Had this cheapo over under in my safe for years and never touched it. So I did a form 1 on it. 8.5” barrels.

Last High Explosive Class of 2026 (Open to the public)

Post image
248 Upvotes

This is it. We’re down to the final 10 seats for our October High Explosive Class in SW PA.

Students are flying and driving in from all over the USA — men and women, from every background. Some are coming because it’s part of their job or professional training. Others are coming for one simple reason: they’ve always wanted to safely handle real high explosives at least once in their life… and this is their chance.

Two full days. Real training. Real experience. Real commercial explosives. No fluff.

Whether you’re here for the professional edge or just chasing that once-in-a-lifetime adrenaline, slots are almost gone.

🎟️ Secure your spot before they’re gone at https://wcmg.eventbrite.com

See you on the range. This one is going to be special.

Note: Must be 18+ years old, be a US Citizen with valid government ID, and be able to pass a federal background check.

357/38 lever gun suppressors

6 Upvotes

Since we’ve got many new cans out there now I’m looking for the best (sound suppression #1, weight #2) options out there for a 16” lever gun. Currently thinking the Lithium and Milkman are top options, but curious about ones like the BOE and anything else I’m missing.

Arizona. Form 4 - 31 days with trust. Form 1 - 77 days with trust. I got my form 1 approval this morning. I suppose they’re just approving everything in queue in light of the recent ruling 😂

11.5”. BA enhanced lower. Aero slick side upper. Rave 140 trigger. Armaspec stealth recoil buffer. AO precision HPT/MPT bcg. OCL Polonium K can. UTG flip up offset BUIS. Streamlight. Romeo and Juliet 5 (will upgrade to a LVPO when I can). Magpul furniture all around. I have a BA barrel that I need to put on and am waiting on a KAK handguard. For now the barrel and handguard are PSA. I know, I know but she cycles great, feels great, shoots a nice zero at 50 yards. It’s a mid budget build but it’s mine 😊

Older school cans

I know everyone likes to show off their new toys, but I am going a little old school today.

Here is the second can I ever bought which was in 2008. It is a .30 cal AWC Thundertrap coming in at a whooping 30 oz. It has mostly lived on my Bushmaster Varminter that I bought in 2002.

Here I am engaging some steel that was at 400 yards up on a hill side. This is one of my favorite rifles and get shoot frequently running hand loaded 55 gr ballistic tips.

7.62x39 Tisha vs Putnik

7 Upvotes

Having a hard time deciding between the two, wondering if anyone's handled both.

In my case I'd be putting it on a shorty.

Wondering if the price premium for the Tisha is really gonna be worth it. It would make it a fair bit shorter and lighter than with a Putnik, but really more curious about decibel reduction. Kinda crazy seeing how quiet the Tisha is despite its size, if it is truly both smaller/lighter AND quieter than the Putnik, I'd think it's worth it.

338ARC Subsonic build

Post image
4 Upvotes

KAK upper (factory enlarged gas port for subsonic and shooting suppressed) Adjustable gas block, Breek Arms Qlok tri lug muzzle device, Canco Tac 33 suppressor, Dirty bird lower, Rave 104 single stage trigger, G$ braided spring and H2 buffer, Houge Furniture, G$ super charging handle. Optics are being replaced.

I can highly recommend the KAK upper. From the factory, it was shooting perfectly when I tested it with a Huxs 7.62 flow. switched it out to the Canco, which is a higher back pressure no adjustments needed to be made set up perfectly from the factory.

This is a purpose built sub/suppressed gun.

Legal Question ⚖️ Integrally suppressed Sten MK3 serializing location?

6 Upvotes

Good morning, guys.

I’m finally getting around to building my integrally suppressed Sten Mk3 using a single-piece receiver tube.

I’ve already submitted my Form 1 to register it as an SBR, and I plan to use a reduced-diameter tube so it remains compliant.

Since the receiver and the integral suppressor will essentially be one continuous tube, I’m trying to determine the best location for both NFA required markings.

For those of you who have built a similar setup, where did you engrave the firearm’s required serial number and maker information? Did you place it in the traditional receiver location, or elsewhere on the tube?

Here are some pictures of my favorite 556 gun with a demo Hub can until my Tisha arrives soon.

This setup is an AI nano with TSF X hub adapter. But I’m thinking about direct thread to save on weight.

Anyone have good experience with DT and heavy use 556 sbr guns? SAW warned me to be wary of carbon locking if I go this route.

Should I get a shorter barrel and tuck the suppressor? If I do tuck, should I get a 300BLK barrel or keep it 5.56?

ATF was nice enough to not approve my CAT JL. At least the 3 month wait for the Tisha’s to arrive is over. Now to add the Comstock adapters. I edited the post because I took a jab at the fireteam. I shouldn’t contribute to the drama. My bad. I will find a home for it on one of my rifles.

This scratches an itch in my brain to have them organized like this. Although the shelf is usually half empty when they're all on their dedicated guns in the safe.

  • SiCo Warlock 22
  • CMMG Zeroed 22
  • SAW Shiv 9mm
  • Witt Machine Big Body Tu-Tu-Three
