New/Shot Show Products You Actually Bought
As it's been a few months since Shot Show and several products have finally been released, I'm curious to see how many anons have bought what they said they'd buy and more importantly, how good these products are/aren't, or if you're still waiting for a certain gun or product to be available (ie. Pindad FNCs).

This is me. I want a 300bo wlvrn micron, and they've now said they're officially confirmed they're working on it but no product yet. Otherwise this felt like a gap year for me, lots of stuff that has promise (like starting to see some more regular person level fusion FLIR stuff) but I feel needs to cook another generation. I'm expecting way more interesting stuff this time next year assuming the US doesn't economically implode before then with a debt spiral or whatever.

Since I've seen several DOEs (jealous btw), has anyone gotten one of those Kryon P&W muzzle devices and actually gotten it installed yet? The fixed (F) model makes sense to me

but the Core makes no sense to me. Oversized so it slips over your threads IIRC.

Their marketing seems silly. "Yeah bro don't burn yourself on your silencer just buy this $220 product." However I see more use in it being used to prevent a gun becoming a 2 stamp build if you put a 12.5" on a rifle whether that's an AR, 10/22, MP5, or whatever else. The F has dimples to guide drilling for pinning which they make nearly impossible to see in pics and video. Seems like a good product and what Tacsol should've done from the beginning. Allows access to the base of your silencer and can be thrown on any barrel as long as it's 1/2x28. And yes the filename was Screenshot-2025[...] straight off their site lol.

Thanks for the reminder, that was one I was watching too.
>Their marketing seems silly. "Yeah bro don't burn yourself on your silencer just buy this $220 product."
I sort of figured they decided on the marketing awhile ago before the potential changes to the NFA became clear, and that it was under legal advice to not be too flagrant about OBVIOUSLY trying to bypass SBRs. Because yeah that's 100% what it's for, having some level of heat protection isn't worthless but of course we all did long since via normal suppressor sleeves or whatever. It's actually a pretty clever legal hack and I'm honestly kinda surprised in retrospect nobody tried it ages ago. Good for them.

Also, should be fairly unaffected by the new $0 stamp. If SBRs were deregulated entirely that'd be different, it'd lose its value at that point. But as long as you have to fill out form shit to travel with an SBR (or mg/dd) but not with a suppressor I think it's still got a niche. I'll certainly consider one, and indeed I think it'd be neat if they could strike some partnerships so you could just get a barrel with one direct for various guns and manufacturers.

I know of an integral suppressed 10/22 barrel but I can't remember this specific shroud kit thing? Though no doubt you're right, lots of stuff has been tried as one-offs that didn't take off in the past.
>I was assuming it was their patent holding others back.
Not that a million bullshit patents don't exist, but typically you can't actually patent a broad concept, rather you patent your specific implementation. Bad patents can slide when nobody gives a shit, but here we're talking an industry with plenty of money. And even assuming a super broad patent existed, the NFA dates to 1934, and patents last 20 years. It'd still be sorta surprising that it took 91 years for it to happen for general normal rifles?

Or maybe not. I guess ultimately it's somewhat about market demand, NFA stuff was pretty niche for a long time (by design) because the relative stamp cost was so high. A certain amount of the current market comes from both relaxing gun control and more gun interest, but also from inflation making the $200 stamp ever cheaper. In 1980 $200 would be like $850 today. So maybe it's a combo of improving/cheaper precision manufacturing combined with exploding demand that has caused someone to go for it.

They very recently released it. Like, can't even get the 6" fixed model recently.
>marketing
I poke fun at them but I figured that this was their reasoning as well, though it's strange that Tac-Sol seems to be pretty straightforward about their similar product (pre P&W'd 10/22 barrel) and its purpose. There's a lot of muzzle devices specifically for P&Wing and direct attaching a silencer to it to make a 14.5" meet the 16" minimum, but I suppose them being one of two P&W "silencer cage/cup" makers they'd rather play it safe, which I understand. I'll have to update when mine's in-hand, if this thread is still up. Oddly but understandably it seems you need to also P&W the tube to the base. Same with the 1/2" (Zero5) and 1.5" (One5) extensions, I'm sure. Only noticed in the installation of the fixed model because of the dimples in the base and on the tube. Overall I'm not crazy about the hex design but it could be worse. I'm sure it makes it a lot lighter though.
>as long as you have to fill out form shit to travel with an SBR (or mg/dd) but not with a suppressor I think it's still got a niche
Yep I really don't want to 2 stamp my gun as I have no clue if I'll like how it sounds after. Drop change shouldn't be bad; FPS drop from 16" to 12" is tiny. Even if it's free I don't want to have to deal with SBR regs on a gun I may eventually take hunting out of state. Especially if I later realize SBRing was a fuckup.
>I think it'd be neat if they could strike some partnerships so you could just get a barrel with one direct for various guns and manufacturers.
Absolutely. Having to buy a barrel+Kryon, find a good gunsmith, then one that isn't backed up or waiting weeks, then hoping they don't fuck it up, then paying whatever they want for the work is the reality of getting work like this done. If they partnered with someone to offer modified barrels for common guns quick, easy, and especially at a lower cost than a local smith, I'd have taken that route.

