(Part 2) Top products from r/NFA

This is a bit big for a pistol suppressor, but it might give you some ideas.

Me and a friend spent quite a bit of time looking for off the shelf parts to use in a form 1 can and stumbled upon something quite remarkable. A 3/4 oz. jigger is an almost perfect fit in a NAPA 4003 fuel filter. Simply split it from the other end of the jigger, mount it in the chuck and bore a hole in the center. Then turn down a tube of 1.5" ID aluminum to fit inside and cut into sections for spacers. We have completed them and they have held up to 5.56 NATO and full power 300 Blackout without any problems. Oh, they work quite well too! Very quiet with subsonic 300 Blackout. I hope to make a DIY thread soon. This will have to do until I get some of the lathe pics.

Edit: Get can here

Split jiggers

Here's the jiggers after being separated.

Front and back of baffle and spacer.

Two baffle stacks stacked.

First coat of paint! Here you can see we faced the end cap and knurled it. I also drilled two holes in the front of the cap so I could use a spanner wrench in case it gets stuck.

On one of the hosts. 300 Blackout pistol.

Tear down after a day at the range. Here you can see we milled the blast baffle to reduce weight. I hope to mill the spacers to further reduce weight. It is especially dirty because I used wire pulling gel on some subsonic ammo to see just how quiet it could get. Very impressive performance for the money spent.

Yes I do clip. I did the DHC style clips on mine.

What are you talking about SS with Ti coating? Sounds like some BS to me. Who are you thinking of buying from?

As far as making it, engage your brain, and dont rush. Especially on the clipping. Take a good tungsten bit on the dremel to do the swoop cuts. amazon.com/Dremel-9901-Tungsten-Carbide-Cutter/dp/B00004UDJJ


I'd recommend buying a new drill bit or 2 in the sizes you are going to use. I like the black oxide uncoated ones from Dewalt, Lowes sells them individually (in a ton of sizes).

Throw a piece of high temp tape over the opening. It'll help quite a bit.

Like this: https://www.amazon.com/3M-High-Temperature-Flue-15-Foot/dp/B00004Z4DS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1506484316&sr=8-3&keywords=furnace+tape

Buy one of these too to make nice little ends:

I guess, since it's .22, you can probably start with some masking tape and see if that smokes eventually.

Good looking setup OP. Add you a dehumidifier you can recharge and you will keep it from trapping moisture in there. I have two of these I rotate.

I used M35 grade cobalt steel. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MZZS2Y5 and https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PTZ4XFW . I don't know anything about drilling metal, so maybe carbide would have been better.

For the drill press, I used https://www.harborfreight.com/10-in-12-Speed-Bench-Drill-Press-63471.html , which is a 10 inch .6 horse power drill press that goes down to 300 RPM. It was still underpowered at 300 RPM, so it got stuck sometimes. I worked around that.

For each cone I started at either 3/32 or 7/64 (I don't remember) and worked my way up, sometimes skipping one or two of the smaller drill bits.

I would recommend picking up a cone holder. I clamped the cone between two pieces of oak, which sort of worked. A correctly sized cone holder would have made it easier, though.

I went with Bosch Cobalt bits rather than that set above :

I think these should work better, have one for my pilot hole (17/64) and one for my larger hole 27/64 Also got a 13/32 for the last baffles and will probably use it on the endcap as well.

Spritz it. Water bottle.

I use one of these, too.

I ran in to the same thing with mine.

I asked Rugged, and their answer was to point me here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001HZQW0Y/

I used their shims and those wrenches to install all of my muzzle devices.

here. I got my D tube from SDTactical. I have this muzzle break. I went to AutoZone but they wanted $2 for just one and they had only one in store.

I'm thinking about getting a pair of non marring pliers and throwing them in my range bag.

Ah gotcha.

Also just watched the videos you posted, very slick for a diy job! I wish I had a drill press (I saw you could use a hand drill) and a chop saw for cutting stainless tubing (edit, fuck the saw, just need something like this bad boy). I suppose I could run the PVC but I would think that shit would start to melt pretty damn quick.

Seems almost wrong to post one without the star gate patches to go with it.

Anyway enjoy the gun. I will give two hints that can help others that want to try it.

First is you can buy the thin wrenches if you want. I have these.

Something like this should work as well.

As far as getting the stupid blind pin out. Most people are going to mess up the shroud anyway so if you are going to cut down the barrel just bandsaw it right behind the pin. I had brought my ps90 to tsc to do the engraving before I form 1'd it. Mike asked if he was doing the barrel work and said he had the stuff to thread it right. I told him to just sbr it and transfer it back to me, he walked over and just the shroud and had it apart in seconds. He then took measurements and cut it down and threaded it correctly for the p90 bilug flash hider I was going to use.
