Re: Reloading for a 9mm caliber rifle

Each gun is different. Start with good quality bullets and some ball powder and you should be fine. I like 231 for pistols but many others will work.

Re: Shipping a scope for warranty repairs.

I wouldn't worry scopes are pretty rugged. Just put something in the box to pad it. Otherwise take it to a FexEx Kinko's or UPS store and let them deal with it.

Per NFA item. Each suppressor, each SBR, each SBS etc. Unless you have an FFL :D

Re: Large bore suppressor

Tractor oil or fuel filter plus adapter. Not legal but I've seen it done. Replace filter after low mileage. Just kidding. :mrgreen: Legal provided it has been registered as a silencer. I know at least one company sells them this way. I've thought about trying it since it doesn't cost me anything. H...

Re: Large bore suppressor

I have all the sandman's. I honestly haven't shot my S much. My L on a 300 win mag is pretty darn quiet. I'd get anther Sandman before getting a different brand 338 suppressor. I think dead air is a solid brand. I'd consider the K and S more of a hunting/tactical type can and not super quiet if that...

Re: Gun store owners, please train your staff.

I would not expect any gun shop employee to know anything about antique firearms. It's hard enough keeping up with modern calibers. I expect most gun store employees to know enough about modern guns to sell you a gun, that's it. They should not be asked any questions such as this. Even if they had a...

Re: 45-70 Reloads

Pretty much all of the loads are going to have a lot of space. I haven't used 2400 so I can't coment on that powder in particular. Just go by the book and you should be fine. Or try a more appropriate powder for that caliber.

Re: every step forward seems to get a step or two backwards

It would be a lot easier to get a gun and file the serial number off than to buy a computer and 3D printer then learn how to print parts. I don't get what people are so worked up about. People have been making guns at home for decades. Not to mention most 3D printed guns are completely impractical w...

Re: Breaking News: ATF Is Classifying .50 Cal Bolt Action AR Upp

Is this really that shocking? If you try to buy a stripped bolt action receiver from Brownells it is considered the firearm and must go through an FFL. Because a bolt action may be fired without the stock, the trigger is integral to the barreled action. An AR15 may not be fired without a lower, the...

Re: Breaking News: ATF Is Classifying .50 Cal Bolt Action AR Upp

Makes sense to me. A bolt action receiver is the firearm. Not he wood, plastic, chassis stock. The lower in this case is akin to the stock on a traditional bolt action firearm. The "upper" is a bolt action receiver. Can you take a bolt action AR type upper and use it as the basis of a fir...

Re: Favorite 9mm suppressor host, and can we meet at a range

I have a Gemtec GM9. It's pretty loud with supersonic. I just can't get excited about can's on pistols anymore. Rifles - I'm all about it, pistols not so much. Why would you shoot super 9mm through a suppressed host, when you can use subs. Honestly suppressed rifles don't do it for me, because anyt...

Re: 32NAA

They had a 25 and 32 version using different parent cases. I think at this level of performance you are just splitting hairs. I'd just get a 380 and call it a day. If you want more power/penetration get a 9mm. Pocket guns don't really have enough power in my mind to worry about things like foot poun...

Re: scope mounting torque specs

You are way over thinking things. Just snug them down till they feel good. Everything has a torque spec, do you use a torque wrench on everything? I think very few things are critical, especially on guns. Snug it up and call it a day. You aren't putting together a space shuttle. They just put torque...
