You ever feel like that tail hook brace doesn’t give you a proper shoulder mount? Thinking about getting one for a future SP5 build

#

If it feels fine for 7.62x39, it should be fine for 9mm, even if it’s super safe

For a first revolver being mindful of a budget is a Taurus 608 w/ red dot + 150 rds of 38 for 625 a good start?

#

Oh yeah I was sent pictures

My other option is a S&W 686-6 for 830. Nothing included, just gun and case.

#

PSA was running a bunch of sales a while back on the 686 6 inch model. I ended up picking one up for like $650 and have seen them around that price various times since

@round sentinel I lied I changed my mind no grom. Im getting a ktm duke

Yknow. That’s a reasonable pick too

proven hearth
# round sentinel Yknow. That’s a reasonable pick too

I think it'll be a bit better suited for the roads around the dfw area, as much as i like the grom i think itd struggle on some of them. Found a 2018 with 2.1k miles for 3.2k which is the same price as the grom i found.

#

I almost bought a KLX300 a few weeks away. I still am kicking myself for not buying it. Would have been the perfect bike for me

proven hearth
# proven badger Quite the change

Yeah i realize that, my thing about it is, i just want a decent bike for trekking around the city with. Being able to have the power to get up and go with traffic speeds on some of these roads has made me realize that a grom might not be as well suited for what im wanting right now. Just a bit more versatile, i can actually use this to get on the highway to take a exit a mile or two instead of having to take all back roads like i would on a grom.

#

Im only gonna get the 390, i dont need a whole lot of power for what i want. Just enough to feel content on some of these 55mph roads

This clueless dude was going to sell me his KLX300 for $3500 and he was throwing in a nice helment, alpinestar mx boots, a loading ramp, and an unused harley riding jacket with the tags on it. Bike had 220 miles. It didn't start so I ran up to autozone and bought a lithium battery for it, installed it. Bike started right up and I road it around the block with no riding experience. Something in my gut said don't buy it, don't buy a bike.

#

It was a 2023

proven hearth
#

3500 is a good deal

proven badger
#

I know man, I'm actually beating myself over it

#

But the timing was kind of fucked too, I had so much going on in my personal life and was about to leave for a trip, I just felt overwhelmed and backed out like an idiot

#

I was watching marketplace for months before that

proven hearth
#

What's a good center stand to get? Ive never owned one. Also didnt lube the chain like i probably shouldve on my old magna

proven badger
#

I might snag a honda XR150L to fuck around on because I can get one for dirt cheap. It's a powerless piece of shit, but it's a piece of shit that will run forever

#

Cheaper than a grom in the used market where I'm at, and far more capable

You could also always see about 250 swapping it

There's so many mods you can do to them, and they are damn reliable bikes

I was looking into stupid little turbo kits for the grom the other day kek

I kind of just want something I can throw in the bed of my truck and explore new places with. I'm not a hardcore rider, and I have an interest in dirt riding. Would be cool to have for the trips I take in the fututre.

I think I'm to tall for them though

And some of these dual sports are so damn heavy

#

It's ridiculous honestly. That's one of the things that held me back from buying the KLX300

Idk. I wouldnt put know but you might get lucky. Or learn to weld shiblaugh

#

The more I research, I realize there just isn’t a bike that can do highway speeds comfortable, and is light enough to do some single track

#

UNLESS, you spend $10k on a ktm lmao

proven hearth
#

I dont plan to ride on the highway much at all except for maybe some short distances so its not a giant concern

#

At least for me

proven badger
#

I just feel if I ever find myself on the highway, ideally I’d like to go the speed of or faster than traffic so I don’t get merged into

#

Honestly I just live in the wrong place for a bike right now. It’s nothing but busy ass road and highways. I’d probably be dead in a year trying to navigate this shit

#

If I move to a western state, a dual sport will definitely be in the works for me

proven hearth
#

I live in the dfw like i said, it's pretty congested here during the day but im more of a night owl anyway. And the roads are much more dead, i really only get out in the day if i have to

I just don’t want to commit to street riding

Ive rode alot on the street, i know quite a few people who have to. Trust i get it. I just miss riding and don't have anywhere to ride a dirt bike. So street it is

proven badger
#

Very understandable, streets are all I have for hours

proven hearth
#

Most of my riding back when i was a kid was on dirt bikes. Then got into enduro's, then moved to street bikes before i stopped after my accident

But im ready to get back into it. Been years, time to just say fuck it and face it and get back on

Another crashed going 170mph and walked away from the crash unscathed. He took it as a sign to give up riding lmao

proven hearth
#

I just think im ready, i rode my homies shit the other day and realized how badly i missed riding.

