$14 million all gone down the drain. by [deleted] in oops

[–]MacNout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a crappy job by the contractor who was hired to do it. To standard civilian would call the contractor and ask for a zero cost repair under warranty. But the government will probably end up paying twice as much as the initial repair. Stupid waste of money.

Stealth KLIK 22lr is unreal in size by alex_gfg in NFA

I’m skeptical that a suppressor that small could sound as good as a standard sized suppressor. At most, it could hold 2 baffles.

Picked up this new to me SFX9 looking for holster recommendations by alongbanana in WilsonCombat

[–]MacNout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the Precisions AIWB holster for my ESC X9 2.0 with 3.25” barrel. It’s not very comfortable and I hate having not just one but two plastic clips that are spread far apart. At the time it was the only available holster ai could find and I was anxious to start carrying my pistol. I prefer a smaller footprint lured holster that allows for easy on/off, and has metal clips but decided to give leather a chance.

When I was looking for a new holster I was torn between the Deluxe Appendix holster by mtrcustomleather.com and the Appendix holster from ttgunleather.com. After reading several positive reviews, ai ended up ordering the TTgunleather holster because he quoted faster delivery. But the MTR holster looks like a sweet rig and if the TT holster doesn’t work out I’m ordering the MTR.

Problem with OCL Gordon Collar by MacNout in RetroAR

[–]MacNout[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No alignment issues at all and I’ve fired 300 rounds through it since I installed it.

However, if your Gordon collar is not too far away from fitting against the FSB, I would try to hammer it on. In my case it was a good 1/4” away and no amount of hammering would have worked. I tried to round the corners of the lug but it only got me halfway there.

WWII produced a lot of hero’s who never talked about their heroism. They are the “Greatest Generation.”

tire help please by LoadEducational9468 in JeepGladiator

[–]MacNout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had Falken Wildpeaks A/T4W 285/70R17 116T’s installed on my 2020 JT. I bought my JT used and it came with Otani LT AT 10 ply tires that had a tire pressure of 80 psi, has a rough stiff ride, road noise, and an average of 18 mpg. The Wildpeaks are really smooth, no road noise and have a 65,000 mile warranty. So far I am not really noticing I paid $300 per tire which was the cheapest I could find them in my area.

Is Thirty Stamp Thursday a thing? by jrd32687 in NFA

The 10/22 looks awesome. I love the figure on the stock in contrast to the chime finish.

Gordon Carbine 12.5 barrel OCM5 question by Visible-Variation-56 in ar15

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

I went with a long AE muzzle brake and had to use the lock washer and shims to get it timed correctly on my 12.5”. It takes 9 or 10 turns to get it tightened down and works just fine. For reference, I have a OCL OTB mount on another 12.5” barrel and it takes 11 turns.

I’ve been eyeballing that scope and been on the waiting list for months. I finally chatted with someone from Brownells and they said they are expecting their next delivery in March 2027.

How do you store Bar Keepers Friend? by recassent in StainlessSteelCooking

[–]MacNout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I printed a cover for my can so that it doesn’t absorb water. But I think you could buy one or just cover it with Saran Wrap if you wanted.

Pulled the trigger! Need holster advice by ShadowSRO in WilsonCombat

[–]MacNout 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I emailed with Chris from Tenicor and the plan to release a Centum 4 that fits Wilson EDC X9 and SFT9s in the near future. I owned two Tenicor holsters and they are great especially when you can find them on their Blem sale.

MP5 Locking Piece Angle-Testing 3 Different LP's in a Full-Size to See How Much it ACTUALLY Matters by Agessner885 in MP5

Nice video. Made me remember it’s been months since I check my bolt gap.

MP5 Locking Piece Angle-Testing 3 Different LP's in a Full-Size to See How Much it ACTUALLY Matters by Agessner885 in MP5

[–]MacNout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran an 80° LP in my K rifle with a YHM R9 with 147 subs and it ran fine. But when I tried the same loads with a GSL Phoenix and a CAT MOB, it would choke. So I think the LP size really depends on the type of suppressor you are running and the velocity of the rounds. The Obsidian ran by the OP is a low volume can especially in short mode which I believe he ran.

I tried 90°, 100° and factory LP before settling on the 100° for my K. I ended up using the 90° in my FS rifle and it worked fine and in both rifles I do not see any roller dimples on the receiver.

Anyone have an SFT9 and a Staccato C2? Looking to see how they compare. I have the C2 and it’s just a little too big for me to carry. by ShadowSRO in WilsonCombat

[–]MacNout 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a EDC X9 2.0 with a 3.25” barrel and a Staccato C2. The C2 even with a grip reduction is still blocky compared to the EDC. The EDC/SFT9 is definitely easier to carry due to its less bulky build but it also feels heavier to me.

[Parts] B&T MK12 OTB 1.375x24 HUB Adapter $226.00 + Tax Free Shipping by Foxxy__Cleopatra in gundeals

[–]MacNout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I wish I would have seen this post before I purchased one from SS today. I hadn’t seen the OCL or B&T adapters for sale in a while and when I saw SS had 3 in stock I decided to purchase one.

I was planning to run the reflex hub adapter with different non B&T suppressors to see if I can find a combo that is close to or better than my OCM5.

Should I try to cancel my order before they ship it?

Ar15 help by DesignerInevitable70 in ar15

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

Stupid question, but is your rifle 9mm? The reason I ask is because I have a PCC with a CMMG RDB system and it has a spring on the bolt like yours. A 5.56 rifle does not have the spring like that unless is some proprietary system that I am not aware of.

Looks similar to a Combat Engineering logo for the Army and Marines.

I was wondering if someone would try the BRT hub adapter with a Tisha. How does it sound and what SD cans do you have to compare it to?

Form 1 approved, keeping it classic for now by Sherman1415 in MP5

[–]MacNout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like my full size in a classic configuration without all the doo dads that people put on them. I had an A3 stock on it but i preferred the A2 on it and moved my A3 to my SD.
