    Sidearms & Scatterguns Handguns...show 'em

    That’s where my son likes them and it works fine. I prefer them a back a bit but it works good enough and gets him to come shooting so win. I am sure someone will tell me why it is stupid to put them there.

    Looking for information about a 22LR suppressor

    A 223 suppressor will be much heavier and bigger than almost every 22LR can. I have 5 Rimfire cans they are all very similar. My favorite pistol Rimfire is the CAT BEN. My favorite rifle Rimfire is the HUX Flow 22.

    Saturday with my Son breaking in the new Beretta Ultimate Patrol. Ran like a champ with 00 buck, slugs and #2 shot defender loads. Extra points for gratuitous AR porn?😂

    Shouldered barrel AR15?

    I believe it was an attempt to create a fast easy way for “un-Skilled” maintenance teams to easily change barrels. Remove hand guards, unscrew the barrel nut knock out barrel, insert new one, install barrel nut “tighten”, install hand guard, done. The only thing other than bending a gas tube is...

    Exactly, I was offered a 308 barrel and a 45-70 barrel and passed. There was a “Smith” close to school that would re-chamber a barrel in any of the native bullet diameters. I also wanted one of the 221 fireball Remington bolt action pistols, but alas this was not meant to be.

    They made some insane barrels back then that I was scared to shoot. I had the original wood grips and a couple dozen 30-30 rounds was really hard on my hand! I know there were some frames that failed.

    You are righ You are probably correct I just checked the options at the custom barrel site I was looking at and the Creed is not there, could have sworn it was.

    Yeah my college contender had a Burris, but that was 45+ years ago. Yeah back then I was shooting saboted 22 bullets out the 30-30 at Rabits and ground squirrels.

    Thinking about 22 center fire Contender. I had a 6” 30-30 while I was in college in the dark ages, Stupidly sold to buy some luxury items ( top Ramen). Thinking 223 rem or 22 Creedmoor in a 10” bill. Not sure what scope is the best anymore.

    Wow, that was one of the best history lessons I have read in years. Not sure how but that should be preserved! Thank you Frank!

    Being here on the Hide proves the same for the rest of us :LOL:

    Yeah that was told to me and likely told to the person who told me and so forth. It is how folk lore becomes legend 😆

    With that knowledge I would also recommend the 11.25. All my shooting uses 169 and 175 grain bullets. The 11.25 is perfect for those loads. If you ever go bigger the 10 will cover you, but the 11.25 is a tried and true 308 twist.

    Why Anschutz Resale value so poor? (at least in the US)

    First, Welcome to the rabbit hole, Second outside of Cool stuff lust, what would you be doing with one? The reason for the low resale is that the market is so limited. Most people are plinkers, small game shooters or collectors. I have a 1712, a couple of 54:18s, and a 1727F AI. I also have a an...

    Opinions on Current Lineup of 5.56 Suppressors

    It Was not as quiet as the Velos or a CAT. If you were to go with a Hux the Flow 556 Ti is fairly impressive but it comes with the need to use their proprietary muzzle device.

    Opinions on Current Lineup of 5.56 Suppressors

    I have one and honestly it!s one of two I regret buying. The Velos LBP is a much better can!
