Titanium 22 from otter creek is a favorite for me
re: Recommendation for a pistol for my wife to carry in her purse.

I can almost promise she won’t like a snub nose more going smaller in a gun rarely makes it more pleasant tj shoot. The micro compact 9mm are right at the cusp of starting to get snappy.
She may like a larger size 9 or a similarly sized 380
What specially does she not like about the shield I guess I should ask

I honestly believe all these people recommending small revolvers will have a tough time shoot one at a range at 7 yards but hey maybe I’m wrong. I just know I shot pistols a good bit more than most when I was competing and I was not naturally easily able to shoot a revolver well. There’s not much to hang onto they recoil a lot making follow up shots tough especially if you don’t have a good purchase on the gun.
I cannot stress how much these guns are not a beginners guns. They have fairly heavy very long trigger pulls. That can easily be short stroked.
Just think hard before handing her the revolver. If you ever actually go teach her how to shoot it it may be a bad experience.
I would wager a lot of these guys saying they gave it to their wife have never actually had their wife shoot the gun or if they did I’d be willing to be she didn’t shoot it 50 times.
Having a gun doesn’t mean you’re immediately safer. It can get you into larger problems if you don’t have a good grasp on when and how to use it.
All this said I absolutely love my jframe but my wife despises it (this is the norm). My wife enjoys shooting her glock 19 however.

Depends on the size of the purse I guess. Jframe is one of my concealed carry guns but not exacly a beginner gun. Much less a 65 year old woman’s beginner gun.
Maybe one of the larger framed semiauto 380s?
The LCP max is very cool but I haven’t personally shot one to know how easily it shoots being as small as it is.
Glock 42 is one of the larger framed 380s but may be too large for purse carry. The same can probably be said for the 380 version of the 365

Loooked harder at that rockslide thread. Kinda sucks I thought finally silencerco nailed one.
At the very least silencerco warranty is typically good. Bummer they aren’t really addressing the problem tho

Surprised noones mentioning the silencerxo scythe ti. It’s a pretty top of the line bolt gun hunting can. I’m not normally the biggest silencerco fan just because I think there’s some better tech out there but for a a hunting bolt action that doesn’t require a real high tech suppression solution the scythe Ti hits the nail on the head.
As far as suppressors yeah depends what your budget is.
$1000-1200 as said the Cat KK or WB are about as good as it gets. I like inconnel for semiauto ars but for most people y’all aren’t running a rate of fire that even remotely hurts titnatium so go titanium.
$600ish otter creek polonium.

Single shot trust from silencershop is the way to go. It makes the process of applying easier and then anyone you want to add to the trust after the stamp is approved may be do so.
The trusts are like $25 and it’s easier to just have a trust for every nfa item so that when you go to add more you don’t have to have every person on the trust you are adding an nfa item on apply and do fingerprints and passport photos etc.

Most industry guys say the form 4 process will take about 6 months to clear backlog.
Right now my van that I bought last week got approved in 2 days. I am impatient so I paid the $200.
I will say there is going to be a big run on the stock of serial numbers that are currently made come Jan 1 too so not only will the atf wait time go long but you may be waiting for the suppressor you want to come in stock for a while.
If your not impatient buying the can now and waiting to file until after the first is a good option but silencershops cutoff is dec15. After that everything will be filed after the first

I concur on checking eye dominance. I am right handed left eye dominate so I shoot pistols with gun in right hand but rifles and shotguns off left shoulder.
It is definitely a hill worth dieing on nowadays. Maybe 20 years ago sure. But it’s honestly not all that hard or even limiting to be able to get left handed guns. All of my ar15 ar10 bolt actions and shotguns are left eject models and none of them I would say I had to make sacrifices in quality to make that choice.
Sure maybe I have to spend 100-200 more per gun for the left handed version but it is absolutely worth it.

To answer your question. It’s typically around 300/hr ish.
You’ll need to book a 10-12 hour trip to have any real good exciting trip if you’re talking about trolling.
100 proof charters is great another good option would be twilight.

