shippj Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 What did you use for a mount for the TRS-25? I heard the mounts that came with them are not that good. I might try that route, not sure yet. Had hopes for the EO-Tech, but think I need to go a different route. Im going to check into seeing if they will fix it though, its pretty old (12 years old or so). On another note, what do most of you use for mag pouches? I was looking at 308 mag holders, but maybe a dump pouch is more the way to go? I know T&N make a mag pouch, maybe just go with theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmil Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 http://www.amazon.com/UTG-Medium-Profile-Riser-Mount/dp/B015ZLOF6II Mounted on that. I have a 5.11 thigh rig with 2 high speed gear hcm tacos. Haven't had a chance to test it much but seems like it will do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmiller Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hmmm, I just slapped an Aimpoint T1 on mine, hope it doesn't break it. I am betting you will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctay Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Crap. I have an eotech 512 sitting on mine right now and I love it. Only has about 150 shells through the shotgun though and I'm heading up to hard as hell. Hate for it to die in a match. Guess I'll sight in an extra cmore and bring that too. Eotech even has a picture of a 512 on a shotgun on their site! Ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shippj Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hope it works for you, maybe I had a Friday model. Mine was old and had had a lot of miles on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shippj Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Here are some videos testing with different ammo. This first one was Winchester super-X. I would never run this is a match but was just testing it. This one is my neighbor/shooting partner running Winchester AA. Lots of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul-the new guy Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) I have had mine like 6 months and have maybe 50 rounds on it :-( Edited December 11, 2015 by Paul-the new guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctay Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Brought mine to the hard as hell match this last weekend. Gun ran great but had lots of trouble with magazines. Easy spent 250+ seconds just trying to get it to load the first rounds. I'm spending my time right now learning to tune these things to feed so I don't have that pleasure again. Upside, after it feed the first two shells or so it was great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmil Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 What are you learning about the mags? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctay Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 That the feed lips need tuning to be consistent. There are some YouTube videos by Jim Lambert that go over the mags and I've found some posts on other forums from tooth and nail that have helped too. Still not there though.

Neomet Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Merry Christmas! All credit to Jim for putting this out there. This is part of his series on building his 15 round mags but the tuning is essential no matter what you are using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmil Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Thanks just checked out some of the videos. Lots of good info there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sb3 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 My eotech xps 2 also fell victim to the 1919. I went to a vortex venom that I won last year and have had 0 issues with it. Vortex also has great warranty service so I'm a little more comfortable with it. Loved the eotech reticle though and really miss it. For me, it seemed much faster on the shotgun.

ctay Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 I switched over from my eotech to a cmore and have actually really liked it. The smaller "bulk" around the glass seems to help on clays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk I have been testing the J point Circle Dot reticle (same reticle as Eotech) So far I really like it. I also am testing one on my pistol, very nice ! On the mag tuning, - there is no reason/need to remove the Last round bolt hold open from the mags, a properly tuned mag runs just fine with it left intact http://www.jprifles.com/cart_pix/ph/3830.jpg Edited December 11, 2015 by toothandnail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racesnake Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Got my MKA from T&N Monday. These folks are super to deal with. Took it to the range and put 2 boxes of 1 1/8 X 1200 through it with no hiccups. Next shot a box of WallyWorld Federals and had one stovepipe. Then tried 5 Remy managed recoils and had one stovepipe. Next was 10Fiocchi 7/8ozX1300 with no problems. Went back to the Remy MRs and shot 15 clean. Only gripe I have is it takes a considerable amount of effort to push the button to drop a mag. Other than that I'm real happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
