    Suppressors and Gas Guns! My 2cents

    Re: Suppressors and Gas Guns! My 2cents Agree completely and would add a few more: 1. Reflex designs in this application can insulate the most sensitive part of the barrel causing additional heat load and increase stringing. 2. Condensation from the can has been known to make it all the...

    Suppressors Suppressor superiority?

    Re: Suppressor superiority? Carter, we are not measuring this phenomenon by resulting POI on the target, but rather the measured velocity out the barrel. In other words, barrel harmonic shifts occur at the same relative velocity, whereas boost is a measurable event as represented by the...

    Suppressors texas rattler 308 suppressor

    Re: texas rattler 308 suppressor Thanks for pointing us to another maker. This one is new to me. So....one can weighs 29oz and the other 16oz. Huge difference! One can is made out of stainless steel and the other titanium. One can is a monolith core, the other fully fashioned and welded...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Custom Fighter Prototype knife *PICS*

    Re: Custom Fighter Prototype knife *PICS* Handsome work, nicely executed, great price... I do not know what had happened where makers are confusing the purposefulness of these designs. This is a drop point and as such is mismatched to the intended role. I have reworked the grinds here to...

    Suppressors AR-15 Action Clatter

    Re: AR-15 Action Clatter The can is over gassing the action. All cans are not made the same and some cans made for bolts will create large enough back pressure to create havoc. IF the designer has speced the unit for a bolt gun he can increase the diverter/primary pressures considerably. In...

    Re: Suppressor superiority? 1. As it stands. 2. Yes you did misunderstand his question. 3. Now you know. 4. Yes, your can does, welcome to the smallest of minorities. 5. I rest my case. You have bolded Zero Shift, now come to understand what it means in the context of your own quote. 6. 40+...

    Suppressors Suppressor superiority?

    Re: Suppressor superiority? Lets try and be civil here. 1. It is not debatable, its physics. 2. OP states "Does a SP scrape away gasses for a cleaner "break" like a muzzle break?" You state "not if it would do so more than a particular break." I give him a link to the physics of both. Read...

    Night Vision Battery Care and feeding for NV....

    Re: Battery Care and feeding for NV.... As with all aluminum housings covers with threads, yours is a common concern. The common concern is that the battery springs that need to be compressed when closing the housing door with batteries in place provides the perfect opportunity to mis-align...

    Re: New Custom *Prototype* Knife! Thoughts... That design is best suited for food preparation. It would be great for slow work that requires light probing and tip slicing. It would not be a design for heavy cutting requiring great force. I would be poor for hard penetration jabs and not a...

    Suppressors and accuracy loss with a rimfire

    Re: Suppressors and accuracy loss with a rimfire I thought that for a very long time. In part it is true, there is really very poor ammo, fair ammo and good ammo for .22s. But, to a very real degree I found that what I thought was the good ammo wasn't always good all the time, not always...
