AAC Ruger 10/22

Advanced Armament Corp (AAC) is thinking outside of their Freedom Group box and engineering some integrally suppressed Rugers.  Starting in a few months, AAC will be selling Ruger 10/22s with  integral suppressors built in the barrel.

The new AAC 10/22 has a built in integral suppressor that can be taken down to clean out the barrel and baffles which are pretty much one unit (plusa long shroud and a cap).  The best part of the AAC 10/22 is that it keeps the normal 10/22 barrel length and its suppressed–which means only 1 tax stamp.  One of the first things a shooter will do after buying and receiving a suppressor is apply to make it a SBR since that suppressor usually ads at least 5-6 inches to the overall barrel length and not to mention the added weight.

Hopefully AAC will have some of these new 10/22 silent plinkers at their upcoming Annual Silencer Shoot this June.  If  you have the opportunity to go, I would strongly suggest taking that opportunity–the event is going to be held in Memphis Tennessee this year (Beale St., Blues and BBQ!).  Every year these suppressed only shooting events are getting bigger, and this year should be the biggest yet.

Glock G27 Gen4

Last December I reported that Glock was shipping the subcompact G26 with a Gen4 RTF frame. This year they will also be shipping the G27 (subcompact .40 S&W) with a Gen4 frame.

I have to point at that the Gen4 and RTF are different things. The RTF was out on a couple of models before the Gen4s were out. The Gen4 is more than a redesigned grip as well, most notably the recoil spring system is redesigned. It’s also true that the RTF grip texture and slide serrations were different as well.

Ahhh, my least favorite Glock to fire with high stepping combat loads. Followed by the 23. I can tolerate the 22 though.

I wonder why they decided not to go with a rail?
