    9mm tanker brake

    in Pistol Caliber Carbine

    Posted

    I have been using the Odin works 9mm Atlas break and have noticed that it really does seem to reduce the up and right muzzle rise. I tried many other brakes out there and pretty much thought they all really didn't do anything except make more noise. The Atlas 9 is tunable and has been working for me. For me, its all about getting the dot movement down to a minimum and the Atlas seems to do that well. I am sure ammo plays a big part but every little bit helps in the end. Just wish they made it in aluminum or Ti.

    Favorite optic for PCC

    Trijicon MRO love it! The MRO has lived on my Akdals (which are scope killers) just fine and now on the PCC.

    Just bought a Holsum and was not impressed with the dot at all. When looking at the dot it looks split and not a nice crisp circle. I guess you get what you pay for. 

    Firebird Tac-12 Vs. T&N 1919

    I got some of the new batch of 10rd mags about 3 weeks ago from Centerfire systems and they don't work at all. Seems that the lower part of the mag which is the plastic part is way to narrow at the shotgun shell base to let it go down and load properly. I would recommend the 5rd metal mags with the Taccom +11 bases as we have been running them also and they seem to be the best option.

    Just a bit of heads up on my experiences with the folks at Firebird Precision. I have been shooting their shotguns for almost 4 years now starting with the 3rd or 4th one they ever produced. I currently have 2 of their TAC12 A1 versions (the wife shoots one too) and really can’t say enough good things about this product. Firebird guns are USA made and use very few parts from the original Akdal shotgun. I am a GM in USPSA and compete almost completely in 3 gun now. Shooting at that level I can’t afford any kind of malfunction or problem with any of my guns. Jim’s guns flat run and a lot of his success comes from listening to the shooters that are running his guns. He adapts and adjusts with the information he receives from us. The biggest issue is not with the gun itself but rather the magazines and they have always been the weak link. When the 10 round factory mags came out it was a huge step in the right direction with the fewest problems. The feed lips do need tuning and must be watched all the time. As with any gun, especially open class race guns, you need to be paid attention to them. Hopefully a huge RO doesn't step on one at a match and bend them. FYI, the winner of the Superstition Mystery Mountain 3Gun match ran a Firebird to victory this year and was 3rd at the USPSA Multigun Nationals. Great job Nick! You can’t do that with a gun that does not run.



    Nobody’s perfect all the time and life’s challenges don’t always allow us the time to do everything we want when we want, so judging a person or business for not answering a phone call is pure nonsense. My experience has been quite the opposite - Jim and Nancy have been the easiest people to call, always providing information and advice on any issue I have ever had. They are always very professional and eager to help me in any way. For example, I called them 2 days before the Nationals, needing a part for our guns. There was no way to get me the part before the match so Nancy traveled to Albuquerque (a 4 hour round trip) and hand delivered the part to an competitor that was coming to the match who graciously met up with me to get me the part. That is above and beyond what most business do to make their customers happy.
