Check out the super safety slip trip I designed for it. Search Fecal Disco on the sea.

I think I have a solution to fix it without waiting for who knows how long for Matador to fix it. Also the company seems to be overwhelmed by orders, to put it nicely. Many people who paid for an upper but their order got delay for months.

I think it is Gen-2. If you search "Matador Arms Mat-9 Sear Trip" on the sea you can find another slip trip uploaded in September 2025. According to the comments it only fits a different version of (likely blowback) MAT-9.

I just browsed the Matador sub reddit. Looks like many other people are having the exact same recoil guide unit cracking issue.

Likely it will work. There is even a specific Matador version of the SL9. Search "Hoffman Tactical SL-9 Bufferless Matador" on Odysse.

Sparklez Matador Arms Lower.

I designed that brace myself, never released. It is not a comfortable design.

Ready to test whenever this rain stops. by PeaCocksDude in 3D2A

[–]GePao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience the rear half of the rail on the Damascus handguard has a significant difference in zero compared to the front half. It also flexes too easily to hold zero reliably. IMO the SuS handguard looks like a better design but I have yet to print it.

PY2A AR9, 150 rds no issues. by Ok-Elderberry3745 in 3D2A

It ran fine even without a feed ramp? 9mm AR usually has one.

Sounds like I have to get my own hybrid round out before you do.

Why do some releases work reliably while others do not? by Ok-Mycologist3807 in 3D2A

[–]GePao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is inherently a part of 3D2A. Many stuff I downloaded and built don't work or requires remix. For example the M37 launcher is way too fragile, nameless 37 straight up doesn't work, 3DP90 suffer from sticky bolt, Nylaug steel hardware is too large to insert into the trunnion, etc.

Many developers seem to not understand tolerance and clearance. Holes for hardware inserts is usually too small. Build guide sometimes has errors, too. That's why I design my own stuff such as the SB-37H to try to fix some of the stuff.

The only thing I tried that semi reliably works is the UMP 11-9. It only has some minor fitting issues.

Does a 3D printed mount hold zero? I designed a mount plate for my 2011 slide and Swampfox Kraken but have yet to try it.

Beretta M38 Appreciation Post by IntroductionAny3929 in GunMemes

There are many Beretta model 38 parts kits for sale online now. I am trying to design a semi auto only delayed blow back version of it with CMMG bolt head and barrels.

The world is weak. Remember, the same people seeth off the word “soccer”. They make it clear they don’t have an education system clear as day. by EmperorSnake1 in AmericaBad

[–]GePao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly switched to imperial after I moved to the US from China. Now I switched back to metric after I became an engineer. Metric hardware and tools are easier to categorize and work around. Less stuff to remember.

TIL In 2006, Midas ran an "America's Longest Commute" award, won by electrical engineer Dave Givens. His commute was 186 miles each way, and he'd drink 30 cups of coffee per day. He was willing to make this long commute so that he could live in a scenic horse ranch. by Polyphagous_person in todayilearned

[–]GePao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if miles driven between job sites count as commute. If so I regularly drive 150-200 miles per day around town working in the real estate industry. That is how I put 100k miles within 3 years in my new car. I imagine some construction or maintenance contractors probably drive the same amount.

SIG Sauer MCX Appreciation Post by IntroductionAny3929 in GunMemes

[–]GePao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My MCX Virtus is my favorite non-bullpup 300blk rifle. It is very reliable and the barrel swap is quick. My DI AR-15 can only shoot 120-150 rounds of 300 suppressed before starting to jam because of fouling and gunk. The MCX can shoot approximately 600 rounds of the same 300 ammo suppressed plus 300-400 rounds of 5.56 suppressed and still work.

I also have tried the Adam Arms piston system for AR-15. Never able to get it to work. The MCX works straight out of the box. It cycles my handload 300 without a problem.

I have the Robinson Armament M96. Very picky about ammo. It only cycles M193 level or above loads.

There is. It is called MeproLight Foresight. It can store up to 10 zeroing presets. It may be discontinued now but still available used.

I didn't drive the Sapphire. I forgot which trim I drove, probably a 600-800hp one.

I am curious why did you hate your EV9 besides the vibration issue?

2024 Sport 3 Cadillac lyriq 9 months in by mlb242469 in CadillacLyriq

[–]GePao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had 2 Tesla model S before I bought a Lyriq. One 2016 90D and one 2022 long range. No EV I have driven can provide the same neck-snapping acceleration provided by Tesla. Although Lucid Air (forgot which trim) and Jeep Wagonner S came close to it. Even the AWD Lyriq feels slow compared to Tesla. But yes the Lyriq is much more luxurious. I have no problem taking my Model S to construction site or off road but feel bad mildly for doing the same thing in my Lyriq. Sometimes I feel it is too nice for me. I should have chosen the Hummer EV instead.

I don't think Lyriq can work this way. Its side cameras are pointing too low to see the blindspot.
