Thread Protectors or affordable muzzle device recommendation?

So I took some forum advice and send off my ancient SDN-6 suppressor to be re-made into a more modern Ranger 7 and I'm going direct thread. I have a a bunch of hosts. Both 1/2-28 and 5/8-24.

I found in my parts bin flash hiders for half of them. But maybe I just need thread protectors for the rest? The whole point is to protect the threads and also still allow me to shoot at the range if I don't feel like using the suppressor that day.

What about the AR builds that are just for hunting? Any reason for a muzzle device at all?

I don't want to thread lock, index, or even go wrench tight so I can easily screw on the Ranger 7 when it's range time.

Doesn’t include the slave pins because I can’t find them.

Anybody have larue LT666x06-ADP manfrotto to pic adapter?

Anybody have larue LT666x06-ADP manfrotto to pic adapter? or suggestions on how to run a QD system to a manfrotto 322RC2 so i can QD a plate and leave it in the tripod so I don't have to permanently mount something to my gun

Kind of old tech so someone prob moved to arca and has one sitting in their closet. Sell me one, link for reference.

Flash Hider vs Compensator for QD suppressor mount.

Hello All! New Precision Shooter here.

Are QD flash hiders detrimental to accuracy compared to QD muzzle brakes when used with a can?

I am running a DA Nox on my 18” 5.56 SPR. The rifle is always suppressed w/ my Nomad TI XC. Should I switch to the DA comp?

I know direct thread would be optimal for precision, but I want to be able to move this can between rifles.

Thanks.

Report: Brace for ‘Unrest’ if Donald Trump Wins, Democrats Warn


Americans should prepare for “unrest’ if former President Donald Trump completes the greatest political comeback in modern American politics, Democrats told the Wall Street Journal on Monday.

The potential for Democrats to perpetrate political violence undermines their narrative that Republicans, and especially the America First movement, are a threat to democracy.

“I think there’ll be some violence. I think there’ll be workplace fights. There’ll be fights at kids’ birthday parties. I think they’ll be protests and will turn violent,” Mark Halperin recently told Tucker Carlson.

Resistance groups, according to the Journal’s Joshua Chaffin and Valerie Bauerlein, believe citizens should be “bracing for unrest” if Trump wins:

Across America, more than a dozen progressives in various positions of influence told The Wall Street Journal that they are dreading the prospect of Trump’s return to power, and dismayed that half the country might see a completely different reality than they see. Some are bracing for unrest. On a recent evening, more than 200 people joined a Zoom meeting titled Mass Training For Women’s Safety Teams—hosted by a Women’s March veteran who noted its timing amid “escalating political violence.”
Others are channeling their nervousness into action: They are planning to attend Women’s Marches scheduled in Washington and beyond on the Saturday before the election. In Boston, they are joining pill-packing parties, where volunteers fill boxes with abortion kits to mail to women in red states with strict limits. “We feel like we’re doing something,” said Erin Gately, a 47-year-old physician assistant who last time took to the streets to protest after Trump’s election, but says this time she would focus on tangible actions like protecting reproductive rights.

Laurie Woodward García, a South Florida activist, founded People Power United during Trump’s presidency to champion progressive causes, and, in her words, “stand up to fascism.” Her biweekly online seminars, some scheduled for after the election, explore the consequences if a President Trump were to enact Project 2025, a conservative policy agenda he has distanced himself from. Each session has drawn about 500 viewers.

“We’ve looked at different countries,” Melissa Fiero, a Democrat activist told the Journal. “I really think it’s going to be that bad if he wins.”

Halperin described how some Democrats might react, outside of violence, if Trump defeats Vice President Kamala Harris. “It will be the cause of the greatest mental health crisis in the history of the country,” Halperin told Carlson:

I think tens of millions of people will question their connection to the nation, their connection to other human beings, their connection to their vision of what their future for them and their children could be like. And I think that it will require an enormous amount of access to mental health professionals. I think it’ll lead to trauma in the workplace, … I think there’ll be alcoholism. There’ll be broken marriages.

Why so many ziess s3 for sale?

Why are we seeing so many ziess s3 for sale? Are they not holding up and tracking? Is the glass not that great what would they compare with? Also seems to be a fair amount of zco forsale what’s the deal with so many of them being sold? Maybe someone just spent to much money on an impulse buy as a new shooter and they just don’t want to sit in that much money invested in a scope. I’m looking to upgrade my optics a couple of hunting with longer shots, and some more for dialing shooting long range steel and PRs nrl style shooting.

Vectronix Customer Support

I hate to bash but has anyone had problems getting ahold of Vectronix. I have a brand new pair of the Vector X 12x42 SMRS and tried to perform a firmware update and these binos will now not power on. I have replaced the CR123A thinking it could have been just the battery doubted that. I have reached out to Vectronix and gotten only one email in the past week. Does anyone have a number to call. Pretty sad spending almost 3k on a pair of binos and not being able to get ahold of anyone.

Handguard too long

Hey guys, I have a 16" AR that l want to setup to run my new suppressor. Currently l have a long SLR keymod handguard on it with a mostly recessed linear comp. I want to put a taper mount on it but the can is too big to recess on the handguard. Basically the handguard is just a touch too long if you see what l mean.

The easy fix would be a new handguard but my lovely state now has banned it all. 😭

I could cut back the handguard but I'm trying to avoid it because there is no clean way to do this one without a bunch of jagged edges because it has so many holes everywhere.

So... Does anyone have experience with a barrel extender like this:https://www.infiniteproductsolutions.com/barrel-extensions/

It's obviously not ideal to stack tolerances but l don't see why it would be a problem in this application. I'm (ass)uming they are bored larger than the caliber and not rifled which gives a bit of clearance. I only need 1 inch and l could rokset it in place and get a taper mount on it. My can is 9mm or 35 cal on a .223 cal bore. In my eyes this gives a lots of fudge factor for potential misalignment. I still don't think their should be much of any though but that seems like a good size buffer to make you feel better.

Do you guys think this could be a decent plan?

Ammo ID?

Early monday morning, my neighbor's car was stolen. It was a crazy chain of robberies, stolen cars, high speed police chase, with the bad guys ultimately getting away. The neighbor isn't a gun person, but said they had rifles. Police recovered the car a few hours later, and there were several boxes of ammo in the car. He snapped a photo. I can't tell what caliber is, any ideas? Looks hefty.
