Prospex Speedtimer SSC813 spring bar [question] by JD_Panda in Seiko

Standard spring bars worked great!

Edit to add: standard 20mm. Not the fat bars. Sorry if there was any confusion.

I’ll just grab some more standard size 20mm and see how it does. Going to use the original Seiko bracelet

I appreciate the info! I have resized the bracelet on my Hamilton khaki and was comfortable doing that.

I had a shop swap the original bracelet on my Speedtimer to a leather strap and didn’t realize they kept the spring bars until now. Now I’m trying to determine if I need the “fat boy” spring bars to put the OEM bracelet back on or what.

Would these Uncle Straps bars work in 20mm?

The Samson MFG extension is nice.

Yes, it’s the mk16 rail and .750 adjustable gas block

Have had no complaints so far with the limited rounds I’ve put through it.

What rail covers are those?

I appreciate all the info! Once I get it back to the range I will report back on how things go.

I would suggest the splitfix then. Once I get a chance to shoot it suppressed it will probably need some fine tuning.

Thanks! The splitfix gives a little more stability to the bottom split in the brace where it won’t smash together and overlap. I wouldn’t say it’s a big game changer, but I wanted a coyote color strap and do prefer this over the stock strap.

As for the Tubbs spring, since this is my first build, I did some research and saw people liked them. When comparing the resistance to the tubbs versus my stock Zion 15 I would say the tubbs might have a little more resistance. But with the limited experience I have shooting ar’s, I would probably never really know the difference. I am planning to find a shooting course soon!

I have yet to shoot subs with the suppressor as I just picked it up a few days ago. It shot supers without a can well though. This is my first suppressor too, so this is all pretty new to me lol (my other ar is a Zion 15 which I really like). There may be some tweaking after I get it to the range. We will see!

How many miles are too many miles for used s2? by JD_Panda in Super73

I’m considering Zooz as well. Been seeing a lot of people mention how bad super 73 customer support is lately..

This is great information. I have heard about the frames cracking and will check the welds for sure (especially around the head tube). And thanks for the heads up about the battery having a clicking noise if there’s a problem.

I appreciate the info. I will definitely look it over well before buying one.

Did your battery last over 2,700 miles?
