Re: Octane or Osprey looking at buying a pistol suppressor and I cant decide between them

I considered the Osprey but bought the Octane for the ease of cleaning, and glad I did. I use it for various .22RF rifles and pistol hosts as well 9mm, 40 and 45 ACP with both my cast lead and copper jacketed projectiles. I use an inexpensive ultrasonic jewelry cleaner with a purple degreaser and it...

Re: Quick access safe for suppressed pistol

All of the pistol safes I have seen cannot handle the extra barrel length added by the suppressor. Can you recommend any safes? Depending upon how much room you have this will work and is silent. I have one wall mounted next to a bed. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Barska-4-Gun-Rifle-Fingerprint-Security-...

Re: Glock 21 thread pitch question.

With my 21sf I am using the LWD threaded barrel with the piston on my Octane 45HD. Fits fine, same with their other barrels for 9 and 40 and the SWR/ Silencerco pistons for the Octane.

Max bullet diameter for Octane 45?

What is the maximum bullet diameter for Octane 45? Will it handle a heavy .459" sized and lubed gas check or plain base cast bullet with a muzzle velocity about 1,100 fps range from a Trail Boss load in a 45/70 case using a 16" T?C Encore barrel? If not .459" what is the max to preve...

Re: Octane 45HD - I love it!

How much of the wire pulling gel did you put in and how did you apply it? I have been using mine dry for 22lr on a number of hosts and for 9mm, 40 S&W and 45 ACP with LWD Glock barrels. Really happy with it but curious about trying the gel, any down side to using it? I bought some of the clear ...

Thanks, that will possibly save another call. I think they said it will also handle 44 Mag. so I may have to thread one of my Contender or Encore barrels for it. Real easy can to clean, I use it for 22lr up.......

Re: Any 45 cans rated for 45 Super?

I suspect that my 45 Octane would work, I believe I phoned Silencerco some time ago asking if it would work with my LWD 460 Rowland Glock 21sf barrel and I believe he said it would be OK. Wrote it down some where but can't remember now, plan to call again and verify before using that combination.

Re: Can the Ruger 10/22 barrel be threaded

I'm old enough most of my rifle experience is with a straight grip stock. I also prefer wood over synthetic, walnut when available. I've got my eye on a Ruger 10/22 that meets these wants. Problem is I want the barrel threaded to shoot with my cans. Anyone see any reason why I could not have the ba...

Re: Silencer for Ruger 22/45

Hello all. What are your opinions on the best silencer for the 22/45 (that I will be purchasing soon!)? Thanks in advance. I have both an older 22/45 5.5" with sights and Pac Lite top & bottom rails for optics and a 22/45 Mk III 4.5" with just the stock top & bottom rails. On thes...
