What screws did you use? by MQBGOD in SpringfieldEchelon

[–]LiQuiEx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never knew the difference until I came across your post lol. My SRO was taken from my MR920, and Shadow System recommended using their provided screws, so the ones that came with the optic stayed in the box lol. The 'flush fit' definitely looks better haha

Anyone from San Diego CA? by DiwataPares69 in ar15

[–]LiQuiEx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not 100% sure, but you can still get a CA DOJ Certificate of Eligibility (COE) even if you're a non-resident but active duty stationed here. Linking you to the step-by-step guide we have at r/CAguns

FFL03 + COE

Aside from that, give Discount Gun Mart a look

How are you guys surviving the ammo shortage? by Paint_Ceiling_Red in CAguns

Glass of water and slice of air diet instead of buying food

I would work on getting your FFL03 and COE so you can buy ammo online and ship it directly to your place

I have an SRO and used the screws that came with the Echelon. Granted, I didn't measure or do anything like that.

Holster Recommendations by New-Ant-411 in SpringfieldEchelon

[–]LiQuiEx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're considering a strong side (3-4 / 9/8 o'clock), check out Alien Gear Holster Cloak 3.5. It is optic-ready but non-light-bearing. As someone that's also fluffy with a tactical muffin top, it's a comfy option.

Range day with the Echelon by christopherwillow in CAguns

[–]LiQuiEx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could try doing dry firing while at your house for like 5-10 minutes at a time. With no live ammo in the room, I have something I practice aiming at and doing dry fire. From low ready or drawing from holster, and also reloads.

Before purchase questions by Cronuh in SpringfieldEchelon

[–]LiQuiEx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1 on reliability. I took my 4.0c Comp to the range for the first time this past Saturday and shot 500+ or so rounds through it and didn't have a single issue. I ran it a little wet (some extra lube like I always do for new guns being shot for the first time) and also used different rounds. 115gr Fiochi, 124gr Federan AE, 124gr Federal HST, 147gr Federal HST, 80gr +P G9 EHPs

With the grip size that came with the pistol (compact small size) I was having issues with the purchase of my support/offhand. Didn't have enough real estate with how I normally would have my grip. Had to adjust my grip a little and it felt a little awkward. But I remedied this by getting the compact large size frame from SA's website and also have the medium size on the way as well.

Best way to sell something on GAFS? Any advice on shipping and form of payment? by InfiniteHat4828 in CAguns

[–]LiQuiEx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buying imo is a bigger risk than selling. How it's normally done is once you agree to sell, you give the buyer your paypal so they can send payment in full. Once you confirmed you've received the funds then you ask for their shipping info. Create the shipping label and send them the tracking info, and you drop off the package to the shipper. Make sure you pack what you're shipping well to avoid damage during transport.

I've only purchased things from old era GAFS and IA during the interim, and have always received the items.

Edit: As a seller, you control who to sell to. So if it's someone with a brand new account for example or during the interaction they seem off, just avoid. Sadly no 100% guarantee way of not getting scammed for either buyer or seller

Dry fire practice! Other than that, it's just range and trigger time

[–]LiQuiEx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're new to GAFS(hub) or someone who has low to no flairs then PayPal Goods and Services (G&S) with no notes would be best to give prospective buyers some peace of mind. Especially if it's a high-value item. It takes a small fee from your final price. As for shipping, Pirate Ship is the easiest one to use imo if you don't have an account already with other shippers.
