      Gonna buy a can...

      There's many to go with. If you buy from Silencershop I hear that they have a easy one to work with and you can basically create a new trust with every can you buy. To be technical you really don't need a trust made specifically for NFA stuff. I went trust route back in the day when CLEO signoff...

      New Shotgun Coming

      A friend of mine has one as well and I was impressed with it for the price compared to my Benelli M4. The parts compatibility appears to be the same down to even having the correct cuts on the stock tube for collapsible stock. Fit and finish wasn't as good and it didn't want to cycle light loads...

      Corrections: A slice of life.

      Carry handle mounted red dot optic at the time I was there so no LPVOs. Its honestly an underfunded agency. Think about it, 38 revolvers using 158gr LRN with two speedloaders was the common handgun setup until 2013.

      Corrections: A slice of life.

      I worked for the DOC for 4 years and it was really eye opening just how varying the job is and how much folks don't think that COs do. Just working there I learned how to be a quasi counselor, plumber, car mechanic, locksmith, electrician and gunsmith. Plus always being short on staff and...

      Almost 14 Months Waiting

      There is the option of obtaining a Unique Person Identification Number (UPIN) with the FBI. Its for folks who experience delays and denials in purchasing firearms. https://www.nationalguntrusts.com/blogs/nfa-gun-trust-atf-information-database-blog/upin-walk-through-guide

      Almost 14 Months Waiting

      Sometimes common names can mess with the FBI portion of the background check. Basically they have to have a full proceed and no question on anything ambiguous such as a unresolved past crime. NFA doesn't have a provision like the Brady Act that allows the transaction to proceed in the event that...

      HUBS KEYMO, ASP, Xeno? What new rabbit hole is this?

      Hub/Keymo/Xeno is basically Dead Air's style of mounts. Xeno is nice, it doesn't have to be timed. Its shorter and lighter than Keymo. The reverse thread makes it impossible to get a muzzle device stuck inside of the can and mount. Plus its cheaper than Keymo. I have one on a Dead Air Nomad L...

      Almost 14 Months Waiting

      There's also the option of reaching out to your congressman as well. I will say this is a little process unto itself since they have to review your request which takes time and you have to fill out some paperwork as well. Then they reach out to the ATF. Sometimes they will also reach out to the...

      12” AR-10 Suppressor Recommendation

      I'd start with thinking about mounting options and manufacturer support. Reason I say this is because you want a can that is usable across multiple hosts and have support years from now. Due to the way NFA is, you will very likely own it for the rest of your life. Based on what I'm guessing you...

      SBR Questions

      He's done two of mine and is fast. He also uses a laser that is better suited for engraving firearms. In times of past I've used trophy and award shops and their lasers generally are not optimal for engraving firearms. Another plus is that he can make the engraving pretty discreet with the font...

      SBR Questions

      If you’re doing Individual route, your first and last name, city and state of residence. Trust, put the full trust name followed by city and state. With that I advise to make your trust name short. Mine is first initial, last name trust. You don’t want a long first and last with revocable...

      SBR Questions

      MP5 makes a great SBR. I form 1d a Century AP5 last year. I go individual route on my NFA items. I’m a single guy so I have no real need for the extra features of a trust. Now back in the day before when the CLEO sign off was necessary I did a trust and filed a few using it but to keep it...

      MP5 suppressor recommendations?

      Volume seems to be the way to go. I regularly shoot a old TiRant 9 on my AP5 and it pushes back a good amount of gas, especially at the ejection port. I have a Wolfman pending that I think will be a upgrade. I think the Wolfman is one of the most versatile PCC and light centerfire rifle cans...

      Mom tased and arrested for not wearing a mask at her child's sports game

      It seems that people here would rather take this out on the officer rather than the property owner. Of course you don't get to see the lead up to what transpired in this video. So, we can probably at best guess the lady was advised by school administrators that she was then trespassing and...

      Emergency management performance-- food/ water distribution

      https://www.bereadyalliance.org/ They have a hand in local emergency management. More specifically they staff the Volunteer Donations and Coordination desk (ESF15) at the EEOC during disasters. During my college years and a few years there after I learned a lot about disaster relief and...

      Emergency management performance-- food/ water distribution

      I like the way that Eric Gilmore is doing it. While there is a playbook for disaster coordination (NIMs, ICS 100-400) published by FEMA and adopted by many agencies its still a tough job. Imagine, having perhaps a few days to speculate where a storm will hit, when it will hit and the intensity...

      Sen. Rick Scott supports red flag laws and common sense gun control

      This is the same man who while governor signed off on multiple budgets and laws that defunded or reduced state funding for public mental health services. Sometimes I wonder if we were better off with Bill Nelson. At least Bill was open and consistent.

      Credit card info stolen again.

      Yep, by the time you roll in serious investigative efforts it better be worth the cost in man hours and technology. It also better be a slam dunk case or law enforcement won’t want to deal with it. Sometimes it’s easier to make it a collections issue rather than a law enforcement issue. The...

      Credit card info stolen again.

      I work in the fraud department for a certain banking/financial institution. We would if we could but the majority of the time the funds and assets stolen are pretty hard to find to the point that it’s more costly for us and merchant to recover rather than to eat the loss. Of course we could make...

      S&W Model 10 Tags Question

      Definitely keep the tag on it. It adds value big time. There are people out there who will go out of the way to find the old guns they were issued with their prior agency. Just as a example, I myself would pay premium for a S&W 5906 or S&W mod 10 or 15 that have FDOC markings. I personally, know...
