Re: No Machining 300blk build
Just in case the link becomes a link no more, these are Chet Herbert Ti valve retainers that they put on a clearance sale for $47.99. Full set of 16! I would ad that from a "no machining" standpoint, these will not fit in a D cell flashlight. These are roughly 37.7 mm. The freeze plugs tha...

Re: No Machining 300blk build
Ahem, These are from Herbert Performance (Chet Herbert). I have used many Herbert parts on my big nasty stroker 461 c.i. Pontiac engine build and they have a reputation for producing some VERY high quality parts. So, I would not worry about the quality of the titanium. I would be willing to bet that...

Re: booster/lid the new liberty x can take 10mm 45 cal 9mm and others
I was recently looking into the options with the Gemtech LID. I just recently bought a Gemtech suppressor (MM9) on a fantastic Black Friday sale (Thank you Gemtech!) and it came with a FREE LID. It came with a 1/2"-28 piston. I bought a 5/8"-24 direct thread adapter and I'm going to turn a...

Re: full titanium 30 cal build in progress.
Thank you for posting your work, Samson! I am in the process of designing a .308 can and your build is a great reference for ideas and inspiration! I have been torn between using ti tubing w/ threaded end caps or SS tubing with a welded front end cap and threaded rear for disassembly. I may just nee...

Question about integration of GemTech LID in form 1 build
Hello all, I just ordered a GemTech MM9 on a black friday sale that included a GemTech LID with 1/2x28 piston. The GemTech suppressor will be used primarily on my 300 BLK with a direct thread adapter. Since I got a free LID as part of a promotion, I am curious about using it in a form 1 project. My ...

Design software for form 1 design
Hello all, I have been lurking for the past 10 months or so reading, searching and trying to learn as much as I can. In this time I have been practicing basic skills on a lathe. I feel as though I am ready to start putting my pages of notes that I've taken over the past ten years into an actual desi...

Waiting on Silencerco Osprey; questions on getting SBR set up for it
Hello all, I have decided on an Osprey 45 to run on my Sig Scorpion 1911 and my 300 BLK. I have a few questions about getting my firearms setup so that they will be ready when my Osprey gets released to me. I think that my Sig 1911 is a no-brainer. I got a factory Sig threaded barrel and will get th...

Re: Questions from an inexperienced Form 1 builder.
Welcome. Since a lot of the veteran members here have beaten 300blk builds to death, my suggestions would be: First: Search the 300blk build threads, on the site. There will be a bunch of stuff already answered there. Second: Check out the completed builds thread. Tons of info there. Third: Come up...

Copy. Thank you!FarmDadCO wrote:Something to consider .. the SDTA muzzle brake/endcap combo has no retention device to keep the can tight . IIRC he does sell endcaps for yankee hill and possibly another manufacturer that have retention schemes built in to keep the can tight on the rifle .

Questions from an inexperienced Form 1 builder.
Hello gentlemen, I have been doing LOTS of reading here on the forum. Finally decided to join as I get near ready for my first Form 1 supressor build. I have just had my trust created and I am right around the corner from submitting my Form 1 to build my first supressor and register/build my first S...

Re: Tried a straight razor..
I shave with a Thiers-Issard straight razor and love it! It comes with a learning curve, but after your first time, I would guess that most pretty quickly learn what works and does not work for them. With that said, straight shaving is a more involved process. I have found that I will straight shave...
