness question

    The only sound difference in my opinion is the ping that was already suggested (AAC's are infamous for this... And rather annoying IMHO). I personally run brakes on all my hosts (unless it will rarely see a can), I do this for the perceived sacrificial blast blast baffle argument.

    Suppressors Combo .338 and 300WM suppressor.

    Thunder beast 338BA for me! I don't have a 338 yet, but didn't want to run my 762-rc can on my 300 RUM (even though it is rated for it). I plan on running the 338BA on a 26" 260 Rem, 300 RUM, and eventual 338. On my 20" 308 I'll run my 762-rc

    Suppressors Are these damaged baffles? SF-SOCOM762 on a Seekins 300 Blackout 16" barrel

    That's some awesome CS right there. Can't wait to get my SF cans out of jail. Garin, any recommendations for others to prevent this? Does surefire have a preferred method for checking alignment? I usually just look down the bore end and eye ball it, but some rifles (M25, 18.5" barrel...

    Accuracy International AX338MC to 260 Remington: is this possible?

    This is what I figured, I just didn't want to assume anything. I was pretty confident there would be a high enough demand for a third party to make barrels, I just haven't heard anything official that AI would be making 260 barrels for the AXMC long action platform. Since 338 is a caliber I...

    Accuracy International AX338MC to 260 Remington: is this possible?

    I'm sorry ahead of time, I'm sure this has been covered but my "Google fu" spent the last hour trying to get a concrete answer. We know that: AX338MC can shoot: 338, 300, and 308 AX308MC can shoot: 308, 260, 6.5, 243 etc. However, can I go from the AI AX338MC and shoot 260 remington...

    Suppressors suppressor for 338LM

    I know Surefire made a titanium socom 338 suppressor for a military contact, but I don't think they are selling them to the public. That leaves you with Surefire's legacy 338 suppressor, which I don't know of any retailer that currently has one in stock. IIRC, It is also an over the barrel...
