SIG in Serious Damage Control Mode
98Z5V replied to 98Z5V's topic in Firearm Industry News and Gossip
No one here is attacking them, brother, not in the least. Just bring up the strange output from them recently, say that there is NOT a 320 problem, there has NEVER been a 320 problem, and it's all hype, etc... Watch that first vid I posted, it directly displays their whole public statement... They are in Damage Control Mode right now, for some reason that nobody knows... Makes me think something is coming down the pipe, after them, and they were tipped off about it... -
Yep, now I wanna do it... We already have seen what 42 lbs does to a Jetta...

300 lbs of Tannerite...

This is something we'll have to deal with as a country, but more specifically, militarily. Rangers have been in Syria for a long time. On the ground. This will come to a head, and it's gonna be a fight against those fuqrs that are doing this. It won't be pretty, but it'll be very violent, and to the point.

This really happens. REAL phonecalls come into the gunshop, JUST like this...

Get the credit cards out, Fukkers... Get to it...

I'm gonna try to reverse THE RULE since none of you fuqrs even acknowledged my question in the first place. I asked about a handguard, and nobody said shiit about anything, not even a response. IN LIGHT OF THAT, the $300 handguard is completely out of stock everywhere, and the complete lack of response from everyone forced me to buy a $720 upper, just to get a handguard, and the upper doesn't even come with a BCG of charging handle. So, as payment, and Reverse-Enforcement of THE RULE, all the regulars here have 48 hours to buy one of these uppers...

Okay - nothing from anybody, since last Thursday. So, I invoked THE RULE on myself in this matter. Here is THE RULE: "If you post, inquiring about a product, be it new or old, and no one responds with a review within 48 hours, you are hereby required to buy said product, and review that product, so that this rule doesn't apply to the next person with the same inquiry. "The Rule" shall not apply to the announcement of new or upcoming products, unless there is some context inquiring as to who will be the first to assume ownership of said product. At that point "The Rule" will once again apply to the poster, who will be obligated to be the first in the stated question. While this shouldn't need to be stated, pictures are required, or that s*** didn't happen." That's a hard and steadfast legality here on the board - but it gets interpreted and applied at will. But, it is The Rule." We'll see what happens. I bought the damn upper - and I never buy uppers. Always parts, and I build them myself. Well, I just bought the second upper receiver group that I've ever bought in my entire life. Now, I'm waiting on two Aero M4E1 PRO lower receivers. When they'll get here, I have no idea. Here's the link to the upper: https://www.aeroprecisionusa.com/m4e1-threaded-complete-upper-14-in-5-5pt-56-mid-length-gov-w-13-5-mod-4-handguard

The reason I think my 300 blk is just kinda “meh”

The struggle is real, and must be adhered to. Try having 6.5 Grendel (5), 6mm ARC (3), and 22 ARC (3). I NEVER take more than one to the shooting position. Ever. I only take the specific ammo for THAT gun, up there to shoot. They all use the same mags. I clear ALL ammo and the gun out of there, before the next one even comes out of the case and goes up. The struggle is real - but it's important... -

I've thrown Glocks on the ground, intentionally, and never seen one of mine discharge. I'd never do that with someone else's Glock. Without their permission first. -

Johnny B never fails to disappoint - this guy is high-energy, so brace yourselves. Here's another one. There's some shiit going on, that SIG knows about, heading their way - and this is Preventative Maintenance, engaging the public before it hits. There's some shiit going down here. We just don't know what it is... Yet... -
This is all great, great info, Dewey @Dewey Mack- don't let up, man. You're doing something here that's never, ever been compiled before, into one resource.

FWIW, all AR-10 springs are going to be too strong, and be too long, to run inside a 7.000" internal depth AR15 Carbine Receiver Extension, in a .308 AR or other Large Frame caliber, and they will all coil-bind before the BCG can get full travel. The compressed length of all AR-10 springs is greater than the 2.500" buffer will allow. The exception is the Sprinco Orange Spring. Specifically designed for 7.000" internal depth, 2.500" buffer length, running in Large Frames. It also works in some blow-back pistol-caliber builds, but not many. Sprinco Red is the solution for almost all PCCs, and that's an identical replacement spring for the Armalite EA-1095 spring.

There's a brand new flat-wire spring on the market, but it's for a specific buffer. KAK is making a flat-wire, and it's use is mandatory, according to KAK, for their new buffer. I'm testing this right now in a 16" rifle gas BA SPR profile 22 ARC barrel (full gun), and I'm running one of their heavier A5 buffers. This is an A5 system, in mine - KAK makes this combo for the traditional carbine recoil system for AR15s, running their new 3.250" long buffer. Here's the buffer - I'm running the A5H3, at 6.5oz, with their flat-wire spring: Here's the link to it: https://kakindustry.com/k-spec-enhanced-ar15-buffer-a5h2-6-5-oz/ So, they sprung the head of the buffer with an internal spring, strong as hell. It acts as a dead-blow, when the BCG bottoms out. I've seen a difference, it works, but I don't have enough time on that gun yet to see how much of a difference it makes. The reason you have to run their flat-wire, is because a round wire spring will hit coil-bind before the BCG can get full travel - just because the head of that BCG is that much longer - just because of that additional spring in the head of the BCG, doing it's work. Hope all that makes sense...

