Where were you when the blemula sale started?
Took about 45 minutes of constant reloading pages and signing in but I got a DDC tabbed upper/handguard and a ssa-x trigger!
Glad I looked down at my phone. Usually only get 1 bar of signal at the range. Walked around and found a spot that had 2 lol
Hammy3d prints made a post on gundeals for a Memorial Day sale. They had magwells available for Glock and B&T mags but none listed for the 320 mags. Asked in the post if he knew if the Glock magwell would fit and he told me I could just send my lower to him and he would design one to fit!
Took me a couple weeks to get it to him but he received it and had it back on its way with the new magwell in under 2 weeks! Awesome customer service and great products! I run several of his scope and light caps on other guns. Go check him out!
Got my G$ SPR barrel back from D Willy! Excellent work and a quick turnaround of only 2-1/2 weeks!
Plan on getting a quad rail for the SPR and maybe having the URX mod done to it for my schmedium hands. Will run some drills and play on the V-TAC board at the range before I decide for sure
Also planning to upgrade scope when funds allow. Been prioritizing ammo before more price increases
Specwar is amazing! Jack of all trades! Recently switched over from a Delta Stryker 1-6 to the Romeo 4t and a Vortex 3x magnifier. Plan on trying the G45
Just got my warranty replacement bolt back from JP. Wondering if I should continue using it in my 16” SS Proof or try the Rexus
I know Proof guarantees headspace with the JP bolt, but the Rexus looks noticeably thicker
JP warranty was super easy. Sent them an email, sent my broken bolt into them and they shipped me a new one a week later
How’s the Rexus warranty?
Got a k31 coming, but I’m not sure if I should start off loading or just buy some PPU ammo to start off and then load for it after
It looks like I can get loaded ppu ammo for not much more than virgin ppu brass
From the searches Iv done it looks like the k31 is pretty picky on bullet selection. What has everyone used for plinking ammo? Range I goto has steel out to 300 yards
To be clear I do plan on loading for this rifle. Just not sure if I should start off loading for it, or buy ammo and then load the once fired brass
Thanks!
Picked out a carbine from RTI. Iv heard some not great things about them so went through each of their individual listings and picked out several before deciding on one. I think I got a good one!
Been half-ass looking for one for the last year or two and finally had some extra cash to grab one. 44’ underwood. Good wood except the little filed section on left side. Round bolt and barrel listed at 2.0 with bright chamber and rifling
Completely dissembled it Monday for cleaning an lube. Loaded up some Berrys 110gr RN on top of H110 and shot Tuesday. Had 2 or 3 failure to feeds where the cartridge got stuck going up the feed ramp. Was able to guide the bullet toward the chamber and it chambered fine. Highest velocity was 1950fps with 14.4gr. Might try 15.0 just to see if it will get closer to 2k fps but for a plinking load I think 14.5gr is perfectly fine
Got the sling and mag pouch from At The Front. Pretty nice for the price. Would like to find a bayonet for it as well. What would it have been issued with in 1 of 44’? Found conflicting info on google
Also need to get some more mags. The one it came with would push the floorplate halfway off after shooting a mag, possibly contributing to my FTF. Would love to get some of the surplus still-in wax paper mags just to have but want some cheap shooters too
Anything else I should consider getting for it?
Last pic is with my CMP Garand I got last year. Springfield receiver with a new stock and barrel. Have around 500 rounds through it already!
Was finally able to run some mk262 loads thru my SPR barrel this week. Very happy with the results! Probably my best shooting gas gun!
Blem 77 SMK’s @2.245”
2x fired starline. Shoulder Bumped .003” from criterion core chamber
8208xbr powder. Small increments up because I didn’t want to go over pressure
All were 10 round groups except the highest charge in case I got pressure signs
Haven’t completely committed, but will probably send barrel off for LMT conversion and get the long quad rail for a “modern mk12” build
Plan to SBR. Was hoping to get a B&T pull-out stock but with the current state of affairs that might be a while. What are my other options?
Took the Specwar and my new to me 44’ Underwood out on a fantastic spring day at the range!
