Does that even work? I know you can suppress a Nagant revolver due to it's weird chamber-cylinder sealing mechanism but I wasn't aware of any other revolvers that do.

ReverendCode posted:Hello new Friend. How does that light work being mounted so low, unless you're planning to put a VFG on there? I've got the same mount, although reversed. Not that I needed a weaponlight but I had an extra LED and the Magpul mount is cheap: BCM 14.5" upper (welded on FH), Aimpoint Micro, and an RRA lower with a Geissele G2S trigger.

You're probably not going to find much agreement in calling to outright ban semi-automatic rifles in 99% of the gun owning community.

It reminds me of the last time I shot an M4 with NVG and a PEQ-15; my laser for some reason was incredibly dim so I could really barely only see it on the 50m target. This being a familiarization fire towards the end of the night we all had probably 10 magazines to expend so I wound up just shooting the 50m over and over, including using burst mode (until the tower got angry, heh). If I remember I had like 65 hits on the 50m and 0 on everything else when I got my score card. I'm fairly sure the counter must roll over to 0 at 100 or something.

An Airweight J-Frame with a moonclip-less 9mm cylinder like the 547 would own.

Why are you complaining about weight of the rail when you've got a non-micro RDS (Aimpoint M2/M3?) on it? And I don't really care what the latest fad in guns/rails is, I just went with what was familiar; an M4 clone (with an Aimpoint Micro) on it.

I wonder what the legality of a silent sealed cartridge would be under the NFA. It's a neat idea from a technical standpoint for sure though.

M_Gargantua posted:That's a dumb idea and physically I have no idea why it would make the rounds any quieter. You need the gas to expand down the barrel and be dampened by baffles at the end, constructing the bullet in an extra 8mm of brass won't do anything for sound. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSS_silent_pistol#Cartridge The powder is behind a piston which propels the bullet; gas doesn't leave the cartridge.

Are you really saying there are zero plausible uses for a compact and nearly silent semi-automatic pistol? Especially by lovely people in the Russian/Soviet governments?

Maybe this is something that some of you have experience with, is there a trick to getting an M4 RAS to completely seat on the delta ring/barrel nut? My BCM M4A1 (the heavier profile barrel) has a P&S RAS (same as the KAC, just different manufacturer) that seems to be rock solid, but I can still notice that the delta ring is canted a bit with the top rail half installed which to me says the rail isn't fully seated or something is slightly out of spec.
