The Minuteman Titan Rocket Stove has a shell around the body of the stove that is filled with ceramic fiber insulation. This ensures that a large portion of the heat produced by the stove goes up the chimney to cook whatever is on the grate instead of being randomly dissipated in all directions. Once the stove is hot, this feature greatly accelerates its cooking speed in comparison with a similar uninsulated stove. With a weight of 35 pounds, the Titan is best suited for use at a fixed location or in conjunction with wheeled transport. The Titan is fairly expensive.…

(Continued from Part 1. This concludes the article.) Kaw Mach 3 Linear Compensator Conversion The suppressor-making cognoscenti tell me that the Kaw Valley Precision Mach 3 Linear Compensator is a great starting point for a .22 to 9mm-size suppressor home build.

They are a modular design, meaning that sections can be assembled incrementally, to whatever length you’d like. (Kaw also makes 2″ and 3″ extensions, and sells them separately.) It was probably just a coincidence, but the inside diameter of a Kaw…
