An old crusty guy at the old Ford dealer had the same thoughts when they started putting cigarette lighters in vehicles.

Dale and Kathy are very good people. They are very easy to work with. I have been to their shop. They are a small, clean and organized shop. Dale has built me a .45 can for use on my UMP. He has also cut down a number of barrels, engraved some guns and other general gunsmithing work. Everything was top notch.
Their suppressors are built like brick shithouses. They are on the heavy side but work quite well. Compared to my AAC can their can works equally if not better.
I don't think you will be disappointed.

I've dealt with them. What would you like to know?

You don't want a piston on a fixed barrel. You'll want the direct thread mount.

Yeah, for the most part I plan to carry my weapon in a bag most likely if I do get a CCW. At least for right now I still don't want to be known by all my associates as "the person with the gun on themselves at all times." I could've said "Wheelguns for Home Defense" but CCW also limits the amount of boxed ammo you could have on you.
I do now see the issue that by saying "CCW" I've brought concealment into the equation as well.
If your freinds, or anyone other than maybe your significant other, know you're carrying you're doing it wrong. Seriously.

Very good news indeed. I for one have always wondered why I must have a muffler for my Harley but can not seem easily to get just a mundane muffler for my short barrel rifle? Which both need. This is good news. But then again I can not hear a word you are saying because it is too late. "What"? "WHAT"! HB of CJ (old coot)

Stryker, I'm happy Bullock amended the bill to allow for this. I don't think anyone saw it coming. But, imho, the only reason he did this was because he shot every other pro 2A bill down. It was a political move to save some face.
For me personally, this is a bigger/better deal than any of the other bills presented this session. So, other than the fact this is going to cost me another $1.5k, I'm super surprised and super stoked.

I don't carry a revolver for ccw. For me, there are much better options.
I do carry a GP100 in the woods, however.
I would also consider a G20 (10mm) to replace the .357. But, funds always seem to go elsewhere.

I wouldn't be too worried about her boyfriend. I'd be extremely concerned with her political affiliation. I would spend quite a bit of time trying to figure out where my parenting went wrong.

For the win...What may make this somewhat more touchy is that Josephine County (Southern Oregon) is a former Oregon And California rail road county. Long political story. The quick summery is that the FEDS have broken their own law in regards with allowing the State of Oregon (and Jo Co) to harvest timber and properly use the tax money.
Basically what the FEDS did was "allow" federal funding to flow into the area in exchange for not cutting trees. Again a long political and environmental story. Then the FEDS stopped the funding ... but still did not allow us the resume cutting trees. They breached the contract. Anyhow, tensions are high out here for many reasons. HB

That's pretty cool!

I don't know the back story on any of this. Just posting this info to tack onto Old Coots post on the mining laws and the maintenance fees.
"General Mining Law of 1872
The federal law governing locatable minerals is the General Mining Law of 1872 (May 10, 1872), which declared all valuable mineral deposits in land belonging to the United States to be free and open to exploration and purchase.
This law provides citizens of the United States the opportunity to explore for, discover, and purchase certain valuable mineral deposits on public domain minerals.
Federal Land Policy & Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA)
This Act did not amend the 1872 law, but did affect the recordation and maintenance of claims. Persons holding existing claims were required to record their claims with BLM by October 1979, and all new claims were required to be recorded with BLM. FLPMA’s purpose was to provide BLM with information on the locations and number of unpatented mining claims, mill sites, and tunnel sites to determine the names and addresses of current owners, and to remove any cloud of title on abandoned claims.
What is a Mining Claim?
A mining claim is a parcel of land for which the claimant has asserted a right of possession and the right to develop and extract a discovered, valuable, mineral deposit. This right does not include exclusive surface rights (see Public Law 84-167).
Locatable minerals include both metallic minerals (gold, silver, lead, etc.) and nonmetallic minerals (fluorspar, asbestos, mica, etc.). It is nearly impossible to list all locatable minerals because of the complex legal requirements for discovery."

