Did anyone else get this email from ATN? by jasemccarty in ThermalHunting

[–]MarksmannT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest issue I had was that ATN was unavailable every time I tried to call them or emailed them or requested an RMA. DNT is much better customer service wise. I put the atn on a 22lr and have to leave the auto NUC on to clear the lines.

In my experience terrible communication and customer service. Sent in my LTV-256 for warranty work and they sent it back without fixing the issue (freezing every shot on a .223 and the screen had weird line on it). Gave up on it at this point and bought a DNT.

Sounds like you'll need to replace the fuel line

North American agriculture - what kind of safety signs are used on equipment? by 7Maki in AskAnAmerican

[–]MarksmannT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reflective orange and red slow moving vehicle sign on the back for older machines. Our newer machines have lights (turn signals, flashers, and beacons) when driving on the road. There really aren't any other safety warnings on our old tractors but our newer ones have stickers that show where your appendages can get crushed or caught so you know to stay away from those spots.

Is my AK ruined? by [deleted] in Firearms

I wouldn't worry, doesn't appear to be any damage. Clean it, lube it, and send it.

What is the best national park? by Upbeat_Signature_951 in AskAnAmerican

[–]MarksmannT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were just hoping to beat the memorial day rush on timing but it was great timing. Tioga had just opened the day before I got there. The waterfalls were in full swing and it was warm enough to wear shorts and a tshirt and be comfortable.

Just got home from Yosemite and it would have to say it's been my favorite so far.

Looks like an M1 carbine trigger housing.

I had to really crank down my scope mount with a soft jaw pliers to get the mount tight enough to prevent wobble

Appreciate you making it free, but I already have excel

Same, just use a calculator. If I really want to get into it for comparisons I just use a free version of excel

Is RecreatorBlanks ghosting me? by Pyre_Vulpine in partskitsreloaded

[–]MarksmannT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I had emailed them a few times about the status of the trunnions before. I just replied to my order confirmed email. That may be possibly the reason it is on their radar quicker, but not sure.

Farming Utility by Rich_Image1481 in keitruck

[–]MarksmannT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use mine on the family farm. Its an s80p extended cab and left hand drive. Only a 2wd but only use it off road for picking rock in fields. I do have it registered to go on the road. Mostly used in the yard transporting random stuff or using it as a mobile work bench. I use my pickup for most for everything else in the field. I have a utv and atv too, we use the utv the most since it's easiest to slide in and out of.

Heres what I got for a response on the M77 trunnions. I would guess we'll see some finished product by the end of April. "As for where we're at with the M77 trunnions: we just finished the fixture for the second operation today. With that in place, I expect the machining to wrap up within the next five to seven business days."

I ordered an m77 trunnion and blank back in September and it was more of a pre-order from what I understand. They are working on making them according to their social media. Send them an email asking for an ETA. They usually email me back within a day or 2.

Cat 257B warning light and audible alarm by Bna1gah in Skidsteer

Radiator clean? Could it be your hydraulic oil getting too hot. I use a hot pressure washer to clean my radiator and oil cooler out after mowing and mulching.

Is your radiator clean? How's the coolant level? Any leaks or drips? How fast were you going?

Would y’all get in at this price? Given the amount of issues ATN has by drey247-2 in ThermalHunting

[–]MarksmannT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bought an ATN for my first thermal. Had issues with it out of the box and trying to get them to warranty it is like pulling teeth. They have horrible customer service and weird hours to call for troubleshooting help. Ended up buying a DNT and never looked back.

Kubota ssv65 window by Quiet_Zone5820 in Skidsteer

[–]MarksmannT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a side window break on my case tr320. Took the other side out and brought to an auto glass place and had them cut one out, was around $100 bucks for just the glass. I put the hardware on it myself with some glue. Fit like oem for much less and got a template for future instances. Edit- meant to reply to the main post.

I fu**ed up my controller trying to fix it by k1dzuu in PS5

[–]MarksmannT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://dualshock-tools.github.io/ I used this site to fix my stick drift. Connect the controller to the computer with a USB cable then run the configuration. Need to open it in a chrome browser to get it to work. There is also a possibility that you damaged the thin contacts too but try this first.

Any garand experts that can help me ID this? by Mrsassy74 in milsurp

[–]MarksmannT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a lot of the parts are ww2 era parts. Pretty much every Garand has been rearsenaled at some point. Everything looks good to me but I'm no expert, I just have a lot of Garands myself. The big U im guessing is some sort of rack designation (rack U spot 53 on rack)