I mean if you have the money the 72’ Viking convertible will run you 40+ knots if you’re willing to push 85-90% engine load everywhere you go.
Not many center consoles are keeping up with you even the 40+ foot Freemans when it gets to be 3-4 footers and they sure as hell aren’t as dry and comfortable as you.
Those tournaments are hard on your body even in an 80’ boat fishing 3 straight days. Much less on a cc without Albert as much room to get out the sun or lay down for a nap or take a refreshing hot shower.
Look I get it the big center consoles can do everything those sportfishers do but if you actually have the money and I’m talking about actually have the money 50-100 mil plus. You’re getting a sportie eventually.

You do not need any cfm rating to air up tires. Yes it’ll slow down a little if you have a ton of restriction but any 150-175 rated compressor will work.
FWIW I use my fortress to run a ton of air powered tools and it’s been a great compressor.

Yeah not pictured but that’s what i mostly used and had the level as a backup. If you follow on Instagram I post updates to my stories way more often and I go into a decent amount of detail.

Got her flipped over and strongback modified to make it more of a workable height.
Getting it straight was a pretty long process but I don’t think I’ll be glassing in any wonky curves to it so I’m happy.
It’s crazy how big the boat feels flipped over.

Yessir it says right on ottercreeks website that the polonium has a 6mm bore and will work with any 243 cartridge.
Here’s a video that shows how well the k can suppresses a 243 bolt gun.

From experience I can tell you a full power 308 even suppressed is going to be too much for training a 6yo to shoot they will not enjoy shooting it enough to actual learn to shoot.
That is not say that a 6yo couldn’t learn to shot on something else and shoot a suppressed 308 a few times to get comfortable and shoot deer with it but they won’t be able to shoot it enough to train and enjoy shooting.
As far as 300blk plenty of people have shot deer with them and reds on reds on reds has some first hand experience with some of the fancy bullets designed for subsonic expansion. But you’ll never get a bang flop and you’ll have to do tracking no matter what if using subsonic.
Supersonic 300blk is more capable of putting down deer than 77gr 5.56 so if I was limited to those two to pick what I’m shooting at deer with I’d go 300blk and shoot supers at it.
Subsonic 308 is pointless as you’re better off with 300blk because of the twist rates as mentioned.
Best solution more guns. Get him a 10/22 out a little cheapo scope on it and let him go to town shooting as many bricks of .06 cent per round 22lr. To me getting a kid comfortable with scopes and aiming and just shooting pays off more than darn near anything.
You mentioned the polonium K. Any thoughts about looking at other rifles but chambered in 243? The polonium K sounds great on a bolt action 243. And I take my 20” barrel 308 with 6” long can into every climber I’ve ever crawled into.
I know it’s another caliber but it would check all of your boxes better than a 556 or 300blk except for subsonic suppression but in my real world experience a heard of pigs are moving out pretty swiftly when one of their buddies are dropped with subsonic 300blk. Granted that’s out of a semiauto so not quite as quiet as bolt gun but still.

I mainly like it for bolt gun application because of the added break at the end. And that’s only an intuition I have zero clue if there’s enough pressure there to really make a difference but it does seem like a good bolt gun can. Especially since bolt guns you don’t have to get too fancy
Nice didn’t know that

These are the suppressors I like for lower budget and no budget.
Also the advancement in suppressor tech these days is so fast something only stays the best for long.
If you can’t tell I’m a huge fan of CAT
22lr
Rugged oculus
Otter creek labs titanium 22
Dead air mask
Cat SR (don’t make anymore)
9mm
Cat street crack
Rugged obsidian
Tirant
Omega 9k
556 only (all semi auto)
Cat WB pricey short can be titanium or stainless
Polonium best budget
Polonium k best budget short
308: * denotes good on 556
Cat Jl optimized for bolt gun.
Silencerco Scythe Ti
Polonium 30* good budget
Cat ODB* highest performing
Cat DD highest performing short
