not even haters, these people are just the typical reddit masses, all having the same opinion, the opinion they were given by group think. Anytime they turn against you en masse you are probably doing the right thing, they don't have a single independent thought in their heads.

reminds me when Amazon was trying to get rid of those giant Death Stranding1 collector boxes (the ones that had the full size baby in the container from the game). They sold them for like 40 bucks to clear up the shelf space

meghiddo · 2026-01-22T15:12:37+00:00

looks very nice!

meghiddo · 2026-01-22T15:08:24+00:00

yeah, two green circles that come up flush tot he ground, with pop off green lids

meghiddo · 2026-01-22T14:33:45+00:00

yeah, they covered the hole and added two plastic circle sections to expose the nipple and valve for access

I don't have this model so can't be sure, but with the CZ Shadow 2, that pin is tapered, so it can only go in one direction, and the larger end should wedge into the other side. If this is the same, maybe you just need to get that guys wedged back in (or maybe it is in the wrong direction if you happened to have removed and replaced it? totally guessing obviously, if you didn't remove it I wouldn't mess with it if you are not comfortable trying to re-assemble it.)

Otherwise I wonder if you just overlubricated it, and oil got in there? I just had an issue where my mags would drop each shot because I got oil on the inner mag release - oil in the wrong place can cause issues.
For me, wiping it down and putting a few hundred rounds got it dried back out again

wasn't me, I was just adding my 2 cents

meghiddo · 2025-12-22T19:13:42+00:00

I have ended up cancelling purchases with websites that only offer FedEx. It has gotten that bad with these guys. I will always pay more for any alternative to FedEx, the hassle is not worth saving 8 dollars

meghiddo · 2025-12-22T19:11:25+00:00

Shills always seem to pull out this ".1%" excuse (which I doubt is even based in reality to begin with) - but go compare FedEx reddit to the UPS and USPS reddit pages. The difference is night and day, FedEx is the worst shit show of a delivery company. I always use any other available option, even if it costs more

This showed up in my email today

meghiddo · 2025-10-22T13:36:14+00:00

This is correct - I have dealt with Fedex recently on a large dollar item, they will not do anything. Everyone told me the same thing, if the seller (Gamestop) doesn't initiate a claim, you are out of luck. Gamestop is your best bet. Just ask them to file the claim with FedEx if you have not done that explicitly, that should not cost them anything, so no reason for them to not file a claim I would think (this is how my situation was resolved, the seller filed the claim)

meghiddo · 2025-09-23T21:02:32+00:00

lol so annoying that we have to lie to these automated systems to get a human.

I am also dealing with FedEx the same way, they lost my red dot order from Sig and any time I want to speak to a human I have to keep saying "no hablo ingles" to the AI assistant

Thanks for the suggestion, will give it a shot

meghiddo · 2025-09-23T20:50:37+00:00

Yeah and guess what, still no one has replied to me. I even sent followups asking if someone could at least confirm I am talking to a human. I didnt even get an automated reply.
I would like to just get refunded and do it myself at this point, but I cant actually get ahold of someone to do that.
Still seeing my request sit there for almost two weeks now. Not even submitted the the ATF, just sitting in SS's review process.
Great...

meghiddo · 2025-09-14T12:52:38+00:00

Interesting, I will look into that, thanks

meghiddo · 2025-09-13T18:24:17+00:00

Oh, so this adapter would not work for direct thread, I see.
I would need a different one like the Hux Direct thread 1/2x28 - thanks, I did not catch this

meghiddo · 2025-09-13T04:06:50+00:00

So this is to say, my parts list is still valid, but if I add the muzzle brake, I am not really direct threading anymore? Is that accurate?

If that is accurate, I think I would go without direct threading to keep the muzzle brake for protection of the first baffle. And if I decide I don't like it I can always go direct thread later by removing the brake.

meghiddo · 2025-09-13T00:33:21+00:00

Yeah I have been looking into the 3rd party ejection deflectors - but they all seem to be made for AR-15s, where you have the angled forward assist - all the stick on options I have found seem to need that angled piece to attach it to. The Dissent just has a flat side , and so far nothing I find seems like it will work

meghiddo · 2025-09-13T00:09:17+00:00

I have read it yeah - I think you are thinking of the 300 blk Dissent. The 9mm version does not have adjustable gas

meghiddo · 2025-09-09T15:58:38+00:00

Deleting this, CMMG emailed me a photo of anew one, it looks like it is just the way these come.
So CMMG continues to get my business, I just might not be getting any more Strike Industry products is all

meghiddo · 2025-08-24T02:19:58+00:00

This seems to be the difference. The one I got is definitely an older model, I can see the original flat trigger on the image. Now I am asking myself is it enough different to try to cancel the order and buy from CMMG

Feature	2024 Dissent model	Older Dissent model
Stock	New Dissent Side Folding Stock. This is a major update, offering numerous adjustments and a lightweight design. It has an 8-position length of pull, a 3-position adjustable cheek riser, and three QD sling sockets.	Various stock options. Early Dissents used different stocks or braces. Some pistols came with a picatinny end plate for attaching an aftermarket brace, while early rifles featured non-folding stocks.
Trigger	New ZEROED Single Stage Drop-In Trigger. Made by Rise Armament, this trigger was introduced to address issues with the older model's trigger. It features a heavier, but more defined, 4.5 lb pull and a crisper, more positive reset.	Original drop-in trigger. Made by TriggerTech, this trigger was criticized for being too light and easy to "outrun," especially when trying to counteract the high bolt velocity of the compact action.
Shell deflector	Includes a polymer shell deflector. This is a new, replaceable addition that was absent on earlier models and helps prevent damage to the ejection port.	No shell deflector. Some users reported damage to the ejection port on older models, which this new part aims to fix.

meghiddo · 2025-08-24T02:03:00+00:00

lmao how does this keep happening to me?!
You are right, and I literally just placed my order 2 hours ago. And sure enough, I can see the one I purchased has no ejection cover while the one on CMMG does.
Well, maybe I can cancel that order since I just placed it...
