  1. my normal routine is laundry detergent and lemishine. I found that better than the FART juice
  2. the only thing changed with the coolfire kit is the barrel and recoil spring. so I think it was just coincidence that I noticed the problem at the same time.
  3. Hahaha, cleaning hahahahaha I've compared the trigger springs to my other 7 Shadows and Shadow 2s, and then swapped in a new spring, even though it appeared to be the same resistance. Playing with the gun this morning it did it again. I'm thinking maybe something has worn funny on the trigger bar or disco. Gonna try swapping them out and seeing what's what.
  4. Lol, I meant, I wonder what Brass Juice is made of. I'm guessing it's likely an existing product simply rebranded and repackaged. Also, I was informed by my friend up a few threads, that you can reuse the solution a couple times, just wondering who does that? How many times can you do it?
  5. there is good spring pressure. All parts are factory parts, upgrades, installed at the factory. No springs have been tweaked to be weaker either. Well, other than lighter recoil and hammer springs replaced by lighter factory ones. It's very strange, and of course now, in the last day or so it's not happening. I spent an hour trying to get video of it. Sigh.
  6. thanks dude! will give it a try this week along with the spiffy new dryer!
  7. you may encounter a problem decapping if they sit for too long after wet tumbling them. The primers can corrode and stick, resulting in either pull backs or ringers. It's best to dry them in an oven, in hot sun, or in a dehydrator.
  8. yeah sorry, slipping off early, if pulled fast with a bit of side pressure on the trigger. Trigger bar springs are good, screw is tight. It's happening soon enough that it doesn't catch on half cock, hammer drops all the way, but not hard enough to set off a round, or the coolfire
  9. I recently received a coolfire kit for Shadow 2s and I installed it in my match gun to play with at home. In playing around, I discovered if I pulled the trigger just right in DA, the disco slips off the trigger bar. Any idea why? I threw the regular barrel back in and it still does it. This is a new bug to me, couldn't find that issue in searching the forum, but might not have used the right keywords, any ideas?
  10. delete all the old files, only have the current, needed, upgrade files on the card.
  11. okay, now I get it, a picture is worth a thousand words lol
  12. yeah still not getting it. it must be a specific tray you're talking about?
  13. I am not getting this pvc pipe thing on the trays, can you post a pic?
  14. wow, I can't believe it was on like that. I'd have measured the shaft to see if it was out of spec
  15. was just going to type in use a gear puller. it shouldn't damage it if you use it right. and you'll probably be surprised at how easy it makes it come off. I had the opposite problem with my old sprocket and the new one, they would slide all over the place. I had to use loctite to keep them from doing that.

    Shadow 2 malfunction

    I have not heard of the recess being machined too deep, interesting. A simple fix would be a shim under the existing spring I suppose.
  17. I am a heavy user and love the buffers, after seeing guns at the factory that they tested with and without the buffer, I'll keep using them, especially since I use an 8 or 9lb recoil spring and reduced hammer spring. Saves a ton of metal on metal smashing. I replace them when they get cut through. most last over 10,000 rounds, some even longer.
  18. My measure randomly decides to do this fast fill thing, where it only rotates to the fill position for a split second. It has also refused to throw powder a a few dozen times too. Looks like the new measure body doesn't have that shear shelf the first ones did.
  19. ah I thought you had the electric one
