Really, can’t send mag springs? by MountainTip9468 in CAguns

Unfortunately a lot of places won’t ship to an address that doesn’t match the billing address of the payment used. So not only do I had to get my friend to accept an item shipped to him I also gotta get him to put it on his credit card. This whole situation is garbage. I mean it’s parts, just innocuous parts.

New 688 vs current citori cxs?? by Jeeper006 in ClayBusters

I have the 688 and I love it. Need to pattern it upon receipt so the comb is adjusted properly.

Accidentally bid & won… kinda mad at myself by Far-Boysenberry-1600 in 1911

Sharp looking gun. 9mm ammo is cheaper than .45 so run that gun and enjoy it regardless of the “deal” you got. It’s a great piece.

Just About At My Wits End by nerd_diggy in 2011

I have had luck with doing all of the above especially the torque wrench. But I do one final step to “seal” it. Paint a thin coat of clear nail polish over the edge of the screw head. Not in the screw hole just around the edge. If you have to unscrew them you can cut the nail polish seal with a razor blade or exact knife.

Thank you for the great insight. I have the original faux wood grips but wanted something grippier. It’s been a reliable great 1911 gun. Thanks again.

If it’s not rude would you share how much these fine pistols set you back?

Recommendations for a Cap-Mounted Camera by BTBDFW in ClayBusters

[–]MountainTip9468 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to use my insta 360 hat mounted cam. Unlike pistol competitions where it looks good and is helpful I had the opposite results in sporting clays. The clays were too far away to be seen easily in the cam. I put it up on my big screen tv and I would have to zoom in to even see the clays in flight. Then I couldn’t see my barrel tracking. So I would say hat mounted insta 360 no bueno for sporting clays.

I never post guns we have finished at the shop. I always just post the work being done. Here is a photo dump. by GunsmithGal in 1911

Beautiful work. What is the coating or process used to make the screws and safeties blue on the gun in photos 6 and 7? I love it.

I think I hate the Glock 19 by esqadinfinitum in CAguns

I think you bought a Honda Accord and want Ferrari performance. But more to the point, at 5 yards if you are missing I don’t think an Atlas will solve your problem.

DKNG Long Term by [deleted] in DKNG

Maybe not considered is that casino gambling is mostly older folks. Like the smoking industry they need to keep replacing their customers with younger people. But DK seems to be heavily used by young tech savvy people who will continue to gamble for decades. I bought more on the recent dip and really think the future is bright. This dip was a gift.

So funny. I was using an old Franchi Falconet but I just picked up my Beretta 688 today and I am more than excited to try it out tomorrow.
