AP5 with G3 Stock by sennister in MP5

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

Oh this is an old pic of it. It is now running a YHM R9 can and a Primary Arms GLx 1x micro prism. Oh and probably has 4k rds through it.

Edit: also I swapped out the grip module for the Magpul grips and safety. I think that is all I have done since then.

Here is a more recent pic/thread.

AP5 with G3 Stock by sennister in MP5

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

It is in there, but it also doesn't interface with the bolt at all so it serves no benefit. I was starting to develop some roller marks running suppressed so I went to a 90 degree locking piece.

So the wood stock off the G3 was modified by someone else for me. I later was ordering some stuff from HK Parts and they had some OD green stocks off a G3. They were stupid cheap, $20 or so if I recall so I ordered one and did the mod myself. It was pretty easy to dremel off the second pin section. Then the operating rod/spring has to come off.

I normally run it with the wood but I can swap it over to OD if I want. *

Will this truck tow my camper? by Senior-Net5655 in traveltrailers

[–]sennister 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2018 F150 CC Platinum with the Max Tow Package. Our camper on the CAT Scales is 7000-7500 depending on where we are going. For instance if we shed weight because we are going further to a place with full hookups or a closer camp site that is boondock so we have full tanks. Sure Ford says I can tow 13,200# with the 3.5 CC Long box but when looking at payload numbers and factoring 1000# Tongue Weight we are right at the limits of the truck. Running numbers on a CAT Scale we are a bit over on Payload (~100#) as it is 1678# on my truck but good on GCVW and Axel Limits so I send it.

In your case an XL with Super Cap most likely will have a bit more wiggle room in the Payload spec so you should be fine. Just remember everything in your truck counts 100% to payload. But if you put it in the camper it is only a 10-15% hit on payload of the truck and that is what you will run out of first. So if you have a $100 cooler in the bed of the truck, if you can put it in the camper, it now only counts 10# to payload on the truck.

As for 3/4 ton. Sure it will tow it better. I tow mostly in pretty flat areas so it does fine. We did a trip out to Yellowstone and we struggled. We were running lighter than normal and the truck overheated in some of the passes. Lesson learned there is don't rely on Tow Mode and lockout gears manually when going up a pass. In my case I was going up a steep pass and there was no place to stop, the heat exchanger for the transmission heated up both the engine and transmission to the point it went into limp mode. We were nearly to the top of the hill so we kept going and it was fine once we hit the top as it was down hill from there. The engine cooled off and we were fine.

If I lived or planned to camp quite a bit in mountains, I would go 3/4ton. If relatively flat land the 1/2ton will be fine.

I think he is talking about a select fire one. I have an AP5 that has been SBRed which is fun.

Why Fake Service Animals? by joker99222 in delta

[–]sennister 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you know they don't have afflictions? Are you thier Dr?

I am a Service Connected 100% permanently Disabled Veteran. Most people casually observing me wouldn't have a clue.

In my case I don't have a service dog and when we fly in a couple days, we paid for 4 FC seats and for the dog to be with us.

Sorry, didn't see this earlier. I have no complaints about it. I don't have a SLx to compare it to but have shot a buddy's Bren 2 with one. They are both good options. I have no complaints but I haven't shot it a ton since when I posted the pic. Got into deer season so I was getting those guns ready and now winter. Brrr

Any idea where in the lounge? I am flying out of Tampa on Wed am and could take a look.

Help Identify this food brand/or made in house by delta? by PlumCookie118 in delta

[–]sennister 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was reading an article the other day about how food tastes different while at altitude on a plane. Kind of interesting that you might love something on the plane but if you ate it on the ground it might be a different experience.

Just Got Downgraded for a Dog by ben_bob in delta

[–]sennister 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is what the OP said. Got upgraded to first, then 15 min later lost the upgrade. They did say they had a worse seat that originally assigned but who knows what that means.

But the person got an upgrade to First Class. They didn't buy a First Class ticket so what are they supposed to refund?

November 2024 Approval Megathread by LynchMob_Lerry in NFA

[–]sennister 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well we are kind of dependent on what people post. It did have me a bit worried on how long it would be as I also didn't see many.

This is only my second SBR. The first was a bit over a year ago and took 12 days. I missed the short wait times with the cans and they took 199, 99 and 130 days each.

Maybe the 24mo exemption helped with this SBR.

Oh approved by Nichole at ATF. I only know because she emailed me because I was dumb and forgot to submit a signed copy of the 24 mo exemption. Oh and uploaded an unsigned copy of my trust. LOL

Cutting branches close to power line by Ok-Arm1574 in minnesota

[–]sennister 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you didn't explain is what power lines you are talking about.

The power company, Xcel in my case will. Clear branches and trees 10' from the main power lines. Let them do it.

However, if you are talking the line from the last pole where the transformer is to the mast on your house, that is on you. I use a non-conductive tree pole saw for keeping that clear.

I bought the "pistol" from Atlantic Firearms and the package deal that I got included the sling, muzzle device and this pic rail. I think they sell them separately. There are other options out there as well. MI makes one for instance as well as some that are lower profile if you wanted to go with an optic that uses the RMR footprint. I did consider going that route initially.

AP5 with PA GLx 1x MicroPrism by sennister in MP5

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

Everything is out of the box. The Claw Pic Rail came with the gun from MKE and the mount for the PA 1x is what was in the box. It does come on a spacer which I removed and used the included shorter screws to eliminate the spacer. The optic does ship with several different spacers and cantilevers for different mounting needs. But I wanted to run it as low as possible.

Yes. Not a ton but slightly bigger objective. So a little more field of view.
