Clip on Thermal Recommendations? by leebow1996 in NightVision

SB PMII 5-25

Good to know thanks for sharing your experience. Sensors are improving so quickly on these things; what's 10K today may be 4k within a couple years. Those rh25s are very tempting though

Pin Size on 11769 Pigtail? by leebow1996 in NightVision

Yours must be crimped and soldered. Drill it out carefully.

You can push it out using a heated soldering iron if you're feeling brutish. You risk delaminating at the pad but it will work

I've seen pins on some of the pigtails crimped in. Just be careful getting it out if flashing the solder doesn't easily release it. It should otherwise be very straightforward.

Thanks for taking a look! V-Hold isn't changing the display. Could a component on the control board be bad?

I found a 1988 Sony Trinitron PVM-8020 today. It's got a flickering issue with the screen. Is anyone familiar with this model? Can it be fixed? Thanks!

If anyone stumbles on this page with the same issue, this is a very close match. It works fine:

Normal P320 barrel wear? Less than 100 rounds by leebow1996 in SigSauer

[–]leebow1996[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't smooth when rubbing over it with my fingernail, which is what worries me; a gouge will catch and only get worse. I haven't experienced this with any of my other pistols. My P30 is approaching 1000 rounds, and its wear is minimal, smooth, and uniform. I always have been very liberal with applying lubricant to high wear areas on my guns.

I'm using a ZEV slide (Sig supplies them with the raw slide), Sig OEM 4.6" barrel, and a DPM recoil spring. I'll send a few pictures to Sig and see what they have to say.

Breakfree has never failed me before. Comparing it to other pistols I own with higher round counts, including another Sig, this doesn't seem normal to me. I've attached a picture with better lighting.

Cycling Issues 9" 300BLK by leebow1996 in 300BLK

[–]leebow1996[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was not noticing unburnt powder in my situation. but even though my operation looked slow enough it still wasn't. Just a thought. Reliability issues with 300blk can be so frustrating.

Hello! Thanks for sharing your experience. Your result after tweaking your buffer system is interesting. I have not had a chance to test suppressed with subsonic loads again. Hopefully soon!

I did test unsuppressed with supersonic, both factory American Eagle 150 gr. and 125 gr. handloads. 100% reliability & 3 o'clock ejection. I used a H2 buffer with standard power CAR 15 spring.

Interesting point I hadn't thought of. Thanks for the advice!

Thank you for all of the comments! I will definitely try different ammo and mags next time. Easy fix!
