While scouring the web today I learned there are two versions of the FVSR floating around. One is the Savage 28704 made especially for Lipsy's and the other is the now-standard 28702 made and distributed by Savage for all distributors. I got the 28702, which is good, I think. It has the...

Today I bought a firearm I have never held or seen in person. We'll see if I have disappointed myself when it arrives next week. This is the first time I've taken a leap of faith like this. I was looking for a bolt action pistol or rifle in 22LR to further exploit the benefits of a...

I've got a silencerco 22 Sparrow (Mk 2). It sounds like a wussy pellet gun when you fire the P22. The loudest thing is the slide going into battery. The Silencerco is able to be completely dis-assembled for cleaning. The exterior tube contains the serial number and you would really have to...

I'm looking to get another suppressor and I would like to suppress a handgun, a 9mm or a 45. From what little I know about the inner workings of the suppressor it would seem to me the 45 would respond best to being suppressed as the projectile is rarely supersonic. So I went out reading...

WOOOO HOOOO it's in. Method: Trust Form 4, Suppressor Mailed: March 18th Check Cashed: March 29th Additional Requested documents mailed: April 18th Form 4 approved: May 9th Form 4 arrived at Dealer: May 24th Examiner: William Shipman. 67 days, start to finish. :D

Oh yeah, and a useful post: Slungshot was originally used to describe a piece of shot that was wrapped in a rope knot, the 'monkey's fist' is the one I have seen countless times, and then slung out of a pocket or coat sleeve to hit the target. Some lousy sailors still do this at the end...

Free legal advice is worth exactly what you pay for it. I like the idea of making them.

What kind of engineer are you?

It's 200 dollars per can per transfer. If you buy a can, you pay the tax, you sell it to your neighbor he has to pay the tax, he sells it back to you, you have to pay the tax AGAIN. Per can, per transfer.

Why is it that governments are allowed to make rules that could lock up their subjects for 10 years anyway? Joe, some laws are stupid; some people are stupid.

Sent mine off in February. Still Waiting. I got Mr. Shipman, who I have spoken to on the phone. He seems to be a very polite and thorough man with one helluva overload. On some other boards he has a reputation for being 'not at work' most days. Apparently the examiners have other duties...

You want free legal advice? Back from the dead... You know, $100 or even $250 for a quick qualified legal consultation is a lot cheaper and faster to obtain than a $100,000 law education.

So, I was reading some federal regulations and saw that the NFA used very different language when defining a pistol and the 4 types of long guns (Rifle, SBR, Shotgun, & SBS). In the definition of a pistol it says the pistol is a pistol if it was originally manufactured to be like...

The only '870' I am familiar with in this context is made by Remington and is, indeed, classified by the BATFE as a shotgun. I emboldened the text in GRAPE-DRANK's original post below: Before typing out your (somewhat insulting) reply suggesting I was out of line a prudent person would have...

Consider having a Type 7, SOT 2 do it? What would it cost you to have a Type 7 FFL do the cut on your shotgun? He can do it under his SOT type 2 and then transfer it to you. If your shotgun came with a pistol grip, He could cut the barrel 2 inches longer than you want- do no finish work...
