The CCF might be what you're after, I've had mine apart for cleaning a few times, very simple.

The TL29 is nothing more than the military electrician's knife. Called the signal corps knife in the first war.
The 1974 original is to the right. The one on the left is presently filling the billet.
The one in the middle - it's my bench knife. Probably used more than any others I have but not very sexy.
I also snagged a WW2 vintage TL29 from Utiica (wood scales).
Notice the rust on all three blades.
Carbon steel - real steel.
I've been reading some stuff about what's going on in Canada and you have basically two options. Stay where Canada is, and toss the whole thing into the bin and ruin the country for the sake of Liberal stupidity.
I only have a .22 suppressor now (Tactical Innovations Stratus) and LOVE IT!!! It doesn't have the highest sound reduction, but it still is very effective and I wanted the user disassembly feature as well. I've been shopping for a 45 ACP suppressor and would like to know some first hand experience with different cans.
Sorry I haven't been contributing to the forum too much lately. Even though I've gotten over most of my personal issues, there has been one thing that has taken up a lot of my time.
And that is the election tomorrow.
Here in Canada, our national election day is tomorrow.
I know that those of my friends on this forum from the US will be concerned with their own upcoming election,and those in other countries will not be much concerned either way.
Still, I would ask, if you can, spare a thought or a prayer for me tomorrow.
Because it is very, very, very important.
There is only one serious and credible choice for Canadians to vote for tomorrow, but it is by no means certain that we will vote him in.
So far, Canada has been able to avoid much of the turmoil that the US has suffered in the banking industry. This is because of stern leadership from the incumbent Prime Minister, who refuses to knuckle under and coddle special interest groups. This is because of a leader that refuses to bow to fear mongering to take artificial "steps" to "correct" things that don't need correcting.
All of the other parties running in the election have candidates that want to engage in social engineering.
At the taxpayer's expense.
This is not the time for that kind of dodgy experimentation.
Steady as she goes is the phrase of the day.
That's the way to go in these waters.
I think it works very well and is well made (not spot welded together). I only have about 200 rounds through it (I'm also using a USP Tactical) but it has had no stoppages. The level of suppression is good, I can shoot it without hearing protection and not get any ringing in my ears.
The September 2007 issue of Special Weapons magazine has an article comparing suppressors from Advanced Armament Corp (AAC), Knight's Armament Company (KAC) and Capital City Firearms (CCF). The levels of suppression given in their testing show all three being within two decibels of each other either wet or dry.
[suppression levels in decibels]
KAC. dry 22,wet 32
AAC. dry 21,wet 32
CCF. dry 20,wet 33
How does the Impulse perform? I've seen them advertised on CCA's site and was thinking about one for my USP Tactical.
With a quality +P hollowpoint like a silvertip, golden saber, or hydrashock I'm sure it will do fine if it is ever needed. But at least it's inexpensive to shoot as far as centerfire goes.
As to .40, well it's suppose to be a compact P220 pistol so who knows. But seeing as these are German police trade-ins and as I recall .40 considerably exceeds 9mm pressure ratings I wouldn't bank on it.
The P255 is a true Gem of a pistol. It does everything well and has little downsides.
I just don't really care for the caliber all that much, but it will do.
I wonder if a clever gunsmith could convert that to a .40.
Engine was blue-printed and yes, it's chipped. Damn near every truck is chipped out here. BFG AT's and Chips are the only way things roll here. If you've never been out here, it's hard to express the magnitude of that statement. This is Truck Country like no other location I've ever seen - and I've been all around this big beautiful country. Lots of places like their trucks... but not like here.
Oh, and it's sporting a huge Rockford Fosgate amp under the driver's seat. The dash has a perfect spot to mount the Valentine One, which was only an offer for one of The Horde... otherwise, I'm keeping that thing forever.
So as I mentioned in the rifle section I was thinking about picking up a Savage bolt action .22 LR. Well I think my plans may have changed. I was reading Kim du Tiot's blog and saw his preferred web pages for ammo purchases and I stumbled on this.

So I'm going to do a little looking at some local FFL's and see how things work out. Already found a site that sells a parts kit with factory springs and pins. Figure I'll buy a Blade Tech holster, seem to be one of the few people that make holsters for the gun, and another two spare mags. Maybe at some point if the deal goes through I'll see about refinishing it, but then again there's nothing wrong with a pistol that shows that it was actually used ether.
I liked the Broken Trail gun fight quite a bit. I also liked another of Mann's films, Collateral. There may not have been a lot of gun fighting in Collateral but what was there was clean and efficient.

This is my first try at posting a picture so if I dork this up, please bear with me. The supressor is a CCF Swiss Impulse II-A, the shotgun is a 14" barreled 590.
You could take woolly mamoth that thing and a heavy conical.
Sounds like a nice truck. Reminds me i need to find the dough to put my old dodge back on the road one day. Oh well, two semesters of college left and another 750 bucks of gas to get back and forth till may. Then, if the 16 yr. old is able to keep his insurance paid up to keep him on the road, the middle son doesnt want too much for Christmas (as if), and the 16 mon. old baby girl quits tugging at my heart so much, then i might be able to do the work that needs to be done to get her back on the road.
Good luck Ogre, Godspeed!
Micheal Mann is the best director when it comes to gun battles.
His films should be studied by anyone wanting to film a gun fight. That is how it is done.
HEAT and Miami Vice are the best of the best.
The battles are loud and stark and everything happens fast... like a real gun fight.
This one is gas. It's tweaked. The horsepower is enough to make NASA raise its eyebrows. Yet the economy is actually very good. This was the combination I was looking for. This truck has everything I wanted.
I'm only 3 short.
