I ordered a dovetail optics plate off of AliExpress

It was only 18.00 shipped
I haven't found! anyone willing to mill it
It's not that big of a deal to use a plate.
I read they hold up fine.

A local auction is coming up & I saw this


I thought it would be a decent one to put a muffler on. Then I looked them up to see what they are selling for. $$$$

There are several bolt action 22’s at the same auction that I am thinking that maybe I can buy one on the cheap & thread a barrel.

What is s the going rate for barrel threading in you fellas areas ?

 

[Hoser]

We can’t play with cans but barrel threading is usually $150 here.
Price dependent it might just be cheaper to buy a new .22 with a threaded muzzle like a savage mk.2 then you don’t have to F with an older model where extra mags cost as much as the original rifle did

 

[JimBear]

I have 3 semi auto 22’s that could be threaded but I want a bolt action to put a muffler on.
I am thinking a $50 - $75 older rifle will serve well. I may just get a single shot if they go for peanuts.

I can buy long guns at auction & don’t have to prick with the paperwork like on new purchases.

I picked up this very nice Glock 23 awhile back for $385.00 out the door. I've never been a fan of .40 factory loads but I figured I would see what I could do with reloads. Already have a mold, dies, and brass so why not. As expected, the throat on this barrel is pretty snug, I had to seat the Lee 175 grain slugs to 1.098 which is .020 shorter than what most data calls for. My aim is to produce something akin to a .38-40, so I'm not going anywhere close to max charge.

I tried 3.8 grains of Hodgdon HP-38 ,which is .4 below the starting charge for a 180 grain plated bullet. This load so far functions 100%, has excellent accuracy, and kicks out empties just a couple of feet away. The bore is amazingly clean, with no signs of leading at all. It clocks a very consistent 780 fps across my Chrono, which is about what I was aiming for. I think there might be more .40's in my future!

I ordered 5 of the new ets omega glock 19 mags

I have the old version they hsve been perfectly reliable.

 

[FergusonTO35]

I use the ETS 7 round mags in my Glock 42. Only thing is, they won't lock in place with all 7 rounds loaded and slide closed since they are jamming 7 rounds in the same space as the factory 6 round mag. Not a big deal since I carry two factory mags for reloads. Gonna buy some ETS mags for my Glock 23.

I bought 4 glock 19 original old style ets mags around 5 year's ago loaded them up and kind of forgot about them until last summer
I put a 9mm barrel in my glock 23 and all the mags worked perfectly no issues at all.

This is my crow shooter. Little Savage .22. It is a close range tack driver. I apologize for the picture, I can’t get it to stand up. Silencerco Sparrow on the muzzle.

I’m not a big savage guy but I bet have atleast 30k rounds through my mark 2 and I’ve only had to replace mags as they wear out.
Are you guys allowed to use suppressors on hunting or farm/ varmint rifles?

As far as big game, I know suppressors are not allowed here in Georgia. As far as farm, private property use I’m not sure. They’re probably not legal to use but I can’t imagine a Lawman coming here and saying I can’t use it in my backyard when it’s Ok to shoot the rifle. I just have to be 500 ft from the nearest occupied building in my county to shoot a gun.

Totally depends on your state. Some states they are banned entirely, others have no laws on them as long as you comply with federal law regarding tax and registration. I live in Kentucky, and here you can use a can for any lawful purpose including hunting. A lot of people I know have purchased silencers so they can discretely take care of garden and chicken house raiders in town.

Nice
I wore out a 4" 19 shooting mainly midrange wadcutter reloads back in the 1980s.
We shot 500 rnd. a week of a mix of .22, 38/9, and .45. Shooting a double action is rewarding.
My favorite revolver is a S&W mod 17 6" TTT with a good action job. Late 70s manufacture. Shot many targets, snakes, pinecones and tin cans with that one. I Have the mod18 4" too.

My favorite revolver to shoot is a Model 10 with a heavy barrel. There's just something about a K Frame.

The ruger rxm is on the way to 300.00 https://www.bfgoutfitters.com/produ...=searchlistings&utm_campaign=wikiarmslistings
I think it'll settle in that price range eventualy.
My local shops say they are extremely popular by sales and volume of calls looking for them
They just feel right for me it's becoming one of my favorite striker fired pistols.
