  1. Ok so if this works why would you change barrels or have a firearm with 2 top ends? I just don't get it, I have a hard time doing it just because (so-and-so) "insert whatever name you want" does and its not a problem.

    There has to be more to it. Sorry and you can call me stupid/dumb if you want. I'm wearing my big boy panties.

  2. Well I heard this for the first time yesterday and it has me wondering. I was reading that you can shoot a 9mm round out of the 38 super barrel.

    I get it they are the same size bullet, but I also thought that they headspaced off the case mouth. I would say super loaded to 1.240 and 9 to 1.165 it wont chamber properly not long enough to reach the end of the chamber forget abut the whole 9mm case being tapered and such, are you are relying on the extractor to hold the case to the breechface for the firing pin to do its work? Wont it just push it forward and not go off? Have a extractor that's tight as hell to hold it?

    What say you?

    Thanks for any insight

  3. Wow Im on the other end of the spectrum. Wipe the gunk out add oil and keep shooting. I think the little extra gunk make the recoil feel better, maybe slows the slide down a bit, never had a dirty gun malfunction, bad ammo "high primers bad case " type stuff but never a dirt relater problem, I Agree with MarkCO "Clean the mags and stop using froglube"

  4. Shortening/lengthening the stroke certainly changes the character of the recoil impulse, along with bullet weight, slide weight, grip strength and countless other variables. If there was just one objectively perfect solution this game would be pretty boring

    So true, I viewed on slow motion video all guns recoil up and down they look flat when shot but video doesn't lie "it how much makeup you put on the freckle" that will change the feeling. I had just never heard of "Stoked" lengthening the movement, I always was shorting the stroke to change the feel.
  5. Was at a training a year or so ago and one of the manufacturers of a shock buff was there. It was communicated that the shock buff's do nothing; they are manufactured because there is a market for them.

    Again, I would be interested in the "training" glk21c was at and what manufacture made that statement. To step on a limb I'm going to call "BS"

    Well you statement is snake oil. Shooters us them and like the way they change the FEEL of the gun under recoil. So they do something just not what you want.

    I guess I'm a do nothing guy, I have 2 a Wilson first then a dawson alum and it really changes the feel of recoil. Hence the interest of wanting longer slide movement when I have shortened mine.

    I will settle for a "to each their own" Thanks for you clarification of your statement. I would be curious to know who made that statement.

  7. I've used shok-buffs ever since they came out, I like them. There are an equal # of people who don't like them.

    It's like the Chevy/Ford thing, although I think that has died down quite a bit in the last 30 years or so.

    I agree with you statement, I just wonder why the snake oil comment. Glk21C watching the topic but doesn't answer must just like stirring the pot rather then make a intelligent comment, or clarification of it.

  8. I have used the search and came up with nothing so please forgive me. If someone said "My gun has been stoked" what are they speaking about.

    I remember oh 30 years ago I was "stoked" when i got my first car but in reference to a firearm I have no idea :huh:

  9. I guess I never put much thought into it. I have a metal cabinet that stores everything. If the house catches fire grab a cold one and sit back and wait for the fireworks to begin.

    I heard that some fire departments like to know if you have large qtys of flammables. But never have I seen It personally. My garage and basement are full of flammable crap
