I'll add more as time goes, but here's one for tonight, an all SS Charger type build. The whole thing is stainless including the receiver and trigger group. It makes it heavy, but I like it anyways.

As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such a twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air -- however slight -- lest we become unwilling victims of the darkness.

All my silencers except one are for .22LR - I am a huge fan of the pipsqueak caliber.

My very first F1 can went on this .22 subgun I made out of a Bushy lower, DIAS, with an ACE side-folder stock:

Image

Image

The can is as massive (and heavy) as it looks, but it is quiet.

My "Go to" pistol for pests and the like will forever be my stainless Ruger MII with either the CAC-22 or SS Sparrow can. Ruger got that one right. When I ordered the pistol at a local pawn shop, I had the choice between the mark 2 and the newer Ruger pistols, and there was no choice for me - the classic gun.

But for all-around suppressed awesomeness, the Savage MK2 is hard to beat. With even modest glass, it's scary accurate, and pests within my small acreage are not safe. If the X-hairs are on him, he'll be hit.

My very latest, both pistol and suppressor:

Image

SiG Mosquito and SS Sparrow. Love the Sparrow despite it's FRP. I'm a high volume guy. :lol:

But the Mosquito... I really like the way the gun looks and feels. Ergonomically, for me, it's perfect. If I could replace every piece of cast metal on it with correct steel, or Al alloy, I'd pay $500+ or more for it. But too many guys have ended up with cracked slides or receivers. AND, it did not function well at first. Too tight. I ended up using a very special set of lapping compounds called "Time Saver". TS compound is unique in that it cannot embed; in fact, it is guaranteed not to embed, so it can be used on things like pistol slides, even pot metal slides.

I dabbed some TS lap mixed with oil into the Mosquito and cycled it about 100 times, and it took every bit of stickiness out of it.

How about a Form 1 on my SBR?
(the light, laser, vertical grip and optic have all been changed - but the rifle and can remain the same)