Worth 30 bucks as a test. I like it, handy for range time. Rattles since it's a gravity feed, esp after first reload. Can reload individual rounds/partials. Downside is that if you hit the button to release the rounds into the chamber and you aren't lined up, the entire line of rounds can empty to the ground. Skill issue, not really a deal breaker.

It's TacSol with their SBX barrel. They make the takedown barrel in what appears to be close to if not just a regular carbine barrel profile that should be OK with barrel bands. The normal non-TD 10/22 barrel they only offer in bull barrel profile. Both are them are made in their aluminum sleeved TacSol style in way too light gray and dark grey and some others, too. No options to just get it installed on a Ruger barrel, no carbine non-TD profile, bull only. A lot of silencers fit really snug (I'll see if I can find that pic), and no access slots at the base, so ideally permenantly attached base silencers only rather than 3 piece (base, tube, endcap) plus baffles as it's real easy to get it essentially stuck down there. That product makes my eye twitch a little whenever I see it as it's so close to being perfect. Them not offering it on ANYTHING but a 10/22 barrel also makes me exceedingly confused. What a novel concept...almost completely wasted in its execution.

Should be feasible too, again to the point of the thing. Since the result would be a "standard rifle barrel" in terms of not being NFA should also just be normal parts like any other barrel and you can get it direct to your house in the mail. Not having to deal with any F1 business even if it was free would be nice too, just one less bit of irritation (however minor), and as well as swap back to a 16" barrel could also just sell the entire rifle whenever desired. Engraving and so on also is one extra step.

Not that I don't still really want the HPA/SHORT to pass on their own someday but I'm glad these dudes are going ahead in the mean time (which of course could be a long time).

Thanks a bunch anon, was genuinely curious. The one I was thinking of and considered getting at one point (and unfortunately waited too long on, they seem to be ded now) was the EOS-22, but totally different and that does indeed look like a neat approach.
>What a novel concept...almost completely wasted in its execution.
It's depressing how often this happens honestly. A lot of the time it seems that it's not really the first person to come up with an idea but the first person to actually do it right and get all the fiddly bits done, and with the right timing. Which often doesn't happen so then cool concepts die on the vine and can stay dead for a frustratingly long time before someone else picks it up again.

They only made the interior diameter of the TacSol SBX 1.10". A lot of 1" tubes out there would fit but ideally with a fixed base only. Here is a 1.07" Mask HD from an old thread. IDK what the Kryon shroud will be internally but it'll definitely not be that damn small! Good on Guntology (lol) for improving what I had previously complained about TacSol failing to improve. Hopefully this leads to this kind of product becoming much more popular assuming we don't get the full SHORT act (or it takes forever). PS: Guntology seems like a pretty small niche company (~12 views on the install viseos lol) but if they keep these kind of very useful neat product releases up I hope they get the recognition they deserve. Because it ABSOLUTELY did not get jack shit for coverage or interest anywhere I looked. No one I've ever talked to has heard about it.

I really wanted to email TacSol and see if they'd let me send them a regular 18" carbine barrel to chop and attach their tube to but after finding out how awful the internal size was and the realization of no acess to the base kicked in, I kinda gave up on it. Kryon may have gone pretty large (thinner tube & exterior dia seems to line up with some handguards) but I'd rather err on the side of caution like on the Kryon, especially taking vibration and harmonics BS into mind. I really think 0.05" in the TacSol SBX on either side may have been cutting it close assuming a 1" silencer tube. That's 1.27mm. Looks good but fuck that is barely any wiggle room. I never thought any company would answer my needs; thought I'd have to get a smith to make it. Also it appears to be pretty simply made. Looks like a 1/2x28 to 1/2x28 adapter welded to the base with the tube separate. Wayyyy easier than what I was designing to get fabricated. Funny enough somewhere I have an "ideal concept" sketch predating the Kryon's reveal by several months that is - no shit - almost exactly what they'd reveal next ShotShow. I was stunned to say the least that I got my wish, lol.

