However, I am quite jealous of 10mm-man and how he jumped into production so quickly. That is definitely awesome and its such a huge undertaking! Does anyone know if he did the designs himself, or if he hired someone (or a partner) that did the designs?

Well, as far as naming goes, a friend in college had me in his phone as "<my last name> Engineering", because I was ALWAYS designing something and always working/modifying his truck for him lol. The name always stuck with me and I thought about going with that, as it wouldn't limit me to only firearm products.

Yup, my child will design hoverbikes and jetpacks, I will be designing my own suppressors after doing the FEA analysis on them (and all fluid dynamics modeling too), and OBC has dibs on the first model with a super big discount.

Especially since I'm required to take several fluid dynamics courses for this program, and those along with that FEA class will give me plenty of info to design suppressors.
You don't need a degree to design suppressors. Once you start browsing here

You will see how many designs are simpler than not.

Heya jim, I'm fully aware of silencertalk.com, thats what gave me so many ideas on my first design actually.
My degree is actually for professional development (and because its free since I work for the university). Since I'm using it for work, I'll be getting the full ground work for analyzing systems such as suppressors, and the final result will be something that has been fully modeled and analyzed to produce the best sound reduction possible.
BuffCyclist
11-08-2013, 22:45
Besides, just because a design produces a noticeable reduction in sound, doesn't necessarily mean it is the most optimal design for the maximum noise reduction from those gasses at that velocity.

OBC, that's really unfortunate to hear that! Alzheimer's runs in my family, both sides. My paternal grandfather went downhill fast at 75, and my maternal grandfather has late onset, more demensia i guess, and he's 92. My dad is already showing signs of early onset Alzheimer's, and he's only 56. It is definitely something that I see possible in my future, and frankly it's a little scary. Then again, I'm also hoping research in that field over the next 10-15 or 20yrs makes significant improvements.
And thanks, we're super excited about the phones lol. My wife asked me today if I would play the bad husband and tell the gym she just tried a free week at that no, it's not in our budget lol. She gave them our one cell number. The gym owner is a heavy smoker and the entire gym smells of smoke. On top of that, their website shows super cheap prices ($45/mo including weekly diet plans and 1hr personal training per week), but in person they said that its $75 and sounded shocked and offended when she mentioned the price on THEIR website.

The zeroing session yesterday was a wash. My SBR either doesn't like 55 grain ammo or I need to put a new buffer in it. I'm hoping it's the buffer. The micro didn't want to adjust fast enough. I did get the new right zeroed in and for now it'll be my daily bag gun. It was a hoot with the geissle ss3g. Glock is still reliable as always and I'm actually glad I'm getting rid of the 1911. It just didn't feel as good as my 19

And to commiserate with you, I still haven't zeroed my Savage Mark II-FV tackdriver rifle. I'll mount the scope in the signature zee rings with adjustable inserts, get it zeroed, then decide I have no internal adjustments left, so I'll dismount my scope and use different ring inserts (it comes in -10, 0 and +10 moa that you can adjust the front and rear rings by, giving a total of 20moa of adjustment). Then I rezero and realize its perfect, but that I want to shoot at 100+ yds and I screwed up the zero again and then I use other inserts.
Interestingly enough, if I use +20moa inserts, I can not zero the scope at 100yds, which is very odd. If I had more .22 ammo, I'd go figure it out once and for all, but frankly, I'm running too low on that to care lol.

20MOA base/pic rail on rifle?
Yea, unfortunately that's what I think I'm going to end up needing to do with it. I bought the burris signature zees because i thought I could use those instead of the +20moa rail if I actually needed that much extra travel. And I bought the medium rings that would give me about 0.090" clearance under the bell to the barrel, but if I get the 20moa rail, that will raise the scope bell up at least another 0.125", making that gap closer to 1/4"-5/16" than 1/8".

Hmm, how was it behaving? Because I didn't think it was advisable to use a heavier than carbine buffer on carbine gas length when shorter than 14.5". What kind of ammo, was it good brass or cheap steel cased?

