    Sharp Shoot-R NO-LEAD Brushless Lead Remover

    It's been through at least two formulations, likely a third. Originally it would produce a pinkish bubbling surface when applied. That formulation is long gone along with the wipe-out electrolysis unit that worked great. In the case of electrolysis, I'm surprised they ever made that unit(I...

    Other The IZH46M Achilles Heel

    you can't weld pot metal. It will break very quickly if you do. That is a simple part, it would not take a very skilled person to make that part out of scrap tool steel, I'm sure there are several people on this board that could take the pieces as a template and make a new one at a reasonable...

    How much clearance?

    I was talking PB land, I don't know how much translates to air rifle land, but shouldn't be too much different. I actually had a machinist freind cut me an adapter for my big 30 cal suppressor mount so I could put it on the uragan barrel. I put it on my uragan compact with the shroud removed...

    How much clearance?

    Awfully tight, I wouldn't do it. Commercial PB will not go below about 0.05 over bore size, and many/most not even that. Custom built for a single rifle never to be used on another where the machinist does both the rifle barrel and suppressor to assure close to perfection, they sometimes go...

    Yeah, if you would potentially be shooting high volume, with those prices I can see not wanting to do it. In the 6 or so years I've owned mine, not counting sighting it in, and a few rounds checking sight in now and then, swapping to thermal and back, I've probably shot less than 15 rounds at...

    Muzzle Turbulence PB Applied to PCP?

    For a light small subsonic projectile, depending on design of exit it can be noticeable. My .22 PB shooting using the mounts I had for my legal suppressor, noticeably harmed accuracy and it wasn't an alignment issue, my alignment was damn near perfect. My mounts are all compensators, that are...

    I use an Uragan compact .22 tuned to around 22 ft/lbs with 15 grain pellets. If I could go back in time, I would have bought a non-regulated air arms .22 and tuned it to where I wanted it. I want to pick up the pcp, make one shot, and put it down. Leaving my pcp outside with temperature...

    All my pesting is just protecting around my home and I don't use my pcp's past 50 yards ever and rarely past 35 yards, I go PB past that point, other people here will tell you all about pcp pesting at distances you are talking about. But, You already have a 17hmr, I hope you are in a safe area...

    Preferred optic type for stocked pistol

    You always have a choice in PB's, just SBR it and anything goes, it can have a 2.5" barrel and pistol stock one hour, 28" precision barrel and stock the next hour, both completely legal.

    Finally used my boroscope

    @JimD a bronze brush alone pales in comparison to wrapping the copper around it, not even close, not in the same galaxy. About like trying to wash your car with your spit vs having unlimited filtered DI water to wash it with.

    Does it exist? Slash, SWFA SS second gen?

    This scope seems to fit everything you asked for, MAP pricing is 2,470. You have to call around to see how much below that you can get, it won't be much. I know Eurooptic has a discount if you call them on the phone and pay with an e-check. I can't remember what it is, it's been about 8 years...

    Finally used my boroscope

    PB shooters have been using pure copper strands wrapped around a brush for fast removal of lead for a century or more. It is the fastest way bar none, and it won't harm real steel barrels. You get the copper strands from pot scrubbers that are pure copper, be careful, lots of pot scrubbers are...

    Question of the Day/Week Which Gun Case Size, Safe do you prefer (pictures & Special AGN Coupon) UPDATED w/AGN Coupon

    That is one of my pet peeves I never let go. You are selling RSC's (residential security containers) as safes, they are not safes by industry definition. there is no grey area. Safes have UL ratings, UL has an RSC rating and it is a joke, basically nobody get's there RSC's certified by UL for...

    StrelokPro no more?

    if the software is actually on your iphone and not working, and you bought it on the apple store, first turn off updates for it. Go to strelock's site, they have instructions for restoring it on your phone, you must have updates turned off. If it were me, I wouldn't do it since you have to use...

    .22 LR vs .22 slug

    I still mostly like my .22 lr rifles, but... Since a couple or so years ago when I ran out of what I assumed was a lifetime supply of ammo I bought decades ago, I'm pretty pissed. Back in the 80's, I bought cases of a single lot of CCI standard velocity that shot better than the highest dollar...
