  1. Yeah I was afraid to move up to mechanical. ?? I used elbow grease for about a half hour with novus 3-2-1 with minimal results at best. ?? I agree it???s got to be an undersuit dye stain. ??? ??
  2. Anybody have an issue with large black marks on their armor. ??I???m not talking a boot sole rubber mark. ?? I???m talking about black marks that seem to be deep in the abs like a stain. ?? I???m using standard 3-2-1 polish with no luck. ??Most of the marks are at armor joints like elbows, knees etc. ???? I troop more often for my saber site than I do here. ??My last troop was this summer in the heat. ??My armor was literally soaked on the inside from swept along with my undershirt. ??My armor was pretty pristine prior to this one troop with no scuffs or marks. ??Both armor and undersuit are anovos. I hate to try sanding the abs as it???s thin already. i really think it???s the suit because there???s also blackish brown staining inside the legs ?? I guess the question is can it be removed safely?
  3. It appears Apex is pretty cleaned out. ??IMA still has some stuff. ??Their mags are a bit cheaper than eBay. ??Not by much and you???d have to cut it down. ??
  4. I couldnt remember the name earlier.??Apex guns has the best price on deactivated sterling???s and parts. ??That???s where I got mine. ??They???re much cheaper than IMA. ?? ?? If you live in a ban state ***read CT***??make sure to send the magazine to a friendly state and have a friend chop it for you. ??That???s what I did. ??Perfectly legal once it???s??chopped to 10 rounds or less or you just chop the end off so it???s unserviceable I wish I could make the armor party. ??I???d bring it.?? ?? My recommendation. ??Ditch the barrel. It???s a lot of weight. ??Also, chop of as much as you can of the bolt. ??You can take a lot of weight off of those two items alone. ??I troop with mine so weight is a major concern. ?? It still weighs in over five lbs. if Sarah has the muzzle piece just take it to a machinist along with the receiver tube. ??They can turn it on a lathe so it drops right in. ??Then use jbweld and your good to go. ??I did the same with the butt cap locking thread. ??I had it turn down until he couldn???t get the chuck to hold it. ??I used a dremel with sanding drum to take it the rest of the way.?? If you???re careful and take your time you can have everything work like the real Sterling. ?? As for the grip frame. ??It???d either weight for field marshal or buy one from Apex. ??Don???t Mae your own unless you have mad CNC skills. ??Plus, you???ve come this far. ??Make it all a work. ?? If I ever have some free time, I???ve got a plecterlabs blaster core just waiting to be installed. ??Having a working trigger group is key.?? I got my t track from wannawanga and it???s perfect. ??His lengths are just a bit oversize which allow you a practice run or two on heating and bending.?? Playful woflcub makes the best cylinders IMHO and I???d have to look but I got my scope rail from a guy on whitearmor.??
  5. Phoenix props on whitearmor sells a complete CNC machined aluminum tube for around $80. ??I bought one and it???s fantastic. ??I purchased a deactivated sterling and ground down all the parts then attached them to the receiver tube. i spent a year watching eBay and finally found a vintage eagle hengstler counter and M38 tank scope. fire Marshall is most likely a cheaper route but I???d look at IMA for vintage parts. ?? you can weld aluminum to steel but I???d recommend going to a welder. ??I opted to use JBweld and have had pretty good success, although I need to redo two parts. ??Make sure you media blast the tube before trying to attach any parts to the receiver tube. ?? ??
  6. After TLJ I???ve been very pessimistic about the franchise. ??Although I don???t think Solo has that Star Wars ???feel??? like we saw in Rogue 1, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite SW movies, I think Solo will be lightyears ahead of the debacle Rian gave us with TLJ.?? I???m still upset they didn???t go with Anthony Ingruber. ??Watch Age of Adeline and tell me he???s not a young Harrison Ford. ??He would have been epic as a young??Solo ?? ?? I???m causiously optimistic.
  7. ***edit*** ?? ?? Stuck working. ??? I???ll try this again. ??I haven???t been too lucky lately with my work schedule.???? I just put in for the day off. ??Let???s see if I get it. ????
  8. until

    I won???t get off work until after 4. ??Sorry guys. ??I was really hoping to make this event.?? ??
  9. until

    I just got stuck working the 7th and have to bow out. ?
  10. Thanks. ??I did all that. ??I wasn???t sure what url code was required. ??I???ve tried several. ??My website requires us to alter the imgur code but that same code doesn???t work here.?? ?? https://imgur.com/a/KlY5x ?? thats the imgur link. ?? One option is to add tags to it. ??
  11. Similar question. ??What???s the new code for avatars? ??I???m now using the imgur app after the loss of PB.
