Last week we revisited the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/2024\/06\/08\/mp-15-22\/\">S&amp;W M&amp;P 15-22 and the Gemtech INTEGRA<\/a> integrally suppressed upper. This week we discuss our NFA Grail Guns and the hypothetical question of \u2018if money were no object, what would you buy\u2019. So, what is your list of NFA firearms that you\u2019d buy if you hit the Powerball jackpot?<\/p>\n<h4>More @ TFB:<\/h4>\n<h2>SILENCER SATURDAY #333: \u2018If Money Was No Object\u2019 \u2013 NFA Grail Guns<\/h2>\n<p>I have to apologize for the generic Silencer Saturday content this week. I was called away unexpectedly and am just now headed home on the last flight of the night. RIP Uncle Bob.<\/p>\n<p>I posted earlier this week about the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/2024\/06\/12\/bt-usa-spr86-blackout\/\">B&amp;T SPR86<\/a> integrally suppressed rifle chambered in 8.6BLK and it reminded me that I needed to review and update my list of NFA \u201cGrail Guns\u201d. For those of you looking at me a bit sideways, a \u2018grail gun\u2019 is a firearm that you have wanted for a long time, lusted after, or considered selling an organ for. Basically, if a large sum of money fell into your life and you wanted to by your dream gun, which one would you choose.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly, my \u2018grail gun\u2019 list hasn\u2019t changed much from when I posted my picks a few years ago. An original <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/2018\/12\/22\/modern-welrod\/\">Welrod<\/a> integrally suppressed pistol is technically still on the list, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/2022\/02\/19\/bt-usa-station-six-pistol\/\">B&amp;T USA SIX9<\/a> has satiated that thirst for the time being.<\/p>\n<p>Another asterisk on my list is the MP5SD. Technically, I guess my TPM clone fills that role nicely (the only gun I ever paid for on layaway because I wanted it so badly). But I really want H&amp;K to release a true semiautomatic MP5SD.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, the AS Val or the VSS Vintorez made the list, but the 9\u00d739 development in America seems to have dropped off. It looks like 8.6BLK may be the better answer to the specialized Russian 9\u00d739 round and platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Please share your NFA Grail Guns in the comments section below.<\/p>\n<h2>B&amp;T USA SPR300 Pro<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1351818\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7331.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7331.png 1500w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7331-390x147.png 390w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7331-768x290.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7331-660x249.png 660w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7331-920x348.png 920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\"\/><\/p>\n<ul class=\"product-specs list-unstyled text-center\">\n<li>Manufacturer\u2019s Page:<a href=\"https:\/\/bt-usa.com\/products\/spr300-blackout-2-copy\/\">\u00a0https:\/\/bt-usa.com\/products\/spr300-blackout-2-copy\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Finish: Type III Hard Coat Anodized<\/li>\n<li>Material: Aluminum<\/li>\n<li>Caliber: .300 BLK<\/li>\n<li>Barrel Length: 9.8 in<\/li>\n<li>Twist rate: 1:8<\/li>\n<li>Length: 39.7 in<\/li>\n<li>Weight: 8.5 lbs<\/li>\n<li>Rate of Fire: Bolt-Action<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>BARRETT MODEL 82A1<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1351817\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7329.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7329.png 1500w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7329-390x97.png 390w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7329-768x190.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7329-660x164.png 660w, https:\/\/www.thefirearmblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_7329-920x228.png 920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\"\/><\/p>\n<ul class=\"spec-container \">\n<li>Manufacturer\u2019s Page:<a href=\"https:\/\/barrett.net\/products\/firearms\/model-82a1\/\">\u00a0https:\/\/barrett.net\/products\/firearms\/model-82a1\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"caliber\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Caliber:\u00a0<\/span>50 BMG<\/li>\n<li class=\"operation\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Operation:\u00a0<\/span>Recoil Operated,<br \/>Semi-Automatic<\/li>\n<li class=\"barrel\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Barrel Length:\u00a0<\/span>29\u2033 (737 mm)<\/li>\n<li class=\"twist\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Twist Rate:\u00a0<\/span>1 : 15\u2033 (381 mm)<\/li>\n<li class=\"rail\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Thread Pitch:\u00a0<\/span>7\/8 x 14<\/li>\n<li class=\"length\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Overall Length:\u00a0<\/span>57\u2033 (1448 mm)<\/li>\n<li class=\"weight\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Weight:\u00a0<\/span>32.7 lbs (14.8 kg)<\/li>\n<li class=\"mag\"><span class=\"spec-title\">Mag.