#

Crashing at 170 and walking away is wild

#

I think i want the duke too because it's a light bike with good mid range power so i can really lean into it and learn how to ride better. That plus the more heads up seating position

#

It’s crazy some of the crashed people walk away from when another car isn’t involved

I think KTM had an enduro bike with the 390 engine that I was looking at before

#

It sounds super weird but it works extremely well. It also allows for you to press the rifle up against something and still have the full accessibility of a vertical grip

golden marlin
#

I generally do what a lot of people do now where you more or less scoop the top section of the foregrip

#

In cradle it between the handguard and the grip

#

And I just feel like that would be invading my space

#

Just a little further forwards and it would be perfect

and even the normal lock when you get it to secure unless you have alien thumbs you aren't reaching the extended release with your hand on the gun

#

I ran my AR with none for a fair time

#

before I got my gunfighter 3 which was also recommended by @golden marlin btw

golden marlin
faint bay
#

I mean its perfect

#

works really well as a hand stop for fast c-clamping and you can also grab it if you like to go thompson

#

my friend is doing a good job avoiding gf3

#

see

#

I said that get 2 of them gf3s and he was like "but they were out of stock everywhere"

#

so he has to use multiple

#

smh

blazing temple
#

you know

#

that handstop is totally unnecessary

#

but for some reason I think it can look kinda neat

faint bay
#

on the right one?

thorny flame
blazing temple
#

the one you were talking about before

thorny flame
#

return to toob

faint bay
blazing temple
#

the one set up as a barrier stop in front of the grip

faint bay
#

very neat

blazing temple
#

I think that can be neat

#

I have nothing against standalone handstops either

#

I mean thats basically what I use my grip for

#

c clamp dat thing

faint bay
#

exactly

#

gotta say that that sad hand stop on that pcc is OK but gf3 wins every day

thorny flame
#

you can just cover a tube in carbide and do the same thing

faint bay
#

oh yea I actually... like those bulky mp5 SD looking front grips baha

#

grab that baquet

thorny flame

but it's pretty hard to beat a fucking JP tube setup from 15 years ago

#

unless you're doing laser memes

faint bay
#

you mean this?

#

holy shit that is one tall mount

thorny flame
#

the entire genre, yeah

faint bay
#

that rifle doesn't look too comfy but I think it could be

#

and that's a lefty lol

I bet its just an inverted picture

faint bay

I'm ambi myself (like @round sentinel I get)

faint bay
faint bay
thorny flame
#

it's just no frills setups, the bcm rail obviously more prevalent

#

people want to buy widgets though, understandably

faint bay
#

there is a huge market for them that is for sure

thorny flame
#

but you'll notice every top 3gun dude for example has the same rifle setup effectively

#

the only changes have been to the precision side of things with the arca rails

faint bay
#

look at this old pic of me ROFL. I felt very comfy with it. Even with that shitty airsoft open reflex I had for a little while

#

this is pretty much the setup I run these days

#

very plain

#

never too old to toy around

#

still this is the one I'm the most familiar with

#

or this baby

thorny flame
#

we love a tikka folks

faint bay
#

that's a custom with TRG barrel but yea, otherwise the same

#

not that the initial barrel is bad but that is just extra

#

I'd say that barrel replacement is the rifle price at least

#

when it is time to chance my own tikka barrel I think I try to get a trg barrel to it. It's thicker, it's heavier but you can do like 1.5 km hits with it

thorny flame
#

there are plenty of companies that spin up tikka prefits at this point

#

the sako tax is crazy

faint bay
#

yup

#

sako brand brings the price up insanely because mil branch

thorny flame
#

they're all like that

#

i had a chance to get a trg42 pretty cheap but

#

would have to rebarrel and the costs were insane

faint bay
#

my 10 round tikka mag was like $150 but sako branded one is $250. 1:1 mag but tikka one has that plastic sleeve that prevents it to be put into mil ones

