Re: may not want to deal with this bank

I don't want to deal with any bank, which is why I am a member of a FCU. :D This is not the 1rst anti-gun BOA stunt I have heard of, so I'm not surprised.

Re: Status: Awaiting final approval?

Deja vu wrote:Called the BATFE yesterday and got the status of awaiting final approval. What does this mean and how long does it typically take?

sorry if this is a dumb question but I am new to suppressors.

Did they give you the date of the change of status? Approval should be within 30 days of that date.

Re: Top cans for 7.62x54 or .308 Winn?

I'm not shocked. Everyone is busy juggling the Christmas list and the stockpile list. Anyway, I'm considering getting 2-30 cal cans simultaneously, a Liberty Freedom and an AAC 762 SDN-6. The AAC only adds 6.1" to the firearm OAL. This would reside on a 300 BLK SBR I am building. The Freedom wo...

Re: Red Jacket in Gun Test magazine

Saiga S-12s, and I have two, generally don't run well on Winchester Shells. Mine won't run Winchester, be it Low, or High Brass. They love the Federal and Remington, though.

"Pending Approval"

Ever hear of that one? Well, you have now. I called today to check on the status of an Item, a Bowers Vers50, to see if it went Pending. It had, on 11/26/12. I always verify my that items go Pending. When I do, I check on any item near approval. When I asked about another Item, a Leonidas, that went...

Re: Quietest suppressor for a Ruger 22/45 lite?

It does not have to be a lite I just thought it would be cheaper to get a gun that comes with a pre-threaded barrel and I am a Ruger fan. 22/45 MKIII comes in a threaded barrel model. http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/21_49_74/products_id/74663/Ruger+MKIII+2245+22LR+4+12%22+...

Re: Bowers Vers 50?

His page says .510 and smaller and UP TO 2200fps, then why would you ask 2700 fps is ok? Seems he made it pretty clear. I mistakenly underestimated the pressure generated by a .308Win. I thought that pushing a 325gr round ~2000fps would be in the same neighborhood as pushing a 168gr round up to 270...

Re: Phase 1 (deciding) would like some help

Get the Infinti. I shot them both side by side and the weight makes a difference when mounted on a pistol host. I shot 9mm and 300 BLK subs thru the demo Infinti, which is my intended application. Neither are high intensity rounds. I should have my Infinti in Dec or Jan. Dave stands behind his produ...

Re: Opinion on .22 Can?

I enjoy shooting my Kodiak TL, very much. I just bought a 5K round case of CCI SV, but I doubt I will ever shoot out the TL, though I may shoot more than several cases, before it is all said and done. I went with the Kodiak TL over the Essence because weight is not much of an issue between those two...

Re: Best bolt action .22 rifle for suppressor ?

I am kicking the tires to see where is the best place to apply limited resources for a suppressor. One option is buckmark handgun. If I go that route, I will likely get a tac sol 4inch barrel threaded. (My understanding is that a shorter barrel is quieter and more effective than a longer barrel.) W...

Re: Is there a way to check progress of a suppressor transfe

If you have the can SN#, you can submit the F-4, before your SOT even receives the can, if your SOT will sign. Wait a minimum of 4 weeks. I have a Leonidas on order, have submitted the F-4,, check cashed, and it is not finished being built.
