    Suppressors When its over?

    I can understand the point of view from an investment aspect. I could be getting a return on the money invested in a suppressor rather than it disappearing into the Federal pit of despair.... I use to have that same point of view. I've let my childish side take over lately though. Screw the...

    Gunsmithing Release Agent for bedding

    Another vote for the Brownell's release agent here. I've used Kiwi and it worked.... It wasn't pretty and was a lot harder to work with (messier), but it worked. If you do use Kiwi and looks are important to you, use a color that will match the bedding compound. I've had the color of Kiwi...

    Gunsmithing Setting up a savage 10p to be a takedown rifle

    I'm looking forward to your progress. I've assembled a nice little barrel collection over the years and have planned to build something very similar to your description. I'm going to try silver-soldering the barrel nut and mark the nut, barrel, and action with witness marks to try and keep the...

    Suppressors Any fault with the AAC Cyclone?

    The only regret I have about my Cyclone is that I only bought one.

    Suppressors SWR Spectre II - Update

    If my current threads are not too long, would it be worth the time to turn down the first .159 (give or take depending on overall dimension) threads to the .440 spec or will the O-ring work well enough on the face of the muzzle? If it isn't necessary, how long would the threads need to be to...

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

    Lay a sheet of sand paper/emery cloth on the action and sand the pillars to the correct contour.

    Gunsmithing Gunsmiths - What brand caliper do you use?

    To those of you who have tested the performance of calipers, did you find that the Chinese junk was reliable as far as repeatability is concerned? For 90% of my uses, it doesn't really matter if the true dimensions match the reading on the caliper. All that matters to me is that the caliper...

    Johnny Football gets the Heisman

    Looks like it was more of the same ol' same ol'. The fans are amazed by Mr. Football's ability to throw to the Jolly Green Giant that is covered by a Keebler Elf. Then it's just a testament to his ability when he slings the ball into the air and hopes that it lands in his receivers' arms. It...

    10/22 takedown suggestions/reviews?

    Has anyone seen one of these cut down to about a 10" barrel with a suppressor? That's what I've got in mind. The integral would probably be ideal, but I can't see spending that much and only having a suppressor for one rifle.

    cmmg drop in 22 conversion

    I have had one for a few years now. I've never seen any reason to modify the charging handle or use the "special" one. I'm not exactly sure what you are saying the fill plug does, but my CMMG conversion hasn't come up short in any way whatsoever. I don't see any need to change anything about the...

    CTS case Trimmer review.... FAST!

    I love my CTS trimmers, but if you don't chamfer you'll end up with lighter bullets....

    Johnny Football gets the Heisman

    Winning the Heisman just might have been the beginning of the end of Mr. Football's college career. He sure knows how to take something for granted.

    Effective Immediately, No Politics Period !

    You fuckers crack me up!!! In a thread that threatens capital punishment for political talk, there are people running for office! Then there is the usual lack of follow up on those threats for humor's sake...... Since it would be in poor taste for me to come in and kick this horse without...

    HOMETOWN HOTTIE! Maxim!

    I only vote for the ones that have been nekkid under my roof. Send her down here and she's got my vote. Otherwise it goes to Stacie :D I don't know the rules of that, but Stacie has half a dozen entries.... Might want to tell Jenny that she can enter multiple times (assuming it won't get her DQ'ed).

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Just called them for the first time. My check was cashed sometime in the first week of November. The guy on the phone said it should be approved in another 30 days or so and that they allow for another 30 days for delivery. I feel sorry for the guys that mailed forms in after December.....
