Quote: MCgunner -- if you're still around this thread -- do you have the fixed or adjustable sights on that Black Widow with which you do such incredible 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...

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...

I would suggest one that is econimical bur heavy duty, of good steel, (I Prefer SS, though most afficianados do not), heavy enough for bush/brush whacking, foot hold in the cliff digging, easy to pull and put back, Long enough that the whacking doesn't put your knuckles in the stickers/thorns...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Thought I would tell you that I have had a Black Widow for about 20 years, and love it. Purchased the WMR cylinder as an afterthought, so had to send the pistol in to get it fitted. Worth every penny. You can store the cylinders in plastic 35mm film cans. A little piece of fluffy foam in the...

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...

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.

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...

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 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...

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 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 Hi: Been loading about 25 years, but not like a competitor. I load 500 or a thousand rounds, of what I want, and use them for the next five or ten years. 9mm, .44, .45, 30-06, 30-30, and looking to do .223 someday soon. Will make some...

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.

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?

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.
