Gen 1 stock

I know that there is a snowballs chance in hell that someone would have a gen 1 (not gen 2) stock for sale. But I wont know if I dont ask. Anyone have one that they are not using or wouldnt mind selling?

Handgaurd

Ive seen a few guys asking about handgaurds that will work with a tucked suppressor. Personally, I dont like the look of the strike industires, or other airsoft looking handgaurds. I like simple and functional.

A few years ago while browsing through gafs I was lucky and found this one from a 22lr rifle vector. These are available by them self from kriss but you have to email them about it. I use a obsidian 45 (currently on another gun) on my vector and it has plenty of room around it for mounting M-lok accessories. The most narrow dimention is from the side walls at about 1.71 inches. Im wanting to upgrade to a mojave 45 because Ill still be able to have a rail on the top for a light/laser.

Some other posatives are the amount of room you have to grab onto to avoid hitting the mag release or bolt catch. You can mount a light/laser out of your view of aim, as well as being able to use the button on the unit without a tape switch. To me holding onto the handgaurd and not the front of the vector is more comfortable and closer to holding something like an AR.

Anyways, hope this is helpful to someone.

HK Parts selling the wrong magazines

If anyone was thinking about buying the "KCI" 26 rounds mags from HK Parts, just dont. They are not KCI mags they are some no brand rip off brands. When I talked to a CS rep he said that the 2 I ordered wer in fact KCI mags because of the knurled sides. I told him thats not true as I already have genuine 26 round KCI mags and they look just like a oem glock mag. I still have to see if I can get a frefund, but at this point it doesnt sound like they have KCI mags at all.

The pictures in this post are screen shots of what is on HK Parts website, and what is on KCI's, MagShack's, and GunMagWharehouse's websites. Honestly this is partially my fault because I didnt notice the knurled sides in HK Parts pictures. But they should also not be falsely advertising KCI mags for a reputable company and should be able to admit that the listing is wrong.

Also, the mags I received arived in those cheap plastic covers that are open on one end, and KCI mags come in a sealed bag like in the last photo.

2012 cbr1000rr fork seals.

Has anyone replaced the seals on a 2012-2016 cbr1000rr? Mine are leaking and the shops are quoting me about $750 to do the job. Is it a hard job to do right? Do the bushings usually need to be replaced at 50k miles? All of my riding has been on the street.

Paw shop galil

So I went to a local pawn shop today and noticed that they had a gen 1 galil. I thought it was a 223 but turned out to be a 7.62 with a 13" barrel. Oddly enough thats the one Ive been wanting to get. But the kicker is the price was $2900. I asked the guy what was the reason for the extra grand and he said he was not sure. After looking at it and asking if it was used the guy said yes, but that it probably only had a few rounds through it. It was very new looking. Niw here in Florida guns and most gun related items are tax free untill the end of the year. I know pawn shops are not known for striking a deal, but it is a used gun with $1000 over msrp tag.

You guys thjnk that I might be able to talk them down to $1500? I mean yea its brobably as close to new as it gets, but used is used. And used guns dont sell for msrp 90% of rhe time.

Edit, 7.62x39 not 308

Looking for a new cpu.

My old 5600k is not happy with the last year of updates from the game and is severly limiting the performance of the game.

I know war thunder is not a AAA game but I also am not sure of how cpu dependant it is. I do not want to use ray tracing, I am just wanting to have high settings at 1440 as I have a newish gpu.

So how dependant is war thunder on the cou vs the gpu? Will a 9900k be fine (for now...) with a rx 6700?

Thinking about buying Monster Fairings.

So my 2012 cbr1000rr needs new fairings. Ive seen the reviews for the monster branded fairings and they seem to be mostly good. But like with any other comapany there are some horror stories.

Have any of you used monster fairings? Did you like them? How was the fit and quality of the paint?

They also offer UV protection as an add on. Is the UV protection worth it?

POE powered from usb C

I have a super niche need for a poe devise that is powered from usb C, or even B. Basically where I would like to put the poe device there is no AC 120 outlet. But I do hace a 12v DC source that I can tap into. But I have not been able to find something like this, only poe adapters/splitters that provide power to a usb C end.

2014 starcraft ar-one

Hello all. I have a 2014 ar-one 14rb trailer and need some info on the operation of the water heater. It is a 3 gal propane, and I belive electric water heater.

Will the water heater turn on when it detects that the hot water is being used, or do I need to ignite the flame before using the hot water?

I know it runs on propane, but do I need to turn the valve off when I am not using any hot water?

B&T an now Aero...

With all of the shit that is going down with B&T vs B&T u.s.a. we have Areo being sued for a lot of owed money in just one civil lawsuit. People are already questioning how long B&T u.s.a. suppressors and other products will be warranty-able, but what about Areo? My prediction is the few products that are actually in stock and shipping will be delivered. But within the next year or so they, and any sister companies, will be shut down and dissolved. I dont think there is a company out there that is willing to take on their massive amount of debt in the current market. Witch means all of their suppressors will be paper weights once their life cycle is up, or after a baffle strike, or just any other damage that will render the suppressor useless.

This is just my thoughts, wondering what you guys think. I really would love for another company to pick up Areo and BA, because I do think their core products are really good for the money. I just dont think it will happen.

ALG qms vs act

Looking for a mil spec trigger that has a pull weight of 3.5-4.5 pounds, is smooth, and does not cost more than $150. It seems that the alg triggers seem to be the most used in this senario, so which one is better? I basically looking for the smothest of the two, and with jp enterprises enhanced trigger springs.

New Trigger Kicker

So with the new Hoffman repeat reset trigger, aka the trigger kicker, it seems to be the simplest way to have fun with an AR, and the cheapest.

It seems like the only 2 factors as of now that have to be know for it to work is the thickness of the device, and what metal to use. So Im asking those that have a milspec trigger, what is the thickness of the disconnector, and what material do you think the kicker should be? Normal carbon steel, hardened steel, or stainless steel?

Also the file is sailing the sea already so Im hoping more videos get put out.

Raid

So there are some amazing deals on raids right now, but I know that there are some issues with the light patterns. As far as I know there have not been any anouncements from holosun about new heads. If I purchase a light or two now, will holosun replace the heads if there is an issue with the light pattern?

Aluminum ST50

Has anyone put out a video reviewing the aluminum st50 kit? I was hoping that stuff and things or someone else would eventually make an aluminum kit as the poly st50 seems to have a lot of fitment issues. But now that stuff and things came out with their aluminum kit Im wondering if they fixed those issues.
