I have subsonic loads using Hornady SubX bullets developed for 45-50, 454 Casull, 458 SOCOM and 350 Legend. Just waiting for the money to be in the budget for the can.
Thanks much! When you say, "more complicated," is it simply a matter of re-barreling the handgun to have a threaded barrel or is there more to the mechanism?



Is a "suppressor ready" pistol just one with a threaded barrel, or is there more to it than that?
