    Suppressors Inert gas for "running wet"

    Thanks to all. Pretty much what I figured. And I'd rather hear the pop than smell the cigarette. : - ) I'll try the "blow it out, seal it and chamber it" method. TB

    Suppressors Inert gas for "running wet"

    Pardon me if it's been asked before, but is anyone using C02, Argon or Nitrogen to help with the first round pop from their rifle can? I saw a comment about "computer keyboard cleaner" sprayed for 2 seconds in a pistol barrel, and wondered about other cans / gases. I have weld argon and nitrogen...

    Suppressors Can Anyone Comment Specifically on the Accuracy/POI Shift of the SilencerCo Harvester?

    I have one on order. Silencerco literature says that it is not recommended for semi auto use, Silencerco customer service says semi auto is "ok, if you don't mag dump. Shoot it with a few seconds between rounds and it will run fine" on my new DPMS GenII Hunter. I am anxiously awaiting it's...

    Suppressors Questioning my local Class 3 dealers honesty, need input.

    Was this a dealer in Carrollton, now closed? With a West Texas store barely open? I paid with credit card in March. Dealer said they paid NFA with check in May. NFA said "pending" on Sep 28 and probable approval next May. I'm mad as Hell, but somewhat relieved at the "pending". At least I know...

    Suppressors SWR 7.62 specwar

    I run mine on 300blk AR15 carbine(subsonic), 308 supersonic Bolt and semi auto and 223 supersonic carbine. The can runs great, with minimal shift of poi and no noticeable difference in accuracy. Super quiet on Blackout especially, but hearing safe (from behind the muzzle) on other calibers. I...

    Any reason for 300BLK if I can't SBR or suppress it?

    With the big bullets (180+), I believe it's the only sub sonic round that CYCLES THE BOLT on an AR platform. Yes, that makes it even better with a can, but it's a really low recoil sweet shooter in either super or sub sonic version. With subsonic ammo and no can, it can be shot outdoors with no...

    Hunting & Fishing Concealed carry when hunting??

    On a "split property" lease several years ago, the guy leasing the upper road decided to close the road for his hunt, leaving us without access to our part of the lease. No landowner in sight, and tempers flared. Cooler heads prevailed and all weapons were layed down while the discussion...

    .223 - 5.56

    Rebs, try 25 grains for a highly accurate load. Not sure about fps, but should be around 3150-3160 in the 20". The H335 is not the fastest load, but is extremely accurate on 55-60 grain for the 223. My buddy worked up this load, and last week I saw "most accurate powder tested" in Nosler's...

    For The Money, Best Long Gun For Beginner?

    Re: For The Money, Best Long Gun For Beginner? I'm a long time lurker and new poster here. I have a Remington SPS Tactical 20" in .308 and it's a tack driver for sure. I researched the 20" barrel (here and elsewhere) and found the consensus was 18"-20" will give maximum accuracy from the...