#

you can get rid of it

#

😉

#

that's just their HK way to make it pricey

#

because mil deals

thorny flame
#

it's fine, everything is pretty accessible now

faint bay
#

yea

thorny flame
#

not the case 15 or 20 years ago

faint bay
#

and if you really want to find stupid prices look for HK G28 parts

thorny flame
#

there's basically nothing outside of maybe ELR you can't get into

#

for cheap

#

ELR is just a matter of how much money you can set on fire

faint bay
#

try to find "original" G28 "patrol" prices

#

they are like 10-20 k for "G28 scope setup"

thorny flame
#

yeah but they're selling systems to the govt

faint bay
#

exactly

thorny flame
#

so again the pricing isn't really transparent

faint bay
scenic jetty
#

how are these steiner scopes ?

faint bay
#

some say Kahles glass is better for the same price but Steiner is made to withstand more mil context

scenic jetty
#

gotcha

faint bay
#

Kahles is a Swarovski sub brand I get

scenic jetty
#

depending on the reticle i might get one

faint bay
#

yeah I would recommend steiner

scenic jetty
#

for my bolt gun

faint bay
#

only minus for you yankees is the 10 year warranty

thorny flame
#

you can get them with the non stupid reticle

faint bay
#

but I think you can get around it in the us dealerships

#

I suppose if you buy a steiner from some us dealer it is really a lifetime warranty

#

but not sure. Probably it is.

scenic jetty
#

gotcha

#

theres other ones im looking at as well

faint bay
#

but I really got 2 options I was weighing. Kahles and Steiner.

#

I bought mine from Finnaccuracy because I love MSR

#

I would have gotten MSR FDF version with less stuff on the reticle, but MSR2 is the ultimate

scenic jetty
#

arent kahles super expensive as well

faint bay
#

yes, same price basically.

#

around 3k I think even in the us

#

Mine is Steiner M7xi

#

4-28x

thorny flame
#

if you can swing it

scenic jetty
#

they have it pretty much at the same price as online

faint bay
#

the equivalent Kahles is 4-24x

thorny flame
#

also NX6 if they're shipping yet

faint bay
#

I went with the 28x that steiner offers

thorny flame
#

i know they delayed them

faint bay
#

Yea I don't say Vortex is bad in any way

#

but the FDF has chosen Steiners. Probably partly because Steiner is imported by Sako

#

and Steiners are the ones I've been operating

#

and I wanted the MSR-variant reticle

thorny flame
#

they're 2400 street or so

#

for the 4-24s

faint bay
#

I actually have Vortex lens caps because Steiner original caps were ass

#

and I mean it.

#

so if you end up with a Steiner scope I highly recommend to buy vortex caps because they fit so nicely you actually need some tape to open them because especially the eye piece cap might come off before opening. And that is a good thing.

#

That is a horrible feature in a 3k scope

#

if the caps open by themselves

#

I would not carry those in a bag

#

I was going with Butler Creek ones but they recommended Vortex and that was a good deal

#

butler creeks have that nice orange button to open the cap

#

or is it a shade of red

#

anyway 😄

faint bay
thorny flame
#

the euro stuff doesn't make a ton of sense here

#

in the event you have to warranty something

faint bay
#

But I think you have dealerships with nice warranty regardless right?

thorny flame
#

sure but it's still a logistical challenge

faint bay
#

yea you might end up to wait

thorny flame
#

going to wait a few months to send your shit off to kahles?

faint bay
#

thats a big argument for "domestic" scopes

faint bay
#

even here

thorny flame
#

vortex/NF here very quick

faint bay
#

thats a big argument really

#

And knowing you guys and your ‘no questions asked’ policy, I would think that you’d just get a new scope and the seller would handle the reclamation fight themselves

