    Suppressors What fits my needs for a 22lr can?

    I have several cans now but the one thing that has bothered me is my first can, a 22lr cascade monocore, is a pain in the arse to clean/service. Haven't seen many 22 cans first hand so don't know who makes something that can meet my needs. I shoot 22lr by the case through my 22's to the...

    Suppressors I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can

    Re: I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can No nightvision is below a small truck on my list of things to get. If I was staying over here longer I would already be looking for NVG's to run but as it sits I have grown sick and tired of talking to uneducated Muslims insisting their...

    Gunsmithing Barrel Crown Cutter/ got it cut &crowned

    Re: Barrel Crown Cutter Anything you put into the barrel has a chance of scratching the barrel. However you are doing this on a factory barrel so it wouldn't really do any damage that I don't doubt is already there from machining marks anyway. I would however first compare the price of...

    Suppressors I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can

    Re: I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can So back from R&R and had an absolute blast shooting with my new can. I first bought a new 16" 300blackout upper to try it on and was blown away how pleasant it was to shoot that. Then onto the 556 and 6.5 grendel uppers. On the 6.5...

    Daniel defense before chf barrels?

    Re: Daniel defense before chf barrels? Looks like a bit of carbon build up on the crown is all. I just bought a DD barrel and it shoots amazing. At fifty yards I could shoot 12 groups of 5 with my surefire 60rounder and red dot that all went into an inch. This was sustained rate of fire...

    Southwest ammunition

    So on the posts that I read about this company here I decided to order some ammo to try in my rifles while I was home on R&R in September. I placed my order on the 2nd of September knowing that I had placed it kind of late to receive my ammunition on time but was ecstatic to see the email...

    Gunsmithing Not all machinists can be gunsmiths.

    Re: Not all machinists can be gunsmiths. This isn't as bad as the maintenance unit soldiers deployed to my base that came in complaining about malfunctioning aimpoints. All mounted backwards except for a single soldier. I asked him why he wanted to be different in the most serious tone I...

    White Oaks Barrel and I can't reload very well...

    Re: White Oaks Barrel and I can't reload very well... I use range pick up but I sort it all into batches by headstamp. If any in a same batch have different head stamps say hornady tap from another hornday line with different markings then it goes separate. I however have space to store the...

    Sage ebr ??

    Re: Sage ebr ?? No mods required as long as it has a factory barrel in it. And depending on the condition of the stock will dictate the price. If it is really beat up I wouldn't pay but 450 for it. If it is in almost like new shape then I would pay up to 650 as my upper limit. I just got...

    Gunsmithing Over/Under really hard to break. Please help!

    Re: Over/Under really hard to break. Please help! A big cause of this is excess pressure. Just like a rifle too much pressure can seize up the action of the firearm. If it happens consistently I would have a good shotgun smith check to make sure there isn't excess wear and tear on the hing...

    Rifle?? 6.5-338 Lapua

    Re: Rifle?? 6.5-338 Lapua It would be much easier to run a 6.5 RUM as the brass is easier to neck down for starters and you would have less inclination to use a larger action than just the standard 700LA. Plus you would need one hell of a barrel to get it up to those velocities without...

    Re: Hydraulic buffer in GAP-10 I use mine when I mount my 6.5 grendel upper on my carbine lower to keep it from beating up the lower. It works fine for what it is.
