    Silencers for local at home target practice?

    Thanks, TallPaul I appreciate ideas along lines of AirSofts, and small caliber or BB/pellet type practice. I'm just so new to pistols that I feel very strongly that I need to become completely familiar with "real thing". Gotta know the bangs, the snaps, the recovery of sight---all those sort...

    Very much appreciate the heads-up comments regarding lead dust. If I have to go to indoor ranges, I thinks I'll be taking premium dust masks in my range bag! Just hadn't tho't of lead dust. Glad you guys brought it up!

    For all of you who responded with great ideas, helpful considerations, warnings, and such: I answered every one---two or three times---but they vanished for reasons that make no sense to me, yet. To Mtrmn: Yes! This great little pistol IS a beauty! I like the safety features (cept for the...

    Tried to edit this post out. Just another site glitch that dumped another post I was working on. My reaction was off thread, but I was irritated. Site is forcing me to write---I don't know what. Wish they had an "eject post" button. Wasting your interest, dammit.

    To ALL: I'm wanting to share a few images from Bud's Guns and Tactical Life; also one from NutnFancy---but am not sure if it's OK. Not too sure what the "URL" is, related to images. I have these as jpg's which I've copied to show friends, and I always name the publication. Guess they'll cut...

    Thanks, Saakee. I'm thinking 'abeyance', in this sense, means "suspended". The problem was--repeatedly---that the site would force me to resign in, when I was actually working on the site, non stop, in the quick response box... But there's no warning nor explicit indication that your times is...

    Thanks, GhostTracker. Those are some great ideas. I'm concerned that--one neighbor in particular--is too close, and in the direction, generally, that I'd be most concerned about. I'd answered your previous posts in detail--but they vanished, not sure how---anyway, your ideas got me thinking...

    Silencers for local at home target practice?

    OK then. If that's how it is then it's just gonna have to wait. What with the fees, the barrel & barrel work, & what have you, it'd be more than I payed for the piece. I payed off my place, but my bone to bone hips cut back income dramatically. Still need to buy 500 to 100 rounds of ammo and...

    That sandwiched tire tunnel baffle device is pretty amazing. Can't quite tell how one can see the targets, esp. with a handgun. I like the idea of insulation in the tires, too. Since my cabin is on a hillside, with a low ceiling basement room with 3 to 5 ft. high cupboard-door-like access to...

    Silencers for local at home target practice?

    Thanks, Redneck. fyi, I've only recently participated in forums. Am still learning what's expected. I generally need to be honest and frank, even if inferring an honest need to cuss out loud on rare occasion. Nevertheless, I appreciate this site way too much--and social courtesy in...

    Silencers for local at home target practice?

    GLITCHES & MAJOR LOST RESPONSES MAKING ME CRAZY. I spent an hour and a half answering all but two responses---individually and carefully, only to have the who effort dumped; I STILL don't know what I did. THEN, I REWROTE THREE QUARTERS OF THE EARLIER ONE ONLY TO BE TOLD I'M NOT SIGNED---THO I...

    Silencers for local at home target practice?

    Wow! I got several responses---only yours read so far---Want to thank you for taking the time to respond. Thanks. I've learned a lot since the initial post. I am still very interested, but realize numerous issues, especially barrel and threading and function. Mostly, just wanna thank you and...

    Silencers for local at home target practice?

    I've ordered Ruger's SR9c, live in the mountains, want to practice on my property without startling the neighbors. There's nowhere close enough to practice. I know nothing about silencers, but the idea is really appealing, tho' I don't expect it to be the answer---but I just don't know how...