I probably have the pics from the "it's unloaded bro" thread and some from 22 related threads saved but I'd have to dig around some hard drives to find them if you need those two. I vaguely remember keywords of my old posts so I was barely able to find your pic for this thread on desuarchive. On a side note, your taste in 22s is very similar to mine except the 10/22 being TD and Magpul (?) stocked. I have way more vintage semi auto 22s percent-wise, though, mostly by dumb luck of what was available cheap in decent condition.

Damn, that's a shame. Related, I've been trying to find some local gunsmiths and my options are limited; either I can't find a recommendation from someone saying they do good barrel work or they have a vague backlog of work that will take an unknown amount of time to work through. Does not seem easy to find someone to do either kind of work. On the topic of those old threads, I've put off making a choice about what I want to do on my 10/22 but once the Kryon shroud was announced the choice was pretty much made for me. It isn't cheap (spare barrel ~$90 w/ ship, Kryon ~$220 free ship, unknown smithing costs) but at least I won't get my Mask HD stuck. On the other hand I've now spent a ton of money on my 10/22 and I think this is pushing it into the $2k range, all for a gun to hunt squirrels with, LOL. That is including mags and silencer (as well as the stamp?), though, and the Mask is something like $500 + stamp, so it brings the total up quick.

To expand on what I was saying before, the retention of the rounds feels more secure, as they are supported further down compared to my regular cheap-ass speed loaders. It comes with a swappable back-plate that let you put a traditional feeling solid/non moving pop-socket looking thing. Extends the length, but it gives a good spot for a more positive mechanical grip point. I don't know much about polymer, but the body is a solid/dense feeling plasticish thing.

The button that releases the rounds has a decent amount of spring tension behind it, and it's protected from accidental actuation by the rounds when fully loaded. Once the first reload has been done, the rounds themselves are free sliding in their little grooved tracks inside the body. It's worth noting that large grips, especially ones that extend upwards on the revolver and also ones that widen the grip area may affect the angle the loader can line up to the cylinder. Essentially, the imagine the end of the cylinder extending infinitely out into space, and if that intersects with your revolver grips it's going to cause some problems.

All told, I think it's a nice little thing, especially for the price. I carry my revolver when I'm out in the back country, and having a more solid/durable way to carry 18 rounds in a similar volume to two traditional speed loaders has an appeal.

Looks like decent glass reinforced nylon if I had to make a guess. Might be wrong. I'm surprised it seems like a high quality and functional product; I remember seeing it and going "the fuck is that?" It just seems like a product that no one else would test and redesign and build well so that's a pleasant surprise. The issue with grips also happens with normal speedloaders to some degree, so no real surprise there.

I wonder what else that company makes.

Nah I don't need the pics again, it was more funny that its easier for me to lurk /k/ for my old pics than to try to get the old phone to turn on and backup my pics from it.

My taste in .22s mostly comes from filtering thru old pawn shops that would have a barrel of cheapo rimfires for diamonds in the rough to pretty up. And then more from people bringing in bullshit to the gun shop I work at. Most of those I paid less than $100 for (some I paid far more for stocks or replacement parts than the gun itself), and since that pic I've added a nylon 66 and a Marlin 783.

Any gunsmith worth their work will have a backlog. That just comes with the reputation. If they don't have a long backlog, there's probably a reason why. Well, as long as they're actually getting work out the door too, a buddy of mine has had an AK kit build at a smith for damn near 3 years now (been waiting at "It just needs paint and it will be done! Promise!" since January). That said, cutting and threading a barrel to pin and weld after shouldn't be any problem for most any smith.

I fucking love seeing little things like this showing up out of nowhere.

I get it, revolvers are obsolescent in the year 20XX, but I also like em so neat little things like this are absolutely worth my dime to try em out.

You can also unscrew 4 screws on the front of the loader, detach the mechanism portion, and add the flat plate or the knob plate and have a traditional style 6 shot loader. All the parts came with it, and I enjoy having that option, even if it takes some fiddling around to do it.

I own the PR57 and I'd say wait. It has a hard time shooting boutique ammo like anything vanguard makes. Most common failure is a double feed, you can't pull the mag so clearing it is an absolute bitch. Stripper clips work well and it feels good, when the gun works it's satisfying; but I've had more jams on this one gun than my entire lifetime on every other gun. I got it because I own all the existing 5.7 handguns on the market so I am keep a complete collection. If you want something light and cheap go with the PSA Rock, I fucking hate PSA but that grip feels very natural for the longer cartridge, it's a good price, mags are cheap, and it's fed every boutique round I could feed it. If you want to put a red dot on the Rock be aware PSA is retarded and it's possible to put long screw through the striker housing and brick your gun. Best shooter is the SW 5.6, hate how long the barrel is and the gap between frame and slide is really gross.

