    Gunsmithing Remington 700 .223 custom build?

    Hello from Australia ... I'm looking to build up a grunty .223 "back up" (ie, one that's a no brainer to shoot, and that I can toss to a buddy for a weekend) based on a Remington 700 action. Personally, I have never been a huge fan of .223 (my other Rems are in .308, and a VERY heavy '250), but...

    Suppressors Full size USP45 w/ custom barrel and can?

    My dad gave me his USP45 for Christmas and I've been thinking of putting a threaded barrel on it and buying a can. What are the functional differences between the SOCOM 45 and the civilian USP45, besides the threaded barrel? Will there be cycling issues with all that weight on the front of the...
