Night Vision Anyone from Armasight on the Hide?

I picked up an Armasight Sidekick 640 to play with, and it's got alot of neat features for a little unit.

They recently sent out a firmware update for the device, and it's actually stoopid easy to install. Seems to fix a few minor things... In my case, the B2 button would no longer power the unit down, although it worked fine the rest of the time. After the firmware update, everything is GTG.

The ONE thing that would be nice on the Sidekick would be having an Edge Detection / Outline mode. Especially, if the device is used with a PVS-14... which Armasight goes to great lengths to sell bridges and their own PVS-14 for...

Armasight! Why is there no Edge Detection mode on the Sidekick 640?

Chambering issue after expander mandrell.

Hello gentlemen,
after my last shooting session I measured my cases and I find some differences on headspace.
I tested some charges and the headspace are differenti from the low load to the ho load but from 1.4710" to 1.4700"

So I've made a resetting on the Forster FL Bushing sizing die for a 2 thou down from the fired case headspace, assuming that the 1.4710" of the hi loaded case are the start point.

My scheduling are the following:
- Bump the shoulder without the bushing for obtain the 2 thou of headspace (only for One or two case as reference).
Check on the chamber, ok!
- insert the bushing and resize the neck.
Check on the chamber, ok!
The bolt fall down free.
- expand the neck with mandrel.
Check un the chamber, ko!
The bolt don't fall down free, need finger help.

The headspace of the resized case are 1.4690"

I think that the mandrel, when open the neck, open also the apical section of the shoulder and change is angle.

If I think wrong can help me to solve this issue?

Thanks

The Easy Button for overgassed AR-10s: Bootleg BCG Review

Login to view embedded media
As many of us know, most AR-10s are overgassed from the factory. The most controllable way to deal with that is an AGB, but not everyone is willing or able to install one. Enter the Bootleg adjustable BCG. They make them for AR-15s too, of course, but this is the DPMS pattern BCG. TLDW; it works well. My BCA-10 is so overgassed without it that it stovepipes, even with a flow through can. In fact, the rifle runs fine without a can and the BCG set to full suppressed.

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak......

Making a table for the wife lately and Saturday, I did what we are never supposed to do. No gloves on, I was pulling a 6' board through my table saw and I found the blade....

My safety glasses had dust all over them and I just couldn't see the blade that well I guess. my wife was helping catch the boards and watched me do it too and she also said that she didn't think I was that close to it. Yes, I kept working and got all of them ready to join because I'm a man.

Of course this is just one of many accidents. I once caught a metal chuck that came off my lathe with my freaking bear hand (just a reaction to save it from hitting my lathe bed)and had a steel splinter inside my palm for a few days before realizing why it kept hurting so bad. i got it out with a magnet.

Mashed off the end of my left thumb between gears or a flywheel and starter on a log splitter when I was 17, and I've cut myself many times.

So what are the coolest injuries yall have done? Must provide pics or it didn't happen!!!

table and finger for proof

AR9 trigger help.

I built an AR9 some years ago using a quarter circle 10 reciever, barrel, and jp bolt. I couldn’t get my favorite Larue MBT triggers to work so it ended up with a milspec from the spare parts bin.

I have put a few hundred rounds through it and it started to burst fire at the range so I pulled it apart and inspected the trigger but didn’t see any issues. I replaced with another milspec and same thing happened.

I see there are PCC specific triggers, is that because normal AR triggers don’t work? Is there something else I need to look into as to why it keeps burst firing?

I have built a handful of ARs without issue so I don’t believe it’s an assembly problem, but anything is possible.

SOLD SOLD: Ruger M77/17 Clark Custom Guns 17 WSM

Selling Ruger M77/17 modified by Clark Custom Guns

I purchased this as a complete 17 WSM rifle then sent it to Clark Custom Guns and had it worked over/tuned it up with a custom fluted 21.5" barrel with 1/2-28 threads, tactical bolt knob, extended mag release, and a Boyds stock with an adjustable cheek piece that has been glass bedded. Does include a Weigand picatinny rail adapter (not shown). I will include the remaining 5 of boxes of Winchester 20 grain ammo.

Has a total of 200 rounds down the tube as of the target shown below. It has been sitting in the back of the safe and has spent more time being moved around in the safe than being used. After scratching the stock with a bolt from another gun in the gun safe, I decided it was time to get rid of a couple things. (Scratched both sides below the action, shown in pictures)

Scope with rings NOT included but will consider selling at additional cost... SHV in mils.

Shoots about 1 MOA at 100 yards with Winchester ammo and KG Made can. (only ammo I had on hand).

Price Dropped 09.23.24 to: $1,400.00
