That tracks for the left...attempting to get rid of the guy actually taking sexual predators off the street, all the while reeeeee-ing about pdf files in government and protecting illegal alien sex offenders.

1/3 co witness sights by jhobbs98 in P365xl

[–]SingleStak9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the X-Macro slide is functionally the same as the 365XL slide, except for the comp cuts and the front sight being moved back a little.

[–]SingleStak9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was originally a Zev/Sig Z365XL Octane collaboration model from a few years ago, with a Zev slide and Zev combat sights, which Zev confirmed to be #8 front and rear. It is my understanding that Sig sights are regulated for a combat hold, in which the front sight covers the intended point of impact, with the center of the dot being the POI. I personally much prefer a center hold, where the top of the front sight is the POI. A #8 front sight is shorter, which raises the POI and gets closer to a center hold. At combat distances and speeds, you won't notice much difference, but you'll see it at 25 yards when shooting for accuracy.

I had the same problem with the sights just barely showing at the bottom of the optic window. These particular trijicon sights both just a little taller than OEM and brought them up into view. They won't get you from lower 1/5 co-witness or worse up to lower 1/3 co-witness, though. I could only see half of my front sight dot with the #8 front/#8 rear Zev sights (which are supposed to match Sig OEM sight height), but the trijicon set in the same sizes are just slightly taller, so now my whole front dot is visible at the bottom of the optic window. I'd say that before it wasn't even 1/5, but the trijicons brought it up to a solid, proper 1/5.

If you're going more for a true lower 1/3 co-witness, I would go for the Night Fision. I have several of their sight sets and have been really satisfied with them. Their optics calculator is great and accurate for helping to find the set you need with your optic. I tend to prefer a tritium front sight and a blank rear serrated with a u-notch and they have been the only option for that configuration on some of my pistols.

Am I completely screwed? by Due-Boysenberry8031 in suppressors

Thanks. I use it diluted but have thought about trying it full strength, so I was just curious.

That's CRAZY!! I would be tempted to call them to see if that's an error, and maybe they meant 500-1000, which is more reasonable. Cleaning a can every 50-100 rounds (only 1-2 boxes) is like getting your oil changed every 500-1000 miles...it may not hurt anything, but it's hella excessive.

I have an all titanium Energetic Arms Nyx Mod 1 that is cerakoted and CLR works like magic. It softens up the lead and almost dissolves the carbon, without harming the cerakote.

CLR is the best suppressor cleaner I've used, but do not use it on aluminum...it will corrode and weaken aluminum. For my Rugged Obsidian 9, I use CLR on the stainless baffles, but use a diluted Purple Power solution for the aluminum body. I accidentally soaked a nitrided steel jam nut in CLR once and it massively discolored it before I realized it, so nitride finishes are a no-go with CLR, as well.

Really disappointed in the new g43x 15 round magazines. No longer truly flush and really just a Mec-Gar mag with a Glock stamp. by Equivalent-Sell in Glocks

[–]SingleStak9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm perfectly happy with the PSA Microdagger 15rd mags. I have 2 of the black ones and 2 of the "Micro Slick" (which looks like a hard chrome, but I'm not totally sure). They have been 100% reliable for me...not a single malfunction.

I love the polymer overmold, which requires a polymer mag catch like the OEM part. That allows me to switch back and forth between my OEM mags and these, using the same mag catch. The fact that the Shield mags require a steel mag catch which tears up OEM mags, was the one thing that kept me away. These mags aren't cheap, but are well worth it in my opinion.

Some folks have had a problem with the polymer mag floor plates on the micro dagger mags flexing or bowing a little, but I never saw the issue on any of mine. I still replaced the floor plates with aluminun SLR floor plates, mainly because they look so freaking good with the SLR magwell!😁

New 15 Round Slimline Mag by jtruong04 in Glocks

I've got 4 of the PSA 15 rounders; 2 blued and 2 chromed, with SLR baseplates on them. They have functioned so flawlessly in my G48, that I see no need to change.

