Re: Legal issues for non-engraved form 1 receivers

In the past, it didn’t bother me to engrave the receiver, but this time is different because it’s a really nice item that I have been waiting for a long time to receive and engraving it is really eating at me. I never cared about the engraving on my other items and I have never and will never sell ...

Re: Best Can for a 300blk

http://thunderbeastarms.com/products/

I am waiting on the 30pss for my 8.2" 300blk sbr.

I demod it with a dealer and was very impressed. Im sure the 30ps meters a bit quieter, but with 300 subs I doubt it would be noticeable.

Re: Securing

So I just got my first NFA weapon, a suppressor. Now I have a question. The need to secure it is obvious. However I haven't gotten a safe yet because I just want to wait until I move in a few months and get a big one and not have to spend the money on a small bedside one just to buy another later. ...

Surefire baffle strike and warranty experience

I thought I would share my latest Surefire experience with you all… I bought a SOCOM762 for my Ruger scout rifle. Light weight magazine fed 308 with a 16” barrel; what’s not to like? I had a local gunsmith install the surefire flash hider about a month before I received the stamp for the can. He use...

Re: Can't decide on a 30cal can

I recently tried out a few 30 cal thunder beast arm's cans and ended up buying the 30pss for my 8.2" 300blk sbr. I believe it is currently the shortest and lightest thread-on can out there. However, I wouldn't run supersonic rounds through it... Also, I have the YHM ti 5.56. IMHO, having cans f...

Re: Issue with Silencerco Trfecta flash hider and PWS barrel

I appreciate it Andrew, but I literally just shipped it off to PWS. I went back to the gunsmith and on PWS’s suggestion, we tried mounting the flash hider on a tap and it went on a fine, but you can really tell the difference between a standard birdcage and the Trifecta. It’s almost like the Trifect...

Issue with Silencerco Trfecta flash hider and PWS barrel

I have an issue that is leading me to question all I know about AR’s as well as my sanity… I cannot install a standard ½ x 28 Silencerco Trifecta flash on my PWS barrel! As soon as I start to screw it on, it seizes. I don’t want to force it on or cross thread it, so I stopped. I took it to a trusted...

I used to employ a 14" aow shotgun for hd use. As my kids got older I realized that situational awareness, both for my family and myself, was a real concern. A pistol frees up a hand to open doors, guide kids, etc. The suppressor lets you hear one another. If the worst were to happen and I need...
