Was trying to determine the largest calibre firearm you can own in the UK and (tying into the previous chat about suppressors came across a document from the British Association of Shooting and Conservation (my bold)...

4. Sound Moderators.
There often appears to be an unfounded fear of sound moderators. They are seen,
perhaps, as the tool of either poacher or assassin. One can only say that should such
gentlemen require “silencers” they would be unlikely to apply to the police for
permission to acquire them!
Setting such groundless fears aside, there are several excellent reasons why an
applicant may wish to reduce the noise made by the discharge of a rifle. For that is all
that a sound moderator does; it has no other function; it merely reduces the
“boom” of the discharge. This benefits the ears not only of the shooter (who is
nearest to it) but also those of other people in the vicinity and the much more sensitive
ears of nearby livestock. This is particularly so at night when much rabbit and fox
control takes place.
A moderator may also be appropriate for deer control either in a park or close to
human habitation where disturbance is best kept to a minimum.
The nearest approach to actual silence is when a moderator of very high quality is
fitted to a .22 R/F rifle firing low powered ammunition at below the speed of sound
(approx 1100fps). Sound moderators cannot reduce the supersonic crack caused by the
flight of high velocity bullets.
In some situations, quite apart from any benefit to the operator, it may be an act
of social responsibility to fit a sound moderator to a rifle.
My statement was based mostly on faulty memory based on a vague lack of caring. I don't own a gun and I probably never will I don't hunt and I have more than enough time playing lets kill each other under my belt to know I don't want that option making the purchase of one pointless. There is something cathartic of having something make loud noises but that is easily substituted with something else. But I'm digressing.Quote:

I could be full of it and I probably am mostly because I have very little interest in knowing the absolute facts.
This statement gets complicated when you realize that there is federal and state and possibly city legislation that is widely amorphous on this subject.
Does Hornady still make light magnum loads for the 30-06? Anyone know where I can get them? My Google-foo is weak today
I would start with the online retailers in your country where you may procure from and purchase there and/or just email them.Quote:

Is it lighter than underslung saiga? Most probably is.
Does it have bigger capacity than good old 870 masterkey? Yes.
Worth jackshit standalone? Nah.
On the plus side the grip looks good.
Which is just another reason letting civilians carry in public is a pisstake.

Canucks are kinds late to the OICW train.

The new fad are guided bullets or, in russia's case, midget missiles.

Not MY MAGIC GUN FIRES MAGIC BULLETS DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA.
Also regardless of just how magic that gun is meant to be, it looks fucking ugly and a nightmare to use it prone.
Why do you think it has NOT MAN FIREABLE all over it?
(2 ez)
Maybe Canada is running a Terminator program?
Well the thing is, if you can scale a guidance system down far enough to stick it in a .50 cal round, it's trivial to scale the round up a bit and chuck some explosives in it. (Hence, I believe, Razor's comment on midget missiles.) Smart anti-personnel explosive launchers have been a dream for three decades, and this is one more way to chase them.Quote:

-O
what is the legal shit on mounting another fire arm to a firearm IE a masterkey is that allowed in the US? or will the ATF shit a brick because the shotty is under SBR length?
