Suppressors Narrowed down to 3

Well, take that up with @TBACRAY and @Zak Smith
There’s nothing to “take up” with anyone. I wasn’t asking any questions. And I damn sure wouldn’t expect either of them to come on here and openly discuss their private financials in regards to facility/production expansion. They know what their backlog is. It’s not a mystery.

Suppressors Narrowed down to 3

It’s not hard to “obtain” a TBAC suppressor. If nobody has what you want in stock, call Blake and order one directly from them. They might have it in stock, if not, they’ll put you on the list for the next production run of them.
Bullshit. Let me first say I have some TBAC cans and they are good suppressors. But they are damn sure hard to get. From the website, a can ordered “today” can be expected to be shipped mid to late 2026. Fuck that nonsense. And as for dealers, I’ve checked with Silencer Shop several times and they just laugh when you ask. One of my best friends makes the most popular action in the PRS so I’m familiar with what goes along with outgrowing your production abilities. I’ve also seen how that problem gets solved. There is a breakdown somewhere and it’s not because of attention to detail and pride in craftsmanship.

Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

Blackrock is probably more powerful than the US government at this point since pretty much they have the money of all the politicians.
Always have been. Since Wilson in 1913 and the (((Fedral Reserve)))

We have been literally owned by Banks’s who issued us all a social security number, because you’re now a debt-slave to those who own us. It matters not if you believe this, because those who are in power believe it. Maritime Law. Look it up.

If Trump never audits the Fed, I guarantee you he is owned by them and all of this is Kabuki Theater.

We are all in our own Truman Show. You best be getting prepared physically and spiritually. You need a personal relationship with our Heavenly Father.

EDIT: this isn’t directed at you, but all of us.

Pin and weld suppressor?

I think I'm picking up what you're putting down, I'm just not certain what problem you are trying to solve.
I started this thread just to ask a couple of questions because I was pondering a little project that was fueled by nothing more than boredom. My end goal is to have a dedicated, suppressed rig that is as compact as possible and shoots smoothly with a broad range of ammunition.

Screaming Deals on Armalite Barrels

Man... I've been feeling pretty rotten about a muzzle device I put on a little while back... I would almost hate to even admit to the community what I did... But I got into a frenzy... And I wasn't listening to reason within myself... I previously struggled with this muzzle device... And no matter what combination I tried I couldn't get it right... Well I finally found a decent combination, but after I put rocksett on it, I couldn't get the same time out of it, so I up'd the torque by 1 lb until I did... By the numbers, it is over torqued... I haven't had a chance to have it out yet to see if it's actually had an effect... But I'm not feeling that great about it...

I did put a jag down the barrel with a heavy patch... I couldn't feel any constriction .. but would you really feel that? I don't know...

The device is a 5/8-24 Rearden R2S/ ht, on a KAK 'mr. Blonde' 9" 300 blk (stainless) with Griffin shims.
What torque spec did you use? The upper end of the torque specs that I've seen is 30 ft-lbs. If your target was 30 and you went to 31, I don't think I'd worry about it.

Good .223 DMR/MPVO Optic These Days?

Hey all,

I know this question has been asked a couple times and I've been reading through some recent threads, but hoping for folks with experience on a few of these optics to chime in. In short I have a proven 20" SAMR-ish .223 gun that I love but just haven't shot much in the past few years.

So I pilfered the old school mildot SWFA 3-9 I had on it and ending up selling that along with a .308 bolt gun to a buddy getting into hunting.

Well I'd like to get an optic back on the rifle and I figured there's probably something out there these days for around $1K that'd have some nice updates compared to the old reliable SWFA. And wouldn't you know it there's just as many trade off's now as there was back then.

I'd be curious if anyone had any $.02 on my considerations here or if I'm missing something I'd appreciate it. Use case is primarily a bit of target shooting, coyote hunting, and maybe a gas gun match from time to time.

Things I like (for this gun):

FFP
2-10x-ish magnification
Length around 13" or less
Weight around 25oz or less
Illumination
Zero Stops / Locking Turrets
Not super busy reticles
Adjustable Parallax (nice to have but not required for this gun)

Things I don't like (for this gun):
Unreliable things
Heavy / Long Scopes
Super busy reticles / should be hunter friendly


I have a range for sure but this is what I'm considering:

_________________________________________

Leupold Mark 4HD M5C3 FFP TMR Illuminated
~$1000

My initial replacement thought. Love the size/weight, features, reticle is acceptable for me.
Concerned about tracking and reliability based on Rokslide tests for the money. Conflicting reports on glass quality for the price.

_________________________________________

Steiner H6Xi 2-12x42mm STR-MIL FFP
~$1500

Love the size/weight, features, glass is probably excellent, bit spendy (diminishing returns?)
Reticle is a bit busy for me and feel it might get lost hunting

_________________________________________


Trijicon Credo 2-10x36 FFP w/ Red MRAD
~$1000

Good size/weight if just a touch long, Japanese glass
Reticle a bit busier than I'd like, unsure if better that the Leupy for the same price?

_________________________________________


Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 2-12x42mm AHMR2 FFP IR MIL
~$400

Like the size/weight, features, generally like the reticle, ranging capability is really cool, cheap means more money rolled into scope on a different rifle faster, or less buyer's remorse if someone ever comes out with a banger MPVO.
Don't love a 1 MOA dot, biggest concerns is on quality and reliability, glass is said to be OK, seems like a dice roll.

_________________________________________

Vortex PST Gen 2 2-10x FFP Mil
~$750

Like the size/weight, generally like the reticle, cheaper than other options, Vortex warranty
Discontinued/Somewhat Hard To Find, glass said to be OK

_________________________________________

Bushnell LRTSi 3-12 FFP
~$800?

Like the weight, a touch long, G3 tree is ok, said to have great Japanese glass, should have bought one years ago during the blow out.
Discontinued/ Very Hard To Find, read a few horror stories about Bushnell warranties on these and replacing them with worse options

_________________________________________

Maven RS1.2 - 2.5-15x44 FFP
$~1100

Excellent performance in Rokslide tests, Good glass, good hunting reticle, great magnification range
Definitely a long boy, a touch on the heavy side, temptation to slap on a bolt-gun hunting rifle instead

DOGE finds Treasury Dept loses 1 Billion dollars a week to fraud and corruption: Deep State Judge blocks exposure

we knew the corruption was bad but the structure and size everywhere is shocking. i considered myself unshockable,but....
there just has to be a stop put to this. sorry,but staying "in the law" just isn't gonna do it. the judges as a big part of the law,are the main instigators of this resistance. some correct has to be done or the damage will not get repaired,if it can be.
