    AR muzzle device with the least blast to shooter

    I’ve noticed on eBay lately there are sellers selling “fuel filters” that are %100 crappy aluminum silencers. Search fuel filter 1/2-28. Now, if you bought one and discarded the guts and the end cap you’d have a nice bloop tube. However I’m not sure you’d want to buy one at all.

    Ever had a gun whisper to you?

    22lr quit speaking to me when I started reloading. So, if you want to shush the voices on that gun you could always spend like 10k$ on a reloading room setup lol. Of course the voices will still be there, and loud.....

    Best price genuine glock mags?

    WHen you hold the ets and Glock side by side the ets just seems flimsy and cheap. Maybe not really a deserving assessment, but just impressions.

    Best price genuine glock mags?

    Brownells has mags on sale now. I’m looking at the new factory 24rd, but I may try the magpul also. Something in that range would be great in the pcc, the 31 is a tad long and the 17 is a tad short. 3 pack of pmag 21’s is 45$

    Lol 200th anniversary of what? The company has no relation to anything 200 years ago. They just use the name.

    Why all the craze of single stacks ?

    Fact: the vast majority of people who CCW will never use their weapon in defensive situation. So, we are going to quite a bit of inconvenience daily to CCW for, in most cases, no reason. Heck, most police won’t even use their weapon in service. So, a 8rd single stack holds 8 more rnds than...

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    The phone tech could have offered a take down thingy spring, but he seemed satisfied that my assessment of its springiness was adequate. If it was loose like an old wizard sleeve I’d notice something out of ordinary. However if it’s lost 20% of its spring I might not detect that. In the...

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    I dislike shipping them back in for several reasons. In fact the few time she I’ve done it, the issues were never resolved at all. So, that’s a last resort for me. I did call them, and they weren’t totally useless, but almost. Actually I take that back, they were polite and available, but...

    But what if they can’t reproduce the problem?

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    Barrel looks perfect, all other parts as well, although I haven’t fully torn down yet. I guess that’s the next stop although I’m tempted to try a metal guide rod, or nothing and see if it happens again.

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    I have never removed any parts from the frame at all, and the slide lock is installed in correct orientation. The spring appears to be intact and is in fact raising the slide lock like I’d expect it to, so if it’s broken it it’s way down inside and apparently not affecting the function that I...

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    Thanks for that, good reference. I wonder if I have the new or old design take down spring?

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    Well I hadn’t thought if that, so I tried it. They were easy to get ahold of, and tried to help, but ultimately were no help. Said they had heard of it before but didn’t offer any info on what solved it. Since the mating metal parts seem to be in good shape, I’m guessing it has to do with the...

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    Could the plastic recoil spring post (correct term?) be somehow pushing the slide lock down? The end looks fine, doesn’t show any damage or wear

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    Also this gun has a few thousand through it and it’s not carried much, it has a pretty easy life. Kept clean and dry, lives in the safe unless taken to the range mostly.

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    Lol okay okay I said hammer because I think striker sounds silly and yes, in match terminology everything is a hammer. In fact, in my LIFE everything is a hammer, except for a chisel, which is a screwdriver. Okay I grabbed it and checked the spring, it’s intact and looks to be working fine...

    Glock disassembled itself at the range

    never had this happen, was shooting and made a mistake on my run, so went to clear the gun. I dropped the mag, racked the slide to eject the live one and dry fired it at the ground. When the hammer fell the entire slide flew off the end of the frame! Plop, complete on the ground. I picked it...

    Help with ‘disabling’ two guns

    It’s easy to take them on the plane btw. Just need a locking case and declare them.
