Dear WLS

  • Dusty Bob – Hey guys. I was at a gun show and saw a bunch of revolvers in 350 legend. I get they are catering to the straight wall or pistol hunting regulations but why not revive the 357 max cartridge. With the 357 max you can still shoot 38 or 357 or 357 max. Also I took Jeremy’s advice and watched the used market on suppressors. Picked up a sandman Ti that was a demo for half price. Love the show and been listening for about 6 years. Keep it up

 


  • Greg V – If you could have any gun/s from history which one would it be? I would want the colt 1911 and colt Detective Special .38 that Bonnie and Clyde wore when they were killed.

 


  • Michael C – I enjoyed listening to DT -375 on a long road trip. I hoped to provide further clarification on the topic of “Axe versus Hatchet”Uncle Joe had a friend Bob Bird, Bob had a lot of skills and knowledge about things like ropes, knots, bone fires and building crosses. Bob explained the difference between a hatchet and axe like this- A hatchet is a noun, Axe is a verb.Examples-This is my hatchet. (Hatchet it the noun) Let me Axe you something. (Axe is the verb) Another example can be found in the early English Bible translation, Coverdale Bible; “Axe and it shall be given.”Hope this provides some more insight into tool terminology.Signed,Tm “no-balz” Walz


  • Jack – Recently in the discord we were talking about adding an M203 grenade launcher to our rifles. While it looks cool, If I mount a gun to my gun, I want it to be a gun I can shoot. So I started thinking about my options. Someone posted the below image of a kel tec R50 mounted under an AR (I also included a link in case the image doesn’t come through). This setup has some problems, but I like it. Among those problems are charging and reloading the R50. But at least you have 50 rounds before you have to deal with that shit. I already have a P50, so my first question is, if I mount a P50 pistol under an AR, does it become a rifle, and because of the barrel length an SBR? Second question, what if the rile is a shorty doc that’s already an SBR? Would that tax stamp cover this new accessory, or would I need another tax stamp? I intend to run suppressors on both barrels, so would that be a 4 stamp gun or just 3? Third, what if I used a regular pistol and mounted it as a forward grip? Same questions as before, would that make it an SBR and if so, would the SBR stamp on the shorty doc cover it? Fourth, How can I use a pistol as a foregrip? Most semi autos have reciprocating slides, so they won’t work very well bolted to a gun. The only thing I can think of that would work is a revolver. Do you have any other ideas? https://i.imgur.com/ElXmgrO.jpeg


  • Mios Dios – Is the compact pistol dead? Has the micro compact gun such as the Sig 365, Hellcat, Shield all but taken the Glock 19 size gun down? Yes they are certainly slimmer and in certain cases smaller in other dimensions but what are we sacrificing in the chase for diminutive size? Shootability? Yes, many say they can shoot their pocket rocket just as accurately as their full size gun but is this just them proselytizing to bring them over to the dark side? Capacity? Doesn’t seem like it with the stack and a half mags and aftermarket components like shield arms mags. So where does the “compact”” gun fit into the zeitgeist? Is the Glock 19, M&P 2.0, CZ P10 just the new Fudd gun? Love the show and it is the only time I enjoy hearing people argue. Keep your powder dry and your SSB clean.

  • Matthew P – My wife is into horses and her little sister shows all the time. Due to this I have to go to these horse shows. My question is, why do FFL’s not set up at these shows? Seems like a bunch of guys just hanging around with money to spend and nothing else to do for 8 hours on a Saturday.


  • Fred the Dog – So you going to jump on the 338 arc? Seems like it might fix some of the 8.6 black problems. If you know would love a answer on the woodchuck chucking dilemma.


  • Pleasedontshootmydogatf – Looking at snagging a classic pump 12gu. shotgun that would be used pre 1945. I noticed Brownells has the Mossberg 500 Persuader Retrograde (18.5″) and Mossberg 590 Retrograde (20″). Curious about what the better option would be. The mission/purpose would be range fun. Thanks all yalls. PS, shut up Aaron.

The winner of this week’s swag pack is Matthew P!

  • Meta’s crackdown on firearm-related content has significantly impacted businesses like PDX Arsenal, which now struggles to reach clients online after previously thriving through social media.

Other legitimate gun retailers also report confusion and limitations due to evolving rules, while illegal firearm sellers continue to operate on the platforms with little interruption.

 

  • A referee accidentally shot a competitor in the buttock during a gun competition in Poland after allegedly failing to put the safety on. The incident, captured on video, sparked criticism over safety protocols and the responsibilities of event organizers.