"Maintenance Fees
An annual $140 maintenance fee per claim is required to be filed or postmarked (if mailed) on or before September 1 of the year preceding an assessment year. (For example, for the 2005 assessment year which begins September 1, 2004, the maintenance fees must be paid by September 1, 2004.)
Maintenance Fee Payment Waiver Certification (aka Small Miners Exemption)
If a claimant owns 10 or fewer active claims/sites on Federal land in the United States, he may qualify for a maintenance fee payment waiver. Waivers must be filed or postmarked (if mailed) on or before September 1 for the subsequent assessment year. There is no fee to file a waiver. A waiver must be filed prior to each year a waiver of the fees is desired.
If a claimant owns claims in more than one state, he/she must file a waiver form in each appropriate BLM State Office.
By filing a waiver form, the claimant is stating that assessment work has been or will be done, and that the proper affidavits of labor will be timely filed.
Annual Assessment Work
Claimants who perform assessment work must spend a minimum of $100 in labor or improvements on each claim, and record evidence of such with the BLM by December 30th of the calendar year in which the assessment year ended. FLPMA required the same document be filed with BLM which has been or will be recorded with the appropriate county office. The charge for recording an affidavit of annual assessment with BLM is $10 per claim. The annual assessment document must be filed or postmarked by December 30th.
The assessment work must be performed within the period defined as the assessment year.
Assessment work is not a requirement for owners of mill or tunnel sites; however, they must file a notice of intent to hold (NOIH) the site. BLM requires a $10 service charge per site for filing a NOIH.
Assessment work includes, but is not limited to, drilling, excavations, driving shafts and tunnels, sampling (geochemical or bulk), road construction on or for the benefit of the mining claim; and geological, geochemical, and geophysical surveys.

In the video Tim says the barrel all the barrels are the same length. The rifles have a barrel extension to bring them from 11.25" to 16".

There are 12 cows and two spikes outside my window as I write this. I'm surprised the little Bulls still have their antlers by now.
Good luck with the hunt.

Juggs,was never a complaint... My statement was in response to sunnybean's post..
I hope you realize that my post was more of a observation than a criticism. I know this is hard for some of the folks here to swallow, but I have been a registered republican since age 18. I have voted that way since then. My comment was coming more from getting tired of taking about and debating the issues with folks that have written me off as a jackbooted thug simply because I work for the "man" than from anything else.
It's just not the same place I joined some eight or so years ago. Of course, I'm not the same person as I was then either. Didn't mean to kill the mood. I was just stating my opinion. Which, as usual, has lead to me explaining myself further. So, I'll just go back to shutting the fuck up. ;-)

I stop in here quite a bit but rarely post anything anymore. I have to agree with the lack of new imports and the V12's taking over and changing things.
Very few of the industry players post on here anymore. Seems to me that the brainstorming, detailed build threads, technical discussions, innovation of new parts, etc. has taken the backseat to a more political/current events extreme right wing conspiracy forum.

Potentially interested but need to know prices first. Any detailed photos of the front (chopped) sections of the carriers?

Elite Iron. $Spendy$ but nice. Stainless steel. Probably full auto rated. Mine are. Comes apart for cleaning. Replaceable/available baffles and end caps. High quality. The only downer is that they might not warrant very short barrel stuff with the wrong twist rates.
Baffle strike potential. Also sometimes they want to do the threading to make sure it is exactly correct. Very tight cans. I am a happy camper. HB of CJ (old coot) You tend to get what you pay for. Enjoy. All US Code Laws And NFA Rules Apply. Pop, thud, pop, thud.

I'll be in the same boat soon.
Dale at Elite Iron makes some very nice suppressors. I see he's making some titanium ones now as well. My only complaint would be the weight of his steel units. The one one he built for my UMP works very well.
Having been to his place, toured his shop, met his wife, etc., I'd say you can't go wrong.
