Looks hard case.
Righto go shoot something with it, show us your first group at 20m

Right stage 2,go to Repco and buy some Frostplugs to fit down the barrel,center dill them to 10mm,and drift them down to the 9mm insert.once you figure out what a frostplug is you'll work it out.

Toby what do you call that colour? And don't you be telling me Mauve.

Haha! it's safer then if I go poking things in the barrel though I was thinking about putting the washers and springs into a ali tube then putting that whole thing in the barrel so its easy to remove. Once I know for sure the bullets are going to fly out properly then I'll have a think about though it sounds like a lot of work
The picture makes it look an extremely dark iridescent green.
Not enough coats of black ?
Don't use springs to separate the washers use ali tube. But that frost plugs idea is even better.

MadJon bet me to it but yea just give the welds a grind then chain saw file then wet and dry around the file.
Bit of silicon in the sides let it fully cure and paint. It ain't coming off.
As for internal suppressor i would be goin for more than 10mm holes, you don't know how well it the insert will align.
Id go more like 12-13mm. To be on the safe side.
It's a bit rough around the edges but it'll do me for now. I think those frost plug ideas drilled to 12-13mm as VC says using ali tube like GM says would make a decent one. Can call it the mad gadgey cam suppressor :D
good work Toby - a project is a project and you learn something everytime. Looks ok to me if it's functional who cares, you even look to have a -20moa rail on it ;-)
Shot this thing today. It's the shit, so much fun. Hitting A4 at 20m but only just though I think the red dot isn't helping. Still awesome mate loves it though think he loved the wsm after he shot that
Well it is a good thing you survived the exercise Toby. A4 at 20 metres huh?
Mate shooting it. Looks pretty sweet if I do say so myself. I'd show the target but its just holes everywhere in the paper some hit side ways haha.

I'd suggest you dont try suppressing the inside of the barrel based on the test fire results!. As the insert isn't rifled there is nothing to stabilize the
projectiles hence the tumbling and hitting the target sideways?. If you're happy with the rest of the build, why not investigate getting a short piece of barrel
blank made up to take the place of the existing insert?
Yeah the suppressor idea went out the window when I saw the target. I don't think I'll do much to this gun again but I want another one with a rifled barrel
So likely grouping just slightly worse than it would if left as a shottie?
Nah shotguns aren't this fun thought I should of brought some 7s and had a blast I bet that'd be fun
She'd be a real scatter gun now.
It served it's purpose.
was just trolling FB and saw your photos. How do you know Zane?
You mustve done something right cos he never wants to come shooting with us.
It's pretty small
New Member here - so G'Day All . There's a guy in Wellington who advertises Chamber adapters for 12 gauge to .357 /38" etc. on TRADEME. - I bought one and no complaints as nicely made - something like a 'snapcap'.
Welcome Martyk.
Brother put a #3 2/3" 36gram load through it today and didn't blow up. Can call it a success. Looked at some reloading data and saw it is very easy to make 9mm subsonic so at a later date I'll be reloading 9mm
Is the sub idea to make it a quiet-ish up close pig/possum despatcher?
mainly just quiet. I can't run so pig hunting days are long gone but Im going to try get my brother to use it or a mate to try it out
I got one of these inserts and tested it today through an old legal sawnoff breakopen 12G - it was probably fairly loud but wearing muffs I've no idea.
No aiming system just point it at things that I'd like to put a hole into and a 44 leaves a pretty big hole
As Toby says, it's good for shits and giggles, quieter than a shotgun shell out of the same gun and the only real surprise overall was that the recoil was guesstimated at about half that of a shotgun shell.
I expected much more of a kick
Range is pretty much point blank but a bit of fun for forty bucks so no complaints here
Righto guys, after shooting a few targets and then forgetting to bring the insert bit for the last look for a goat I remembered this time and have got 2 kills with her. Little one shot at 5m big one about 15m

Little one was the photo of the wounds. It took about 2 steps and fall over the other one was shot under the jaw in the neck and dropped like a sack of shit