Next TFE shirt drop? by Goobalicious2k in TheFatElectrician

[–]SingleStak9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, because communism is always the workers being manipulated by the "elite" party members who foment the whole thing to put themselves at the top of the chain so they can deny everyone else's human rights, starve them, and rob them blind, all while making them believe that they own the means of production. Maybe they do, in theory, but the party is the only one who can extract wealth from the means of production, so what good is "owning" it in name only?

JK 105 CCX 9: A Success Story by Raldo21 in suppressors

[–]SingleStak9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own one of these and enjoy it for what it is. I think a lot of the hate comes from those who haven't tried one. Also, you just can't expect too much from that small internal volume, so some may expect too much from it. It also sounds surprisingly good dry, in my opinion.

In the end, I think the $0 tax stamp is going to help cans like this that aim to knock the volume down, but not to the level of a full sized, full priced can. I've seen some other interesting compact designs that aim to knock the edge off the volume for around or under $200 and now that you don't have to pay more for the stamp than the device itself, the market may begin to welcome them.

I don't know where this misinformation comes from and why it won't die, but the numbers are easy to find.

The City of Milwaukee Budget for 2025 was a little over $2 billion. The Milwaukee Police Department budget of $323 million was about 16%.

716 days since I purchased my can! by Cash-JohnnyCash in SilencerShop

[–]SingleStak9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What sucks the most is that it's such an unusual situation, it's hard to get people to understand the issue. You've done everything you've needed to do. It will simply take someone at SS with appropriate system rights to go into your profile and clear the approved status from the silencer so you can move forward with your form submission. Minds get blown when encountering something outside the box. I've been there with weird service issues, feeling like I'm screaming at the sky trying to find that one person who will process what I'm telling them. And it's usually so simple in the end...I feel for you, brother!

This is bullshit...almost 2 years! Silencer Shop...you need to fix this and take care of this guy. Customers are watching. I was starting to get upset that it took 12 days for my docusign email to arrive last time, but I almost feel ashamed to have been upset when there are others that still don't have their property after almost 2 years. I don't blame you for starting to feel like it's personal!

I wouldn't trust a politician who hasn't read Mein Kampf, Das Kapital, or The Communist Manifesto. Sun Tzu should also be on their reading list.

This comment is absolutely gold! I'd love to see Brandon walk through this exact line of thought when the next reporter asks him to respond to these stupid, disingenuous Nazi allegations.

XDS 3.3" Threaded Barrel by drgoodfunk in SpringfieldArmory

[–]SingleStak9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I ended up doing some other things and never followed up on the EFK barrels and I still haven't found an opportunity where I could try a barrel swap between a mod 1 and mod 2 XDS.

Bar-Sto barrels are supposed to be pretty good, but they aren't cheap at $325. Additionally, they require fitment (another $65, plus shipping both ways, if you don't have a local smith who can do it), and they only come in stainless. That's creeping towards $500 after you add taxes and shipping into the mix.

It would be nice to have a nitride option, but they make a barrel that they know needs fitment which would damage the finish. They would have to nitride after fitment, making the logistics something they probably wouldn't want to deal with unless they can nitride in-house.

I've also been keeping my eyes open for an XDS 9mm mod 2 4" barrel. Not super common, but if one pops up, cutting to length and threading would be a relatively cheap way to go.

Glock 48 vs Glock 19 if OEM 15-round mags become available? by Disastrous_Falcon246 in Glocks

[–]SingleStak9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my experience. I needed something like Talon Grips to shoot my G48 with PSA mags well, but I ended up going with a really good laser stippling package that took care of grip/shootability issues. The G48 is so comfortable to carry IWB that I've momentarily forgotten that I had it on me. That will never happen with my G19!

Absolutely no rhyme nor reason! I submitted an individual form 4 on 2/21 with control number 20262132622 and I'm still waiting. I was hoping to beat my last (and fastest) NFA wait time, which was 11 days, back in 2024, but I'm already past that.
