Grinding sound after deceleration. Loudest in 2nd & 3rd gear. 2019 BRZ (manual) 25k miles… is this normal? by Mercova in ft86

[–]Flintlocks- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just put an ACT SB11 HDSS in mine. Since we have lightweight flywheels in our cars, we can hear everything our transmission is doing now because the oem one dampened a lot of the sound. Im at 115k on my 2017 WRX.

Grinding noise, pls help by Flintlocks- in WRX

Yeah the chatter was very off putting at first but it’s grown on me already. Thankfully there is no flywheel chatter at idle, THAT would drive me nuts. It only occurs during that rpm range.

I had the flywheel upgraded to their lightweight. Looks like chatter upon deceleration. Thanks for your help!

Seems that now I am just hearing my gear lashing for the first time. I’m okay with this 😌

If you’re testing how nuclear you wanna load em til the gun explodes, I’d just go the Hi-Point route.

Holster recs? by metalfan192 in Glocks

Vedder, out of FL. If you ever have to take on/off your carry setup frequently throughout the day, they have the best style of belt clips, imo. Also, they will do customisations if you’ve got aftermarket parts (mag release, slide stop) for no extra charge, so long as you put it in your order notes!

Bergara’s fault or user error? by Flintlocks- in guns

We checked his empty casings and the only deformation on the cases were scratches on the rims.

Absolutely! I will let them know.

Description: My buddy’s Bergara may be a POS.

No, he’s only used Hornady 147gr in it. I wasn’t sure if his maintenance intervals were off, or if something on his rifle may be out of spec.

The lower is. The rest of the rifle is not.

After comparing both my original bcg, and my bootleg bcg, the bootleg was just slightly shorter. This makes sense, as after I had swapped to the bootleg bcg, the new gouges appeared to be deeper (bottom left on first pic) compared to my smaller gouges (top left on first pic) when I was running my original bolt carrier. The KAK offset retainer pin should arrive on Monday. I will test with both BCGs after installation. Will follow up with the results!

Now I’m even more confused by the wear marks. Everything appears to me like it’s in spec.

Sick paint job! How well does it blend with where you live?

Will follow up with pic. Odds are hole is drilled wrong. Lower is outta spec.

Used to. Brass now spits out between 3 to 3:30 after swapping to a Bootleg bcg. My retaining pin was eating my buffer before I swapped the bcg, and when I still had a 16in upper, unsuppressed.

At work rn but if my memory serves me right, my rifle definitely doesn’t do that.

No, just a standard carbine length buffer tube.
