Don’t be afraid to use some heat, a I have a small torch for soldering, or lighting the occasional stogie. 18mm open end wrench, and it was pretty easy work…

If I can cut down time spent with a metal pick/razor blade scraping carbon, I’ll be happy. But I only have a few hundred rounds through a fresh cleaning, so I think I’m going to wait until I’m at/near 1K round count, then let it soak overnight in some breakthrough…just to see. Appreciate the...

I've read that too. Breakthrough is safe for all metals and is reusable if you filter the old fluid back into the bottle.

Ahhh...ultra sonic vs soak. Yep... Got You. My harbor freight ultra sonic don't do much.... And I agree way too much time spent with a blade and pick to clean. Hoping a long soak will yield better results! I did anti seize all threaded portions of my Rugged. I also bought rubber strap...

I’m planning on letting the whole can soak in breakthrough overnight when it’s ready… I don’t know if 25 minutes is enough soak.

I hear all points here. Rugged says 1K rounds. I'm on with that... And since they would handle warranty if needed...

Recommendations vary 100%. Rugged suggests 1K rounds. I’ve gone as high as 500…and I have shot supersonic through it. I may… just give it the dip and get it clean, and then just run it. With all the carbon build up, my ADHD doesn’t let me let it go longer… :)

I’ve got a Tri Lug and Obsidian 9. It’s a great combo. I’ve got about 300 rounds through it since the last cleaning, the old fashioned way… I’m gonna get about 500 or so more through it and give the breakthrough solution a shot… love shooting it, but man, cleaning baffles suck :)

I also read elsewhere it works with stock brace…and like Sharks I use it on my stocker…. Brace, not vein..to be clear.

Same one I got. I don’t have the energy to debate good/bad/legal/illegal/gray/black/white. LOL.

I have tried the 147 Hush already, it’s possible I tried the 165. My buddy at the range had some, I honestly don’t remember which grain they were TBH. They didn’t perform any better than the Syntech. I had issues with Freedom Munitions a couple years ago, and haven’t been back...

Yep. Over 35,000 rounds over the past few years in various pistols. Find a good reloader... Save money...Shoot more.

I’m closing in on 2K rounds with mine, 90% suppressed. Had some cracked mags, although they all fired fine. One was cracked bad up top, the reset were down the tubes. Zero feed/fire issues of any kind, I’m in search of the perfect subsonic round, both for noise AND price. I’ve put 115 to 158...

Easily over 5K through my old prodigy with the Dawson toolless. Sold to a friend, probably north of 7K by now, zero issues. I put a fresh recoil spring in when I sold it, just because… I’d take the Dawson over the EGW any day of the week. EGW makes outstanding gear… but the Dawson it true...

4 new from Mag Shack have the identical part number as those I received under warranty from SA. I’ve got 10 mags, all numbered/lettered. As noted, the new 4 from SA and the new 4 from MagShack can only load 30 rounds instead of 31.. I’ll have to take a look at the springs and followers. I...

Long term…new mag reliability, no idea yet. But, put around 400 or so down range yesterday, mix of 124 and 147, suppressed and open. To be 100% clear, new mags, cracked old mags, ZERO feed/malfunctions of any kind. My goal was to see if the 124 gr reloads I shoot (Ammunition Planet Oak Island)...

I’ll most likely pick one up when they release a comp version. My Shield Plus Comp is my favorite EDC. I always carry it with the 13 rounder, my XXL hands simply need the extension, that 10 rounder leaves my pinky hanging. It would be nice, if S&W could work on slide weight and spring rate...

Got my mags in the mail, took a few weeks, but I knew that coming into how hot these are selling. Overall construction looks to be the same, but… I can no longer stuff 31 rounds in, 30 is maxed out. That’s either using my loader or by hand. When I have more time, I’ll take one apart and compare...

Overwatch Precision or Tyrant. I’ve long been a fan of the Apex stuff for M&Ps…but recently had a kit for an M&P Comp Carry I really didn’t care for. Weight was no where near where Apex said, and they’re usually pretty good for their accuracy. I had a tyrant in my old Echelon 4.0c along with...

I’ve had zero issue running any ammo through mine. The Federal AE and Syntec are both flat nose…zero issues. 50 HST through, all the rest round nose ammo. 30 rounds go pretty quick.. :)
