I had my heart set on an SRPE51, but that seems like unobtainium these days, and I swear the SNXS79J1 was barely over $100 a few years ago. Is this still a great first nice watch at this price, or have others from other manufacturers supplanted it as the defacto no-brainer if you like that style?
Thanks for the suggestions!
11.5" Sionics silencer dedicated upper with a direct thread Polonium K. SBR'd KP-15 lower. KAK down vent bcg. Sprinco blue with an H2 buffer. Just added a magpul SVG. Shoots amazing as a lefty.
The ice blue Seiko Presage Cocktail Time with a dark brown leather band is my dream watch, aesthetically. But I don't think I want an automatic, and the Citizen Eco Drive I tried on today was noticeably thinner, and it seems more practical. Any suggestions for something with this kind of styling but under $200? Any Orient model come to mind? AI renderings are starting to look damn good, and I'm obsessed with the light blue mock-up.
Missed Two Stamp Tuesday, but I'm excited to get out next week and try out the HAVIC. This is my first lower backpressure and first Ti 5.56 suppressor. Impeccable machining, and this rifle feels perfectly balanced now.
I might need a cheek riser for the DT stock and a different bipod, but we'll see how it goes. This used to be a PnW with keymo and DD furniture rocking either a Polo K or Nomad-L, and I can't tell you how awesome this feels with a trimmer front end and better ergos. Also swapped from a 510C/HM3X to this lpvo, and it's been solid at distance. Currently has a Sprinco Red spring and Griffin S.O.B. buffer. Fingers crossed it's still super soft. Excited to get it into its final form after a decade of being not quite right.
I just saw a video from Guncon that showed a 5" Eclipse model with a black threaded barrel and an SRO. This is exactly the setup I've been wanting!
Thank you, Kimber!
I've been saving up for a 5" non comp model but really have been enjoying suppressed shooting with my current collection of firearms. Has anyone heard rumors of a threaded barrel model in the works? Seems like an obvious next release to me.
I'm saving up for a non-comp 5" model with the original MJD grip, which as far as I can tell narrows it down to the Stainless Target and Eclipse 5" (Kimber, please make the Royal in a 5"!). I'd like the TAG Precision plate and fixed thumb safeties, but I'm not sure how to make sure I get one with those changes. Is there a SN cutoff, or are the changes exclusive to the Pro and Comp models?
I have a bottle of once-used Breakthrough Suppressor Cleaner and have since learned that used DMSO solutions are not safe with nitrile or latex gloves. Safety sites seem to point to butyl rubber gloves at $30 a pair or neoprene gloves. As far as I can tell, chloroprene is neoprene. Am I safe to handle used DMSO with these gloves?
