Re: Residential Security Door Suggestions?

Outswing is a terrible idea. When no one is home a cordless grinder with a cutoff wheel and about 2 minutes and you have the hinges cut off and you are in the house. When you’re not home they could kick in an Inswinging door in 5 seconds so what’s your point? Besides, I’ve yet to read a news story ...

Re: .300 Blk heavy mold for subs

I know he was using it for 308 subs but not sure on his 300 blk. I do remember he had to set the bullet way back in the case to get then to feed correctly due to the round fat nose on them.

Re: Does Parking Lot Law also include adult and juvenile prisons

My aunt works at a state adult prison, from what she tells me every non employee car is searched and if a firearm is found you are not allowed past the gate at the highway even if you follow their policy of having it in a lockbox inside a locked vehicle. I asked about the legality and from what she ...

Re: .300 Blk heavy mold for subs

Friend of mine works up his own 300 blk loads, some use a 220-230 grain bullet, can't remember off the top of my head, and I think he uses trail boss powder a lot for his heavy sub loads. Gives high volume without too much pressure.

Re: Santa's Wonderland, College Station 30.06?

Went last year and it wasn't posted carried my xdm with no problems. On Saturday night it was way too crowded though probably a 6 hour wait for the hayride and lights.

Re: Must Barrell Ends Be Threaded To Accept A Suppressor?

Sitting on a deer stand right now, and if suppressors were to be deregulated the 270 that I have with me would have a can screwed on it. It wouldn't make it quiet but it might at least take a little of the bang out so my ears wouldn't ring the rest of the day after a shot.

Re: Best Gun for Home Defense

I’d be OK with pistol, AR, or shotgun, but my biggest fear is actually doing more damage to my hearing by discharging a gun inside my house, which is why my primary HD weapon has become a suppressed G17 loaded with 147 grain subsonics. All my ARs can also be suppressed, but they’re still a lot loud...

Re: Must Barrell Ends Be Threaded To Accept A Suppressor?

I do have an adapter for my 10/22 that slides over the barrel and has lock nuts behind the front sight that I have used with a friend's supressor. It has standard 1/2 x 28 threads on the adapter. I don't think I would trust it on anything more powerful than a 22 though. As for the glock you also hav...

Re: Best Gun for Home Defense

On the low percentage shot the limitation is real, I'd not likely take that shot no matter what I was armed with. I seriously doubt that the BG would be a nice still target while holding someone. As for the range with the buckshot I keep loaded range isn't an issue. I have killed deer with a 20 gaug...

New AR sight in

So I just got a new AR put together, I mounted a vortex red dot but haven't had time to sight it in yet. I have never had a red dot on anything yet, with a 4moa dot it should cover about 2 inches of target at 50 yards where I plan on sighting it for. What is an acceptable group for a red dot, I'm no...

Re: I Want to Build A Rifle.

I just put the optic on my build, used an Anderson lower I caught on sale for 30$, Anderson parts kit in the lower, I do plan on putting a Joe bob trigger kit in it to eliminate some of the creep. After that it has a radical 16" mid length upper I caught on sale around July 4 for 280$ complete ...

Re: BACK POCKET CARRY

I carried in my back pocket for 3 years pretty much every day, got used to it pretty fast but I did have to specifically buy pants that would fit it.i have a wallet holster that worked well. Now I work for an ISD so no more work carry. I still carry it running to the grocery store but on weekends I'...

Re: Millenial Anti-Theft Device

15 and 17 aren't even really mellinials, they are whatever comes next. I'm technically a mellinial but I don't see myself as acting entitled and ignorant of the way the world works. I was on the very front end of the mellinials though. Also I drive a standard almost every day.

Re: Paul Harrell video regarding "hyper ammo"

I admit to not just shooting up my sd ammo on a whim. In his example of at a water bottle I might or might not shoot, a major factor would be whether or not i had ear protection with me. As far as round selection I carry 175gr critical duty in my 40 based on different tests I have seen. It feeds gre...
