Re: Marines: We Still Don’t Want Guns On Our Bases

Plus, it makes no sense. They can be trusted around one another with weapons that are immeasurably more powerful over there ... but domestically they're too unstable for a handgun? I encourage anyone who asks, to refrain from any military service. I joined at 17. No way I would do it again. Of cour...

Marlin 336 30-30

I've decided that paw paw wouldn't mind if I had some work done to his old 30-30. I hunted with this gun as a child, and he gave it to me when I was 13. I'd like to have the mag tube shortened, barrel threaded for my suppressor, new finish etc. Maybe even a package deal from a quality smith. I ran a...

Re: Just Right Carbine integral suppressed

I thought about one of these, instead of another upper for my AR SBR. Using glock mags would be a big plus. I had a smith in Mississippi build an SBX type barrel for an UZI carbine. A permanent shroud with the ability to insert the suppressor and lock onto a 3 lug adapter would make it a no-stamp gu...

Re: Kimber in the game

I own a few Kimbers and have had good service out of them. The 45 that I bought in '98 has thousands of rounds through it. I also own a Target 10mm and a 9mm Pro Carry. Great guns. However, the AAC Nighthawk 9mm haunts me. In my head, I have a list of guns to sacrifice in order to buy it. Otherwise...

XDm 4.5" Barrel in the 3.8" XDm??

I have the 4.5" and use a Bar Sto barrel. I will be purchasing the compact and would like to know if the barrel will interchange. Then I can just have the factory 4.5" barrel threaded, and use it in the compact.

Obviously, I am a fan of th XDm.

Re: 357 lever and Octane? Quieter than semiauto pistol?

I have a Marlin 1894 and run it with an AAC EV9. I mainly run 158s from it. It is definitely more quiet than the Glock or HK that I actually bought the suppressor for. This can hardly ever hangs off the end of a handgun anymore. I plan on getting the jailbreak treatment done so I can shoot lead thro...

Re: Glock 17 without a booster.

The only extra wear, I would imagine, would be if the gun attempts to cycle. Even then, it seems that the wear would still be less than the same amount of rounds fired without the suppressor. I suppose a really stiff recoil spring (one that would allow the gun to be manually cycled only) might work....

Re: Range day use of suppressor

There are many shooting ranges where people can rent and enjoy shooting NFA weapons. We had one locally for a while. There are several in Vegas, for example, where many joyful Japanese tourists line up to shoot a Tommy Gun. With the RO's careful instruction, of course.
