Dear WLS

bill_bull - My dudes, what is the deal with 13.9" and 13.7" pin and welds? Since you have to get to 16" at the end of it all, and 14.5" gives you plenty for a suppressor mount or brake, it just seems like 13.9" and especially 13.7" pin and welds just give you long-dong-muzzle device with the same OAL and a bit less muzzle velocity. What am I missing here? Love the show. No notes. Bill_Bull

The First McNitter - What’s up fellas! Hey, I have recently acquired a Black Rain Ordnance silver TRUMP FX Custom AR-15. Was wondering what yall would do with it. Range princess? Wall piece? Or keep it brand new for future trade/sale. Thanks! Ps. Jeremy is cool everybody else is a kunt Pps. No notes

Spectacular Rec - So fellas. Is the staccato really that much better than a cz tso? Feeding? Reliability? Trigger and accuracy? P.s. Jeremy may be a cunt but Aaron is definitely a blue waffle.

Nathan L - The cast is going on a coastal bear brown hunt, everyone has one job. Whos doing which job? The jobs - Guide , Hunter , pack mule , cook and bait .

 

Jeff C - Your recent discussion on “Olives” discussed 350 Legend chamber pressures. I have a Rugged Obsidian 9 that I use on a 16” 350 Legend as well as 10.5” 300blk for pig hunting. Rugged says that while it is rated for Legend, it is not rated for 300blk supersonic. Isn’t the chamber pressure max is the same as the legend? I have asked Rugged directly and got a canned response that it’s just not rated for 300 super. Is there any reason I shouldn’t just “send it” and use their warranty if it comes to it?

Bobs your uncle - Why don't pistols use 1913 pic rail on top for mounting red dots? Most slides are wide enough to accommodate the pic rail. it would solve the problem of using different mounting plates and make everything uniform. I know Lone Wolf offers the 1913 cut as an option for Glock slides, https://attackcopter.com/2020/03/13/lone-wolf-distributors-now-offering-slide-melt-picatinny-mount-cut-for-glock-slides/  Thanks, no notes

 

Shellbacked USMC - Can the Midwest Industries MP5 suppressor handguard attach with the suppressor mounted or does it need to be removed? Asking because my SW5 is pinned with a barrel extension.
