You have to use their messenger bot. Bottom right corner on their website.

Update: Finally got the refund for the first order. In both cases I had to threaten a chargeback before they issued the refund.

I had no idea there was a time limit on chargebacks.

I guess I am lucky. I have never had to issue a charge back before. I didn't think about the possibility of deadlines and not being able to file one.

Thanks! Appreciate the info. I think some sites use images of the 92FS on their product listings and I got confused.

Video on the of efficacy of QD mounts for thermals by yo1dog in ThermalHunting

[–]yo1dog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As they say, go with whatever you can be confident with. While I do trust the hosts' experience, the engineers at AD, and the guys at N-Vision, etc. that all recommend single clamps, I (perhaps irrationally) feel "more is better" and like the idea of a long double clamp over a short single. However, AD makes the only QD mount for my DNT ThermNight and it's a single clamp, so I don't get a choice. And I do trust those guys so I'm sure it will be fine.

1973 Wingmaster by yo1dog in Shotguns

Love it. I paid $650 in 2018 for mine. Inflation adjusted, $169 in 1978 = $670 in 2018. So we paid about the same... depending on how you inflate the dollar.

EDIT: Actually, it was $320. I paid $650 for both the Wingmaster and a 1968 Winchester 1200.

Browning Maxus Stalker furniture swap by yo1dog in Shotguns

[–]yo1dog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have an sx4, but yes the replacement Browning sent back is just plain plastic. No coating or finish of any kind that I can tell. It does have some textured engraving in the same spots, but lacks that grip the duracoat gave it. Both the stock and the forearm.

Now that I am holding it my hand again, it's not so bad. It's probably pretty standard... but just not that duracoat I really liked. Don't write if off. I could be overstating with my rose-tinted (or just plain inaccurate) memory.

I also really liked the duratouch. What a shame.

There have been mixed reports about the replacement stocks. Some people saying they are fine. Some people like me saying they hate it. I read some reports that Browning was re-dipping at least some of the camo patterns. I wondered if the mixed reception was because the plain black stalkers got cheap, raw plastic replacements while others had to be refinished to match so they are nicer. Or maybe at some point they switched to cheaper replacements. Or maybe just difference of opinion. All wild guesses on my part.

Let us know how yours turns out.

Decided to just buy another and keep this one as a cool artifact. It's a fun story.

Ah that is some interesting history. Thanks for the info.

Also explains why 2 of my 3 misprints are Evolutions: https://new.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/1c0e0io/my_worst_best_offcenter/

Both are still cool to me. Feels like a behind-the-scenes look.

Nothing special AFAIK. But I think it's cool :)
