Thank you for sharing the most enjoyable shots. Your
taste in suppressor is complimented by your humidor
and its contents. I shall make the gratuitous assumption
that your 18 year old ( McCallan scotch that is )
is of the same calibre.

Has anyone here tried this product yet? If so, what did you think? Is it worth the money? I saw it at shot show and they "look" nice. I have not heard one being shot yet. http://www.headdownproducts.com/shop/silencers/sbd22.cfm Pretty does not a good suppressor make. If it does not disass...

There is a large group who consider buying an old standard lathe or mill gives a better unit than a Chi-Com job. Nothing cuts like American iron. My good ole Hendey was originally purchased by MIT and then found its way into the NAVY. Not sure where it resided for all of those years but it is in my...

I remembered this post when I ran across "Metal Porn" for a suppressor smith. May I direct you to << http://www.cnccookbook.com/CCHallOfFame.html >>. In particular is an image of a home built milling machine. There is a large group who consider buying an old standard lathe or mill gives a ...

There's a reason why they don't make carbon fibre engines. Yeah, there's more reason than that. It's expensive, it's woven and can unravel, it's not hard, it's non-uniform, it doesn't hold lubricant, etc. I'm trying to think of everything steel and aluminum do, because most of it carbon fiber canno...

Somewhere, I read that for every single round launched, the average internal can temp increases approximately 7 degrees. If it's a large volume caliber, I would expect more of a jump than that. After several mag dumps, the numbers start to cumulatively add up if heat dissipation doesn't/can't catch...

Oh man, long story short there is a 380acp round stuck inside my phantom 308 can. It’s about right in the middle of the can ,2 baffles away from the back/thread end. We have tried just about everything to get it out, problem is that the fit is so tight that there is no clearance to just "shake...

o god its a usps reunion in here lol For the longest time I thought I was the only Postal worker who liked Silencers...lol Are there still Postal Inspectors that, like IA, are called when there might be a problem set? When Penthouse magazine first came out I found that my monthly subscription seeme...

It's not actually stuck in a baffle bore, it's loose in between two baffles like a baby rattle. After five pages I'm fucking STUNNED that people still don't get this obvious and "kinda" pertinent fact! :shock: -urban The "obvious" has gotten many folks smoked. "OOPS, you me...

I don’t know if your mini-lathe steady rest is similar to mine, but I modified mine to accept 1.5 inch tubing. I just extended the slots in the fingers a bit. http://i905.photobucket.com/albums/ac254/etorjul/suppressor/DSCN0208.jpg Nice set up. Is it possible for us to see more pictures of the lath...

Update: I just got a call from a forum member who was concerned about how the post might be interpreted.

To allay his fears I said " Don't hassle it, the guys on this site know I said it tongue-in-cheek".

Line went dead.

I have no idea who she is. Wish I did. Just a stock image I pulled off of the 'net. I found the pic as "inspiring" as you all did. :wink: Regardless, you bring joy, lascivious lusts, and happiness to the 'dirty old men' on this site whenever you post. :) Our gratitude. p.s. Now I understa...

Ah, Texas wisdom has again answered a vexing question of what is the source
of irritation when I am assaulted by the destructive lying verbal flatulence of progressives in the lame stream media .

Thank you.

I see your problem, you bought the Mac version. You should have gotten the PC version. That would have cost you about $1,000. :P About a month ago I converted all of our computers to MACs - amen. I'll be taking our PCs out this summer and turning them into swiss cheese with the minigun (and making ...

Another question concerning threading on the 7x12..would it be possible to chuck a piece of 1.5" to 2" OD round aluminum stock say 6" long on the mini lathe to thread without the use of a steady rest since the steady rest only holds diameters up to 1" ? Is a 6" long piece o...

Delivering pizzas is not kicking in doors.... Just saying INSURGENTS NEED PIZZA TOO!! :D don't forget the ham and bacon on it :) "don't forget the ham and bacon on it " GASP!!!!! Is that not a Taco at a Tex-Mex in San Antonio? Adding anything else but cheese and sauce is blasphemy. You mi...

It makes my forehead hurt. Just think what a jab to the face would feel like. From past history I see Jimmy Carter and Civil Rights lawyers lining up for class actions and brutality suits. Just think about the banning of 'dum dum'/James-Earl-Carter bullets in combat. :) Cave Canem to LEOs: will the...

Paul,

Nice, thanks.


Hope you are not in the Brisbane area with the flooding.

Now I know where the Aussie expression "Tie me kangaroo down" arose from.

Stay safe, mate. Alice Springs is probably drier.

Hi Guys 1st post, have been thinking about baffles inspired by some of the mono designs for a while, I would be interested to find your thoughts on how this design might work, especially the 'mouse holes' and cross bore jets cal .223 , stainless steel, I know they will be a lot of work to machine, ...

Fun little toy!

Beautiful, Sir.

Model? .45 caliber? Age of piece?
