  1. Sweet gun. Too bad the seller has a small pee pee
  2. i have gen 5 timney trigger
  3. got a New G17 G5 but im up in Thompsons Station, TN
  4. I mean, id still shoot it :). I like some FDE and other earth tones on my guns, but for H&K, i just like plain black.
  5. I picked up a department G36K which had an awful hydro dip on the entire gun. I don’t think they even broke the gun down and just dipped it in one assembly. Here are some before and after pics. All parts were restored with the exception to the folding stock. They cut the stock and spliced it to shorten it so it was trash. It’s definitely seen some use and the natural sheen on the black polymer has worn off but it still functions perfectly. You can also see the difference in the sheen between my other G36K which is in like new condition. Just waiting on. New mechanical rear sight to finish it up.
  6. Don't cerakote the buffer tube. Cerakote isn't thick and holds up well, but but it will eventually develop wear marks.
  7. I have a new one. send me a message if you're still looking
  8. Thanks. yeah i picked up some new NATO 100 nutsacks (the reinforced sides) off GB and paid like $80 (no links) Having to link up my own 556 right now cuz linked 556 is so expensive.
  9. Factory M249S have been discontinued for quite some time. The ones on GB are fetching 10K or more. The one Im building is a post sample.
  10. Still working on getting the rest of the weldment pieces in for the receiver but hopefully I can have this up and running by the end of the year.
  11. haven't shot it yet. I'll try to take some pics with and without the weights
  12. Picked up these two beauties for my personal collection. the steel match weight (11oz) adds a nice balance to the full frame pistol
  13. Sig is going to be releasing the P365XL. I was thinking about picking up a P365 but I think I may wait and get the xl. I like that it has the RMR cutout already on the slide. Sig P365xl
  14. Ever since i saw the movie No country for old men, i wanted a suppressed shotgun. I started off with a factory Rem 870 express and had Sterling Arsenal Works do the barrel chop, choke adapter threading and Vang Comp sight system upgrades. They cerakoted it and did a little custom bolt fluting. Its a blast to shoot with the Salvo 12 and really helps manage the recoil/kick. Not as fun to shoot without the silencer on a 12" barrel (left bruises on my shoulder). Anyways, here a little video of the shotty YouTube Video
  15. the 507C is the dual reticle feature so you can switch between the dot or reticle. I feel like i can pickup the retical much faster.
  16. Try a Holosun 507C. I have one on my pistol and love it. I actually like shooting with it better than my RMR. Great features and cost less, and has same footprint as the RMR so you can run it on the same slide.
  17. Yeah I’m pretty sure I was the first to get em in Nashville. Possibly in TN. Since it uses the glock internals and basically the same dimensions it’s familiar feel of shooting a glock but better. You do get a higher grip on it since it has the cutouts so maybe that’s why it feels softer. I’m looking forward to getting the longer slides and trying it out in those setups. I may shoot over to Owl Hollow tomorrow if anybody wants to join and check it out.
  18. Thoughts on the new ZRODelta Modulus pistols? I ordered these back in November and just got them in this month. I got to take it out to the range for the first time last week and very pleased with the way it shoots. The all metal construction gives it a nice balanced fee. It’s solid and feels softer shooting than a factory G19. The key feature is its modular construction. Dust cover, grip sections, slide and mag wells can be changed out. It uses Glock internals (gen 3 trigger system). Slide has red dot cut out already and can use the different adaptor plates for your specific red dot. This is in the compact setup but the duty and race versions will be available later. So far I really like it and have gotten positive feedback from those who have put their hands on one.
  19. anybody had a animal headdress that i could borrow for a night?  Got an event that I'm going to and want to wear it.  Something like a wolf, mountain lion, bear.  i know its a long shot, but thought i would check.   Willing to pay a little or do some cerakote work in exchange.  Please message me if anyone has something cool.   Thanks
  20. Not sure if that was a question but yes. That's what I did. You have to understand that the owner purchased this with the understanding that the slide was damaged and that he wasn't going to dump money into getting it fixed. I offered to try to make it look better at no cost and they took me up on the offer. After looking at the damage I told them there wasn't much I could do and the only other option would be to try to have the surface milled down but they would have had to remove a lot of metal. He told me whatever I do would be an improvement so go for it. From my experience, getting the slide machined is too expensive. I've had slides milled before and even machines shops that do this type of work regularly and have CNC programs already in place, the cost wouldn't be worth it. You could buy a new/used stripped g17 slide for less money if he wanted this to Be back to original state.
  21. I don't know for sure what happened. Just going off what the previous owners told me. Yeah, if I had to guess, the slide was probably rusted pretty bad and the holes are from rust pits. I agree that media blasting a healthy slide wouldn't do that kind of damage. The indents would be more uniform. I just used JB cold weld compound. Let it cure and sand it down.
  22.   yes.  it had problems going into battery but did not really feel sticky. The frame looks okay.  The stripper on the slide is pitted a little and not smooth but wouldn't think that would be the issue.  I cleaned up the inside channels on the slide and when i rack it back and forth it feels nice and smooth.  Will find out tomorrow how she shoots.
  23. Well, here is an update on the G17... http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/88355-g17-read-disclamer/ BEFORE SURGERY [url=http://s19.photobucket.com/user/sigbrown1297/media/WP_20150904_12_28_14_Pro_zpse6962b2a.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s19.photobucket.com/user/sigbrown1297/media/WP_20150904_12_28_03_Pro_zpsea6a7909.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s19.photobucket.com/user/sigbrown1297/media/WP_20150904_12_27_49_Pro_zps101e6705.jpg.html][/URL] MEDIA BLASTED THE FINISH. REVEALED ALL OF THE DAMAGE "MOON CRATERS" IN THE SLIDE. ALL OF THE BLACK YOU SEE IS WHERE I HAD TO FILL IN. ONLY WAY TO FIX THE AREAS AROUND THE SERRATIONS WAS TO FILL IT IN COMPLETELY. SO NO MORE SERRATIONS. [url=http://s19.photobucket.com/user/sigbrown1297/media/WP_20150905_18_51_02_Pro_zps3229fb1d.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s19.photobucket.com/user/sigbrown1297/media/WP_20150905_18_51_07_Pro_zps5518b44a.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s19.photobucket.com/user/sigbrown1297/media/WP_20150905_18_51_14_Pro_zpsebb6289e.jpg.html][/URL] AFTER SURGERY. THE FILL INS AROUND THE SERRATIONS ARE NOT PERFECT. PROBABLY COULD HAVE USED ANOTHER ROUND OF FILL/SANDING, BUT ITS DEFINITELY AN IMPROVEMENT FROM BEFORE. PLAN ON TAKING IT OUT TOMORROW TO SEE IF IT WILL SPIT OUT 115GR WITHOUT ISSUES. THEN BACK TO ITS OWNER.
