I currently carry an iron-sighted gun, but carried a 19 with an RMR in 2016-17. Alas, I sold it to make some quick cash when I spent a couple weeks between jobs.

As I understand it, the money goes into the general treasury. It doesn't go to ATF, and isn't used to fund the program.
The SMEs are really that good?
Yeah. It wasn’t my intention to use the holster to engage the safety, more just having an extra layer of safety to help ensure that it isn’t accidentally swept off while in the holster. Though based...
They seem to have greatly pared down their product offering in the last couple of years, and I don't see a model listed with a threaded barrel.
The threaded barrel is more of a thing to play with...
Well after a couple of years of waffling... it looks like I'm getting back in the 1911 game after a hiatus of a few years. I've got a Dan Wesson Valor in Duty Coat on the way. Once I'm confident that...
That name is way too logical for a wildcat. You’ve gotta go with something more esoteric - it’s gotta have a hyphen, maybe an acronym, or obscure namesake.
Something like “.358-6.5 Harrison SPC”.
The part number for the rear sight is 20-2029s-195-2 for tritium or 20-2029s-195-1 for a non-tritium white stripe.
I didn’t think to ask about fronts… though in hindsight, maybe I should’ve. If...
A bit of an update if anyone is curious…
My barrel showed up last week… missing the rear sight blade. I contacted XS, and they supplied the part number to order a replacement. But rather than...
Though it doesn’t sound exactly like what you’re after, 9x39 might be worth a look. Wolf sells factory subsonic ammo, and I think there are some 140gr class bullets out there for reloaders.
My buddy just got approved at 212, which doesn’t inspire confidence.
Sorry for the necro - I stumbled across this thread and thought an update was in order.
I still haven’t bought a new light… but Silencerco was running a BOGO sale last year so I purchased an...
In case anyone is looking… Aim Surplus has LE trade in 14” barrels with low-pro rifle sights.

I'd argue that the school closures, remote learning, etc., etc. may have initially been done to protect children, but were prolonged unnecessarily in order to "protect" adults.
The scuttlebutt around NFA groups on Reddit and FB is that there is a different set of examiners for paper Form 4s vs eForms.
Granted, the reported approval dates in the NFA groups aren't...
Eform 4 - Silencerco Omega 300
submitted/cashed - 01/14/22
Trust (1 responsible person)
Approved - 03/30/2022
74 days
Now I'm just waiting on SiCo to send me my BOGO Octane 45 so I can do it...
This dude’s rant on the new FN “Hipower” is epic:
Another Triple Lock:

Thanks all - that certainly gives me something to chew on.
I guess I'll be reaching out to some smiths after the holidays to see what my options are. If it's going to be a huge hassle (it sounds...
Another necro:
I've got a circa-2002 Express with both an 18" pedestal bead barrel, and a 28" vent rib. I'm kicking around the idea of adding some sights to the 18" tube. I want to retain the...
Awesome! Thanks! I was able to fiddle it apart. Apparently the gun is his 96 year old dad’s nightstand gun. For a variety of reasons I won’t go into here, his kids wanted it rendered inoperable. I...
So, this is a weird one. A relative who isn’t really a gun guy has asked for help in removing the firing pin from his Beretta Nano. I’ve never put hands on one of these, but I’ve got some basic...
Nice.
While I wish the NFA weren't a thing at all... it would be rad if E-file Form 4s end up having the short turnaround time of E-file Form 1s.
If it matters to you, the Warlock is only rated for 22lr (not magnum, or other rimfires). I believe the baffles are aluminum. But hey, free is free.
