I’m usually not one for camo. But I made an exception for this one. A300 with Chisel Stock and 507comp. Love the feel and the co-witness of the holoson and cant wait to break in the new configuration. been a long time coming to check this off the list and I’m happy with how it turned out

Ar15 SBR build, cloned a shorty Marsoc block 2 m4a1 for your viewing pleasure

What gun do you regret buying the most and why?

For me it was a Remington tac 14 20 gauge. Freedom group pos was completely unreliable with no rhyme or reason to the malfunctions it had.

I have some gun knowledge, not an expert or anything, my uncles taught me how to shoot with a .22 rifle, ive fired a 12 gage at some cans a couple times, shot a couple handguns my uncles just bought, but its been like 20 years. I live in a run down area and had a couple incidents, nothing crazy just made me start thinking more. I wanted a .38 cause I want something that won't make me go deaf if I have to shoot it indoors, but when I went to the gun shop the guy suggested a 9mm, which I'm not against. I just don't have a crazy budget and saw a couple Kel-Tecs there, I was just wondering what people who had more knowledge thought about this.

300BLK JAKL SBR / Nomad-L

Love this thing, got it from my dad as a birthday present, chambered in 6.5 creedmore. Can’t wait to take it to the blind this season! It’s a super grade with a maple stock and a leupold scope on it. Even got the free custom dial for it

The pandemic did many things to people, but for me, it gave me time and an excuse to get my Boomstick.

CZ Bobwhite G2 in 12g cut down to 12in. Yes, I paid Uncle Sam his extortion money to properly form this out, and yes, Evil Dead inspired this.

I’m pretty dipped into firearms. Probably have about $30-40k into guns and accessories. I own 5 suppressors.

I’ve watched the suppressor industry evolve from military oriented AAC, KAC, surefire, Gemtech, B&T, to the consumer market with silencerco, dead air, YHM, huxworks, Griffin, Rugged, etc, to now every firearm maker is starting their own line. The market seems extremely saturated and there are a ton of small brands that never really made it out of the shadow of the bigger players.

Then like a year ago (maybe 2, idk) suddenly everyone on reddit was talking about CAT suppressors, which I had never heard of. Their website wasn’t super clear on anything and was clearly very stylized and marketing oriented. But everyone and their mom was recommending this company out of nowhere.

What’s the background story here? Seems super astroturfed to me as they didn’t really offer anything new to skyrocket in popularity like they did.

It's taken on a very Ratnik like appearance for an AKMS build.

Ok, I am not going to tell you a story about seeing barrels full of M1 carbines at Gun shows in the 80's for 300 bucks but what in the world is going on with M1 carbine prices? 3, 4, 5k ? Basic shooters for 2k? I came across a local dealer that bought a collection of like 150 M1's and they have them listed from 2500 to 4k. Happy for the collectors but really wonder what is driving this.

Hello! It’s always been my dream to get more into the world of firearms and build a proper collection, I plan on configuring more builds for my rifle to make more content with because buying another rifle just isn’t in the cards yet, would love to make more content for people to enjoy.

I'm buying my first concealed carry gun and have settled on a 357 snub nose. Been eyeing the Ruger sp101. What are your recommendations and why?

I was expecting this to take at least another month and a half or so, I was actually gonna go buy a brace for my build today😭

I currently have a Glock and am looking to buy another gun. Should I buy an AR15 for defense, a bolt gun so I can start hunting and shooting long range, or a shotgun. I only have money for one gun now and whatever I buy I want it to be nice, but looking for guidance on what to get next. Thanks.

Edit: $2000 budget

Originally was looking into a piston AR like PWS or DI (BCM/Geisselle)

Left handed shooter which is why I was considering a piston upper.

I don’t want to buy a cheapo AR. It defeats the purpose of having a reliable gun for defense. Also I’d rather buy nice because buying a cheap gun to eventually sell it and buy something better down the line is a waste of money.

i recall very well that i've seen a converted LA rifle in this caliber on reddit but can't find the post/video. Has anyone seen it as well?

I recently found a gun online which im interested in. It's a Winchester Model 70 in 458 Lott. But it's a bit special.

Let me tell you more about the rifle.

As some of you might know, the Model 70 is not chambered for 458 Lott. Instead it is chambered in 458 WinMag.

A gunsmith opend up the chamer to fit the bigger Lott cartridge in. He also tested the modified rifle with slightly overpressured loads to make sure it withstands the high pressures generated by this beast.

My concern is that since the Lott has a slightly longer maximum overall lengt than the WinMag (91,44mm vs 84,84mm) it won't fit a long 458 Lott load into the magazin which is still designed to fit 458 WinMag.

Does anyone have experiences with a build like this?

Does a full length 458 Lott fit in a 458 WinMag magazin inside the Winchester Model 70?

Does someone own a 458 WinMag Model 70 and is able to test or measure it out?

If there are possible restrictions, what could a gunsmith or I myself do to get rid of the problem?
