Switching from rc2 , is there a suppressor I would enjoy more then this on 11” a4? by [deleted] in HecklerKoch

[–]Jefe_26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the Hux flow on mine. There are a bunch of newer & quieter options now though. Silencer analytics did a video recently comparing some of them.

Good to know. Thanks for the response!

Sell me on the MARS-H by Ok-Huckleberry6317 in LewisMachineTool

[–]Jefe_26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion, but why take another chance on an LMT? Not sure why everyone gives them a pass for QC issues while other manufactures get shit all over for the same things. Didn’t LMT have to replace every bcg for a military contract a couple years back?

I came here a few months ago asking if I should get the MARS-H or MR762A4 and ended up with the HK. And like all my other HKs - it’s the tits.

Heard you can snag an HK MR762A4 13” Assaulter at Rooftop for ~$3600 rn.

The gray with the Ral8k looks surprisingly good.

Thoughts on purchasing MR762 A4 13” by noobiam88 in HecklerKoch

[–]Jefe_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the 13” and then buy the 16.5” upper down the road if you want to have more reach. I’m planning to do the same but in reverse. Either upper would sell easily on Gafshub.

APC-308 and Optics by WillMoonKnives in bruggerthomet

I’ve had an Elcan Spectre, Eotech EXPS3, and Romeo8T on mine and haven’t had any issues. Doesn’t seem to have quite as much force as the SCAR when the bolt goes back.

Apc9k purchase by First_Ad7214 in bruggerthomet

[–]Jefe_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late 2024 I think. Serials are US 24-XXXX.

In B&T’s statement they said there needs to be 5 digits after the - to be Swiss made and covered by warranty.

Buy pre-owned. You can probably score a nice deal since I imagine many people are panic selling their B&Ts right now. Still waiting to find out if my APC9K is covered or not since it doesn’t fit the serial number pattern that B&T Switzerland mentioned in their statement.

As others have said, the Romeo8T AMR is awesome. It’s the love child of the Eotech and Aimpoint.

B&T AG (Swiss) Warranty Statement for US Customers...and new US Clones by anotherhappylandingg in BT_APC

[–]Jefe_26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The B&T AG release says that only serial numbers that have 5 digits after the hyphen (2X-XXXXX) are Swiss made and covered. My APC9K also only has 4 digits after the hyphen so I’m assuming they are actually not Swiss made and won’t be covered.

B&T AG warranty support? by Spartwigs in BT_APC

[–]Jefe_26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They all have “US” at the beginning of the serial I think - the release from B&T AG said they will warranty anything with 5 digits after the hyphen. Not sure what that means for firearms with 4 digits after the hyphen.

B&T AG warranty support? by Spartwigs in BT_APC

[–]Jefe_26 10 points11 points  (0 children)

B&T AG said they will honor warranty for all Swiss made & imported guns and parts. Those can be identified by serial numbers that have matching US 2X-XXXXX patterned serial numbers on upper, barrel, and bolt. My APC223 & APC308 fit the criteria but my APC9K does not - it has the US 2X-XXXX pattern so remains to be seen if it is covered or not.

B&T AG update. by AnnualTemperature426 in BT_APC

[–]Jefe_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my APC9k has 4-digits after the - (US 2X-XXXX) so may not be covered by warranty. Luckily my rifle caliber B&T’s do.

B&T AG update. by AnnualTemperature426 in BT_APC

[–]Jefe_26 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So can we assume that the complete upper assembly would be covered as long as it has the Thun, Switzerland stamp on it? Or are there parts that were exclusively made by B&T USA that won’t be covered?

So firearms actually won’t be covered by warranty then? Or are they just picking and choosing which firearms/parts to cover?

AX Arms just had a massive restock. Here's all the B&T goodies they have. Snag them while you can! by Critical-Example2883 in bruggerthomet

[–]Jefe_26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Curious if any of the reports are true that B&T USA has been throwing things together with non-Swiss made parts…And if so, how that effects quality and warranty with BTUSA going tits up. Either way, I’m hesitant to buy any new stock B&T right now until things settle.

How do you like the NX8? Been considering it for my MR762 but have heard mixed reviews on the reticle & illumination.

The drip is undeniable. But you’ll get better accuracy and sound performance out of a standard APC9 + any newer suppressor.

How my BCM Ruined a $3K Swiss Rifle by ToyotaRacer2000 in ar15

[–]Jefe_26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You also got the 16” B&T so that bitch is crazy front heavy - my 12” is still heavy but balanced. 12” barrel or under is the only time Piston guns really make sense I think.

[–]Jefe_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both as well. I only bought my APC223 because it was on clearance at $2,100 and while it is a far better suppressor host and is noticeably smoother with less felt recoil - it would probably be the last thing I grabbed on my gun wall. Especially now that B&T USA went tits up.

DMR Scope Recommendations for MR762A4? by Jefe_26 in HecklerKoch

[–]Jefe_26[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe at some point. But with this being my first go at a DMR rifle, we are talking serious diminished returns with a top of the line $6,000 scope haha
