    800 bucks

    Beretta 390/391/A300 can all be had for that kind of money if you look around. 390s and A300s can be found new for less than that.

    Help with acquiring a suppressor in DFW

    Chuck Ross at Ross precision in Fort Worth or Clark at Cottonwood Armory in Madisonville (cottonwoodarmory.com). Clark built me 2 custom cans that fit over the barrel on my AR-15 and AR-10. they're bigger than most cans but very quiet. Tested one of their new ones over the weekend on a 7 mag and...

    Remington 870 Barrel, 18.5", Tritium Rifle Sights, Fixed MOD Choke, Parkerized

    Doesn't look like the CTD model has the tritium sights.

    Skinning Squrrels

    I use this method for rabbits. Amazingly easy to open packaging for a tasty little critter. Almost like they were made that way and put on this earth for us to eat. Oh wait, they were! I was taught the "step on the tail method" by my grandpa. He would gladly show us how and my grandma would...

    .223 pistols...practical or not?

    I have a 5.56 pistol. 100 yard accuracy from a sling is excellent. Muzzle Blast is fierce. My not so scientific penetration testing was interesting. Same ammo in the pistol and a 16" carbine on 1/4" mild steel plate at 100 yards. The carbine blew right through as you would expect. From the...

    Best Hunting Ammunition?

    I think 45acp is fine as a backup. I'll second the reply above that a cast bullet with a wide meplat will be better than a JHP designed for expansion in softer tissue. Pigs around here are tough critters, and I would lean toward penetration over expansion. In 45, how much expansion do you need...

    Best .22lr Handgun around $500 or Less

    Buckmark. No question. With that budget you can have bells and whistles and still have money left over for ammo, mags mad a holster.

    Current Tax Stamp Wait Time

    I talked to my dealer this week. They heard that the ATF is adding some manpower to help deal with the volume. Supposedly some sort of assistant examiner, but not more examiners. No telling if it will help. Has anyone else heard this?

    Elk Hunting Round Advice

    I've seen 3 elk killled (2 mine, and 1 my buddy's). The longest shot taken was at 180 yards and killed with my 7mm Mag. Shortest was 75 yards, also killed with my 7mm mag. My buddy killed his at 150ish yards with his .30-06. You don't need the latest crazy ultrasuperdupermagnum to kill an...

    Suppressor 1st shot?

    From talking to guys who shoot hogs with suppressors ALL THE TIME (4-5 nights/week), the suppressor noise isn't what spooks them - it's that unmistakeable sound of lead hitting pork. When they hear that and the first little piggie next to them goes down, they're outta there - muzzle noise or...

    Whindham weaponry

    These are the former Bushmaster folks, after Freedom Group shut down the Bushmaster factory, the former owner re-opened it, hired back a bunch of the employees, and renamed it. I saw the Academy ad, and thought it was a pretty good deal for the price.

    Multiple Form 4's?

    I think what the OP is asking is whether multiple form 4s will travel through the process together, potentially making the process faster for the second one. I recently sent in two at once, and I'm hoping I made it as easy on the examiner as possible!

    At this rate, I'll be able to enjoy use of my suppressor by the time I'm old and deaf

    The wait times are killing me. My first one was about 3.5 months. Now waiting on 2 more and about to send another one in. I'm getting to the point where I almost want to keep a steady flow of them going so I'll have something a year from now.

    LEO harassed my wife about CCW this morning

    Much easier here in TX. Law requires we notify, and like others here, I've found that LEOs (well, all but one) were much more courteous after I identified myself, carrying (mostly) or not. I even had the opportunity to meet an LEO in Colorado after going too fast in a poorly posted small...
