Take two - 22LR CMMG 9" barrel and bolt with longer hand guard to tuck the suppressor under.

Sweet looking setup

This one took a long time to get approved. I bought it at the end of 2020. 4 stamps to transfer. A DLO Sterling MK5. Very quiet!

That's pretty sweet there R.

That's pretty sweet there R.

Thanks! It took me about 6-7 years to find the right deal on a MK5. I'm done buying for now. Nothing left in the NFA pipeline to be approved.

Nice! Why 4 stamps?

A stamp for the subgun and one for the suppressor to get it from an out of state seller to my dealer. Form 4 transfers. Then a stamp for the subgun and one for the suppressor to get from my dealer to me. Also Form 4 transfers. $800 in tax stamps. The positive here is that the gun is now worth about $5K++ more than my purchase price back in 2020.

Thanks. I didnt realize transfers to dealers required a stamp.

They do if it is a Form 4 transfer (individual to dealer). Form 3 transfers (dealer to dealer) are tax free.

So, the burning question is, how long did the transfer take?

My first $5 stamp: 1973 Savage 24 in .22LR / 20ga. 15” bbl 31” oal 6 lbs.

Dov-- That is cool. My uncle had one in 22/410 (non SBR) when I was a kid. I used to love shooting it. He left it to me when he passed but his a$$hole SIL said he couldn't find it. I always wanted another.​

ARGH! That was suppose to be mine!!!

Looks awesome. Need to stop out and do some shooting with the club sometime soon.

I submitted the first set of Form 4's in late December of 2020. The second set of Form 4's in June of 2021. So about 17 months total.

Let me know if you are going to one of the shoots.

So my first NFA item. I just received the approval and Stamp yesterday. Compared to some of the things I've seen on here it's pretty ordinary but I like it.

Aero precision upper and lowers. CMMG LPK. Faxon 10.5 barrel. Toolcraft BCG. Kaw Valley muzzle device. SIG Romeo MSR sight. The stock is a Rogers SuperStoc that I took off a colt M4 a few years ago. The only blingy thing I used was the Strike Industries Gridlock hand guard.

Now, I just need to get to the range to try it out.

Finally got my Silencerco Omega 36M, ordered Dec 2020, arrived at my FFL and filed the F4 paperwork in June 2021. Took it out last weekend with a lot of hosts to see how it sounds and handles. It was worth the wait, 9mm/36 cal bore with modular mounts, encaps and for K/full size configs. It uses the Charlie/Saker tapered mount and caps despite the "Omega" name. It is flat out the best "one can for all" I have tried, have shot the DA Wolfman, YHM N20, Rugged M30, and own a Griffin Optimus. Main thing this has going is the Modular mount, so I can run my Griffin Taper mounts with a plan A adapter, 3 lug, DT or booster/piston. Rugged cans use their proprietary mount, DA uses the keymo micro for rifles, even though the YHM can take SiCo Bravo mounts, like the Wolfman, the blast chamber is really short so you need a long mount or a short muzzle device. The 36M with the plan A allows 2" muzzle devices AND their linear comp, or the included ASR, or other 3rd party mounts like the Q plan B. The 36M is also rated up to 338 Lapua in short or long, and has reasonable barrel length restrictions, 10" in 5.56, 16" in 308, none for 300BO subs or supers. It's also useable in both configs, it's only 5.25"/12.5oz in K config with the griffin taper mount, or 7.25"/15oz in full size, similar to the others, but MUCH better than my Optimus's 6.5" base 9mm config and 8-10" length in 30cal rifle config.

It sounds really good, supposed to be on par with an Omega 9K or YHM R9 in short config, and on par with the Omega 300 in long, and sounds about right. It's really good on 300BO, especially in long config, and excellent on 5.56 in K with the 22cal flash hider end cap. It works as advertised, but it's fat/heavy for handgun use. It really is a rifle can that "can" be used on handguns, although it sounds decent and is at home on PCCs. The caps/mounts and extension are all threaded, but between the mating surfaces and tapered surface of the Charlie mount and Griffin's taper design they don't come loose when shooting, they tighten up when warm, but come apart as designed with the supplied tools when it cools. It is a tubeless welded core/s with essentially a titanium sleeve around the outside with the serial# and grip texture, so provided the tube doesn't blow out the side, it should be easily repairable regardless of what goes wrong. It does sound really good, hard to tell the difference between this and my dedicated 30cal cans of the same size, and the smaller 22cal end cap defintely makes 5.56 sound good. It has about average backpressure in long configuration for a full size can, pretty low backpressure in short config. Probably don't need AGB to run in short, but it definitely cuts down on port pop in 5.56 and 308, and it's a good idea if running in long. I ran it in 5.56 and 308 with my standard AGB settings that run with or without my other cans and this can ran just fine, no AGB in the 300BO, and just fine as well. IMO it's ideal for pretty much any centerfire AR9/10/15, good balance of size/weight/backpressure/suppression. It would probably be about the best first or "only" centerfire can if I were to recommend one.

pictured in short with 22 FH end cap, short with 3 lug, long on a 300BO, long on an AR308, short on pistol/booster, and the parts I've collected.
