    NAA Mini Revolver?

    ...25-yard shooting? Actually, just to open this up to any and all BW owners -- did y'all go fixed or adjustable, and why? Thanx. J *************************** My Black Widow has adjustable sights, which I had to noticably tap to the left about 25% of the way off center of the...

    NAA Mini Revolver?

    Yes, I comprehend that a .22 is not the equal of a nine mm, or a .45. But since I figure a golfball to tennis ball size of homoginized flesh will do a lot to disuade an attacker, I feel pretty safe sleeping out in the open with a Black Widow in my pocket. Since I do not have a CCW, Day time...

    NAA Mini Revolver?

    Auote: The Stinger round is probably the WORST choice from the standpont of penetration, too. I have shot rabbits with solid 22s and Stingers. The solids pass through without much ado, rarely killing the rabbit. The Stingers literally explode what they hit. In another experiment, I shot a...

    do any of you guys carry a pocket knife

    To 451 Detonics: I gotta say, them are some very pretty knives. **************************************** quote: The third knife is never used, it is a last ditch emergency knife and as such I was it to have a razor sharp edge at all times and be able to be drawn and used with one hand. It is...

    NAA Mini Revolver?

    Hi there: I don't know if you have ever used CCI Stingers. They make a real difference in the power of a .22 LR. Really noticable difference. And I might mention that the WMR rounds cost as much as 9mm. That being said, I have both cylinders. A box of 50 rounds of WMR has lasted me about...

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    Muzzle Brake - How do you calculate how to make one? (It was suggested I make a new thread. I cannot figure out how to do that.) :confused: I want to take a .303 Enfield and carve it up to make a hiking/hunting rifle. My original intention was to make recoil dampening on the rifle barrel...

    NAA Mini Revolver?

    ...when I pour the cylinder out it doesn't dump all the rounds on the floor, then with thumb over the bullet end turn it upright, and push cap on. ********************************* My wife likes my NAA mini also...and that scares me. The last time she took a shine to one of my revolvers I...

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    The holes and slots you are referring to are recoil "climb" compensator ports. Nothing to do with quietening the report of a firearm which is what a silencer does. A suppressor -as in "flash suppressor" is meant to reduce flame front emanating from the barrel. OK, somehow this has gotten...

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    Initial Temperature is 68 F or 528 R Assuming that initial and final pressure are the same, final volume would be equal to T2V1/T1, or 417 x 4120 / 528 = 3254 feet long. ********************************************* I think three thousand feet of barrel would friction the bullet to death.

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    Hi Drew: So I am guessing that these Maxim Silencers are now illegal? Sounds like exactly what I wanted. ************************************************* It's my understanding that "Silencer" was the brand name Maxim used on his invention. These days the Maxim Silencer company builds...

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    Hi: Thanks for the response. I wasn't planning on screwing one on. I was wondering about these holes in barrels themselves. I have seen Glocks with holes on the top of the last couple inches of barrels, and rifles with slots cut in the sides of the barrels. I wondered if there was any guidance...

    do any of you guys carry a pocket knife

    Do I carry a knife? Since I was 8 years old, I haven't been without a pocket knife more than a few days. The first couple were three dollar Barlows from the local Five & Dime store. Picked up a Puma folder while in the service in Germany. For the past 25 years, until last August, I have...

    What clever little things have you "invented or discovered" that you can share?

    I am not sure of the placement of your primer catcher, but it sounds like an open tray that circles the press. I had a similar problem with my Lee Challenger, it has a cast bucket in the side of the press. I solved it by using the shop vac to just vaccum the primers out of the bucket. That...

    Ontario Machetes

    Ontario knives. I have used a couple Ontario knives, and handled several. they mostly make a high quality bare bones line. I don't care for the handles that have some of the tang sticking out the rear, but they make full tang, tough, sharp items. You probably got a good working knife. Your...

    New loader looking for input on equipment list

    ...per month anyway. I also like that it gives me a chance to handle each aspect of the process a little closer than a progressive while I learn. ****Started with Lee's simple little "C" press, went to the challenger, then to the Load Master. In a period of about a year. I will clue you to ask...

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    Hi Jim Watson: I saw that Maxim photo down lower, but silencers are illegal. So I wanted to avoid going to prison just to reduce recoil. Thanks for your response.

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    Hi Ranb: Thanks. Do you know if there are any instructions out there for making such a thing? I have looked at pictures, and wondered if such could be put on a rifle. I don't think they are illegal, are they?

    Difference between a suppressor and a silencer?

    What reduces recoil? If I am not trying to silence a rifle, but to reduce the recoil, what is the name of that device? It blows some of the blast out to the sides or rearward.
