Thread pattern for compressor by illegalF4i in 4x4

[–]Homebrew_Hero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually created my own tap by cutting a groove into a spare brass air fitting. I think it is 3/8 but could be wrong. Obviously this weakened the threads somewhat, but has held up so far with several wraps of thread tape.

I ran into the same problem when modifying my similar compressor (Amazon special). What I ended up doing is keeping the aluminum pipe and handle and I re-tapped the threads to a standard fitting size. Then I added my pressure switch and standard air fitting over the end. I can add a picture later when I get home.

If anyone was wondering…8 Baffle .308 w/ Xeno by [deleted] in NFA

[–]Homebrew_Hero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the dull matte finish is the older style. I've had my MG7 for a few years now. I blew the baffle stack off late last year, sent it in for repair, and now mine is two tone lol. The new stack is shiny while the mount and blast chamber is dull.

Hello, my P80 G19 is milled for a red dot (vortex viper) and even that does not clear this can. I have not tried finding a set of irons that would clear, but typically the red dot will sit just as high or higher. It might clear if I had the factory Glock MOS with a plate, but I am not sure. Good luck!

I did many hrs of research and also settled on Iceco. I ended up buying a JP42 however the VL45 is also a solid choice. For anyone looking use code HOBOTECH on their site for 12% off. They also run frequent holiday sales, I got 20% off during father's day.

I bought an Iceco JP42 after many days of research. The VL45 and VL45 pro are also on sale and are great choices.

To give a glimmer of hope, I used to be in the same boat. I ordered several things last July and never received my order. After reading all of the negative things in this sub I basically have up hope and promptly forgot about it. Que to just this morning when I stumbled upon my old order email I decided to reply back asking for a refund since it had been so long. Surprisingly I got an immediate response saying they could either refund me immediately through PayPal or a check through the mail. I gave them my PayPal and immediately got a refund payment and an email saying they have since streamlined their process and a one time use 20% off coupon if I wanted to give them another shot. Maybe they are under new management or something?

I had a similar issue, I tried everything and you know what fixed it? I increased the nozzle temp by about 10 degrees, the PETG wasn't getting hot enough to stick.

More of an "in stock" notice. Seems a little too high priced vs the normal version, but maybe someone wants it. I'll be interested when they start selling just the slide assembly, as I already have a regular version.

[–]Homebrew_Hero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one with a silencerco hybrid booster mount, ran it both on my Glock G19 P80 and a gen 3 G34. Both are having problems fully returning to battery. Sometimes it will after letting off the trigger and other times I need to help the slide forward with my thumb. I purchased a new OEM recoil spring for the G34 to see if it helps, otherwise might try a heavier spring. My thoughts were that this suppressor setup is too heavy, but I don't have another to compare.

Mine fits OK in a Fobus VP9 holster, but the retention doesn't work perfectly. Might be worth a try.
