    Suppressors Colorado question on tax stamp/background check $10

    Used to be a cop, and I keep track of this subject as a journalist. It's way better since the shall issue law came in, but you still can't own an "assault weapon" if you're a resident of Denver County or the City of Denver. Our idiot Supreme Court decided that "home rule status" trumps the...

    Suppressors Colorado question on tax stamp/background check $10

    Well, yes, there is that...but Flagstaff, Sedona and the like, up where the country is really pretty is so damned expensive these days.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Good for you...how did that go over with them? They can just show up unannounced I think. I wonder if you can tell them to piss off, you're busy if they don't have a search warrant? Probably not the most politic thing to do, but just desserts for sure.

    Suppressors AAC 338 Titan Ti on a 6mm

    Anxious to hear about your results as I've got a .338 AAC Titan QD waiting on the feds. I'm going to use it on all my .30 cal stuff from .338 down to 6.8 SPC and .308. If you've got an iPhone, they make a decibel meter app for it that might give you some hard data. I should have gotten my .223...

    Suppressors Colorado question on tax stamp/background check $10

    Too fricking hot in the summer. Nice in the winter though. I'm thinking of Snowbirding it to get some trigger time this winter.

    Suppressors Colorado question on tax stamp/background check $10

    The answer is yes, you are required to get a background check. Colorado statutes define a "firearm" for the purposes of the background check requirement by reference to 18 U.S.C. § 921 (a) (3) (C), which classifies "silencers" as "firearms" in federal law. "CRS 24-33.5-424. National...

    Night Vision Mod Armorys 308 pvs-14rc

    It's a joke...Go see "Despicable Me" and "Despicable Me 2". Then you'll get it.

    Night Vision Best bang for your buck in thermal imaging optics?

    I concur. I have one myself. Although it's larger than the newer units, it's an incredible value at $8000. And it's a genuine military-issue unit with all the toughness that goes with that.

    An FYI on Bruno's Shooter Supply

    Why don't you and the OP get together privately, where he can hire you as his factor to collect the debt...for a small fee.

    Expensive bubble level Unecessary

    Go to the App Store and download "Clinometer" It's worth having on the phone anyway. I use it to level my trailer when I'm camping all the time. Just balance it on your elevation dial cap and adjust till the bubble level reads zero and tighten.

    Kifaru Shelter and Stove

    I like them except for the fact that they do not come with an attached waterproof ground cloth. If you're winter camping you're going to need some kind of ground cloth to keep things dry. I think they sell them too. I've met the owner, Patrick, several times and attended one of his...

    Suppressors Suppress a pellet rifle ?

    If the device can be used on a firearm to reduce the sound level, it's an NFA item. This question was posed to the BATFE regarding "silencers" for paintball guns. The BATFE took one of the detachable style paint ball silencers and fired a .22 through it and got a 7 dB noise reduction, and...

    Night Vision Mod Armorys 308 pvs-14rc

    Thanks for pointing this out Frank, it's worth remembering. Only government can engage in censorship. Private companies are engaging in marketing and customer service. The First Amendment protects the right to free speech, but it also protects the right of the Press to publish or not publish...

    Night Vision Mod Armorys 308 pvs-14rc

    And if you have a dedicated hog-gun you use at night, just mount your scope/sight far enough forward that it'll give you proper comfortable cheek-weld with the 14 on the gun.

    Night Vision Mod Armorys 308 pvs-14rc

    I've been using mine for a week and a half now on my night conditioning hikes in the mountains 3 times a week. I'm trying to get fit for elk season and I like walking at night when it's cool and I can be alone, and with the dual-tube system it's even more fun, I get to sneak up on deer all the...

    Rifle Scopes "STOLEN" Schmidt & Bender M8541 scopes on eBay ... not so "STOLEN"

    It's just like "stolen" Vectronix Vector 21s, many of them are, but there are a number that made it into the civilian market legally. I heard that a shipment was lost and the insurance carrier paid for it, then it was found, and since it belonged to the insurance carrier by law, they were able...

    Anybody use Etymotic Earplugs?

    Yes, I bought a pair just recently and I'm pleased as punch with them. I got the LE Blast version. Evidently I've lost significant hearing because when I put them in boost mode it sounds perfectly normal to me. The stereo audio is great, and getting the right tips is crucial. I'm using the...

    will leaving optic in car hurt it?

    It can get over 175 degrees in some cars on a hot day. I'd be concerned that the glue used to stick lens elements together might break down either all at once or by degrees. I'd think a "car scope" ought to be a relatively cheap one so that if it gets damaged or stolen...or scratched, you...

    Rifle Scopes Stuck Windage Turret on USO scope.

    Took the scope completely off the gun and out of the rings. No joy. Guess I'll box it up and send it off. Didn't want to wait that long if there was a simple fix, but thanks.
