    365x macro

    I really like my X-Macro, i just added a Holosun 507k to it, for a carry sized pistol it shoots surprisingly small groups, the trigger is very good out of the box, does the compensated slide make a difference, maybe. Before adding the Holosun I used a G43 pocket holster for it, I am in the market for a leather pocket holster cut for the red dot now
  2. so I shot a VR80 with a Grizzly Gunworks Defcon brake, and I ordered one, when it finally comes in, I will give a range report
  3. I have a love hate relationship with my GSG1911, it’s stupid fun to shoot, with Taylor Tactical guts in the mags they hold 16 rounds, a McFadden Loader makes loading a breeze, now the downsides, it’s very cheaply made, all mim of the lowest quality (Sig 1911-22 are made by GSG and are no better), reliability is 90%, you have to be extremely careful on support hand placement, and I experience light strikes, on rounds 2-3, a new firing pin may solve that, and it makes no difference if the mags are stock or hold 16, accuracy is ok given the ammo available, I own a Infinity 9/40 pistol, and a highly tuned STI 9, the GSG trigger sucks, the stock sights suck, every time you change ammo brand the poi shifts significantly requiring a front sight change which are included, I added the GSG scope mount with a Razor 3 MOA dot(dot is too small) that at least the in the acceptable range.
  4. I really like your posts, but most importantly, I pray you go home everyday.
  5. Peltor EEP100 or TEP100 is what I highly recommend, with Skull Screw tips 30db noise reduction.
  6. I use a Cabelas separator, I cut the bottom off so the media goes right back into the bucket, if it breaks I will replace it with another.
  7. I highly recommend an auto progressive press, 650/750. I have been at the range and seen 3 pistols blow up, 2 1911s, and a Glock, all three had the same thing in common, all rounds loaded on a 550, auto progressive almost eliminates the possibility of no charge/double charge, and production rate is much higher.
  8. I use the EGW/Lee undersize die for 40 loading for my Infinity, I also bulge bust every single piece of 40 brass because I only use range brass, on the plus side I have never had a ammo related issue, my ammo is accurate, and no case gauging, downside is time bulge busting.
  9. I load 180s at 1.200 for my Infinity
  10. Infinity 9/40 is my fun gun, and I have been carrying a g43, but I might switch to a p365
  11. I owned my DQ, went to the safe area, put my gear away, and went back to help my squad run the pad and reset, I have also had to DQ someone at a PRS match, lets just say his character/ego made him look really bad.
  12. IMHO Uber clean brass is over rated, especially in the precision rifle game, I have cleaned brass every way possible, now all I do is tumble in walnut media, clean shinning brass does not reload to better ammo, but is more time consuming ammo, less time reloading means more time shooting.
  13. I doubt you could have them made cheaper https://www.midwestgunworks.com/page/mgwi/prod/60691
  14. I have read the book, watched the 1984 version countless times, so when the new version was finally released on HBO Max I was eager to see it. ***Spoiler*** I had no idea this was part 1, so part 2 and possibly part 3 are coming.
  15. I have a F12, its a nice easy to maintain shooter, but mine has been less than reliable with what little ammo that is available after 500 rounds. 1 issue is my barrel was sheering off the edge of the shell, Typhoon sent me a video of taking a file to take off the sharp edge off, that 100 % fixed that issue 2 with Win AA 1350fps shells it is almost perfect, with any other brand, especially those 1200fps or less its a single shot, I did trim off the recoil spring 2 full coils, that helped but its still not perfect 3 it recoils significant harder than my Benelli/HK M1 and Benelli M2, I just changed the butt stock to a Magpul MOE, and a Limbsaver recoil pad is in bound 4 keeping it clean, especially the gas ports is required 5 I simply don't trust it enough to use it in a match yet, my Infinity pistol took 3000 rounds for me to trust it, after 500 shells of varying brands its getting there things I like are the style, the Holosun 510 on top of it, RIA mags are GTG, and cheaper than Typhoon brand mags
  16. So no one has a F12 with a brake on it
  17. I would like some firsthand experience from people who actually shoot a braked F12, which brake did you go with, likes and dislikes please.
  18. certainly makes cleaning easier if you do that, and is cool to look at, neither of my custom precision sticks have it
  19. I have had my HK M1 for a few decades, and I built a M2 from pieces mostly off eGay, shoulder it hard in the shoulder pocket, and you won't notice the recoil with 1100 fps ammo. Also keep the recoil tube inside the stock clean and well lubed with oil, it may take heat to break it loose from the receiver and heat to break the threaded end cap loose to clean everything.
  20. The old non uniform trim length, it doesn't matter accuracy wise. I have used my Giraud for 10 years, it indexes off the shoulder, so consistent trim lengths are achieved by consistent bumping of the shoulder, I set my trim length .010 from end of chamber, my 308 trim length is 2.025, 223/556 is 1.765, stop worrying about trim length, its not what causing your misses.
  21. My employer decided to take away vacation, and replace it with PTO(paid time off), instead of taking our earned vacation for the year, and filling up the PTO bank which is earned monthly, my Airline cut me a check for 5 weeks pay, my SVI 9/40 sight tracker was basically free, so for me the buy was totally worth it.
  22. I fix 737s for a living, while I am not on graves anymore(24years of seniority) Streamlight flashlights rule the roost in my profession, we all have a few of there rechargeables for walk around inspections, my TLR2 is old, it still works great though.
  23. I have watched season 1 on NF, its ok, I like that each episode is its own, like NCIS, I will continue watching it at work.
