    Taurus TX 22 Anyone?

    I have just about worn out a S&W MP .22 (the Original not Compact), and I am looking for a new suppressor host plinker. I don't like the puny child sized .22s. (like the M&P Compact or smaller). Since the full sized S&W MP has been out of production for years now, I am looking for an...

    Yugo Pap Pistol Red Dot Mount?

    Has anyone mounted a red-dot to a Yugo Pap pistol? I am trying to decide between an Ultimak forward gas block (which I understand gets hot), or drilling and tapping the upper dust cover and adding a rail (which might ruin the current sights). Does anyone have any experience with their option?

    Tell me about trail cams.

    I am looking for a motion sensor camera to tell me what is getting into my trash cans. Secondarily, I'd like something that can keep track of cars/license plates, if a porch pirate comes back. I don't want to spend a fortune If I don't have to, but I also appreciate American-made quality...

    Best Bait for Iguanas?

    Anyone else overrun with Iguanas, and found a good bait for trapping them? I have heard "fruit" but have not had much success with grapes or mango.

    Polymer 7.62 NATO?

    The county range looked like a war zone today! Lots of Weird stuff scattered around, including a bunch of blue polymer empties. The head stamp says 7.62x51 and what appears to be “DAG 5H0833.” It looks like these were used in a fluted chamber, H&K? Anyone seen these before? Are they blanks?

    Who makes the perfect IWB holster for Florida?

    Ok, so I took a tumble the other day and my pistol came out unexpectedly -- I noticed it on the ground as I got up and dusted myself off. So now despite having a closet full of holsters, I realize I must continue my quest for the perfect holster. Right now my favorite holster is a comptac...

    What are the best T-shirts for concealed carry?

    The title says it all, what do you find to be the best T-shirts for concealed carry? I've got a long torso, so most T-****s and Polos are too short and expose my belly after a few washes. I've got some random longer concert/dive bar T's that I usually use - but the brand names are washed out...

    Chopped Glock or Sig 320?

    I want a long slide/sight radius (4.5-5 inch barrel) pistol with a short subcompact grip for concealed carry. I was going to cut down a Glock 22 since they are so cheap now, but then I thought about putting a subcompact frame on my Sig 320 -- since the adaptability is why I got it in the first...

    SiCO ASR or Dead Air Key Mo?

    So I finally got my Hybrid out of jail this weekend. My plan was to get an ASR mount and flash hiders. However, it seems like the ASR mounts are sold out everywhere and there are some suggestions that this system has been discontinued. The Silencerco website appears sold out too (you can't...

    Gun rack, or other ways of putting up wall hangers?

    My better half is allowing me to hang up a couple of long guns. While I have plenty of choices, I think I have settled on hanging up a pair of cosmoline crusted mosin's I've got stocked away. I'd like to mount them to the drywall above a doorway. I was thinking of using some sort of...

    SiCo Summertime Kickoff Promo shipping?

    Last summer, Silencerco ran the Summertime Kickoff BOGO promotion. I understood at the time that it might take a while (3-4 mos) for the free can to ship (form 3 to dealer) but it has now been 7-8 months. Did anyone else take advantage of this promotion? And has SiCo shipped?

    Suppressor Sleeves?

    So, what can you tell me about suppressor sleeves/covers? I have burned myself more than once (Note to self: Don't wear shorts, when doing transition drills), and it seems like these may be the answer. Are there features that are more or less desirable?

    Brazil goes shall issue!!!!

    According to multiple news outlets, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday signed a temporary decree making it easier for Brazilians to buy guns, delivering on a campaign promise to overturn strict regulations in a country suffering from a record wave of murders...

    Glass for poverty pony 6.5 Grendel Build

    A 24 inch 6.5 Grendel upper followed me home the other day. I'll cobble it together with some other bits and pieces and I should have a decent long range AR for about $300 (or 500 shots for $1 each, and I get a free gun!). If I don't like it, I'll likely re-barrel in 7.62x39 (I think), or...

    Silencer Cleaning Thoughts and Observations

    I just spent the long weekend soaking a couple of cans in penetrating oil, and other things to get them cleaned out. After this exercise, I think I've learned a couple lessons: 1. I'm not going to shoot cheap Russian Steel cased ammo through my pistol cans anymore. Even though I love the...

    How many trips to the car does it take to get to the range?

    While departing for my last trip to the range, I looked back fondly on the simpler times many years ago when I could fill a range bag and walk to the car. Now it takes me at least three trips to my truck to load up targets, ammo, cooler/snacks and guns. I always have a couple guns I just...

    What load for drones?

    The recent drone swarm attack on the Russian Air Force base in Syria seems to demonstrate a significant change in air power. Insurgents were able to use a swarm of cheap disposable drones to cobbled together from cardboard and lawn mower engines to fly under and through one of the world's...

    Removing old style Glock front sight??

    I have an old trade in G3 glock 22. The front sight is the old press in variety as opposed to the new style with a screw. Does anyone have any recommendations as to how to get this out aside from brute force with a punch and hammer? Please help. My New Years resolution was to get all my...

    What's the Point of an HK MP7 or FN P90?

    One of the latest fads seems to be procuring a smaller PDW that is capable of penetrating body armor better than standard pistol calibers. The HK MP7 and FN P90 seem to be examples 1A and 1B of this fad. Steel core pistol ammo accomplishes the same result, and doesn't require a new platform...
