Wouldn't it be amazing if Billie engineered some kind of P3 thread adapter for the Sophia and/or Cage tank?
Yes it would!
So, is there any hope of a Ti Radius? It seems like it may be a more difficult form factor to make out of titanium than the 2.5/3 tube mods. I ask because after getting one of the 2.5 Ti closeouts (should have gotten 2) I sold my Radius, weight being one of the two reasons (the other being not needing 40w at the moment). It just felt like such a brick after handling the Ti.
It will go a lot higher, but I have it tuned to just under the speed of sound. For two reasons.
First, the suppressor would be useless otherwise, and second, for longer ranges we have learned that if shot at supper sonic, the bullet must remain supersonic all they way to the target, otherwise, as it drops below supersonic, in what we call the trans sonic region, it will destabilize the projectile, and induce accuracy destroying wobble.
It is the same in all long range bullets. Regardless of what type of firearm it is being fired from.
She will print between 3/8" to 3/4" at 100 meters all day long!
When suppressed, the impact of the projectile is Much Louder than the muzzle report. And as they say, "Silence is Golden".

Many assume that Ti is an ultra lite material. But it isn't. I is however, ultra-strong for its weight.
Ti is 1 half the weight of SS. And Alu. is one half the weight of Ti. or In other words, Alu. is 1 fourth the weight of ...SS!
If Alu. is used, in a high grade, such as 7075 Alu, and given a T-6 heat-treat, it becomes much harder on the surface than the Ti. and very very resistant to abrasion and scratches. When Hard anodized, in Mil. Spec III, it will be both lighter, and easier to get the colors some here want.
This is the material used for high quality Alu. shafts made for top archery competition for instance. Also, many here will recognize it as the bodies of SureFire Flashlights. They last forever!
It just doesn't sound as Exotix.
The Lions share of weight in our mods comes from the batteries and the tanks. There is not much weight in the ss in the radius at all!

I'd love to have a P3 Sophia.
My favorite part of the long range sessions I used to participate in was pulling and scoring the targets in the pit. Hearing the snap of the canvas just a few feet overhead and then the muzzle blast after gave me a giddy feelingIt will go a lot higher, but I have it tuned to just under the speed of sound.

Disturbed covers Simon & Garfunkel's "The Sound Of Silence"
I'm going to necro this post (just got back from an amazing week in London and pretty much ignored the Internet the entire time I was there), as I'm a HUGE fan of Disturbed. Did I miss anything new in Provariland?
