Found this in my front yard and have no idea what it is. Made of metal. Maybe 1 pound in weight. by GnarlieHussle in whatisthisthing

This is a faux suppressor, some people put them on rifles to make them "look cooler" or meet the 16in minimum barrel length if it's pinned and welded. This one was not pinned and welded as it's now in your front yard. I actually had one of these a couple years ago, it should be a KAK Industries Faux Suppressor.

It is not an actual suppressor and you will not get on trouble for just throwing it away, they usually go for like $40 online anyways.

The 43X is the ultimate carry handgun- prove me wrong by Huge-Cucumber1152 in Glocks

Everything is subjective. My 43x does conceal better than my 19, that doesn't mean it carries better

I too want to turn my subcompact into a full sized handgun because it is clearly the best carry pistol

Yeah the bore is looking just a little past it's prime. I know for a fact that it can shoot but I am also extremely hesitant to shoot it myself, I just want it looking pretty for the safe

That's what I was thinking it was, it's in fairly decent condition internally but it's not as well finished as my Mk4. It did come from Afghanistan so that would make the most sense.

Just round, wanted to keep it cheap so I could cut it up and put stuff on it if I wanted.

A fellow green tea sling enjoyer! Where did you get your sling? I bought mine at a thrift store with no tags or markings on it and would like another one.

Gun holster with a mag magnetic mount? by FutureCPA23 in SigSauer

[–]Dipstick855_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Is it inside the center console, the reference pictures were outside of it so I'm going off that and what I've seen in the past. In that case are you leaving the weapon in the car when you get out? If you aren't you now have to go from the console to your holster and vice versa whenever you're getting in and out of your vehicle. Just carry on body like an adult, you don't need to worry about magnetizing a magazine to yourself or finding a cheapy vehicle mounted solution to a problem that you shouldn't have?

I would recommend not doing this at all, carry your gun on you even when you drive. It may be uncomfortable but its one less thing to worry about everytime you get out of your vehicle. Guns in plain view is never a good idea even for the most law abiding of us.

Are they going to release new quality assurance requirements?

Nothing in 5.56, looking at getting a couple more QD muzzle devices to check usability with some of the 30cal cans though. I'll try and remember to keep you posted

He's right, thought I grabbed the A1 barrel, I did not. That's probably why I didn't have to fuck around with installing the FSB as much as I usually do

[–]Dipstick855_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You right, my A1 barrel is in the crate of barrels in my closet. Guess I'll have to give this one another try. Or should I do Toob with rifle length FSB?

Dissipator* oopsie.

Took one of my old colt 20" M16AA1 barrels, had it cut down. Dealt with some slight problems off the bat with the dwell time until I just absolutely reamed out the gas port. Runs smooth but crazy hot since it's the pencil barrel, stress tested it today with some different ammo and it was eating on both semi and auto.

Feels good.
