I think we've proven I'm crazy. And I said it was something good to aim for, not that he would ever get there.

Have you re-loaded the 5.7x28mm before? It's incredibly sensitive. If you are comfortable giving it a go, I would say start with True Blue, it's about the best powder you can get without going custom. 1700fps should be a reasonable goal for the 55gr, be careful with the 62 grains, if they are pretty...

It comes down to a fundamental lack of knowledge. You're far more likely to kill with your car driving to and from work everyday than you are a properly maintained gun collection. The issue is not the people who know what they're doing, it's the people who don't.

The slide will travel back to far and start bending things. I've actually seen it. Bent frames, ruined recoil spring guides, broken barrel links or barrel link pins. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm sure a barrel pushing slamming into the notch on the barrel would do some really gnarly things to your ...

1) Wolff springs will go 3-7K depending on round and load, a 9mm is going to last a lot longer, even with hot loads than a .45 or 10mm with hot loads. 2) I like em, they do increase the accuracy and reliability of a gun that isn't built as tight as a true custom. 3) Gimmick, some guys like them beca...

Step one sounds like it needs to be go with lower power rounds, will decrease recoil and follow up times. Secondly, a compensator is about the best you can do, at least a good one is, I have an internally compensated G35 that fires like a dream. You should talk to our newest forum sponsor Radical Pr...

Midway's got them, so I'm sure just about any reloading supply place will have them. They're extremely popular. They're my standard carry in everything .355" and up. I generally go for the higher velocity lower weight, though not neccissarily the lowest weight, gives a higher muzzle energy, though t...

Double tap is in fact a brand:
Double Tap .40S&W loads

I like the 165gr Gold Dot's for .40 personally. The 125gr Gold dots in .357Sig. They offer a lot of good options though, just depends on what you're looking for.

If you check out Barnes' website, you'll see a video of the varmint grenade coming apart on a seedless grape. Not a likely choice for penetrating steel. +1 good self defense round against plain clothes attackers because of this explosive effect, not good for penetration. most likely would not make ...

I recommend any .40S&W load that's been necked down to fire 9mm/.355 bullets.

All joking aside, they're pretty pricey, but I've had good luck with double tap ammo.

Happy B-Day Joe, you old enough to actually buy a gun yet?

Good choice Lisa, LOVE my PT92, takin it to the range friday actually.

Very nice, very nice indeed, I know you wouldn't sell it without test-firing at least a couple. What were you testing them in?

They are definitely nice and shiny! Are they close to surplus velocities or do they have that EA touch?

This is exactly why I hate my M82A1. $4 per round. I love it, and it's going nowhere any time soon, but god I hate paying so much for ammo.

I am not saying it's not worth it, quite the opposite, I'm 100% sure that these rounds would be AMAZING, just stating the nature of the round itself.

Oh, no, I had every intention of getting the 10 year, it's pretty cheap for a 10year.

blackbottle.com, how did that not come up the first time???

Thanks steve, I could have sworn that's what it was called but, I googled black bottle and it didn't come up, I'll have to try harder.

I remember reading in a post about some scotch that I was going to pick up for a buddy of mine for christmas, but I can't find the post anymore and I've completely forgotten the name. I'd swear it had black in the name and I remember it's available in a 10 year. It's a blend of several different mal...

For a revolver, I think the Ruger SP101 would be a great platform for the 5.7x28. I question if a compact or sub-compact auto pistol is even a possibility given the slide travel necessary to reliably chamber and eject the 5.7 case. I hope some firearms mfg proves me wrong...and soon. :D We discusse...

We've toyed with the idea of making our own around here a few times. The options are pretty small though, re-chamber another 5 or 6 round revolver based on some other .223bullet round that can stand the pressures 5.7 run, or cut down an existing FsN, and I don't know that anyone is going to be willi...

Have any pictures MDD? That is essentially what I would want to do if I bought one.

Those are pretty good, I've temporarily replace my background of the image taken during french nuclear testing with a cropped version of the full size picture of #1. I've been playing with color balance and even a black and white version, but they just don't look right as of yet.

I happen to like this trend. I may shoe my boss monday morning.

Nice to know SGC has one though, I might head up there later this week so I can finally see one in person.

Oh, yeah welcome! We're getting a lot of new members lately!

Nice, gotta love the 1911's. Kimber wouldn't be my first choice, but they are damn good guns and you got a heck of a deal on that one. I'm not really a fan of the stainless/blued combo though.

A very warm welcome! It seems a frightening thought to think after 20/50 rounds the threat continues. I'd call Wolly for a gunship. :laugh: Or do what I do and go get the AK.......if THAT don't work then I say f**k it call the army!

