    SBR-Ing a AR pistol via Form 1. Anyone done one lately?

    Do a trust. I just did a couple of cans and 1 was 7 days, the other three went throug together and were just over 3 weeks. my personal trust (not a SShop trust). I'm going to do a form 1 soon on a rifle lower. My understanding is you need to have "available" the original configuration that you...

    Suppressors Ocm 5 on 6arc

    not sure if it helps but I bought a Dead Air Lazarus 6 so I could try one of the 6mm variants in the future. Haven't looked into it enough to know if ARC, MAX or some other variant might win out for me. I guess even a 6mm CM can be shot thru it.

    45-70 SUBS - 405gr LFP/Titegroup

    I've been working on some 340gr (Lee 457-340-F) and 490gr (Lyman 457406) cast powder coated rounds. My two powders I've been playing with are VV 3N37 and IMR 4227. So far I've had good results with the following: 340gr w/ 19.0gr 4227 ~975fps (garmin Xero) w/ 12.5gr 3N37 ~965fps...

    EoTech Vudu 3-9x is in the House !

    I am looking forward to seeing what it can do. Like you my first thought was to throw it on a lever gun with a red dot but then if they come out with a MIL/FFP I would use that straight up on an AR15 and I think it would be great (compact, lightweight, more usable mag range compared to a 1-8 or...

    Questions for those with SilencerCo, Dead Air, and Banish suppressors

    do you plan to shoot it often (or at all?) without the can? when I first started buying muzzle devices I got some brakes, some flash hiders, etc. But now that I have a few cans I really don't care about what muzzle device is on the rifle, as I mostly shoot with the can on the rifle. Just bought...

    Questions for those with SilencerCo, Dead Air, and Banish suppressors

    skip the Banish. No problems with the other two companies for the lightweight cans. I have the nomad 30 and Nomax and will probably get a Ti XC in the future, but I also have a bunch of the dead air mounts so I tend to stay in that ecosystem. capital armory and silencershop are both the...

    What is ATF wait time for a suppressor?

    so simple even a caveman can find the answer: https://www.atf.gov/resource-center/current-processing-times it's all right there from the horses mouth. I've had 1 in the past month that was 5 days (personal trust- efile) and three submitted together that were just over a month (same trust and...

    2025 SHOT Show Optics

    Thank you for an overview of what's new in optics at the show without reading thru 20 threads. I know it's probably not the right forum for it but with all the interest in lever guns these days, did you happen to hear anyone talking about making an illuminated scout scope with decent glass...

    Precision Rifle Gear New Athlon Rangecraft Chronograph-Garmin Xero Killer?

    I agree. The company I work for does all of our manufacturing in Taiwan. Almost every competitor is in China. Our product quality is much higher, their prices are cheaper. I don't know if there are any parts that we source from China for the manufacturing but I tend to think it is minimal, but I...

    Precision Rifle Gear New Athlon Rangecraft Chronograph-Garmin Xero Killer?

    love my Garmin and best money I've spent on shooting gear in a while. my only other comment is those that think Taiwan = China, haven't been paying attention.

    Rifle Scopes New EOTech 3-9x32 SFP Opinion Thread

    16oz including the mount would make it a great lightweight option for anything under 600 yards would be my guess. Use the red dot for anything sub 100 yards then switch to the magnified for anything beyond that, dial mag for distance needs. just as a comparison, the VCOG 1-8x with mount is...

    2025 Eotech VUDU Super Short 3-9x32 SFP

    Since there aren't any illuminated reticle scout type optics on the market any more (for mounting on a lever gun) I think this is will be a pretty cool setup. Sounds like it's going to have decent glass, good illumination, light weight, red dot that you can mount at 45 or 12:00 and...

    Subsonic lever gun caliber

    How do you like your Big Horn? Now that I'm playing with the big bore stuff (Marlin Dark with Dead Air Primal), I keep looking at a BHA White Lightning with some black furniture. That with some subsonic loads and a big can sounds like fun. what can are you running? I looked a while ago but...

    Subsonic lever gun caliber

    So for the OP if you really want expanding subsonic 45-70 bullets (or other calibers for that matter), Maker bullets is the place to go if you reload. https://makerbullets.com/proddetail.php?prod=45-70-500S Their stuff is all specifically designed to expand at subsonic velocities. 45-70, 300...

    Subsonic lever gun caliber

    I keep thinking a Big Horn Armory 89 White Lightning would be a cool gun to have a can on, but not sure who makes one that would work. My Primal will go up to .46.