#

but then again we are talking about 3k pieces

#

the risk to get a faulty one is pretty small

faint bay
#

they surely know the risks

#

but you can and you should ask about it

thorny flame
#

it's a real mixed bag

faint bay
#

yea you know your shit better than me

thorny flame
#

like S&B had a service center here but they don't anymore

faint bay
#

hah

#

odd

#

too few reclamations? 👼

thorny flame
#

who knows

faint bay
#

but you are right, warranty shit is a real concern when talking about expensive stuff

#

I know one guy that got his Spuhr mount cracked on a wooden stock LM.338

#

of course they replaced it with a free item

thorny flame
#

a lot of them did

faint bay
#

yea it just happens

#

even the best fail

thorny flame
#

i don't think the spuhr stuff is worth the price at all here

faint bay
#

oh

#

that's a big statement really but then again, everything can fail

blazing temple
#

Smh they cant even spell spur right

thorny flame
#

you can get better mounts made here

faint bay
#

Spuhr is a Swedish company...... BUT I think just lately CZ bought em. And Sellier&Bellot too

thorny flame
#

yeah CZ owns everything now

faint bay
#

Czech republic is growing

#

we have paid them well in the EU haha

#

also SAKO is nowadays owned by Beretta... BUT

#

I still know where they make their stuff

#

and the zero tester is my friend

#

I know where to throw shit

#

its like 100 kms from here 😉

thorny flame
#

lot of integration like uh, mentioned the colt optics situation, obviously under CZ

#

but they bought out meopta awhile back?

faint bay
#

I think

thorny flame
#

so it will be curious to see how those are received

faint bay
#

but not too far, better than chinese lol

thorny flame
#

they want the .mil contracts

faint bay
#

nowadays yes

#

they want to challenge HK and others

#

HK actually sued finland for choosing SAKO ARs

#

and lost haha

#

okay I think HK is bashed here enough

anyway, @scenic jetty if you want to get a professional opinion, I'd say if you are willing to pay let's say 2k-4k for proper glass, just go and look thru them and go with the one you are comfortable with. Turret operating and glass quality. And check their reticle options too. What looks good for you.

#

And hopefully the guys that are selling stuff know their shit

#

after 1.5k that is what matters the most. Under 1.5-2k (euros at least) I would not trust too much that the turret clicks are 1:1 what they represent.

scenic jetty
faint bay
#

yeah and remember you have good return policy

#

and if you are looking for mil conditions I'd say Steiner has some sort of reputation at least. FDF went with them. I refuse to believe it's only that sako imports that

#

Arken is actually a tempting option. Chinesium but I've heard that like 1 in 10 is worth it

#

I would not go with Arken personally

#

with 500 dollars you just can't get quality glass, the coating and consistent turrets etc

#

its just impossible

#

also I would not buy second hand glass ever

#

you just can't know what they have gone through. And how they are maintained. How they are wiped. One wrong wipe can ruin the optic. Seriously.

#

so lets say for me 500 dollars cheaper than a brand new is not worth it

that's what I thought.

nice to see you man. Long long time no speak

i broke a vortex spotting scope once, i dropped it off a shooting platform, i contacted vortex, they were out of stock, so they sent me a more expensive version for free, was on my doorstep in 3 days

faint bay

god bless the US and A

vortex guarantees anything besides losing it basically, even if YOU break it.

A2 for 900?

timid belfry
faint bay
#

alright

timid belfry
#

I missspoke

faint bay
#

well you deffy need a stock

#

sorry I have only shot full auto mp5s. And also SD

timid belfry
#

You can get the HK fixed for like $250, the collapsible a3 stock is about $900

proven badger
faint bay
#

yes

proven badger
#

a3 stock or bust

#

(I'm going to buy a cheap ass brace)

faint bay
#

I could not imagine an mp5 without a stock sorry

#

but that is because I've only shot full auto with them haha

#

lovely guns

proven badger
faint bay
#

any will do

#

just a couple of weeks ago I did a lot full auto with an SD

#

don't recommend shooting it from lefty though

#

got my police sunglasses full of sparks

#

but as I said I am an ambi so I prefer shooting that thing from right

#

I always try the both sides to see what is the most comfy. Right it is with that gun. As it was designed.

