Re: Anybody got a line on a factory threaded Glock 17 barrel

We have had good luck with both Storm Lake and Lone wolf barrels for Glock. With the Lone Wolf being only $125, its a deal. They have been just as good if not better than the factory barrels in my experience. Have used them on 9mm, 40sw and 45acp.

Re: Sell me on the Specwar 762

I use our Demo Specwar 762 on a 308 bolt, 8.5" 300BLK AR, 16" 556 AR, and 16" 300BLK bolt. It is a great can. No accuracy issues that I can tell but I don't shoot over 200m. For plinking I don't see any noticeable difference in the feel of the additional 1.5", there is a differen...

Re: Best Can for a 300blk

I would recommend choosing the suppressor first, then make final decisions on the rifle parts. It will be difficult if not impossible to manipulate the QD locking mechanism with the hand guard overlapping the can. I also started with that setup in mind but opted for a shorter hand guard for easier a...

Re: Why I buy SWR silencers

I highly recommend SWR to anyone getting into the show because they do make a quality product and they do back it up. A good friend got a Spectre II on my recommendation. He had an end cap strike on the first time out, very traumatizing. He called and the rapair was done immediately. The cause was a...

Re: SWR Customer Service Rocks!

A friend had light end cap strikes on his Spectre II because of a Tactical Innovations adapter. Called customer service, bam, new end cap. He got an SWR adapter which is perfect. No more strikes.

Coyote hunt with a suppressor?

I have no personal experience using a suppressor on Coyote but I cannot believe that there is no advantage. Can anyone share an experience where a suppressor was beneficial while hunting Coyote?

Convert AR in 25WSSM to 300BLK

I know that the 5.56 converts to 300BLK with just a barrel swap but with the 25 WSSM not so much. I do know that I will need a new BCG but I have conflicting opinions as to weather I can use the same upper or not. Some have said that the barrel extension is different so a 300 blk will not fit.

Re: Need ideas to finish off my dream reloading room.

I've been thinking of moving my reloading bench out from the wall like a T so I will have access to both sides. It is 48"x36" with a shelf below. Right now I do not get the best use of the entire space and stuff on the shelf gets covered up. Im pretty new to reloading so I still use coffee...

Re: Good thread-mounted 5.56 suppressor?

Torch. I am waiting on my Specwars and Sakers but I think that the most bang for the buck is definitely the Torch, for threaded. There is also a Titanium version out now, if you are $x2 worried about weight. It is just about 1/2 the weight of the original.

I still love mine. It took me a while to get it apart last time, though. I let it go a few hundred rounds to far before cleaning. One of the selling points for me was the video showing how to take the TL apart on Liberty's website. If a manufacturer trusts his product enough to tell me I can beat i...

Re: Subsonic coyote round that can reach 200 yards

I figured that a +180 grain rifle bullet will a little to heavy to travel that distance without a +20" drop and a pistol round probably has to poor of a ballistic coefficient. I was hoping that someone knew about an extremely efficient 90-125 grain rifle round that could get to 200 with enough ...

Subsonic coyote round that can reach 200 yards

Is there a subsonic round that can easily kill a Coyote at 200 yards? I am trying to figure out if there is a sub round that can reach that far, still have plenty of energy for a clean kill but not have a huge drop to deal with. Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: how to dispose of or what to do with old non serviceable

As long as the serialized tube is in good condition you may want to check with the original manufacturer or a different manufacturer to see if they will update the baffles or core for you. I think, then you submit a form 5 for permission to send the can off for repair.

It is the same as any shooting, it takes practice. If you sight through the can it will take time to get accustomed to it. If you put raised sights on pistol you shoot often, you will have to get accustomed to those sights. Wait till you get the suppressor to decide unless you are sure about what yo...
