One of those on a Steel Challenge course sounds like real fun.
... or just with some steel in the back yard. |

HUGE difference, otherwise my Mark IV 22 is also one of my most fun 22s. As a comparison the Scythe (30 cal suppressor is 7.3 oz, the Warlock 22 suppressor is 3 oz. |

View Quote "Better" for one guy isn't necessarily "better" for all. Lighter isn't always better. I've shot my 22/45 Lite with both the 6oz Mask and the 4oz E2 and I prefer the Mask. The Lite's are too light and need the extra weight IMO. That's why so many put muzzle brakes on the end of them (for the added weight). |

I shoot in areas where full volume 22lr draws Karen's and I love not wearing ears. my moded mk4 is always close and the only time the can stays home is if I have to pass thru illannoy |

That actually made me laugh out loud. In 15 years of shooting together, I don’t think she ever learned how to field strip a single one of her firearms.