unique fjord
#

Just p90 an mp5, 4head

proven badger
#

hell ya

faint bay
#

suomi is alright from both sides

#

not surprised

#

it was really an allarounder

#

still is

#

there is a reason soviets copied that for their ppsh to shoot tokarev rounds

#

even the germans liked that

proven badger
#

The MP5 genuinely seems to be the best smg of all time

#

After the minimal research I've done lol

faint bay
#

I mean

#

it is the most comfiest full auto since Suomi 31

proven badger
#

I shot one super safe and the recoil was incredibly manageable. Would be so easy to control with a small amount of practice

faint bay
#

I've heard similar experiences with p90 FRT

#

which is quite.... odd

proven badger
#

The sp5 was not jumpy at all, it was just a bit of vertical recoil muzzle climb

#

I'd be curious about the P90

faint bay
#

how is the fire rate approximately?

proven badger
#

Just based on the ergonomics of the gun

faint bay
proven badger
#

so faster than a real full auto mp5

faint bay
#

it's really hard to believe it is completely legal there

proven badger
#

Everyone has them lmao

proven badger
faint bay
#

our law is not so easy to go around. We have this "mimicking the full auto" is banned

#

so there goes all sorts of frts and "super safeties"

proven badger
#

The only thing gun laws do in the US is prevent law abiding citizens from having things

#

But you guys don't have that problem in Finland

#

We are definitely living through a golden age for 2a rights here in the U.S. (depending on what state someone lives in)

#

That’s cool af

#

It’s the import laws here that prevent those things

#

I think you being in Europe, you have more access to cool military guns

#

America is an island for those types of things

faint bay
#

Yeah, it’s kind of counterintuitive, if you know what I mean. There’s a tiny market for full autos, but it’s mostly for collectors. Still, it’s not impossible to become a collector

#

you know?

#

of course if you are a collector they don't permit the licences for full autos first. You have to gather some sort of collection of "safer" guns first and then proceed

faint bay
#

I mean there are some pre ban weapons sold there but they cost like 50-100 grands

#

meanwhile collectors here can get them for like... 1 grand?

#

I don't know your laws as well as you do

minor grove
#

Big inspiration from the game

faint bay
#

your gun?

minor grove
#

ye

faint bay
#

as an AK shooter myself I would move that handstop further

#

depending on how long your arms are

minor grove
#

👌 i usually run my handstops further but for aks i like it closer

faint bay
#

okay that's your preference. I myself like to grab is as far as my arms reach for the recoil control

#

but in cqb I'd just grab the mag

minor grove
#

I’m a big ar15 shooter.

faint bay
#

I like to have mine at that length.

#

16"

minor grove
#

very soft shooting

#

I like the longer barrels but recently have fallen into the short barrels

faint bay
#

it's really a question of preference

minor grove
#

just waiting for the ATF to release my suppressors from jail

faint bay
#

AR has so little recoil (imo, im used to x39) so it's really not that crucial

#

whatever suits you

minor grove
#

yeah the recoil on ARs is just non existent with proper stance and recoil management

#

but also on Ak's, especially the Aks chambered in 5.45 and 5.56

faint bay
#

my friend has a nice Schmeisser 9mm with that fancy hydraulic recoil buffer so I have mainly shot that lately

#

it mimicks quite well .223 rem

minor grove
#

i need a 9mm ar, 9mm is so cheap compared to 5.56 and 300 blackout

faint bay
#

there is it for comparison with his newly acquired .223 on the left

minor grove
#

very clean setups

#

i like it

faint bay
#

that's the best pcc I've ever seen

#

it takes glock mags

#

(on the right)

minor grove
#

🔥

faint bay
#

we have mainly shot 30 round big stick glock mags

#

but it takes also regular glock 17 mags ofc

#

that's a dream

minor grove
#

i feel like it needs the 30 round big sticks

faint bay
#

they are dreamy but a bit pita to load full because of the spring but also it has made like 0 faults in one year

minor grove
#

glock reliability 💯

faint bay
#

of course the spring is far more stiff than regular glock mag but it is just physics

