    Stealth Arms Platypus

    Thy already changed it. At the time I ordered, the only optic availability was RMRCC and something else...don't remember what the something else was. Now it's available with multiple cuts.

    Mine has been 100% reliable. I've cleaned it the day I got it and haven't since other just to add oil to rails. I'm up to 1500(ish) rounds.

    If I wanted to put a 9mm upper on a regular AR lower---

    How many rounds do you have on it? I am looking at those too. Only thing kinda holding me back is seeing lot of failures in low round counts.

    If I wanted to put a 9mm upper on a regular AR lower---

    9mm buffers are usually longer to prevent over travel. Over travel allows more room for acceleration after last round to slam into your bolt catch causing breakage. If yhe buffer you go with is not longer, you will need a spacer. You can buy one, or make one for $2.25-$2.50. 9 or 10 quarters in...

    Proficiency Training Thoughts?

    So I guess my big mistake is not having a definite goal in mind. I do fine static shooting at a bull. I am looking at more dynamic shooting, engaging multiple targets. I have been incorporating movement and stopages into my shooting. "Getting of the X" if you are a fancy youtuber. My problem is...

    Icarus X Macro frame is pretty cool!

    The grip is slightly larger, but still small. It is blocky, but the undercut helps it sink into the hand.

    Icarus X Macro frame is pretty cool!

    I just did the Sharps Bros due to availability. Not sorry about it at all. Love the gas pedals and wood grips.

    Reccomended targets for this style of shooting? Currently using the 66% and 50% steel silhouettes, get a fresh coat of paint every few rounds. Black with white bull about 2". IPSC cardboard? Bull is fine at slow fire, looking to increase time to target, follow up, and work in transitions.

    Proficiency Training Thoughts?

    Was just shooting steel, focusing on the two silhouettes on the right. I think that I'm at the stage where I could benefit from a shot timer. My "pretty quick pace" may not be calibrated.

    Proficiency Training Thoughts?

    Recently just realized that I have surpassed 100 pistols of various flavors. Ranging from Taurus to Wilson Combats. Many semi-custom, a built from scratch custom and several with bolt on (optics, sights, triggers etc. Even multiples. Hell, I just bought two different Walther PDPs, so I could...

    Matador Mat-9 vs Stribog SP9-A3

    My Palmetto AKV has been flawless. It has less recoil than my AR-9s and Ruger PCC despite having the same operating system. Might be due to the "piston" is a huge counter weight, or witchcraft. The $15 35 round mags is a huge bonus as well. Order the configuration you want and be done with it...

    Suppressor should not cost this much!

    I got $9/lb last time i scrapped inconel. And that was just leftover bolts and nuts.

    Suppressor should not cost this much!

    While I do believe R&D, labor, materials, and equipment is a portion of the cost, the overall general design is simplistic. I believe a majority if the cost is legal protection and ATF compliance. This is 100% my uneducated guess. I have no background in the suppressor manufacturing process...

    What sort of bells and whistles?