The real question to ask someone, whilst engaged in casual conversation on this topic... "Do you shoot a Statute Mile (1760 yards)? Or, do you shoot a Nautical Mile (2000 yards)?"

Found another great article, The Magic Mile. The link to it is stupid long, so I'll post the whole article here. Here's the link anyway... https://athlonoutdoors.com/article/the-magic-mile/?trk_msg=R2B0MQLPSBMKHA2PF7C2ALD4B4&trk_contact=8V0L65B89JG3CKL2PPP2IG35AC&trk_sid=FC9KI3TLR5UJG29P00HNAL5I6C&trk_link=9F3GJM2J27JKH1MFPCUVAMQF14 The Magic Mile – Super Long-Range Shooting by Tactical Life Staff March 6, 2025 You set yourself behind the gun, ready for the challenge. The wind, moving at three miles per hour, factors into your calculations. As your spotter confirms the distance to the target—1760 yards, one mile—you prepare to fire. The bipod supports your rifle, making it as steady as a stone. You center your breathing and take a moment to gather focus before you apply smooth pressure to the trigger. The gun roars as the round blasts from the barrel at over 3000 feet per second. After what feels like an eternity, your spotter calls out…HIT. You just made the Magic Mile shot. The Magic Mile – A look at Super Long Range Shooting Welcome to the world of long-range shooting, where excitement meets a zen-like focus that challenges your breathing and trigger control. This discipline isn’t just for a select few anymore; it has evolved into a serious division within the shooting culture. With traditional classes available nationwide and a vibrant long-range competition community, enthusiasts continue to grow while pursuing their own Magic Mile challenge. Many people want to try long-range shooting but feel intimidated by its complexities, often worried about the dreaded four-letter word—MATH. Although shooting out to a mile involves more knowledge, it’s not too hard to grasp. Let’s explore some critical factors you need to consider when attempting such a feat, like achieving the Magic Mile shot. Factors to Consider First, examine how temperature, altitude, and humidity affect a bullet’s flight. Warm air holds less density than cool air, allowing bullets to navigate with less resistance and lose less energy as they travel. Higher altitudes also lead to thinner air, reducing the external forces acting on your round mid-flight. Humidity plays a role as well; greater humidity thickens the air, noticeably impacting your shots. Understanding these factors is crucial for mastering The Magic Mile. Next, consider the external ballistics that can make long-range precision shooting feel more like quantum physics than casual shooting. Start with the ballistic coefficient. Experts at Hornady explain that the “BC” measures a bullet’s ability to overcome air resistance, represented by a numerical value reflecting how efficiently a specific bullet performs compared to a standard projectile. This value is crucial for calculating firing solutions when targeting distant objects during your Magic Mile attempts. Physics Class Next, you’ll need to understand gyroscopic drift, also known as spin drift. This phenomenon occurs when a bullet interacts with the surrounding air as it travels through a rifled barrel. If the rifling spins the bullet right, the spin drift will subtly push the round off target to the right. While this effect remains minimal at shorter distances, it becomes significant over longer ranges and is essential knowledge for hitting The Magic Mile. Finally, let’s delve into Coriolis drift, which combines two effects but ultimately influences your shots at extreme distances. The drift can shift left, right, up, or down depending on where you’re aiming relative to the Earth’s rotation. To simplify, if your round is airborne long enough, the Earth’s movement can shift the target’s original location out of alignment with your shot. This effect is especially relevant when attempting The Magic Mile. Gear Matters As you venture into long-range shooting, you’ll require more specialized gear. While the trusty .308 remains effective, consider other calibers as targets drift further away. The .338 Lapua, designed specifically for long-range sniping, has proven its worth, with remarkable feats such as a British sniper’s incredible 2,707-yard shot in 2009—over a mile and a half away. You’ll find rifles ranging from entry-level Remington 700s to highly customized builds tailored for individual shooters. The more specialized the rifle, the more it can drain your wallet. Investing in the best equipment can help you achieve your Magic Mile dreams. Finally, don’t underestimate the importance of high-quality optics. The clarity and performance of your scope can make the difference between hitting or missing your target. Often, a good scope costs as much—if not more—than the rifle itself. Remember this phrase when purchasing optics: “Buy once…cry once.” Although the initial investment might sting, it’ll pay off in the long run, especially when aiming for The Magic Mile. The Magic Mile It was not too long ago that shots at a mile and beyond where almost mythical. In today’s world of exceptional rifles, great ammunition and crystal-clear optics, these distances are more easily conquered. If you are interested, then muster up the courage to jump into a class or even a shooting competition. The long-range community is a friendly, professional crowd that quickly remembers their first days behind a long gun. After that though, they discovered that there is no magic in making that mile shot!

We can for sure make a special trip out to the dirt for you, brother. Let me know what works for you, and I'll get it together. I don't work Saturdays anymore, and I'm down for anything, anytime, any weekend... -
My reasons are close, and similar - helicopters, gunfire, and airplanes fuk your hearing up, too.

Truth, brother. We have a seriously huge "lack of pride" in this country - just because of this country. Too many weenie motherfukcers, with feelz, We are slowly swinging that pendulum, though, and coming back around...

Here's the song for that vid background... Masked Wolf, Astronaut in the Ocean... This song will blow you away on a bigass badass sound system...
