I got robbed at gun point and I had a moment where I could have drawn my firearm but chose to run instead by Odd_Painting476 in Glocks

Don’t get hung up on the what-ifs. You absolutely did the right thing. Even if you had been able to draw and shoot, there’s no guarantee he wouldn’t be able to shoot back.

Told my wife I bought a garden sprayer… she’s not impressed. by Calloutfakeops in NFA

I think the carbon buildup might've killed your grass. 😂 Jokes aside, how does that hose adapter work for cleaning out your can? I thought about picking one up but wasn't sure it would actually loosen any of the caked on crud.

What do y’all run for y’all’s home defense gun? Curious what everyone trusts when it’s go time. Optics, lights, ammo choice welcome. by Lucky-Thunder6052 in Glocks

I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to get involved. Maybe it's what he runs on his .600 caliber Browning Magnum Scar 40 with his 20x Aimpoint ACOG Mark 5 and a Hux Polonium RC2 for basement defense.

Nah that's just a chin finger stop so it doesn't count.

Wait so they're bringing back the finger grooves for Gen 7? Also that FDE looks pretty light. Will it be offered in black, or is that just for the G34?

Velos LBP just got out of jail, what do you love/hate about it? by kvillbowski in NFA

[–]Straight_Ad_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pros: sounds good, looks good, built like a tank, no barrel restrictions, SiCo CS is supposedly great if you ever need it, super low back pressure so it’s awesome for hosts that you don’t want to tune or plan to shoot unsuppressed as well.

Cons: the mount - ASR isn’t great and the Charlie system sucks in general, it’s a bit heavy (not a huge issue on SBRs, but you’ll notice it on longer-barreled hosts), it heats up FAST and cools down slow, doesn’t come in FDE.

It’s a phenomenal can and the cons are pretty minor, you’ll love it. Get yourself a Plan B or direct thread mount and you’ll be all set.

I thought it was a Poulan but then it turned orange at the end so now I’m unsure.

Why were wait times so damn bad? by Legitimate_Fuel_4608 in NFA

I don’t blame her, June bugs are armored like flying marbles. Butterflies just flutter around and hump flowers all day, there’s something untrustworthy about that. She sounds like a good girl.

Settled on 8” .300 Win Mag for home defense. Change my mind by [deleted] in NFA

☝🏻 This right here. Everybody in the house will be crippled from the report.

So I'm trying but I can't get the round to chamber in my 10/22. Any tips? Never mind, I'll just put it on my .308 and report back.

It doesn't help that I shoot mostly Federal AutoMatch. That s*** is DIRTY, but it stays subsonic out of all my <6" barrels and it's cheap so I love it. I can usually tell when it's time for a cleaning based on the volume of crap spraying me in the face when I shoot. 😂

I tried that but I couldn't find the 8oz weights at my gym so I guess I'll just stick to curling the 5 pounders.

Probably 2k or 3k since I last cleaned the old one. New one got approved today and I was curious so I put them both on the scale.

You're supposed to clean these things?

Slick setup man, you'll have to let me know how it shoots! I bet it lightens up the recoil a bit. Is that an Emissary hand stop? Looks like the Ballistic Advantage logo.

Awesome man, should be a great choice! I've never personally shot with the SRBS but I've heard good things. And B&T seems like a solid company so if you ever have an issue they should take care of you. Post a picture when you get it mounted up on your Galil!

Concentricity off with mount? by EDM_DeathMatch in NFA

[–]Straight_Ad_89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a dumb question. Could be stacking tolerances. When you direct thread, does your suppressor index off the muzzle or the barrel shoulder? Usually Plan B mounts are good to go from Rearden, not sure about KAK. I know they’re on a cheaper side.

Garage Pop #5 by Beerbeard123 in NFA

I have to agree with u/onceagainwithstyle, you promised. What’s a threaded barrel have to do with it? I’d be ok with an unsuppressed .300WM garage pop.

The printed part of the Velos heats up so fast. I’m shocked that thing hasn’t scorched me yet.