I forgot to mention I haven't tried putting an optic on the PR57 so no idea if the mounting system is any good, and the trigger incredibly weird. The gun is SAO but the trigger feels like double action; Meaning the gun MUST be "cocked" in order to fire but when you pull the trigger you will see the hammer move. I'm not sure why they didn't just make it DAO which would give the same trigger feel with the option to restrike.

Speaking of restriking I forgot to mention that I had issues with light primer strikes. I would never trust my life to a PR57, it's a range toy ONLY. I really would just wait for a Gen2 version unless you're an autist like me.

Can you at least open up the bottom and dump the rounds like you can with a C96?
Also, they should make a model with a long barrel and a detachable stock/brace for faggots like me who are really into Star Wars and cyberpunk and shit. I don't even care if it sucks, I'd buy the shit out of that.

Not really, there is a roll pin you can punch out and then the bottom will come out so it's clearly meant specifically for cleaning the magazine only. If they made it open from the bottom it'd probably violate the "non detachable magazine" concept I assume they are using for legal reasons; which is dumb because I don't think this thing complies with any ban states. You have to cycle the action and eject live rounds to clear it. The "feed ramp" is VERY shallow so the moment a round gets hung up it's a clusterfuck to clear the jam, you basically have to use a tool or round to pry at the stuck round and then manually cycle the gun. On the C96, SKS, mosin and a bunch of other fixed mag guns you can open the mags form the bottom, I really didn't appreciate this feature until getting a PR57.

If you find a good combo of ammo and the thing runs it's super fun because it's ultralight, low recoil, loud/flashy and the stripper clip feeding is fun. Like I said its really a range toy.

I'm sure the Soviets copied this off every bolt action with a magwell base that had a latch but it's really genius. It rarely needs to be used but when it does, it really does. And IIRC that spring is double-use on the SKS but I may be wrong.

I've been thinking about a Mini-14 in .300 speaking of .300. Not sure if I'll go through with it.

Well shit, looks like discussion is just about dead. Might post a second thread or maybe just a couple pics when my shit comes in. I was hoping to see a couple more reviews of new shit and how well it does/doesn't work.

I reload, so honestly I’d be looking at getting a suppressor and loading subsonic…. Which should work really well with a lever gun as a base.

I'd probably be buying subs for the mini. I'm just worried being such a niche model that Ruger may not have fully thought out the conversion. Shouldn't need too much different but I really don't want it to jam like a motherfucker. No one has one, of course, and those who do, most don't have a silencer for some reason lol.

Having the Kryon in hand (the 5" model), I can share some observations. The box has a cardstock printed sleeve around it. It's held together with two tape loops and a strip in the middle to tape the sleeve to the inner box, so you'll need to peel up one loop of tape to cut that center strip holding the sleeve to the inner box if you don't want to totally destroy it; usually companies just use two of those circular disc tape pieces here but I don't doubt this is batch 1, release version 1 and things may change. Comes with two Guntology stickers and the product in a foam sleeve. Muzzle device is dimpled for a P&W pin hole to attach to the barrel. The tube is not dimpled so I'm unsure if they intend that to be pinned as well. Finish is nice and matte with a little sparkle, like a Leupold scope. Base is shiny and blued; sticks to a magnet. Tube is aluminum. The adapter on its own (base) adds about 3/4" to the end of the muzzle. From base of adapter to tip it's about 1.5". While the tube itself is 5", the tube with the base is about 5 1/16". The whole thing measures about 5 9/16" including the muzzle device attached to the base and tube. Internally the tube is about 4 3/4" base to end but only 4 5/8" from where your silencer will butt up against to the end of the tube. Internally, the tube is roughly 2 3/32" diameter so it can fit some reasonably sized silencers, not just super skinny ones for 22s. Weighs 180g total, base ~103.5g, 5" tube ~76.5g. Way more info than anyone seems to have put out there so here you go, 4chan exclusive.

>The tube is not dimpled
Correction: the base is dimpled on the underside to be drilled for a pin to secure the tube. I'm not sure how strong that connection would be. Actually not sure of the tube material thinking about it. I only know it's not steel.

Not sure if this was at SHOT but here's an AC-556 inspired folding stock for the SKS. Honestly surprised someone read my mind here as I was thinking of converting an A-TM to SKS spec whether that meant opening the A-TM stock or using a damaged SKS stock to graft an A-TM folding mechanism on the back. Also comes in triangle folder flavor. He also claims to have an SKS FRT in progress FWIW. Maker is Hush Holsters. My only complaint is that the vent cuts are on the stock and the stockline seems a bit low. The Chinese SKSs do not have the vent cuts on the stock, only the handguard, at least on mine.
