Sure, basic politics 101....The lobbyist pays for legislation (or lack thereof) through funding/donations and perks to the lawmaker. Who pays the lobbyist (hint,,,industry)?

Re: 9mm baffles

Probably because there is a radius in the normally straight 60 degree cone..Ergo, radial. I'm using the description provided by the machinist making the part. AND possibly, because that would be a name of a suppressor part, not a Radial Storage-Cup :shock: . But, whatever. I, however am intrigued th...

Re: 9mm baffles

K baffles is what you need. Why not radials? That"s what SilencerCo uses. They have arguably some of the most impressive numbers. Most guys without cnc or a lathe tracer can't do radials at home. Plus k's are pretty well defined in the hobby world. Won't see too many frustocone dimensions out ...

Thanks for the input, WhiteRussian. You are correct it is 303 SS. Both my form 1's were approved today (less than 90 days on a trust). I'm waiting on my tubes from DM. They say his work is worth the wait.

Does anyone here have real world reviews of the 316 Stainless Maglite cups by JMPF or TYCA industries in the 0.995 in. and the 1.340 in. size. I'm thinking of using them in an 8 in. long Titanium tube. The 0.995 for rimfire, and the 1.340 in. for supersonic use (.357 lever action)- .308 and down (wi...

Re: Form 1 10/22 Integral Suppessor

This may be a long-shot (and I think the overall non-suppressed barrel length should be fine), but have you tried to fire something like a stinger 22 lr yet? I know that shooting hyper/super-sonic 22 lr out of my short walther barrel makes the rounds sub/trans-sonic. I wonder if the ammunition in th...

Re: Due Process dies, Oregon Bill most dangerous law ever proposed

I imaging a law like this, would become like the witch hunts and trials. I would think many folks would call in and report all the Oregon police on a monthly basis. There would be no one to enforce the law.......then again, I'm sure they (the police and politicians) would be exempt.

So...In 2010 the Supreme court (in a five-to-four decision), overturned the century-old restrictions on corporations, unions and other interest groups from using their vast tre...

Re: Less felt recoil with suppressor? Or is it in my head?

I think a suppressor is the best muzzle brake in the world....The suppressor does the same thing as a muzzle brake, it redirects the expanding gas to the sides, and backwards (just like a muzzle brake). I think this does more to the "pulse length/s" and spreads the pulse out more with resp...

It sucks, but make a "stop sign" out of 1in square tube. Drill holes at 120 degrees, weld nuts around the holes, and use brass thread (or tap some brass to go over your threaded rod). Mount the stop sign to the base (I had a broken rest I used), and thread away...... http://gadgetbuilder.c...

Re: What tools are needed with the mini lathe?

I have to disagree tha the 7x14 is too small of a machine to make a suppressor. Albiet the minimum lathe needed. They are great to learn on, and crashing tools is a little less expensive.
