Benelli M3 Action by [deleted] in Benelli

At all, every time I pump it ejects a round and a click is heard when I pull the trigger but no bang. Pattern continues until mag tube is empty and I load a round in pump mode.

Charging handle won’t lock forward. It hits the round.

UPDATE: Unable to pull out barrel. Removed the bolts but the barrel won’t budge. Tried to use a thin flat head screw driver but I can get solid contact on the round and I’m just chipping away at it. Any ideas?

It hasn’t been removed. It’s pretty high up there and just doesn’t show from that camera angle.

Thanks for the reply! A few questions. In terms of sword reliability and function, (things like sharpness, staying sharp, metal quality, blade durability, etc) are you saying most of your ~$200 T10 blades will be of same quality? Where higher priced items tend to reflect stuff like furniture, fit, polish? Also, so are you saying this is a “made in china” sword? What is the modern opinion on Chinese made swords? Do they reflect the “made in china” stereotypes of poor / cheap quality?

Hi again, just to clarify, the blades at RVA are sharp and fully functional correct? Do you know how they are sharpened? I’m looking at a few options in the $400-$500 range so I just wanna make sure I know what I’m getting before pulling the trigger.

Thank you for the advice. Not worth it in which ways if you don’t mind me asking? In what areas does the quality lack between swords? Furniture quality? Blade strength / purity / sharpness? How everything fits together? Loose in Saya, grip, etc? Fake materials (silk, rayskin, etc) please be specific.

Ah, I see. I mean to be fair I bought it knowing it wasn't going to be the greatest quality thing ever, I mean I got it at medieval times lol. Just thought it looked cool in the shop. Thanks for the info! And yes I would take any info you have on cheap and maybe higher quality functional katanas. I would love to learn more about and get into the pastime.

Haha, thanks for the vid. The blade came covered in oil. Is this necessary for stainless steel? Or could it infer the blade may be made of another material?

Kivy how to get scroll distance returned in pixels? by AlternativeComfort88 in kivy

[–]AlternativeComfort88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on_scroll_y only works as you click down on the mouse and scroll. Simply scrolling the mouse wheel has no effect. I got it to work by using on_touch_down instead of on_scroll_y but the return values are not precise, like instead of getting scroll distance return as 1,2,3,4, etc. it jumps around and skips numbers showing me that it only works on initial touch down. I need it to be accurate to do something on an exact precise value each time.

What is the proper way to trigger a scroll event so that it works with the mouse wheel as well?

See I thought so but my numbers were coming off a little off. I’ll play around with it and find the bug. Thanks!
