    Good idea, bad, or just fun?

    So I was looking at some rifle barrels for Encore rifles and I came across some SSK barrels. I was kind of on the lookout for a .375 JDJ or .30-30 Win barrel as those are two I regret trading off. Anyway they had a 16" threaded .30 Carbine barrel with 1:7 twist. Now I think this would be...

    An old friend and his firearms

    So last week I got a call from an old co-worker (friend), I've been in contact with since I left that job in 2012. So he starts the conversation "I'm not going to be around long, do you want to buy any of my guns?" He's 79 on oxygen full time with COPD and AFIB he explains, and this is why he...

    Anyone try the Form 4 e-file yet?

    I'm mainly interested if it is reducing the wait times? I'm considering picking up a couple more suppressors, and my first two due to gov shutdown and COVID took over 18 months to receive.

    Cz 600 stop use immediately!

    CZ 600 STOP USE IMMEDIATELY! I don't know the issue, but saw this safety message and thought it should be passed along. If you have one of these rifles please keep us informed as you find out more.

    Lee APP?

    So for you all using this, how do you like it? Does it really speed up your brass processing? What do you not like about it? I'm looking to process 9mm, .223, and .308 as those are my high volume cartridges.

    So I bought this old .308

    Back in the first week of June I bought a M700 BDL in .308 Winchester. Used but not abused rifle. It had seen better days, especially the stock. I only have one picture from the good side I'll post later, on the other there is a big chunk of toe missing. So much that it cut it down and put...

    So I bought a M700!

    But that's not the coolest part of the story. The coolest part was getting to meet Jimmy. Jimmy is a transmission rebuilder over in Delta Colorado, and probably one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Jimmy is also a bonafied firearms loony, who appraiser and purchaser of estate firearms and...

    .22 Cal rimfire rifles?

    If a guy was in the market for a .22 LR and WMR and the only stipulations are that the rifle must be a bolt action and suppressor ready, what would you buy? I already have a 10/22 that's suppressor ready, and am looking for a bolt action rifle to slow the rate of fire. Budget is $600 per rifle...

    SBR Qestion?

    I recently purchased two Anderson multi caliber lowers to build an AR pistol on one. I'm thinking I might go ahead and build SBRs out of both. How do I start the stamp process? When I purchased my suppressors I did single shot trusts from the Silencer Shop kiosk

    What to build?

    I just ordered two stripped multi caliber AR-15 lowers. Trying to decide what to build. I think I want to build a .300 BLK pistol, but the other I don't have a clue on. Should I build another pistol in .223 Wylde 14" barrel or go 16" barrel rifle in the Wylde again? Both are going to be...

    A little disappointed, Tag Soup!

    Just got back from a 4th season buck hunt in the high country of Colorado, and wound up eating a tag that took six years to get. It wasn't for lack of seeing deer, I probably saw anywhere from 80-100+ deer a day for the entire five day season. The rut just wasn't on or all the big deer are...

    Suppressors and Chronographs?

    Still using my old Pro Chrono, and thinking it's time to upgrade. Looking at Magnetospeed V3 (shooting suppressed) or LabRadar mainly and weighing the pros and cons, either one should provide me with reliable data. The way I look at it the V3 is the more complete kit for $330, the LR is still...

    Missed the Mark Again!

    So I came home from work the other day and found this sitting on the table. SS 7 Twist, 5R rifling, 18" Savage Magnum contour, 5 spiral flutes, threaded 5/8-24, and chambered in 6mm Creedmoor. I know you're scratching your head 18" Creedmoor? So first thing I did was put it on the scales...

    Custom Clamp On Thread Adaptors

    I'm severely lacking on threaded barrels to put my suppressor on. So while searching for ways to thread barrels with too small of a profile, I ran across Witt Machine and their custom clamp on thread adaptors. I happened to look this morning and they are having a 4th of July sale where most...

    Rifle Basix Sav2 trigger?

    So those of you who use them are they worth the money? I've always replaced my Savage non Accutriggers with the Sharp Shooter Supply Competition Trigger and have loved that trigger. However, SSS has discontinued the trigger because they don't work with the new bottom bolt release Savage...

    Next Suppressor suggestions please!

    I pick up my first two suppressors an Omega 300 and Sparrow on Monday, that is if the shop is still open here in CO. I'm already looking at the next suppressor/s to purchase. I'm kind of interested in a dedicated .223/5.56 suppressor, but that shouldn't be an issue to find the one I like...

    Bought a Whistle Pig!

    I bought my daughter a Ruger 10/22 Target a few years ago with a brown laminate stock and 20" heavy barrel. I pick up my Silencer Co. Sparrow suppressor on Monday, and realized I didn't have a threaded .22 rifle yet. So I ordered in a 16.5 threaded barrel from Whistle Pig. I've never tried...

    I guess it's Grendel!

    Just threw down some money and a .223 factory barrel for a used Savage Prefit barrel in 6.5 Grendel, PT&G bolt head, and Accustock with DBM set up in 7.62X39. I Feel like I got a pretty good deal on the stuff, considering the barrel is a Bartline. It's good thing I have a unmolested Stevens 200...

    Some Custom Hunting Gear!

    I got my knife back in the mail yesterday, I had accidentally damaged the tip so I sent it back to be repaired. I also got a prototype cartridge holder that the knife maker is working on. I'm pretty excited to try it out on my next pronghorn hunt, but I'll have to use my .270 or .30-06 as...

    Daughter's first elk!

    My daughter drew a Muzzle Loader tag for a bull elk this year in a any bull unit. I had had problems finding a front stuffer that my daughter liked. Muzzle loading is a foreign concept to my daughter so I started asking around on a bolt action ML to get something similar to what she was used...
