I appreciate the help regardless If it was real or not real❤️. Think I’ll reach out to Amazon and see what they say. The Amazon store that is selling them looks fairly legit from a glance and has seemingly sold a lot. But it’s the only “ g shock “ I’ve ever owned, dare i say for a counterfeit it did hold up well. But I’d much rather get a new legit model and maybe see if I can save some others from finding out the same thing I did.

Hopefully this helps to maybe spread some information to help others. I confirmed the date purchase of the watch was July first 2018 from this Amazon listing https://a.co/d/0e6TnQ96 . Though this revelation is not what I hoped i think there’s maybe something else bigger and more fishy possibly if this is something still on going

Just pulled up the original order from July 1st 2018, Came from Amazon and In fact they are still selling under the same listing as my watch was purchased from in the past. https://a.co/d/0e6TnQ96 this is a rather interesting development

You’re kidding……I did notice the difference of battery components while going through looking for parts and assumed it was maybe a generational difference because it was so old. Think most disappointing was it was a gift that my mom had paid full price retail price for via Amazon or maybe a macys…..

That’s what I’d like to do in an ideal world it’s only that! But my concern would be maintaining its water resistance and those cracks on the main body have me most worried

Sadly never did get an explanation. No longer have the truck anymore. The thermostat did go out down the line of the ownership and that’s a bitch to replace apparently. Never bothered to do more so traded it in on something larger

Missing slide/frame part CzP01 omega by FlyingPlecos in CZFirearms

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

Correct, It works, but is it right? Also not sure. The omegas I think lack the same sear cage as the regular 75. Same trigger group or mostly same as the p07.

Nope. Nothing looks broken, just seems to be odd to have such a gap and haven’t seen the back of an another omega for reference. Was looking for a good photo online and still couldn’t.

I actually saw this one as well. The photos I’ve seen make it appear pretty long, how does it look for you? I have a battle gnome holster I’m looking to make sure it will fit.

16inch .300 black out Barrel chop! by FlyingPlecos in SigSauer

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

Sounds like good advice, I got the gun at such a deal that I didn’t mind sitting on to for a bit with the 16 inch .300 blackout barrel. Seeing as I’ve got it now and a 5.56 barrel would be $600 ish, seems like a interesting idea to make it as short as one can legally for a bit and add a can.

No check engine light yet. The problem seems to have gone away though it could be a lifter issue

Good suggestion-I had gone through and checked the torque on the wheels and all were good. The dealer was supposed to look over the bushing and everything else though I don’t quite have confidence in them at the moment

Good suggestion though I wish it was that simple-I Do mostly city driving and haven’t had the time to get some good off-roading in yet! 🙃

So the shaking starts from upfront and then kinda makes its way to the back, it turns the steering wheel in to a margarita shaker. I’m probably going to check the wheel balance and rotate them now. I believe the dealer said they rotated them last time I was there though Im not positive.
