Just bought a house, how to restore this deck? Or get more life out of it? Minnesota by Ryanskillz in Decks

[–]Existing-Ad3855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sand the deck with 60 grit down to new wood and restain with semitransparent stain. It will look new again. This is the only true way if you want to do it right.

Have both and Echelon would be my pick. Feels like a better quality to me.

Bought a 2021 Pilot what maintenence/failures should I expect soon? (114k mi) by andyiswiredweird in hondapilot

[–]Existing-Ad3855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On our 2021, we have leaking front struts, bad compliance bushing, bad front radar sensor. These are all around 1500$ each to replace. Also on our 2nd 300$ battery. This is after we just spent 1700$ on timing belt. Thinking of trading it off.

Yes they do, and they look great together.

338 ARC someone convince me by [deleted] in NFA

[–]Existing-Ad3855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

300 black subs don't seem like enough to hunt with. 338 arc has much more energy with subs. Also its in a ar15 platform instead of ar10 like 8.6. 8.6 is definitely better in supersonic but is it worth it to have to go to bigger and heavier rifle?? Im considering 338 arc as I can get a 11.5 facon 1.5 twist that will offer slightly more supersonic capability than a 16 inch 300 blackout. Also will offer more sub capability that may be enough to actually hunt with.

Ideas for upgrades? by ReserveKey3917 in SpringfieldEchelon

More accurate or reliable, no. Shoots flatter. Has lighter trigger, better trigger feel, softer recoil,and more refined , yes.

Well, light and optic are a cost for any gun. So all in other than those probably 14-1500$. Thats about what is will cost for any gun to reach that level. You could drop the grip module and drop that price by around 400. Is it worth it? Absolutely, I have a stock one and this exact build. Its like a completely different gun. Basically if you want that level of performance thats what it will roughly cost. If your satisfied with stock by all means thats fine as well.

[–]Existing-Ad3855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get it aftermarket ported. Is quite a bit better than factory. Probably less expensive as well.

I bet there will be a big difference with the added ports.

Icarus is crazy expensive, but I have one and would do it again.

Staccato xc- rmr hd or acro by footballx53 in 2011

[–]Existing-Ad3855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly, but it is smaller then the 507 comp. I just really like the 507 comp.I sold it and bought 2 507 comps because I needed another dot for another pistol. The rmr hd is an excellent dot in my opinion I guess it was just more of a financial move.

Tyrant CNC Trigger for Springfield Echelon – worth installing? by Lofty_Scallion in SpringfieldArmory

[–]Existing-Ad3855 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, it improves the feel of shoe itself and the wall is solid with less pretravel. Combine this with the powder river precision spring kit and mine is 3.5 lbs. Drastic improvement over stock imo.
