  1. I recently purchased Snappy's.  So far so good I guess.  A lot of these guys seem to use Star Brass. 

    I had B's and I think they were just OK.  The top of the shell wasn't crimped on the B's.  They have a rolled edge with a white cardboard center.  I didn't even think about checking the depth on their rubberized primers.  Now I'm going to check both..

  2. Looks like you and I are in the same batch.  Pretty soon I'm thinking.

  3. Has anyone received their parts back from Wright that were sent in by the cut off date?  I'm waiting for a few components to come back.  Based on previous history my estimation is anywhere between now and the next 4 weeks.

    Mine were in "NP3 in process" as of 10/29 I believe.

    A small batch was shipped out in the tail end of December.

    I have 2 on order with no updates. Got the mounts already in.

    I'm assuming that December batch went to pre orders.

    Actually not only did they throw the DD AR with the Aimpoint T-1 out of a helicopter from a couple of hundred feet twice (a do over was called for since their primary camera wasn't running to catch the first drop) they also blew up a car with the DD AR hanging from the rear view mirror during their thorough torture test. The tortured T-1/DD AR combo held zero until the helicopter drops, and I suspect the reason why it lost zero from the 1st and/or 2nd helicopter drop is because the AR probably landed muzzle first and that impact affected the barrel or the barrel to upper interface and wasn't actually an issue with the T-1. 

    I have several T-1s, T-2s, and a H-2.  The only thing I've been able to find out about the difference between the T-1/H-1 and T-2/H-2 is Aimpoint claims less parallax error with the later T-2/H-2 version. I've also noted that the red dot is brighter on the highest setting on the T-2/H-2 vs. the T-1.

    That Daniel Defense AR is on display in the Daniel Defense lobby. Aimpoint asked for the T-1 and DD refused to hand it over, preferring to keep it on display with their torture tested AR.

    I have more faith in Aimpoint than any other brand RDS optic.

    I've seen that episode a couple times.  That DD and the Aimpoint got pounded.  Aimpoints are tougher than Chuck Norris's doo doo.

    New Duty RDS. For a rifle, but you can see they are going to a flush adjustment and keypad like from the ACRO P-2. Looks like it can take a T-2 low mount?

     

     

    Speaking of the Acro P-2, anyone seen one available lately?  I don't think I've seen them in stock since the summer.  That was Brownell's and the price wasn't great.

  7. While it does make loading a bit smoother/easier, I decided to forgo it for the FFT bolt release button.  I basically gave up some loading ease for cosmetics. 

    To my delight the spring didn't hang up on the receiver.  I thought it was going to be a tight fit but everything worked well.  I cycled dummy rounds through it 2x - loaded the mag tube full each time.  No malfunctions.

  8. Surefire M600 Ultra Custom Light Build With IWC Back Bone Body and Z61 Tail cap Like New.

    I put this light build together a while back.  It was mounted but never used during live fire.  Minus a few storage handling marks and being mounted once it's essentially new.  The fasteners have never been used.  It sports the Surefire M600 Ultra Light Head KE1-B, IWC Thorntail 600 Backbone Light Body and Surefire Z61 clicky tail cap.  This will fit perfect on any scout mounting system.  It especially fits like a glove on the IWC Benelli M4 Scout light/QD sling mount.

    The SF KE1-B gives you 1000 Lumens

    The Backbone body gives you lighter weight than the SF Scout body and offers more mounting positions.

    The SF Z61 tail cap has no shroud which helps mitigate finger jam on the 12 gauge platform.

    If you put these components together yourself this is what the cost would be:

    SF KE1-B Head: $206

    IWC Backbone 600 Body: $75

    SF Z61 Tail Cap: $33.99

    Total: $314.99

    Selling for $250.00 shipped priority with tracking.  PP Friends and Fam or you pay the fee, Venmo and US Postal Money Order accepted.

    Pardon the dust in the pics...

  9. For sale J-Kenny 2 piece shell latch.  This was test fit in my M4 and functioned as it should.  The spring did not bind in the receiver hole, everything worked smoothly.  Not used with live fire at all.  Basically new.  The latch comes with button-spring and M4 screw. (you will reuse your existing shell latch spring and button, per J-Kenny)  This latch is CNC machined and the threaded post for the button is all one piece with the latch.  It's not pressed in like the Benelli OEM latch.  This makes it uber strong and the post/shaft is never going to separate or break off the shell latch.

    With this shell latch you need a button that uses a M4 screw/bolt.  I found the Toni System button and it fits seamlessly.  This may be the same button that Benelli is using in their new fancy M4's that have started popping up.  This button is made in Italy by Toni System and comes with it's own M4 screw/bolt.

    $135.00 shipped.  PP Friends and Fam or Venmo...  I'll also accept postal money order as well.

  10. If you buy a Surefire (not pro), Modlight or Cloud Rein they will have the "scout" interface.  You can also use after market light bodies that have a scout mount.  IWC, Arisaka I think, maybe others.  Your IWC light mount should already have the mounting screws I believe.

    The 11703 I just got was the exact same story.  Reasonable heat resulted in a little movement, lots of heat and it would start to turn and then bind up.  Eventually came off and the threads looked like a candy apple.

    This exactly.
