eForm 4 submitted Jan 25, 2023 Still waiting 319 days later.:fire: Silencer Shop says to 8 months, with 179 days average.:fire::fire::fire: I was hoping to have it for deer season this year. With only a month left, I'm not holding my breath that I have it by...

I agree with all posted, but will add my experience with my newly acquired Bushmaster upper. Shoots great with Hornady Black. I gave Sub-X a try wanting to use it, hunting suppressed. (The suppressor is still in NFA jail for a few more months.) The Sub-X would not cycle the action. Gas port...

I just this week finally got around to topping off a .450 for this coming deer season. Wanting a side charger, I had been watching uppers for a while. Out of stock, in stock. Full price, on sale. Etc., etc. from BCA. I looked at Midway, at their AR Stoner brand. Lo and behold they had what...

You probably don’t need to be told, but cherish his friendship. Get as many stories as you can from him to pass on to later generations. If that is what it takes, I’d take him an apple fritter every couple weeks. Just for the stories. Wyman

Actually I have a $10 NCO Samurai sword that my dad bought at a yard sale. My safe queen is a P08 Luger that my dad bought. The story is second hand, but almost his actual words… Long before I was born, he worked at C&S Bank. Left there in ‘81 fairly high ranking at the branch level. I digress…...

Several years ago, I went through all of my guns and filled out tags to hang on each. They are marked with make, model, & serial number. I put the date on it each time I clean it. And I also marked it with what I (or my father if I remember) paid for it. And also the current blue book value...

ditto. My father is fully to blame for my affliction. Wyman

Remington HTP. I have a couple Star BMs, and this was the only jhp that they would cycle out of about a dozen assorted loads. Wyman

The 1 I’d love to own is 1 of the 3 Lugers produced in .45 ACP for American Trials. Then there was a 1 of, double barrel bolt action, that I saw at the NRA museum in Virginia. I don’t remember the chambering. But it did have double triggers. You could shoot twice and one racking of the bolt...

I’m wanting to load some .300 Blackout with 165 gr Sierra Gameking HPBT. But my problem is that my Sierra book predates the Blackout. And the only Whisper loads are for single shot pistol. I’d be much appreciative if anyone could post a picture, or a scan, of that page in their book. Thanks, Wyman

https://www.smokecomposites.com/stocks They have as low as 3.9 ounces. But for the cost, if you’re not going lightweight everywhere, I don’t see the point. Magnesium, or skeletonized, receivers. Titanium parts throughout. Then do it. Otherwise the balance will start to get off. Wyman

I want to say I was about 2. I remember my dad holding me up, as well as the gun. The gun was an M1 Carbine. Wyman

For it shooting low, file the front sight down. That (or replace with a shorter if possible) is all any gunsmith will do. Wyma

I do this for .300 BO now. With plans to do it in a few other calibers. Yes you can buy just the seating die. But what I’ve done is to buy Hornady sets. I put the size die away for a rainy day and mark the seating die for the bullet it’s set for. Buying the Hornady set, you get the rebate for...

Sell a firearm? Can you do that? I don’t know quite how that works. My transactions just go 1 way. Wyman
