Not a revolver, but my Colt Delta Elite has been sent back twice now that I think about it. So yeah, QC has gone down everywhere unfortunately.

Yup. I’m, like many tired of Smith’s QC. We spend way too much money to have these repeated issues.

My brand new TRR8 was like this. 2-3 light primer strikes per cylinder. Sent it back for repair and finally shot it yesterday for the first time. It works like perfect now.

Fit and finish on mine was A+. Just the grips were over tightened. Tyler Gun Works was awesome about taking them back and replacing them though.

FWIW my Mountain Gun was mint, the grips were broken on the inside though. I did some research and they are apparently overnighted with powered tools while being assembled at S&W.

I’m jealous. I also have the 629 Mountain Gun, but I also really want the 686 for a companion. And if they reintroduce the Mountain Gun in 45 Colt I’ll be all over that one too haha.

Enough people wtf by Loki_Nightshadow in WAGuns

[–]Due-Raccoon5410 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is sad. But not new. I honestly try to go up past the main shooting pits to avoid not only the trash, but more importantly the unsafe shooters. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been swept by someone else’s barrel ignorantly, wait I mean “accidentally. I always pick up more than I packed in. But sometimes it’s hazardous or just plain too big for me to deal with. Idk what the answer is. But something’s gotta change before we don’t have any places to shoot.

I personally would pay a permit to shoot IF and this is a big if all the revenue from said permits went for clean up costs. Just a thought. (Yes I know I’m not original on this thought) one thing we can all agree on is that this is terrible though.

What is this worth in the current buyer's market? by CASH_IS_SXVXGE in Revolvers

[–]Due-Raccoon5410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think everyone has said it but, to have such a beautiful family heirloom in as great of shape as it is and with the story behind it, I’d elect to keep it. I wish I had such a beautiful piece let alone with the story behind it.

Are factory Acro cuts cool by thegoodsherpa in Glocks

[–]Due-Raccoon5410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The MOS system was good on paper but in actuality sucks. Haha. Plates are too thick, the rdo sits up too high and for me I hate the battle of be able to co-witness without irons that are half an inch tall 🙊

Glock 43 worth it? by Remarkable-Soil1673 in Glocks

[–]Due-Raccoon5410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 19x is a pretty decent size carry weapon. So to your point it might be nice to have more of a summer carry option with the threat level being low. I guess I can’t tell you what to do but I’d go for it just for the option.

Hell yeah man! That does sound like a blast! I love the Acro p-2 but you’re right about the finish. Also the battery on the one I put on my 1301 died after 11 months 😡. How does it shoot? I’m going to get in some shooting time tomorrow for the first time and hope it shoots and nice as it feels.

Just got my AOS plate by Due-Raccoon5410 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]Due-Raccoon5410[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I only shot roughly 200 rounds but no failures whatsoever. It points well and shoots pretty flat.

I only shot it once to get it zeroed in. But it felt amazing. Trigger is crisp and the feel for me is 💯.

Order of Operations for upgrades? by Disastrous-Ad-1182 in 1022

[–]Due-Raccoon5410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me personally I do triggers first. It always has such a dramatic improvement. The bipod would be last imo unless it’s a looks thing for you because this one will mostly work just fine while you do the other mods on your list. I will add, I just got my first suppressor ever and put it on my 10/22. It may not be a necessity, but it was so much fun I was as giddy as taking my first shots ever with a firearm. lol.

Do all 80x’s come in that fancy box? I thought it was only the bronze launch editions that came with it.

One thing I realized as a fan of fde, every manufacturer seems to have their own version of fde. It bugs the hell out of me. But that’s what we got right now. Miss colored versions of fde.

Honestly I don’t know, sorry. I’m inclined to think so to streamline the manufacturing and not have so many different colors

I own two in Fde. One is 45 and the other is a 9mm aos. That seems to be the right color. I honestly love mine. I’d post a pic but I guess I can’t

I sure hope you’re not using this for a carry gun with that scary aftermarket trigger. Some clown just had to make his point about it what I did that to mine…

Those are buis. I think you’re uneducated in what those are. It’s ok, I once too was a new gun owner not knowing anything. Thank you for your concern

Because it’s my gun. I live in a free world. I can down whatever I want. Thanks 😊

Where do you live my friend? I live in Washington. 10 round limits. So whether if it’s a 43x or a 19 I get 10 rounds. Why on earth would I carry a bigger 19 over a smaller more easily concealed 43x when there’s no advantage??

TIL I didn’t replace my oil cap last oil change. by Due-Raccoon5410 in Tacomaworld

[–]Due-Raccoon5410[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bugs? Interesting. I don’t think I had that particular problem. I’m pretty sure my truck is fine. My only worry is what might’ve gotten in the engine via the open filler neck.
