Re: Ebay sellers gone full on nuts.

SC,
out of curiosity - would you advise a client to hand over the parts or keep them & prove legal "intent" ?

Re: Concealed Carry. Why bother?

From what I've just read about handgun permits in New York City it happened in washington, d.c. In that case, attempting to put myself in the victim's place, I expect I'd have let him have the phone for a moment, then as he made his getaway I'd have damaged him and taken my phone back, having waite...

Re: Concealed Carry. Why bother?

Re: Laser engraver

does their laser engrave to required depth of .003" or is it for cosmetic purposes only?

Re: Huntertown Arms Guardian .22lr (Gen 2)

i emailed them about pre-2014 vs new model stainless steel baffles. they responded within 3 days: We do still offer an upgrade for the pre-2014 version that gives it stainless steel enclosed K baffles. The cost of this upgrade is $150.00. i think the main advantage is the baffles not sticking to the...

Re: Huntertown Arms Guardian .22lr (Gen 2)

the guardian 22 SS has all stainless construction with enclosed K baffles for a retail price of $289.
1) what constitutes a better can?
2) what's a convincing argument that one needs to pay $200 more for the "better" can?

if the sound impulse is too quick to require a sampling rate of >44khz, wouldn't that make it high frequency inaudible by human ear?

Octane 45 baffle port orientation

so the manual says that for best performance the baffle ports need to be aligned.
any test results on sound signature, total SPL or accuracy with the ports not aligned? or in another particular orientation (i.e. spiraled 90 deg from each other)?