#

yeah Schmeisser is also a german brand so they just happened to make a perfect pcc

#

also my gen 5 glock 17 takes those big sticks

minor grove
#

german engineering is amazing almost all the time

faint bay
#

yeah pity that they are not imported to US for you guys

#

at least yet

minor grove
#

😔

#

one day hopefully

faint bay
#

but once you get them I recommend 1000000

#

its the best pcc there is. hands down

#

the only con with a schmeisser AR is that they are strictly .223

#

so forget 5.56 with schmeisser

#

(the left one)

minor grove
#

meh 223 is close enough to 556

faint bay
#

it is but it is chambered in .223 so I would not load it with 5.56

minor grove
#

def dont lol

faint bay
#

unlike my Ruger MPR that takes everything

#

its 5.56

minor grove
#

ruger 👌

faint bay
#

0 faults in 3 years!

#

the only fault I've seen with it was with hera full size 10 rounders

minor grove
faint bay
#

it traveled too far

#

the plastic is like butter

#

it just physically blocked the receiver

minor grove
#

yeah I've only had like 1 fault with my weapons and its just been ammo related. I shoot a lot of very cheap ammo

#

stopped shooting cheap ammo and decided to just spend the little more money to get reliable ammo

faint bay
#

yea but those particular mags... they just traveled too high if you know what I mean. Went past all the AR preventions

minor grove
#

ahhhh i see

faint bay
#

yea and when we took a look at the mags there were like slices of plastic gone

minor grove
#

damn 💀

faint bay
#

its just bad quality mags

#

pmags ftw

minor grove
#

yeah I always just go with PMAGs (Magpul)

faint bay
#

yea accept no substitutes

minor grove
#

I recently acquired a 100 round magazine from Betamag lol

#

just a joke of a magazine

#

#

I actually haven't had any issues with it but its just more of a show piece

thorny flame

#

finns like to take a mag support so mags that go too deep are a no no

minor grove
faint bay
#

their quality has always been top notch

minor grove
faint bay
#

and you get them for cheap

#

for like coins

#

whereas I have had to pay $40 for pmags per each

#

the only better mag I know is the SAKO RK AK mag

#

conscripts use their springs to cook sausages

minor grove
#

wow 40$ I paid 9$ per mag

minor grove
faint bay
#

not even kidding

#

those are RK mag springs

minor grove
#

Im going to have to try that one day

faint bay
#

people have used those as hammers

minor grove
#

im just going to take the spring from this mag I have laying around and try out the ak magazine spring sausage cooking method

faint bay
#

oh we have had steel mags aswell but those plastic mags issued are foolproof

minor grove
#

foolproof? how

faint bay
#

you can drive over them with a car

#

or use them as a hammer

#

and eject the spring and use it for bbq

minor grove
#

ooooh, yeah polymer has high crush resistance

faint bay
#

at least that plastic

#

ok maybe a car was a bit exaggerated but those issued mags always look like they have seen some wars

#

and they literally have

#

war practices

minor grove
#

pmags are the same

faint bay
#

but people really use them for something they are not intended to be used to

minor grove
#

used by the marine corp and are always abused and are very difficult to break

faint bay
#

yea pmags are pmuch the same quality

#

meanwhile STANAGS were meant to be single use

proven badger
#

it has to have taken a big hit

faint bay
#

probably 😄

#

but that market was not that big

#

at least I think so

#

but let's face it who buys legit full autos in the states?

#

they want original stuff typically?

#

people who have like 50-200 grands to spend on guns

timid belfry
faint bay
#

oh you are interested

proven badger
#

It’s this with whatever tailhook you want

#

I didn’t even know tail hooks were really a thing until I saw people’s sp5 builds. In my opinion, the tailhook is the best looking option for a brace

proven badger
#

I never realized how many rich people are in this country until I started my current job lmao.

faint bay
#

true but do you think that those gadgets will affect the real market

proven badger
#

I’ve worked with plenty of people who are capable of and are willing to spend $50k on a stupid toy
