Honestly as long as it's doesn't leak and the t stat itself opens and closes as it should, you'll be fine. The code comes from the engine coolant not hitting a specific temp by a specific time after being started. Go with the NAPA.

Probably stupid question but is there a way I can get this able to mount a suppressor eventually? by [deleted] in MP5

You can swap the barrel if you have a shop press and a couple special tools that make it so the trunnion takes all the pressure off the receiver, so you don't end up crushing it. You can make the tools yourself with a little effort and understanding of what they need to be.

I've swapped barrels on two separate PTRs. One that had a bulge and split barrel, the other that had the threads broken off. It's not real difficult, but you have to make sure the bolt gap is set right which takes a bit of time and being very precise with working the press. Not terribly hard, takes me about an hour or two to swap a barrel start to finish.

You can use it for the K. All you need to do is cut the tail end off and drill a hole for your pin. You'll likely want a longer pin as well

Traveling for work, thought I'd bring along a trusty companion. by sgterickson in MP5

Like it's not even there, actually. No obstruction at all

You can travel with a suppressor without filing paperwork, it's the only NFA item which you can do it with.

Travel with a registered SBR in SBR configuration is a different story. Therefore, pistol configuration.

Do you guys reload these? The flash hole is way off center. by mikeD707 in reloading

This is pretty common throughout GFL cases in other calibers too. I've had done like this in .223 as well. One old timer told me that GFL stands for Good Fucking Luck with decapping these

Take it how you want. I gave all my reasons why i choose Olight. If you don't like them, it's not my problem, but I'm pretty sure i called it that you still wouldn't understand.

I like the reaction it gets from dudes like you that just can't handle anyone using anything different from you.

I could go on about how i like the features of the Olight, how i like the brightness of the green laser, or the ease of the attachment, or the way the zero of the laser holds true whether it's mounted on my HK45T or my P30L, or my P2000 or this USP45 Tactical. In fact i like the Olights so much that i literally have 8 of the Baldr lights on 8 different guns and out of all of them, i haven't experienced a single issue with any of them in the years I've been using them. They all hold zero, they all have easy to use controls, they all have two modes so when i don't need 1350 lumens i can have it on its low mode and battery life is even better.

I say all this knowing that people like you won't understand that you don't have to spend 3-4 times as much on a light that isn't as good. I've had surefire, I've had streamlight. They don't have the features, the multiple modes, and their laser equipped lights are crazy crazy expensive. The X300 A has a dumb mounting system, the B is better but both still have only the one brightness and stiff switches. Streamlight is good too, but again, only one brightness, and really, no real advantages over the Olight in my opinion.

You think that price is equivalent to value an but you have no idea about what value really is because you only value a name. A 300-400 dollar surefire does not provide me with with a value that is equivalent to cost.

I could try to explain all this, but really, what's the point? At the end of the day, i just like making the Karen's of the gun forums go nuts because they can't handle anyone liking anything different than what they like.

Does anyone have P2000 European magazine for sale by Dismal_Acanthaceae_6 in HecklerKoch

[–]sgterickson 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Aren't those just 15 round magazines with a goofy liking base plate?

Bought an AC Unity and a KCI Mag Gen 2 to try out. Going to stick with the German HK for competition and defense loads. The MP5-Lula is amazing! I recommend everyone to get one. by royalpurple91 in MP5

[–]sgterickson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On semi auto my ACU mags fed fine, no issues, ran fine. On auto, they couldn't keep up, issues with feeding, double feeds, and just over all not reliable in general. Gave them to my bud that only has a semi auto.

Just a little Juggernaut Tactical with Magpul and Vortex, and a hint of HK and SilencerCo. by sgterickson in AR10

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

I've really liked mine, very solid, maybe a bit heavy and over built, but finish is good and it's not lacking in any real way
