Excuse my ignorance and thread diversion but what does it mean to "convert" a Saiga?

In interest of time I did not read all of the replies in this thread. However I agree with 56ford, that's good advice. The dealerships send those coupons to lure you to their shop so they can sell you lots of extras. Best thing is to throw out the coupons when they come. I have an 08 GMC Seirra with 150,000 miles, and like others have said, have never had brake fluid changed. Because of the heavy amount of driving I do, I do maintenance ever 5,000 mi and have never had the "oil life" meter reach 0.

Bimmer thanks for the idea, I hadn't thought of doing that. Would you worry about leading the 9mm can while shooting .22? *not familiar with what "QD Style" means *NM got it, Quick Detachable. Google saves the day once again

Most definitely left to rot. If anything they would collect and burry them. It does seem like a waste of edible meat, but in the nuisance removal hunts it's just about killing the problem.

Good to know Dolomite, thanks.

Great info Mac, thanks. Sounds like I need to come play at your playground

So if I run a suppressor to it's end and send it back to have new internals, is the returned can considered the same as far as tax stamps are concerned? Obviously I am clueless to these things. I appreciate the learning.

Not for $150, they could be cool in your reloading/man cave, but $50 would be my price limit

What would you consider moderate shooting volume?

Thanks for the help Dolomite, so for non-lead bullets sealed cans are the way to go?

Ok so for the sake of the thread let's say I'm going with .22lr. in a rifle. What would the best platform be 10/22? What about an AR with a .22 conversion? Or just a straight AR in .22lr. What about an AR with a .223 can? Would it perform the same shooting .22 and .223? I understand that .22 leads the can pretty bad so I would definitely want one that seperates. Obviously I wouldn't want to buy 2 supressors at this stage but if I can buy one that works on both calibers, that would be a plus.

Well I've been wanting a supressor for a while now and need some advice on which route I should take. So first off what should I look to put the suppressor on Choices 1) G19 2) Springfield TRP 3) Ruger 10/22 My ultimate goal would be to put one on the TRP, however with the cost of the supressor, new barrel and fitting the price is gonna be high. So that said I was leaning toward a 10/22 or another similar 22. I have one but don't want to modify it, so I would most likely buy another. With this the suppressers are cheaper and so is the ammo. I may end up having some good money invested but it would be cheap to shoot and really quiet. And of course with the Glock I would just need the barrel an can. What would you do if you were me? What do you think of Griffin Armament supressors if I went the 22 route? (cheapest I've seen)

Nice videos, the first one is scary fast for an SUV, I like tue second much better. I did the math one day, if you had about $15k to add on to a new JK you could have an awesome on-road/ off-road jeep. Sooo anyone got about $45k they wanna give me?

The older models ( mine was 97) measured speed using a plastic gear with teeth that measured transmission revolutions, all I had to do was buy a new gear to match the actual tire size and speedo was corrected.

That's what I ran on mine. It was strong on the low end and still ran 80 on hwy no problem. Recommended tire/gear ratio 37" - 5.13 35" - 4.88 33" - 4.10 31" - 3.73 You can certainly operate outside these perimeters, it's just what I would recommend

This is exactly what I thought when first hearing about the riots and looting. Now even in America riot police usually carry nonlethal weapons. But the fact that everyday patrolman don't carry guns could have lead to the escalation I'm the first place. I mean how much stronger would thugs feel if face with a cop who only carried a stick. And on a side note they know store owners don't have guns. How Many dead looters, at the hands of armed owners, would it take for the riots to subside.

I think db99wj's point on engine and gear ratio is very important when buying a new jeep. Especially if you buy the bigger 4 door. Don't just buy one that lists the highest gas mileage because it may turn out to be a disappointment on performance. Oh and I Agee 100000% DO NOT LEASE A CAR, it's the worst financial decision you could make. It's like buying furniture at rent to own. You end up paying way more than just saving, putting a down payment, and buying the darn thing.

I don't look at it as permission as much as an adult discussion of how our finances are spent. There is no 'my' money it's OUR money, even though she is a full time student and I am the only one earning an actual income. But this is to my advantage cause she is in Medical School and someday when she is bringing in $250k /year I still want it to be OUR money

I would check tread wear at different psi levels maximize your tire life. Best way to do this is take a piece of white chalk and make a like across the tread. Drive a few hundred feet and look at where the chalk has rubbed off. If it's worn more in the middle you need to drop psi and vice versa. I did this on my 08 GMC and I have to run about 38lbs in my BFGs

I had a set of Dunolp Mud Rovers on my 97 TJ. sidewall said 35x12.50 actually measured 34". But to get an accurate measurement I just measured from axel to top of tire cause the weight will bulge the bottom. Just reaffirming that actual sizes vary from sidewall numbers Good lookin jeep

We had a group fly over our tract but they were USFW. oh and they killed 2 pigs! That's expensive hog hunting. Especially when there are so many willing to shoot them for free. Helicopter hunting does not work well in the heavy tall timber terrain. We're not in Texas.

He has a way of doing that

I don't like that a lot of the challenges are decided by non-shooting physical factors. It's called "Top Shot", not "all around badass". With that said the elimination challenges are usually shooting skills only, so that's at least fair. I do like the show wnd will continue to watch.

I think its rediculous that the red team is called "the losers". Half the red team could have beaten the blue team if the pairings were different. I also hate to see the women leave early, I know there are women out there that could win this competition.

My thoughts exactly.
