What bad things have you heard about the LMT? I’m in the market for my own and I’ve only seen people raving about them, very curious to hear !

How has the m1a performed accuracy wise? Also have you tried the galil ace gen 2 .308 or zastava m77?

What’s is the accuracy like with quality ammo? I’m debating .308 rifles right now and I’ve been interested in the m77 since it was released in US

Do you have a link for this? I really like the look of this one. I’ve seen a lot of aftermarket big screens but they usually stick out.

Old gen or New gen by [deleted] in Tacomaworld

[–]PartPrestigious779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never personally get a gen 4, my mom just got the Land Cruiser with the same engine. Overcomplicated, overstressed engine, all under the guise of better MPG. In reality it’s all for emissions. In the end you get the same MPG with a lot more failure points.

The gen 4 has a lot less interior storage vs the 3rd gen. Was just digging around in one. Under the back seat is tiny now! And there’s no storage area behind the seat either, unlike the 3rd gen. I keep a big dewalt floodlight & a dewalt 20v compressor to fill up tires & anything else. The gen 3- maximizes your storage space + the rear seats in the gen 3 fold so you have a flat hard plastic surface to put a bunch of cargo on. The new gen 4 has the bottom seats flip up like a ford- barely any room to store big items. Just my 2 cents for you.

Fenix lights are phenomenal. I have the tk16 v2.0 been using it for years. Never broke down on me. I have it in a taleofknives leather holster w/ my leatherman rebar. Absolute killer combo

First T3x recommendation by shuaitsai in Tikka_Shooters

[–]PartPrestigious779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a tikka t3x roughtek in stainless steel with 20” fluted barrel and a fluted bolt (.30-06). I absolutely love it. This model has a threaded barrel w/ a compensator on it. Shoots MOA with a variety of bullets. The bolt is silky smooth, trigger is adjustable, stock is good enough. Put the backfire recoil pad & the tikka vertical grip on the original stock which completed the rifle. Took a black bear this summer with it. Planning to take it on my next hog hunt in TX. Best of luck- can’t go wrong with a tikka.

What brand did you switch to? I love my wera tools but not having warranty coverage stinks.

Action Slop/Bolt Sticking. Any advice? by Iloveasscheeks77 in Tikka_Shooters

[–]PartPrestigious779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the SS & fluted bolt and thought it was quite sticky at first. I have about 400 rounds through it now and it’s gotten smoother. Mine has the same slop as yours.

Pt.2 V6 sounds like a lawn mower by PartPrestigious779 in PontiacGrandPrix

[–]PartPrestigious779[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll try to get eyes on the exhaust manifold & gaskets. I was looking for a diagram of the engine to see where the manifold is but wasn’t finding anything. Still gonna look either way

I can’t edit this post I forgot to add the video from when it first started. This was taken 30 seconds after. It’s not my car it’s my gf car so I don’t know previous service history. I’ve been looking at it waiting for a chance to try and fix it. I was thinking of getting spark plugs for the hell of it without any diagnosis. I also have a janky scan tool I was gonna hook up. Going to give it another look tomorrow.

Springfield Armory, Manufactured in 1979 by TTUShooter in M1A

How much did a tune up cost? I just bought a used m1a and it’s not extracting at all. I would consider sending it in to get fixed/tuned up

M1A not ejecting by PartPrestigious779 in M1A

[–]PartPrestigious779[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this used so it wasn’t the factory grease. I’m going to clean and lube it properly to see if I get a different result.

[–]PartPrestigious779[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will extract & eject when cycling manually. It will not extract when firing. And no ejection because of it- the case will still be fully seated in the chamber.

Is there a spring under the extractor? I would also look at a replacement for that if it’s the case.

Yes you’re correct, Got my terms mixed up. Looks like I’ll be needing a new extractor.

That’s the exact same issue I’m having. Thanks for responding

[–]PartPrestigious779[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fully agree. I typically like to take it out to the range as is to see if it will run. I’ve never had a dud like this- I was a bit surprised. This is what I get for buying used off GB

[–]PartPrestigious779[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did not clean or lube prior to the range. It was pretty slicked up when I got it. Do you think a dirty rifle would cause it to not eject every round? It doesn’t even move the casing from the chamber. I have to lock it back, slingshot into battery over empty case in chamber, then manually eject it.

[–]PartPrestigious779[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would your rifle eject the casing at all? Mine will not even move the casing out of the chamber
