shockwave
In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance. When a wave moves faster than the local speed of sound in a fluid it is a shock wave. Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy, and can propagate through a medium; however it is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous change in pressure, temperature and density of the medium. In supersonic flows, expansion is achieved through an expansion fan also known as a Prandtl-Meyer expansion fan.
Unlike solitons (another kind of nonlinear wave), the energy of a shock wave dissipates relatively quickly with distance. Also, the accompanying expansion wave approaches and eventually merges with the shock wave, partially cancelling it out. Thus the sonic boom associated with the passage of a supersonic aircraft is the sound wave resulting from the degradation and merging of the shock wave and the expansion wave produced by the aircraft.
When a shock wave passes through matter, energy is preserved but entropy increases. This change in the matter's properties manifests itself as a decrease in the energy which can be extracted as work, and as a drag force on supersonic objects; shock waves are strongly irreversible processes.
Is it better to buy the KAK dimpled buffer tube or does the shockwave brace work well with a milspec buffer tube? I haven't seem to find one with the KAK buffer with a heavier 9mm buffer but I have found milspec tubes with heavier buffers.
Now that the OSP has requested that these be classified as a "pump pistol" when transferring, does that make them a pistol under OR law and therefore legal to carry concealed?
Any other states where this may apply?
I know federal law says it isn't a pistol or a shotgun or a rifle - it is...
These got a lot more interesting when OPS classified them as pump pistols.
New in Box, ready for fun! The six shot Mossberg 12 gauge spends 14" of its 26.37" overall length on the barrel. Much more comfortable to shoot over the traditional pistol grip this black matte beast has several...
Updated with letter from the state.
Welp it looks like the OSP is delaying everyone trying to purchase a Mossy 590 Shockwave and the Remington Tac 14.
I knew it was only a matter of time.
I called OSP and confirmed it tonight.
Remington has begun producing their version of the "Shockwave" firearm known as the Tac-14. If you like the Shockwave, you will probably like the Remington product even more.
If you go to GunBlast.com you can watch a video that will illustrate how well it works.
I know that I will eventually...
I have wondered about this. Theoretically, could I replace the bird's head grip with a bird's head grip of the same dimensions. (roughly, possibly thinner side to side as I have small hands) I was also thinking that black stained AAAA flame maple might look pretty slick and might get some...
Many of you have seen the Mossberg 590 Shockwave and various scabbards that can be had for it. Washington State doesn't blanketly forbid open carry, and allows concealed carry with a permit, but only for pistols. WA also has its own definitions of firearm types, which are different from the...
Looking for one. I don't need a tube. Convo if you have one laying around. If I don't get any responses in the next couple of days I'll grab one online. Thanks!
. Tube is the KAK tube specific for the shockwave blade.
Tube has about a quarter of one thread "stripped" castle nut still slide right ove and dosent bimd at all. The "stripped" part does not effect function at all, and is far enough back that it is on the part of the tube that dosent...
I've got a like new Draco AK 10" pistol. This is Romanian mil spec. I've got a shockwave blade brace.
