    Final part of the pistol job

    The final stage in this latest project is now complete, with the manufacture of a suppressor for the little Walther. As is the way, K baffles are the go to for sub sonic situations and in this instance we went for a painted exterior and bare internals for economic reasons for the customer (I would normally go full anodized).

    It turned out great and is very comfortably hearing safe, which is a good result for something that is very definitely not hearing safe without a can.

    Nice work indeed. Does the pistol cycle properly with that suppressor?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Your client could use the money saved on anodising to buy a dinner jacket and bow tie......

    I usually do but customers budget would not allow it. FYI Anodizing Industries (AIL) in Penrose are great to deal with

    So did you use DuraCoat ?

    I recently used DuraCoat on two of my tri-metal contender barrel because they were steel, stainless steel and alloy.

    DuraCoat did a great job and relatively easy to apply
    No cook, just a longer air dry

    For those not in the Dr know, it was a bastardised quote from a James Bond movie

    Advanced Anodizing in Tokoroa did an amazing job on mine. post to them and received them back in just over 2 weeks. I asked for each to be in a different colour- as bright as poss, they just put them in with random orders that came through in different colours. I ended up with green, blue & pink
