    Isn't the forward assist on an AR a dumb idea?

    When you chamber a round prior to going into harms way, it's good to do a brass check. Don't want to hear a click when you really need a bang. The FA helps ensure the bolt is fully forward after the brass check.

    panzer arms ar-12 suppressor

    What is your thread pitch? If they are the same as a Saiga 12 or Vepr external threads, silencerco's Salvo 12 will work.

    AR barrel heat, how much is too much?

    The USMC training book (FMST 108) lists the maximum effective rate of fire for M16/M4 as 45 rpm in semi. The sustained rate of fire in semi is listed as 12-15 rpm. In a nutshell, you can shoot 12-15 rpm all day long without cooking a mil spec barrel.

    IWI Tavor Question

    Looked at the description on buds, it appears the THRD refers to the free state version with threaded barrel. They make another version with a permanently attached muzzle brake for the less fortunate/free.

    Ultrasonic Cleaning

    I've had a crest ultrasonic tank for years. It came with concentrated solution. I have also used dawn and water with similar results. The problem isn't finding an aluminum safe solution. It's that aluminum itself is not really ultrasonic cleaning safe. One of the tests to check the ultrasonic...

    What if I see a gun that was stolen from me?

    Contact the pd that has jurisdiction where the firearms are located. They can investigate, check the s/n's in ncic and recover them. You mentioned they were taken a while ago. It's also important to update your contact info as needed, new phone numbers or address, with the pd you reported them...

    Nice groups.... Now that the kimber vs CZ part is out of the way (bench shooting), let's get to the Air force vs Marines part. Shoot some prone, sitting, kneeling, standing groups and post the pics.

    Noise & Muzzle Blast: 308 Win w/ 20¨ Barrel

    I have 308 bolt guns with 20 and 26 inch barrels. I never noticed one as being louder than the other. Whatever difference there is would be even less between 20 and 22 inch barrels. The 20 inch barrel would be handier in the field. If it's a good deal and you like the gun, go for it.

    Colt LE6920 question

    Colt shows them still in production or at least for sale. By older ones I meant ones made during the 94-04 ban when you had to be special to buy a new one. https://www.colt.com/Catalog/Rifles/LE6920-Series

    Colt LE6920 question

    The older ones had it on the passenger side of the magwell. I don't think the new ones have those markings.

    9mm carbine

    With a heavy buffer the recoil in a 9mm AR is pretty low... about the same or slightly less than 5.56 recoil. As far as shooting with that port goes, lefty is definitely safer. If you must shoot right handed, consider getting one of those heavy duty recoil pads/shields that strap over your...

    Does suppressed usually drop velocity down a little? (300blk)

    Your velocity won't drop, if anything it will slightly increase.

    i.d. .22 lr

    Looks it's four parts of a circle with four cross hair looking lines in between. If so, it's SK. It's good ammo. I'm not sure how to post a picture, but here's a link to some...
