  1. I don’t think you have to worry about the country dividing. The most likely senerio is we kick the shit out of those areas and when the dust settles they emerge from their basements with a whole new level of I better shut the hell up. You have all heard the sentiment growing. A very large percentage of their supporters won’t fight for themselves let alone a nation or idea. We are the working class, we are the farmers, we are law enforcement, we are the military, we are the gun owners... They are the pansies, the felons, the lazy, the dependents...
  2. You aren’t alone. I swing both ways too. (Magually) 😂
  3. Lol! Hopefully that’s what it means! Always use eye protection!
  4. Everyone see those 2 pits on the bolt lug? That’s where they tested the hardness of this bolt. I’m willing to bet these aren’t anywhere on those TriStar guns or other Chinese or Turkish clones... Why would they bother when they know they don’t care anyways, lol.
  5. I don’t think they sell them as spares. Yeah, the 4th setting can’t let in anymore gas than the 3rd setting can so nothing to gain by using the 4th. You can get a touch of extra efficiency if you weld up the 4th setting to decrease chamber volume. Just clean up the outer diameter good or stand off from it a touch. You should notice that it ejects the low brass with a touch more force after that.
  6. Actually you really only have 3 ports with that plug. The off setting is not truly off. It should tried first with your high power and heaviest of load. The 4th and largest setting isn’t gaining anything over the 3rd setting. The 3rd setting is way larger than the ports in the barrel can feed as it is. Just having that huge 4th port there actually hurts the efficiency of low brass regardless of on the 3rd of 4th setting because it adds a chunk of chamber volume to fill with gas. It would be a better plug if it wasn’t even there or welded up. The number 2 setting is good for a lot of hi
  7. I’m dying to get one myself. Hopefully I don’t regret holding off on one but right now I just do t want to do it to myself. Too much other stuff going on. I fear if I get one I will spend a week anylyzing every detail I can of it. I have problems, lol.
  8. I asked them if the gun had been modified and they said it was new in the box gun. I asked them if they were sure it wasn’t the trunnion and they didn’t know what part I was talking about. I clarified but haven’t heard back. Salty, does the cover come off easily or do you have to remove the shell to disassembly it? I saw it has an adjustable gas plug under the shell. Do you have to remove the shell to adjust it? Did yours have a hole through the lug channel on the bolt carrier? I am almost suspecting they were firing it on the low brass setting. Still doesn’t seem i
  9. Yeah, I was wondering about the lugs too because even if one broke there should be one left. Was also wondering about how it could have an out of battery discharge. Don’t have a TriStar to look at. Maybe Salty can look at his. Hopefully more info will come out on what really happened here.
  10. Salty, can you see through the lug channel on your carrier? Wondering if they are made like that or if this one blew. It looks awful jagged in the pic...
  11. I like the looks of the PSA but just don’t feel any of the other 9mm AK’s I’ve seen. I hate the look of the Glock mag ones.
  12. The market being so down should really help bring new items and innovation. The 9mm AK’s from K-USA should be a damn hot seller. Little pricy right now though... Their next step is going to be a AK-103. I think that is a mistake. They should have focused on an AK-107 if they wanted to wow us. I can only yawn at another 103... The shockwave was a huge success. They sold 50,000 or so in the the first 8 months of it’s release. New and cool... They need to get a magfed semi released. Bet they would easily sell 100,000 or more the first year. Hell, maybe that many of a semi magfed sh
  13. You could mark the hole in the sprocket the spring is at now and count how many times it is wrapped as it unwinds. Then try to step the spring down a step at a time with the holes in the sprocket. It should be somewhat adjustable. The smaller diameter sprocket requires less force to pull the rounds compared to a 20rd drum. Chances are they are putting the same amount of turns on both their 20 and 12rd drum.
