Re: Gun prOn!

It is very subtle on the ejection port side of the slide. Yes, AIM, with the holster, extra magazine, etc. I'm very happy with the finish.

Re: Gun prOn!

What's the velocity drop through the suppressor? Not like I'm going to weld one to my classic .270, but more data is always good. Everything I have read says that the velocity drop is not substantial*. The projectile has already made it through the barrel, where the expanding gasses work their acce...

Help me understand the point of a suppressor on .308? Not being a jerk, I honestly don't know.


Reduced noise at the muzzle for shooter and spectators.

And as Darkmage pointed out, they can change your POI. Nice suppressor DM!

Yesterday I made it to the range to finish up my load workup for the 180g projectiles.

Re: How to remove the 6GB of Windows 10 you didnt ask for

Not that anyone asked, but I like W10 on the two systems I upgraded that worked. The third, is now a wasted effort. This is just how it goes with mainstream-corporate OS's. One person's happy place is another person's invasion of control. Go with something different if you don't want the coolaid MS ...

Went to MB site, newest bios was 2008, and already installed. Tried a "reset." It is no better, but now a lot of apps are missing.

update 9/9/15 issues

I was out of town when my wife's six year old duel core athlon with 2gb upgraded to Windows 10. From what I hear, it worked well for a few days. On the 9th there was a major auto-update (50ish files). Now the only way I can get the machine to boot is to pop out the bios battery. Battery out and back...
