Re: 30cal spacing
Are you welding it? Try each and find out. The best spacing for a semi auto may not be the best for a bolt gun.

Re: .25 ACP can
There is no reason that I can think of that would prevent you from firing your .25 through a .22 can, as long as you over-bore it a few thousandths There's an ATF document specifically calling this out as making a new silencer. It would be a felony unless you did another form 1 on this existing sil...

Re: Form 1 Design Flexibility
Is there any way to submit for a can that has the ability to be configured for more than one length? something with extensions or possibly if semantics are the issue something with a tube that is segmented to facilitate deployment in an abbreviated format? Considering a 10" build optimized for...

Re: Questions about drilling titanium and SS
Let the bit cool between parts. Not that this is bad advice, it isn't conducive to proper machining. Your chips should be taking away the vast majority of heat. So much so that your tool bits shouldn't be getting "hot". You should be able to touch a drill/tool bit, immediately after the c...

Re: Questions about drilling titanium and SS
Like others have said, any drill bit will work -- even dry. Better bits just last longer and can do work faster. The key is that your bits are sharp. If you dont know how to sharpen them by hand, buy a drill doctor. Theres no need to cut 1/16" at a time for such a thin part. 200-400 rpm will wo...

Buy one now and apply to build one now. You'll get your form 1 back before your form 4.

Why bother practicing? Jump right in to trying to make titanium parts. That's how I learned to use a lathe.

Re: Recommended Tooling
HSS is fine for titanium and 17-4, but not all HSS is equal. Cobalt HSS is far superior. Cheap HSS will work but will require frequent sharpening. As mentioned, reaming is unnecessary. Using a drill press, you wont get perfectly centered holes, and therefore you need to make the holes a little bighe...

Re: Greetings and Tax Return Question
Taxed marginally at rougly 30%, a $200 deduction brings $60 to your refund. This assumes that you're itemizing your deductions instead of taking the standard $12,000.
Individuals and trusts may not deduct our stamps though.

Canadian is right. Huntertown silencers are notoriously loud. Multiple companies offer services fixing or completely replacing the baffles. Curtis Tactical might.
