This is a long read but this is an ALL TIME CLASSIC!


Jason Lu...(aka Smokin here on the Hide) man you are a great sport and if we didn't like you as much as we do ...we wouldn't screw with you like we do.

The best thing about this was it wasn't planned at all. Jason B (aka 4thSeal) just threw it out there and we went from there........ Jason is Medic76 below.

This whole deal happened via IM while chatting about what Jason B. was getting done to his rifles @ Jerry Newman’s shop.

jasonlu says:
What are you getting done?

[email protected] says:
He is changing the bolt fluid on my actions.

jasonlu says:
WTF?

Vu says:
Don’t u do that on your surgeons?
Change the bolt fluid?
Tell me u do man
For fuck sake tell me u do.

jasonlu says:
WTF
u 2 are full of shit

Vu says:
Inside the bolt body
ok
have u taken the firing pin
all the way apart?

jasonlu says:
yes
well taken the pin out of hte bolt,..yes

Vu says:
Not just out…. APART

jasonlu says:
no

Vu says:
So u really never had it all apart?

[email protected] says:
Allows for less friction and faster lock time

Vu says:
Well not only that

jasonlu says:
There is fluid INSIDE the pin?

Vu says:
But u know how mercury recoil thing works right?

jasonlu says:
no

Vu says:
OK
Imagine this……

[email protected] says:
I had a mercury guild rod in my Glock
It’s nice

Vu says:
You have a pipe....

[email protected] says:
Less recoil

Vu says:
It’s only filled half with fluid.
What happens when u shake it?

jasonlu says:
momentum

Vu says:
EXACTLY!
Now imagine that in your firing pin assembly.


[email protected] says:
Changing the fluid keeps from having a light primer strike

Vu says:
I have it on my KMW and GAP
All of them.

jasonlu says:
So they drill out the pin and put fluid in it?

Vu says:
It’s hollow
Machined process

jasonlu says:
Too much work

[email protected] says:
But you can’t do it at home, needs to be tig welded up, and the mercury is toxic and will fuck you up

jasonlu says:
Mine is fine the way it is
Now I have to call Surgeon and ask for them to do that on my action that I’m getting on Friday

[email protected] says:
So your happy with 3 out of 9 matches? Might be why your shots are inconsistent
If it has been a while

Vu says:
Hold up
You meant u ordered it without?
Man….

jasonlu says:
I didn’t even know it’s an option
Never heard of that shit before…..NEVER

Vu says:
Really?

[email protected] says:
Jerry told me about it, I didn’t know till he told me

Vu says:
Tell u what
Don’t call surgeon bro
I’d call Jerry up
cheaper
probably faster
Just tell him u want your firing pin bolt lube changed
Like you did for Jason Boak, Vu, and the rest of the boys

jasonlu says:
How much?
Do I just send him my bolt?

[email protected] says:
Like 50 bucks plus shipping

Vu says:
Yup
Just the bolt

[email protected] says:
He just needs the bolt

Vu says:
You have a few different options
There is medium weight
Light weight

jasonlu2 says:
What’s the benefit?

Vu says:
and extra heavy weight
Well….

[email protected] says:
Do you want Jerry’s number?

jasonlu says:
what did you do?

Vu says:
Extra heavy = more momentum right? And it takes the vibration out of the wobble in the pin


jasonlu says:
Why would anyone go light then?

[email protected] says:
Faster

Vu says:
Consistent burns
harder hitting
like cold starts on your motor type of deal

[email protected] says:
Heavy hits harder, for hard primers
Light is faster for fast lock times

Vu:
You ever have a round not fire?
Due to cold?

jasonlu says:
yes, in phoenix.

Vu says:
like so fucken cold the mother fucker won’t go off
Well heavy weight lube helps

jasonlu says:
but not due to cold obvious

jasonlu says:
I think it was a bad primer

Vu says:
well thats different
we talkin
like COLD
ass freezin cold

jasonlu says:
never shot in that cold weather

Vu says:
yah
call up jerry bro

jasonlu says:
I lived in TX and shoot in Sac..doestn get cold
whats his #?

Vu says:
XXX-XXX-XXXX

jasonlu says:
I’ll send him my shit today

[email protected] says:
XXX.XXX.XXXX or XXX.XXX.XXXX are his numbers

jasonlu says:
what state does he live in?

Vu says:
0097 is the best number
Oklahoma
He actually pioneered the process

jasonlu says:
Why don’t more people talk about it?

Vu says:
It’s like well kind of a trade secret
a few know about it but you know…
Keep it on the down low
Only a few do it right because if u don’t do it right
fucks up the harmonics of the firing pin

jasonlu says:
Why don’t you just use a heavier spring?

Vu says:
Think about it
You can only use so much of a heavy spring

JasonLu says:
and then dampen it to take care of the harmonics?

Vu says:
yah
well
ok
springs right

[email protected] says:
heavy springs add to the harmonics

Vu says:
what makes them heavier?
bigger coils
heavier steel

[email protected] says:
tighter etc

Vu says:
You can only fit so much in a bolt

jasonlu says:
How fast can he turn that around?

Vu says:
Not like u can shove a car size spring like a in a bolt.

Dude a week if that

[email protected] says:
3 days soon as he gets it

Vu says:
Call jerry

jasonlu says:
Too late?

Vu says:
Tell him Vu and Jason said u can hook me up
Nah

jasonlu says:
calling

[email protected] says:
He works from home


As most of you have guessed, Jerry Newman of Newman Precision got a pretty weird phone call yesterday afternoon. After work I called Jerry up to explain to him WTF a bolt lube change was and he had a good chuckle.
 
Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

Trade secret...

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!

Thats priceless!
 
Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

Kinda like sending the new guy to the parts house for some muffler barrings.

Or tell your dad's helper to get the camo paint out of the paint trailor. Spent three hours going thru paint cans till dad come looking for his help.
 
Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

19yrs. old first day on the job with a pipe layin outfit you guessed it some smartass that had been there two weeks asked me if I would go get the pipe stretchers off the truck. I turned and took one step and said is that in the compartment where the Hyperbolic Modulators are kept. He did not know what to say! Priceless!

Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

I used to pull stuff like that on new aircraft mechanics right out of school.
Assigned them to locate 100 feet of flight line and put it into the maint. van and after they got that had to get a 55 gallon drum of prop wash. Two guys looked for half the night, and never caught on until the rest of the shop started laughing at them at 2am. The next new guys started, and the other guys pull the same trick on them.

Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

I'm not a supporting vendor, so keep it on the down low and don't tell the mods.... I can hook you up with a harmonically balanced mercury filled firing pin for only $30!
 
Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

Its like sending the new guys at the electrical supply house looking for PVC ground Rods, tell em to call me when they actually find them

Back in high school I worked at a movie theater. Had the new geek go and fill the drinking fountains with water from a 5 gal. bucket every day for a week. The look on customers face was priceless!

Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

We tell the new cable installers that there is a free set of linesman pliers at the bottom of every new bucket of cable lube...funny to watch them go diving in to be the first to get the new set...lol
 
Re: Did you change your bolt fluid? LMAO.

We had a kid at work with a flat tire a couple of winters back.
After he used the shop air we asked if he put a can of winter air in too.

Couple of the other guys took him to the hardware store.
He asked the clerk and he said just got it in for the season!
Had him look through a couple isles, before saying must have sold out. The clerk sent him to the napa store!

There he asked the owner.
Owner asked his name and where he worked.
Said I know your boss and am going to call him to see what kind of idiots he was hiring!
