Just wanted to share that it seems the AAC 51t muzzle devices have made their way back into the market at normal prices. If any of you have the 51t suppressors and are short on mounts like I am, you better snatch them up! I ordered 2 for my 5.56 size barrels and a brakeout for my 6.5 Creedmoor. Bauer Precision and Joe Bon outfitters both have them along with some other places I’ve never dealt with.

Sold online. -
Will ship with everything shown. Works perfectly but does have minor holster wear on the sides and slight marking on the battery cover. It’s dang near impossible to get that battery cover off without leaving some marks. It also has a new battery. Cross posted. $450 shipped.

Has about 300-400 rounds under it. I have went back and forth with it several times but decided to stick with stock triggers. No issues with it at all and will come with everything included from the factory. Cross posted. $100 shipped.

Where do you buy your reloading supplies?
maroonandwhite replied to enfield's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
My brother in law picked up 4K small pistol primers for me yesterday. Local store with no purchase limit. $90 per 1000 so that hurts but that will take care of my USPSA habit for at least a year. Seems like Winchester is about all that’s out there but at least they are out there. -
Timney Glock Alpha Trigger
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
You are probably right. The only alternate connector I’ve ever really cared for was the - connector. This is my first dot connector though and it’s not too far off. I’m sure I can get by with it in IDPA but may look into something else once I get classified in USPSA. I’ve been shooting the slower of the two sports for years and am ready to jump into a little more speed. -
Timney Glock Alpha Trigger
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
I think for now I have decided to just learn the stock trigger better. While I’ll mainly shoot this one in matches more than I’d carry it, I’d like to have the option. This means not turning it into a full on gamer. It’s also rather eye opening to see how many national champs or high level shooters there are that won titles with a stock polished Glock trigger system. Different topic but kind of the same….many are teaching that slapping the trigger is not bad. Now that I can see my point of aim with the dot, I kind of agree. With a proper grip using plenty of power, I can just pull straight through the trigger ignoring the “wall” and that dot doesn’t move much more than if I were working the trigger in a more traditional manner. -

The reset was the one thing I was worried about. I keep seeing that come up as an issue. Thanks for the info. -
$17ish a box is the lowest I’ve seen for 9mm but that’s aluminum case. That’s probably somewhere around 40 cents a round after tax. I’d pay the upcharge for brass if it were me and save it. Good time to buy a reloading press as well. I see people dumping them for multiple reasons. MAYBE I / we will get another shot at stacking components deep.

Has anyone used one of these in any generation? I’ve built a 19X out that I will likely be using for competition and am wondering if it’s money well spent. I’ve always disliked the mushy feel you get from a minus connector or any of the other brands. With this being a different type of mechanism, I’m just wondering if it’s worth it. I know that’s super subjective but think more along the lines of competition and not SD. This gen 5 stock trigger isn’t bad, I’d just prefer a shorter, crisper break. Which is what they advertise……..

I remember that feeling. It’s like, “really??? It’s that easy?!?”

A 4 pound jug comes out to $212 out the door. Not the best price but cost per round for me is only 1 cent more than what I’m currently loading. For those that got caught with their pants down like me, well….. at least it’s a great powder.

I’ve become a big fan of Tenicor holsters lately. The Certum 3 in particular. I am currently carrying my G48 in a Certum 3 with no weapon light and will shortly be adding a G19X with a MRDS and possibly a TLR7A to the rotation. I’m trying to decide between the standard and light mounted version of the holster. I know all holsters are different for each person but am wondering if any of you have opted for a light mount holster in the AIWB position and regretted it. The obvious width difference is mainly what I am worried about as I like to wear mine around the 12:30 position rather than centerline. I’m afraid the light portion would make uncomfortable contact. I do carry a flashlight separately but have always wanted to add a weapon light into the mix if possible. I’d be perfectly content without it though. What say you?

The in-line fab roller handle is really nice as well but definitely not needed. I had one previously but get by just fine with the knob. I’ve thought about buying the riser, trays,etc but usually get by fine with the box of bullets on one side and the bucket of brass on the other.
-
I think you’ll love it. I sold the first 550 I had several years back and regretted it. I have the new 550c and won’t be getting rid of it anytime soon. It’s a good middle ground between single stage and something like the 1050. Post pics when you get it built!

Thanks. I actually saw that before and really want to go. Won’t be able to make it work unfortunately. Looks like a really great resource. -
That’s pretty sweet.

I have that “problem” with the Katana. So much functionality that I’m not using. I’m really just wanting a couple of knobs and some tubes.
-
Bumping this one back up. I’m passively looking at tube amps and am curious what you fellas are using. My eyes are on a Vox AC15 right now. Blues Junior being a close second. All I have at the moment is a Boss Katana 100. I’m mainly getting my sounds from Ableton with a few plugins. Sold all of my pedals last year and also have to itch to get more.

Barrel Change on Ruger American
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
I’ll be using this in a deer blind and brakes have never been friendly to confined spaces. I have started wearing ear protection when hunting without a suppressor but still, it can get loud. Having never fired a round of 6.5 Creedmoor in my life, I don’t really know what to expect apart from ballistics. -
Barrel Change on Ruger American
maroonandwhite replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
That’s pretty snazzy. I may look into that once I shoot it a bit and see how it does. I can’t imagine I’ll need any sort of recoil reduction from a brake but it would be cool to increase accuracy any little bit.
