Nick White 5 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Are there wooden magazines for th .308? I'm not sure if they are ACTUALLY wood, but do they make them? And are flash hinders, surpressors, muzzle breaks, universal? Like, if they have a flash supressor for a .308, will it work on a S308? If it's threaded right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kresk 10,063 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Never heard of wooden mags. Muzzle attachments will obviously depend on the diameter of the barrel. Generally they are not universal in that regard, although certain threads are more common. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike1234567 26 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) No wooden mags I've ever heard of but that doesn't mean they don't exist... don't see how the necessary thicker dimensions of the thing would work in "modern" firearms. In reference to muzzle attachments; For "flash" suppressors if the threads are the same and the caliber is the same they should work fine although effectiveness may vary for given calibers/loads (I don't know)... one very important caveat is for "sound" suppressors that also must be manufactured to withstand muzzle "pressures", i.e., one could use a .223 sound suppressor on a .22LR but "never" use a .22LR on a .223 rifle.

Nick White 5 Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 It might not be wood, but like this: http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a345/FW200/DSC04000.jpg I mean not universal like .30 cal to a .50 cal, I mean if I buy a supressor for a .308 can I put it on my S308.

BpS12 512 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 I believe those are Bakelite mags, a form of "plastic". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick White 5 Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Ohhh. That makes sense. Is it like a cover or something? Or is it like the S308 plastic mags? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike1234567 26 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Bakelite is an old form of plastic. It's brittle. Edited March 11, 2011 by Mike1234567 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick White 5 Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Damn. That would look pretty cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
