Just from sweat this time, really bad humid and barely beat the storms back to the house.
First up was the FN with silencer, now this is my first time with a silencer. i made double sure everything was together right. i was not impressed. still had to wear hearing protection. it’s not that quiet and i was shooting 147 grain ball ammo. was below speed of sound. I shot the steel spinner a few rounds but didn’t get a pic.
Next was the SBR, even louder on it. also i had this dot dead on and it was way off. after a while i finally got it back on. tried with no hearing protection and nope, too loud a pop. now it wasn’t quite as loud without it but not by much. truth is this thing will go in a drawer to never see the light of day again most likely.
Just can’t see using it when everything is a whole lot more gunked up and takes twice as long to clean up and still have to wear electronic muffs. I should have read the reviews on this thing before i bought it. big complaints are it’s too loud and accuracy sucks and blowby hits you in the face and yep all of those happened to me. no way id shoot that thing without eye protection. Anyway ya live and learn. Pistol was at ten yards and SBR at 25
Now this gun was a whole different story, this dude is a tack driver. i put it on a rest at 40 yards and the one hole is 9 rounds of 44 mag. sights were dead on, the rest of the targets is me free handing it at 40. about half and half of 44 mag and 44 special. 44 special felt like a 22 in it. lol Gun was a joy to shoot. my arms did get tired holding it up on the last there. i’m old what can i say.
Wow sure is
Did you still wear hearing protection with the silencer?
Yep, had too. was too loud.
Well that’s a bit anti climatic, but, is what it is
44 is still impressive
I shot the spinner with the 44 mag and it knocked it out of the ground and about ten feet back. lol
Your hyperbole is superb !!!
Remind us what brand and model suppressor that is, so we can make note.

Weather here been excellent for riding -fishing - beaching + shooting.
Just a drive by to say Hi
How far away is your shooting set up from the house ?
Had some major lightning last night and not a single rain drop thats a recipe for a brush/forest fire. Its been really dry for a few days . Was not that far from the house only a mile or 2 I could see the bolts were really close
Good morning gunslingers

Afternoon yall. Back home sleeping in my own bed.