The only other rifles that you might call an off the shelf rifle would be a tompson/center encore and contender, they have an off the shelf barrel available for either in 5.7x28mm. I believe during the early design of the AR57 they were considering the FsN magazines instead of the PS90 mags, and may...

I got my hands on one in Germany about six months ago. Firing was fine, thought the grip was more vertical than on a standard ar-15/m16, I was more referring to the actual action of the gun. I do imagine a vertical fore-grip would help a lot, I still can't imagine it being very fast to fire.

I've actually used one of those before, the main grip is the lever, it is VERY awkward to fire IMHO.

I also actually like my .380's, but if push came to shove I'd rather have my FsN.

I'd really like it back actually, any time now would be nice.

Make sure you order it directly form them and inform them that it will be going on an M16 lower. They have to make a minor modification to make it work in full auto. I don't remember what, it was gone over in the thread on the old forum. As I recall there is not additional cost.

Good to know there is a neck length difference, I thought it was just a longer OAL that necessitated the extra lead-in on 5.56 barrels, learn something new every day I suppose.

Are you aware that the only difference between 5.56 and .223 is internal dimensions of the brass? Externally they are nearly identical and there is really no significant difference between the rounds themselves. There is a difference in the barrels, but not so much so in the rounds themselves.

I'm just a little behind the curve here, but what's new?

+1 on the pictures. And to expand on steve's answer to grant's question of velocity, There is a chance it will actually increase velocity, though only marginally.

WTF? :lmao:

Good Luck, let us know how it functions and the cost when all is said and done.

Yes and no, you would get plenty of thump but, you've got nearly a half inch hole for sound to escape, it is technically going to be a lower pitch noise but, speaking strictly on a decibels basis it is going to be notably louder despite suppression. The suppressor is also going to have to be larger ...

Barrel should be fine here, suppressor talk is relegated to NFA. Suppressed .40S&W is getting towards the un-necessary side, the bigger the hole in the middle of the suppressor the more area there is for sound to escape. Sure you can get more thump out of it, I just don't see the appeal of going bey...

No accessory rail on the second gen.

Before I address availability, why does he want a threaded barrel for a .40s&w handgun?

Has any one tried the Tornado threaded barrel yet? I just purchased my 5.7 this past weekend and want to go silent. And since I am asking about the barrels has anyone shot more then one suppressor on their 5.7 if so which does the best job? (also this may seem like a NOOB question) but why can't / ...

We need to know what you fired, factory round, elite round or krull round? Failure to cycle isn't uncommon with certain sub-sonics.

Can I ask why you fired it and didn't take it apart to inspect or clean it for a week?

jmz5 wrote:Yeah, it will be a SBR with the stock..

That sucks a little.

Ah, I missed the folding stock part, somehow. I'd say it's still iffy, a short barreled shotgun with a pistol grip, vertical forward grip and top folding stock is still an AOW, I've got a pair of them.

I don't know that you can register a pistol as a SBR because it stands for Short Barreled Rifle and I'm almost sure you can't register a pistol as a rifle. I think you're going to need to look in to getting an AOW(All Other Weapons) stamp in order to use a veticle front grip on a pistol. Luckily tha...

Nice, I had seen some of those, but not all. Wish I could find a bar like that, I could afford enough liquor to actually be a full blown alcoholic, as it is I'm just a half-a$$ed drunk, and no one likes a half-a$$sed anything.

would make sense, the .357Sig is just a necked down .40S&W case that accepts .355 bullets so it should function just fine, just like 10mm is essentially a lengthened .40S&W.

Possibly with a barrel swap, Gimme just a sec, I'll check my "Big Book Of Glockliness"

Yup, they make .40S&W barrels for the 20, sounds like you have to use a .40 magazine though. I don't see a .357 barrel though, that would be pretty bitchin, if I could drop my existing .357 barrel in it for S&G.

That's not a bad price, I had been considering picking up a G20 after the new year. :ponder:

Congrats and welcome!

That's a bit on the pricey side, I think I'd save the coin and get a blued w/o flutes, should shave about $200. Nice of them to include the scope mount.

It's not a bad price but, that is way too slow a twist, I don't know if S4's would stabilize in that, the SS195 is slow enough and light enough it should, the S4 is notably faster, the new 30Gr VG's might work, but only if you cap them at about 2000fps, they might not stabilize well faster.

It is possible to nickel plate platic, it's not easy or nearly as strong as nickel plating a metal but, it is possible.

I'm pretty sure it will not fit an AR-10 lower, though it will fit an M16 lower with just a little modification. Don't know about the others, I think it would depend on the exact caliber of the gun, but you can always just buy the bolt for a 5.56 if it is different, just for use with your 5.7 upper,...
