    Difference in cost to produce: Glock 17 vs. Marlin Model 60?

    All I know is that Marlin is looking like a pretty good deal. If I didn't already have one I'd be placing an order

    gun-related names for boys?

    I had a friend named Ruger Winchester. Don't know what his middle name was.

    Are many people more interested in how their gun looks than how it functions

    Owners of the new .22 Uzi and Mossberg 715T .22 probably bought them for the looks. Who needs a 5lb .22 pistol? I know I don't but I bought one anyway.

    Ohio Reciprocity changes effective 03/23/15

    This is good news. 3 years ago I got a Utah permit so I could visit Ohio. Seemed convoluted.

    Iron sights for AR

    Be cautious of ebay magpul flip up sights. I got some for too good of a price and they were imitation. Which you wouldn't think would make much difference except at 25 yards I'm aiming a foot high and they won't adjust any further. See this article about them...

    Anyone else soured on .22lr?

    I know it's not an option for everyone but a .22 suppressor has removed any souring of mine. I can't recommend it enough. I have two pistols and three rifles with threaded barrels and am on the lookout for more. Would love a new CZ but the only factory threaded model they have is right handed...

    CA: SB-15 SBR charge against home intruder

    My guess is the gun is stolen. Why would someone buy arm brace when a stock is so much cheaper? People concerned about legal compliance might be less likely to be involved in a home invasion.

    Suppressor Under $600

    You might take a look at the AAC Ti-rant. Silencershop has them for $499. I've got a 9mm one waiting for a stamp. http://www.silencershop.com/shop/aac-ti-rant-45/

    Threaded vs pinned barrels

    Seems threaded would be much easier to add a suppressor to.

    Thinking about a suppressor project

    I just checked and Silencershop has most recent approvals for paper trusts at 114 days. That's 3 weeks faster than my eform approvals were a year ago. Good news as I have two stamps pending.

    List of affordable 9mm?

    I bought one of those PPX two weeks ago. Paid $300 for the threaded barrel model for use with a suppressor. Would have had to pay close to half that for just the barrel for any of my other guns. It was a great deal in my opinion with 3 magazines, holster and magazine carrier.

    What are all the different weapons used in The Walking Dead?

    When they found the suppressors my first thought was that some poor guy died waiting for his stamps to arrive.

    Sig arm brace -- important legal update

    This thread sold me on an SBR instead of the arm brace as well. I had been considering the arm brace but after buying a $50 stripped lower and finding 300 BLK 10.5" uppers under $300 I was able to put together an SBR for about $700 including the tax stamp. The pistol buffer was going to cost...
