Thread: mild steel 22lr suppressor

I have one Bill, but still use it, would swap it for a cheep aluminim one if you have one of those kicking around

Yes a hand gun in a small back pack, every pig hunters dream

yea mate ill do you a swap, I have only what I would call a nice 22 suppressor but that is only a win for you.
what kind is it? so I can pull a pic up and see what your looking at?

I have no idea, i dont think it has any stamping, springs and washers inside it, not even sure of thread, it fits my jw15 i will try take a pic later today for you

Mine is a worth nothing type i think, i was given it 17 years ago , see if someone else has a cheepy for me to give away and keep your good one
or i could flick you some coin as well

Handgun hunting would be cool but then how many inexperienced shooters would try to play the big hero and buy a 500 S&W as their first hunting handgun

Provided they could afford ammo 1 shot would show them it's a dumb idea.

What would be a good round to knock a pig over at point blank to say 15feet or so? Purely out of interest

45apc if you want sub sonic

Otherwise what ever comes up the cheapest almost anything works at 15 yards

In a pistol? .357 mag would do it. Probably even a .38 if you could get a good shot in. My dad use to smoke pigs with his ToZ so I can't see how a pistol of anything larger that .25ACP would be bad.

160mm long, lots of tiny dings and shows its age

Did this on my phone, so sorry about the pics being sideways

expressedly forbidden in this country is a pain in the ass,
I have seen a pig hunter carry a shortened down bolt action with the buttstock cutt off in a holster on his hip while out in the bush
So even a 22 pistol aparently does the job
