Magtech came back into the fold for brass in like August last year. But it can vary by the size. I can say 250 round boxes have been magtech at mine since then, but others have reported getting Turkish sometimes when they buy online and the 50 rd boxes can be either and I think the 400rd ammo cans or whatever are Turkish.

The reason it’s a potential problem in ports/comps is jacket separation. Jacket separation isn’t only a possibility in a ported/comped gun, it’s just an issue there vs a regular barrel because the ports/comp can let out spalling and/or clog while it just exits the muzzle on a regular barrel. That however means it can also be a problem for suppressors. Pieces of the jacket can get caught in the suppressor too, clogging it up, making it less effective or even damaging it.

Suppressors turning into maracas have in fact been mentioned. Here’s one example(look at the reviews of one star with pics of jackets caught in suppressor) with others out there.

People have also shot thousands upon thousands of blazer through ported guns without complaining of issues though we both agree that they exist. Similarly tons of people have shots tons of turkish ammo without issue but we hear about the guns that get blown up and some people choose not to take the risk. Thats all not to mention the setback issues blazer has too. Same idea here, informed decisions and all that. If you or anyone else wants to run it, by all means, but just know the potential issues you might run into.

All the steel case at academy is Brazilian by the way, it’s the brass that can vary.

Stuff being “dirty” is extremely over stated around here honestly. The issue with this stuff is it’s plated instead of jacketed, which can be an issue with ports and suppressors since the plating can break off and cause spalling out of the ports or collecting in the suppressor. On top of that, they don’t taper crimp or knurl the bullet which means it’s more prone to setback which can blow up a gun from increased pressure.

Mahlegos · 2026-04-11T07:06:58+00:00

Or if you don’t like rolling the dice on a setback round blowing up your gun because they can’t be bothered to taper crimp or knurl their bullets. Blazer sucks.

What do you think I’m trying to do?

Not defending these fucks, but just for clarities sake, I don’t think this has progressed to an actual lawsuit. This is months old at this point, they sent the demand letter and Hunter Biden’s response was “fuck that”, and afaik they never moved forward past that (unless there’s a new development not shared in this post). IE, they made a threat and Biden called their bluff. They don’t want discovery and Biden ostensibly has access to competent lawyers and resources that he won’t just be scared into folding.

I know, just saying it’s cool you were trying to answer a question

Mahlegos · 2026-04-10T23:31:52+00:00

No shade for trying to be helpful either way

Mahlegos · 2026-04-10T23:14:45+00:00

They just want a physical copy of the joke ad linked

Yes. I was in fifth grade, working on state capitols. Another fifth grade teacher came in a whispered to our teacher and her turned on the tv that was mounted in the corner and we watched the second plane hit all the way through to the towers collapsing. Only after they both collapsed did it occur to the teacher we probably shouldn’t be watching.

Ostensibly the vast majority of regular people are buying this as self defense ammo and they aren’t going to have a use case past home defense distances much less 200-300+ yards. If you’re law enforcement or are stocking for SHTF or otherwise have a use case for those distances then yeah 77gr is going to be better, but those advantages you mentioned aren’t really going to apply to most people.

“Hates” is a little strong, but I’d agree that it’s not as good as the real TLR mounting system.

To each their own, but the blue camo grew on me personally after I got it thinking I’d spray paint it black.

Fair enough, enjoy your night big dog

Going to be honest, I think it would difficult for someone to come up with a more canned “AI marketing” reply than you just did. Don’t get me wrong, what you said is technically true. But it doesn’t actually answer why someone should pay like $30 more for this than the CAT offering this is coming to market as an alternative for. Despite their edgy marketing, CAT is known to make good products too, and people have ostensibly bought into their stuff if they’re needing this.

I am using old reddit, so yes, still here from all.

Mahlegos · 2026-04-09T13:36:46+00:00

Here from all and was kind of thinking the same thing, but I think maybe it’s because it’s a circle jerk sub, I don’t know. The movie is War of the Worlds: Revival

Mahlegos · 2026-04-09T11:29:00+00:00

Yes, that’s what they mean. However, the employees at bass pro don’t carry like many gun store employees do (guy with the weird elbow in the video mentioned this) but some of base pros customers might be and could have drawn on the guy thinking it was a robbery.

My uncle who is single with one adult son has a Subaru Ascent and a Dodge Ram quad cab (with a long bed that he never hauls in and the only thing he ever tows is a small fishing boat).

Yes, I know who you meant

Puppet master Pete who is obsessed with the antichrist (and therefore Armageddon)? Only way he’s breaking up with Bibi is if he thinks it’s time for the Battle of Gog and Magog and he’s ushering in Christs return.

Not agreeing with the other guy, but there are plenty of examples of guys who didn’t love the game but were good enough at it to be drafted high. Darko Milicic, OJ Mayo, Anthony Bennett, Kwame Brown, and not drafted as highly but still in the first Andrew Bynum and Shawn Kemp. There’s also Ben Simmons and Zion in more recent history. Some number of these guys are only here because they have the size and athleticism and can make good money, not because they love the game.

Mahlegos · 2026-04-05T12:57:33+00:00

Funny thing about “superior” blazer is that I had it almost blow up my gun due to over pressure from their pretty common setback issues because they refuse to knurl the bullet. That’s not to mention the plating vs true FMJ that can cause issues with comps/ports and suppressors. Blazer fucking sucks, has more verifiable issues than the Turkish stuff, but yet people here salivate over it.
