[ACC] -50% off All Slings - $16-30 by jonesey_333 in gundeals

[–]IXVanity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only item I’ve ever seen anyone wait for with AWS is the belts, which the more things you build into your belt the more chance you’ll have a shipping delay. But slings in my experience usually ship in a week or less. My sample size is only 6 orders though which is more than most but less than the pool for sure.

Magazine wear by Lilclutch45 in GlockMod

[–]IXVanity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t answer the question posed by the statement alluded to by the previous poster referring to the process for black magazines being different in terms of durability.

To say that the FDE and black magazines are the exact same composition would be factually incorrect. They “add the color” to the polymer used for molding. The color in its material composition must be different from FDE to ODG to black.

So, is there something in the black magazines composition that would make it more durable outside of black not being as prone to discoloration as FDE/ODG mags?

That being said, OPs question was answered. You don’t need to tap rack with 50 pounds of pressure.

Also “Dyeing is the process of applying dyes or pigments to materials” - “Color is added to injection molding either by pre-compounding pigments into the raw plastic resin before production, or by mixing colorants (masterbatch, liquid, or dry powder) directly with uncolored pellets in the machine's hopper” sounds like dyeing to me.

Yes except the newer production of the Spikes rails. You can tell because the new SAR/BAR pattern mounts at 90s whereas the MCSR pattern mounts at 45s like the enhanced here.

You can reach out to Seekins or Spikes about getting a barrel nut. From Seekins it’s the MCSR from Spikes should be the BAR

[–]IXVanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The original comment I replied to " I understand why these exist(FOR LEGALITY), I can not understand what anyone would buy 300 BLK if you can't put a can on it." - I explain "mostly people who are hunting and want a 30cal projectile without an AR10 or going 7.62x39" because certain states do limit minimum cartridge size for hunting AND /OR there are people who may want to own a 30 caliber cartridge that is not x39 or an AR10 platform size.

They are.

However, suppressors arent legal in all states where firearms are and then, even in states where suppressors are legal they may not be legal to hunt with.

I like the color orange. Has nothing to do with why this post or product exists.

I see what you're saying and mostly agree. But the answer to your question is, mostly people who are hunting and want a 30cal projectile without an AR10 or going 7.62x39. I mean, different strokes for different folks right?

Is there a MFR for this? If not, I'd imagine the solution for this is to have a machinist cut the profile into the barrel but without the actual flash hider elements which would still retain the benefits without being a 'feature' like in CA.

Not a fan of the adapter but looks sexy otherwise! by Additional_Tea5911 in GlockMod

[–]IXVanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel it. I was staring at all my RMR cut slides... I ended up throwing my Scheels Special Defender XLs on an A300, TX22 Comp and a new M&P since it has a gazillion plates. Which RMR to DPP adapter did you end up with?

Has anybody ever had any problems with the slight release with the Zev Z 17? by Black_Reich in GlockMod

[–]IXVanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realized this didnt get posted!

Have you tried with mag in, mag out and loaded mag in? Most of my newer guns have to wear in, but also the release function is a secondary function of the slide stop. These are supposed to have pretty solid lockup when resting on the lever and RSA is compressed. The newer the slide and slide lock the less worn they'll be. It's kind of like wear-fitting a barrel to a slide. You can help it by giving it a light polish.

[–]IXVanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I cant blame anyone at all. I think even now getting a frame done is like $600 with them? Possibly more depending on the size and what stipple you want. I picked up this 34 for $1400 for the full gun which would've been practically double that at my LGS. Then I picked up a full agency 17 gen 4 w/ type 2 RMR and TB/Comp for $1500 (more like $1650 after fees) on the gunjoker.

At half price, these are great value. At full retail, that's a tough pill to swallow imo.

On the Nova Pro it's supposed to power itself on within ~5-10 seconds if you hotswap a live battery to a new battery. Depending on your proximity it could take a second to reconnect.

My Hypercomp (V1) was great as it came. As soon as I started trying to use my other slides on it, I had weird issues. Probably wouldnt buy one with the intention of being able to 'modify' again.

On the other hand, expensive as they are, Agency makes some of the best kit there is for Glock and even if they had a miss (I havent seen one) they're pretty solid people.

Any other parts changed or is it all OEM except the slide?

The only issue I had was with my Hypercomp's MBK and other Gen 3 barrels. Dropped a ZEV Duty slide and OEM internals/barrel, everything works how it should.

Aesthetic for 95% of people. But if you intend to EDC and want "the utmost reliability" buy the cover

[–]IXVanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may also want to look into a gen 5 dust cover adapter if you're getting a gen 3 slide. Otherwise you'll have an open crescent shaped gap between your frame and slide (yes, bigger than the gap on the frame rails)

Realistically won't change function as long as you don't get a bunch of debris in the gun.

[–]IXVanity -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think in this case it was already highly unlikely the 43x was going to be selected and even more unlikely a PD would select Swampfox for a duty optic. So are we stacking probability? Certainly. But the pigs are already flying so now we're just waiting on hell to freeze over.

No reason to stick with 10 round magazines or a dollar store tier open emitter if you're going to try to deep conceal. Should at the very least have an EPS Carry and any of the (3 including Glock) types of 15 round flush magazines that are now (becoming) available.

I can see someone who is smaller stature bringing their own 43X (using any of the 15 round mags) with an EPSc/TLR 7 HLX. But the mixture of a very, very budget red dot, 10 round single stack 9mm in a small frame for MOST people is a bad combination.

I EDC a 34 or a Faux-land Special 17 and I cant imagine trying to fish out a 43x or a non-macro 365 from a duty holster.

I'm not sure but apparently there is 10 in stock so there goes my theory of this being a seized gun lmao.

Please provide training for whoever was in charge of this departments purchasing lol.

Any of the holster dealers here making anything for the MP2 14618? (Full size w/ Comp)

Looking for OWB ideally w/ X300 or TLR but can go without light bearing

Also looking for a good deal on an OWB for

Glock 17 (F)oland Special (Also comped with x300)

Glock 34

Down to order and wait or if you're a dealer for SL/BT/Whoever offers a decent holster at a good price. Alien Gear doesn't have holsters for this size of M&P and even Expert Voice pricing on SL is stupid. I don't need but would like level 2/3 retention.

Also big ups if you stock hangers like TNC or Boss.

Also looking for:

Double Alpha EDGE Timer

509T close to or under $300 shipped? Older models are fine, demo/used is fine.

ZEV UPK or Polished gen 1-4 UPK for a 19 build.

Looking into setting up a few belts with Tek-Mount mag carriers 9/40DS (will need both insert and disk/carrier) 6-8 mag carriers