I was running Pmc brass 55gr. It's modeled after a DD rifle and their version comes with an H buffer so I'm going to give it a shot.
BuffCyclist
11-10-2013, 18:59
How was it malfunctioning though? I'm honestly curious now.
My 16" carbine had an H buffer and with wolf (steel cased) it was short cycling and not ejecting the spent case, so I dropped back down to the carbine. Only went up to the H because people said it would seriously change the felt recoil (it didn't lol).
stoner01
11-10-2013, 19:00
I should add the issue I was having was that the would cycle some times and have a failure to feed. Then sometimes it would be a failure to eject or the bolt wouldn't even cycle. Just turned into a one shot wonder.
BuffCyclist
11-10-2013, 19:03
That sounds to me like the buffer you currently have is TOO heavy, in that the gasses aren't high enough to push that buffer far enough back to fully cycle the next round (that's my understanding of the process). Do you have a semi-auto or FA BCG? Which BCG profile does the DD rifle use? (and I assume you mean Daniel Defense not Double D because we all like Double D more...)
Were you shooting it suppressed? I know that suppressors change the way the gas impingement operates.
eta: OR the ammo was lower powered and doesn't create high enough pressures to push that buffer back all the way. Have any 556 you can run through just to test that theory?
e-eta: And if anyone else has more experience, PLEASE set me straight! LOL I'm not claiming that what I am saying is accurate, but it is my current understanding and I honestly haven't had much experience playing around with buffers.

Stoner, if its any help, I have a 7.5" .223/5.56 SBR upper with a pistol length gas system. I can put it on any of my lowers and it still cycles with either carbine or regular buffer. With a carbine buffer it ejects to the 1:30-2:00 position, which is pretty aggressive, but it still functions fine.
Is it a factory assembled upper or home built? BC asked some good questions in his most recent post above.

Noob question for the reloading post whores: I just tumbled my first brass with some Lyman tufnut media and it left all of the brass polished, but with a reddish dust coating, so the brass looks pretty dirty, almost a bronze color. Did I do something wrong? It wipes right off, but it seems like a huge PITA to wipe every case clean. What is the secret here? I did a bunch of searches and it seems like maybe a dryer sheet or two would have prevented this?

Yep. I've got a shit load of xtac but the range wouldn't let me use it. I need to get up to Pawnee to try it out.

You are welcome to try some of the PCI 55gr (group buy) stuff, I've chrono'd it at NATO MV. I'd be happy to let you have 20 rounds for testing, or swap 100rds for anything you have. We can also head out to BLGC one day this week if you like and can find the time.
PM me if you like, or if you still have my number, call.
I might be free later this week. I'd be willing to try 20 and if it works if trade you some.

Noob question for the reloading post whores: I just tumbled my first brass with some Lyman tufnut media and it left all of the brass polished, but with a reddish dust coating, so the brass looks pretty dirty, almost a bronze color. Did I do something wrong? It wipes right off, but it seems like a huge PITA to wipe every case clean. What is the secret here? I did a bunch of searches and it seems like maybe a dryer sheet or two would have prevented this?
Yup, you forgot to add a dryer sheet. I usually tear them into 2-3 pieces when I tumble, and toss them out after each tumbling session.
I also have a pasta strainer that I put all of the brass in after tumbling and swirl it around a bit to get the last of the tumbler media off and also to knock off any dust. If you haven't figured it out too, you might want to do the tumbling outside because dust gets everywhere if you do it inside (although some people do tumble inside and deal with it).

Were they already used dryer sheets or brand new? Sorry, should have clarified. If you use new sheets, they are coated with crap that makes your brass clingy. If you use sheets that were in the dryer/clothes already, it works better.
Could just be the media you are using too. I haven't changed my media in a LONG time, and it still gets my brass super clean and super shiny in 2-3hrs.

Just my luck.
Was driving down the mountain from work last night, and my check engine light came on in my car. Pulled over, stopped engine, started it back up and it was still there. Drove home. After waking up this afternoon, I checked it and still there. Checked all fluids, everything good. All fuses good to.
Drove over to Oreilly's, light still on the entire drive over. The guy comes out with the code reader and we hook it up. He then says, it won't read a code if the CEL isn't on. [facepalm] The stupid light went out the SECOND I go to the auto parts store.

And when you trim you 223 brass, are you trimming all of them, or only the ones that are too long? And what are you trimming them to?
Crap ammo? Crap gun? Both?
/k/ says it's the gun. Waffen Werks quality has gone downhill in the past year, and apparently they're being assholes about their warranty as well. The CEO reportedly told one person the gun's chamber doesn't accept surplus, and only will feed Wolf 5.45

Cost wise, yes. the reason it polishes nicely, is the rouge imbedded in the media. Switch to CC, or walnut (bedding) with some NuFinish car polish and see the difference. Put the media in tumbler add cap of polish, run tumbler 20-30 min, then add the brass and dryer sheet.
