I have been wanting a S&W 617 4" for quite a while. Ever since I used one, provided by the range, for my CCW class. Just couldn't get past the $850+ for a "22". I know the size of the hole in the barrel doesn't make a difference in the amount of machine work, but it was just a mental block I...
What make/model of suppressor would be the closest thing to the original. Not necessarily the 20 tpi threads. I do have a 1/2 X 20tpi/28tpi adapter. Just want to get a can close as possibl e to the original Isreali model.
Is it really that good? Or just a way for Wilson to sell expensive guns and barrels?
Seems that if it were the new "sliced bread" there would be a lot more companies chambering their guns, uppers, and barrels for it.
What is your LGS like today? I've seen a few news stories (who can trust them?) about gunshops being swamped with people looking to buy guns, and ammunition. Even pics of lines out the door. But then again, it is the media I am seeing this fom. So it might be file photos from 2009!
That's why my...
on the way to the New Year!
At a New Year's Eve show in a theater in Branson Mo.
During intermission there was a comedian doing his act on stage. All evening there had been several of the balloons above the seats awaiting the balloon drop at Midnight popping on their own.
One popped during his...
It's been out for a while now, so what's the verdict from those who have one?
I need another pocket 380 like a third eye, but a local farm & home have them this week for $129.98. So what can be wrong with a hundred and something dollar pistol?
Anybody load Speer Deep Curl bullets in 450 Bushmaster?
I noticed Speer warns that special loads (I assume reduced) are required for these bullets. They say go to their website to find recomended loads, but there is no information for 450 Bushmaster.
Will the milspec buffer and spring from PSA handle the 450 Bushmaster OK. Or do you recommend something like a Wolff extra power spring, and H3 heavy buffer.
Sold by Midwsy. Who actually makes them, and what's your opinion. Midway has a complete 450 Bushmaster AR Stoner upper on sale now for $319, and I think also free shipping right now.
How's that sound for a thumper/plinker/ blaster/possible hunter build?
This time chambered in 22WMR instead of 25acp.Uglier than the original mostly because of the "double" trigger to conform with NFA regulations.
But I still have to have one! A bit more sure about production this time.

Not wanting to spend more on an optic than what I have in stripped lower, lower kit from PSA, and complete upper from PSA , my two top choices are the Spark AR, and the Sig Sauer Romeo5.
What kind of experience have you had with either/both?
Is this new "wonder 30" really anything markedly better than a 300 Winchester, or 300 Weatherby. Especially for a non-reloader who buys his ammo off the shelf.
Just wondering after a friend was telling me he wants to get a Remington Custom Shop 700 in this caliber because it is so much better...
Just bought a Beretta M71 that has had the faux suppressor removed. Thinking about diving into the can rabbit hole. What would be the most "authentic" looking suppressor for it. I have heard a can that fits the 1/2-20 threads are pretty much non existant. So I am thinking in advance, and...
Been on my short list for quite a while. Actually ever since they introduced them. I finally spent some of my extra "fun fund" money, and rewards cards on one. I knew full well that the action is quite stiff. So much that because of last shoulder and elbow injuries it's near impossible for me to...
I'm kind of developing an interest in these old guns. Not beautiful, usually not finely finished. Certainly not an object of envy.
But they are the Model T of repeating shotguns. A couple years back I found a Stevens 410 model 59A. An example of my very first "my very own" shotgun. Just a...
