silencer
In genetics, a silencer is a DNA sequence capable of binding transcription regulation factors, called repressors. DNA contains genes and provides the template to produce messenger RNA (mRNA). That mRNA is then translated into proteins. When a repressor protein binds to the silencer region of DNA, RNA polymerase is prevented from transcribing the DNA sequence into RNA. With transcription blocked, the translation of RNA into proteins is impossible. Thus, silencers prevent genes from being expressed as proteins.RNA polymerase, a DNA-dependent enzyme, transcribes the DNA sequences, called nucleotides, in the 3' to 5' direction while the complementary RNA is synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction. RNA is similar to DNA, except that RNA contains uracil, instead of thymine, which forms a base pair with adenine. An important region for the activity of gene repression and expression found in RNA is the 3' untranslated region. This is a region on the 3' terminus of RNA that will not be translated to protein but includes many regulatory regions.
Not much is yet known about silencers but scientists continue to study in hopes to classify more types, locations in the genome, and diseases associated with silencers.
Picked this DeadAir Odessa 9 up for a demo can. I like the concept. Modular, lightweight and clears the sights no shenanigans . Took forever to get this thing. Like 9 days.
My wife got me these for Christmas and I have only used them twice. The right earbud won’t hold a charge and I can’t figure out why. It only lasts about 5 minutes. I don’t have time to look into warranty or try to fix it. Just would like to get some of my money back. They sell for $245 on...
This is brand new, has the extra extension, overall this is 10 plus inches. for 25/.30 caliber, 7.62 printed on the end. it will work on a .22 caliber just has a larger whole. very well made inside and out. I just didn’t like the size for the gun I bought it for, has 1/2x20 thread adaptor and...
If you made a suppressor purchase from Silencer Shop or a dealer using their kiosk, they have all the data required for your form one electronic application except for the SBR data. I just completed one and it needed a new photo, as mine was over a year old and the SBR data was pretty...
Pulled these two off my radian uppers and switched to silencer co. Never been fired but they do have some damage from taking them off on the outside. Threads are perfect. $100 for both. Meet in Hillsboro.
I have a slightly older silencer that I bought for a specific build. That guild did not happen so now I am trying to it for general purpose.
It is a .22 can with a steel tube and aluminum mono core baffle that unscrews from the front.
I tried to use it with my dedicated .22 AR CMMG upper...
Willing to ship if needed.
Silencer Dedicated 11.5" 5.56 Upper
(will not cycle unsuppressed - recommended buffer / spring is H3 and Sprinco Blue): everything was assembled to mfg spec using the correct tools, aeroshell grease and rocksett - torque for flash hider and barrel nut was applied at...
My brother got his silencer after a year.
I am in Washington. I just found a group of guys to go shooting with. I am interested in getting a suppressor, now that i will hopefully be shooting more. I just googled a little and any advice suggestions would be nice.
I am looking at a multi...
This was more work than it looks like it should be. The silencer that is. I had an existing modular 30 cal silencer that is actually one of my better performing cans. Set up like a SIG or Q can with half cut baffles. Anyway I had to make a ASR thread spec adapter and cut two of the baffles to...
I have a couple of silencers I started Form 4s for recently, and I don't expect them to be approved before the end of the year. If Measure 114 passes do you think it could affect my ability to pick them up in 2023 after the ATF finishes their BS?
I've read the Measure text and didn't see any...
New to silencers, the ones I just purchased are on order so not even in jail yet, and looking into covers to prevent accidental burns. I understand they also help with mirage as the silencer heats up. I'm curious about what you are using, what's great about it and what sucks (cuz nothing is...
Surefire BCG that’s optimized for suppressor use. Integrated weights in the rear require the surefire buffer and spring kit which is pictured as well. I had it sent off to surefire to have the gas key upgraded to be compatible with the radian charging handle. This thing is awesome. Black nitride...
I am looking to build my dream gun. I have compiled a list below of things that I am going to add. One of my biggest concerns is I want to have a folding stock, however I have no idea how to do that. Any insight on parts that anyone has to recommend would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
