    Suppressors Hearing Protection Act.

    H.R. 3668 (SHAPE act) with a watered down version of HPA (no refund of past tax stamp money) is out of committee and will be voted on in the House next week. The real issue is the Senate where it may never even get to come up for a debate, let alone a vote...

    The point method works fairly well. And once you find one that fits you, take the stock measurements and use that as your guide. But simply because a gun "fits' doesn't mean it will shoot where you look...barrel regulation then takes a role. So with that concept, each gun is of itself unique...

    Have him fit you first, then look at guns.....if it doesn't fit, you won't be able to shoot it well (hell you might not even be able to hit much at all). These are not production semi-autos, you need them to fit so that they will shoot where you are looking. Too many people go buy themselves a...

    Spanish guns are the way to go. You will have to get them choked, but that will only set you back a couple hundred. for example: http://www.gunbroker.com/item/700130178 Or the beretta 470 (FC) or 471 (screw in chokes) are real values but might be a little higher than you want...

    WTF they checking your paperwork for? Fed law makes it clear that only an ATF agent can check a tax stamp. Does your local range make you provide your 1040 too. It would be GFYS response if they asked me. How the hell is a range responsible if an individual has an illegal weapon? They aren't...

    Suppressors ATF just called me!

    Time line is doubtfully the same. They have changed the process now, by sending all forms through a pre-screening to ensure that it is correct, then they send it on to the other steps like the FBI. Previous it went to an examiner, who screened for errors then corrected errors and kept things in...
