That's because, in this particular case, the "internal" part isn't a suppressor part. The outside tube is what ATF considers the "silencer" (using the ATF term, everyone take it easy). I looked at this at SHOT and didn't "get it" until I saw it in person.

This one will be reaching back for some of you but I remember it like it was yesterday. Look up the After Action Report on the famous FBI Miami shootout. One of the agents did as described and had the gun tucked under his leg. In the ensuing collision, the gun flew into the floorboard and...

Not arguing here since I don't know if there is an actual answer but... Would it matter if you had your lower engraved and it didn't get approved? Wouldn't you just end up with a receiver that had your name and city/state of residence? The engraving doesn't change the status of the receiver...

My suggestion (take internet legal advice for what you pay for it) would be based on what I know from several Crim Defense attorney's I work with have done. Specifically an instance where a prominent local businessman with a roomfull of very, very expensive hunting shotguns took a federal tax...

Actually that's not entirely accurate (although it is what most folks in the criminal justice system will tell you is the best/safest route), in instances in which a Prohibited Person resides in a residence with the lawful owner of firearms - generally a spouse or roommate - the firearm...

Re: LightWeight Optic-update to OP Update to OP

I am working on a project to build a LIGHT WEIGHT 7.62 gas gun. Emphasis on the weight as in trying to shave every ounce possible off of the weapon. That being said, I have just started looking into the optic and am interested in any suggestions anyone might offer. This is envisioned as a 600...

Re: LBT Geronimo pack I have a bunch of stuff made by them and have found LBT gear is overbuilt as a rule. Meaning it is heavy and durable. I wouldn't want to hump one of their packs for distance but think it would be ideal for match use. LBT gear is pricey and has a lifetime warranty. If...

Re: Tactial slings Yes. I have heard of a hasty sling and am old enough to have been issued an old school GI strap sling. That being said, the OP was quite clear about what he wanted and (your preferences aside) the strap ain't gonna cut it. We can go all Apocalypse Now style and 550 a strap...

Re: Tactial slings Oh, and please don't call the sling "Tactical", the violence commission will decide it is dangerous and legislate it out of production. I can't afford $300 slings. Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Re: Tactial slings I have to disagree with the last poster. The bottom mount GI sling has no utility beyond shoulder carrying your weapon in garrison. I think his issue may be with the 3 point slings that can interfere with vest/chest worn equipment. The modern two points (+1 to Blue Force...

Re: Gloves Those are definitely Hatch Operators in the photo (or a knock off of same). I was issued several sets of those back in the day. One pair was really good, one pair fell apart and one pair literally had the thumbs sewn shut and seams on the fingers not sewn at all when I opened the...

Re: INTRAstate move of NFA items What was your turn around time like? Did you mail or fax?

Re: INTRAstate move of NFA items Excellent answer. I missed that on the form. Thank you very much. Wonder why the Specialist couldn't cite that? BTW, she tried to instruct me to use a 5320.20 and was confounded when I asked why I was using an Interstate form for an Intrastate transaction...

So I am going to be moving within state (intra and not inter) to a new city. I have several registered NFA items. I called NFA Branch and asked for the Statute or Regulation that spells out the notification requirements. I spoke to two "specialists" who both used words like "we like to know"...

My DBAL drains the battery when sitting stored. At first, I would leave the selector turned to visible laser and it ran through a couple of batteries. So I then started turning the selector to off but it still runs a new battery completely out in a week or two. Is this normal? Is the unit always...

Re: Vault Room Did some additional Googleing (?actual verb?) today and saw some references to using expanded metal sheets cut to fit all walls/floor/ceiling and screwed into existing studs and then covering that with Hardie board also screwed into studs. Thoughts? Alternatively, I found an...

Re: Vault Room Haha. I think you read LA as Los Angeles when you mentioned earthquakes. Sorry. LA as in Louisiana. We don't worry too much about earthquakes down here in Cajun country. I need to update my profile as well. Used to be North LA but the new place is way down South. If I...

I tried "search" so, if my Google Fu is weak, I apologize in advance. Does anyone have, or know where to find, information on building a NON-BASEMENT vault room? I just bought a new home and there is a large closet that I am wanting to convert to a walk-in safe/vault. Everything I have found...
