So years back some dude told me glocks are great for hitmen because the polygonal rifling in the barrel leaves grooves on the bullet that police can't effectively trace to a single firearm, as oppose to the sharp corners of traditions rifling. Is this effect still present in the new marksman's barrel on the new glocks or was it only true up until gen4?
On the m109 it's a travel lock for holding the heavy barrel in place to take the load of the hydraulic systems when not in combat. On the strv 103 the barrel is fixed and the whole tank body tilts for aiming and so it's just a forward grip for stability.
So I have this Ruger No1. I have started reloading my own ammo and I am trying different loads to see what works. Now, the front sling mount is directly on the barrel(like pic). If I mounted a bipod here would it fuck around with shot placements or just shift the point of impact slightly? I don't use bipods for hunting but I would like to get as accurate test groups as possible.
Didn't he get to keep it? I think he lived as a park guide or hunter to old age.
