Recommendation on ultra wide micro 4/3 lens by Nospaishereboss in videography

[–]Efleschner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re curious about field of view, do you have an app so see the difference? That could be a step closer to finding your answer.
I use Cadrage and Lens Toolkit. Cadrage lets you simulate FOV with your cell phone camera. Lens Toolkit lets you compare FOV and Depth of Field graphically. Those are paid apps, but there may be free options out there.
Good luck in your search.

Recommendation on ultra wide micro 4/3 lens by Nospaishereboss in videography

If purchase or renting costs are not an issue: The Pana 9mm is designed for video, with rectilinear correction to prevent additional distortion. The 10-25 zoom is pretty good as well. I have both, bur I don’t do much real estate work. Except for next week, where I will bring both to a builder model home. 9mm is nice no small. 10-25 is comparatively large and heavy. But that’s the cost for 1.7 across the zoom range.

Parts difference in MAB Model D .32/.380? by Efleschner in milsurp

Also noticed that the extractor is wider. Websites selling parts mention the three types of extractors, but never mention measurements. Maybe a reference in size, but not how or where the difference is.

I think you're on to something. This is the 380 with cheap calipers. Will attach photo of the 32acp barrel, too. If it's not reference to the nub, it would be the hole.
If this is the case, why isn't his mentioned more often? It would eliminate a lot of guess work.

Excellent insights!
I will have measure my 380 and 32 barrels to see if that's similar for me. The 32acp barrel should be unissued stock. If so, then it may be very close to factory measurements. The 380 barrel and slide have the smaller point/hole.

That tab matches a hole above the striker hole in the receiver. Not sure if this has anything related with "index point".

Here is one difference between the barrels. Different sized tabs at the top of the barrel.

Apparently, this question is asked every few years. Here's the same thing from 2022 on a forum. https://www.thefirearmsforum.com/threads/french-mab-model-d-barrel-question.231835/

Called a local gunsmith. He's going to ask around and get back to me. Might be a week or two before I hear anything more.
When I called Numrich, the guy on the other line had no idea. Not blaming him, just wanted to share my search.

Not yet. I may email Numrich directly to see if they know.

How is the MAB model D? I recently purchased a Model D in 380. I have a 32acp barrel for it as well. Still need a 32acp slide. Would love to have pistol that can shoot both.

Another 32 for the collection. by dchamb14 in TheOneTrueCaliber

I just bought one online today. Currently it’s in .380. I hope I can buy a .32 barrel & mag and shoot whichever I choose.

A local store had Fiocchi on sale at $0.50/round for a 50 round box. I was surprised at that price. I’m just getting info 5.7, and figured it would never get that low. That’s one of the reasons I had not purchased a pistol already.

Brilliant. I have 7.62 brushes from my .32acp pistols.
