    CF Wrap of LW 0.59" (15mm) Barrel?

    Has anyone done this? Take a CF tube and wrap a LW barrel? Does a LW barrel this thick even need it? The FX noodle liners definitely a yes..lol If you did wrap the LW barrel, what dimensions did the CF tube have? Was an ID on the CF tube matching the 15mm OD of the LW suitable or too tight...

    RTI P1 Compact Working Shroud project

    Well…I finally got around to finishing my RTI P1 Compact Working Shroud project. RTI-P1C-WS The standard shroud IMO is just a barrel centering device. Depending on the barrel length and shroud configuration, there is between 1”-4” of empty space in the shroud. There are no stock baffles...

    RTI Transfer Port - Optimal Size

    Curious if anyone has played with polishing or changing Transfer Port sizes on the RTI barrels.. I measured the TP on some of the barrels I have and found the following.. LW .30 is 0.223 x 0.223 LW .25 is 0.198 x 0.223 CZ .25 is 0.195 x 0.195 In the above, the first measurement is the "width"...

    RTI Shroud - Thunk vs Tink

    Maybe discussed before, but I searched and didn't find anything.. So I had my RTI .30 out and was changing to a different moderator. Accidentally bumped the shroud with my thumb..TINK. Well, that's weird..never noticed that before. Got out my RTI Compact and tried the same thing..THUNK...

    Scope Ocular Lens Focus (not to be confused with Objective Focus)

    So the standard way to do this is: Point scope at a plain bit of sky or white wall/piece of paper through the scope. close your eyes Open your eyes and adjust reticle focus. repeat until you think the reticle is "sharpest" When I do the above method with scopes that have an IR feature, the...

    Nature For Moderator Internals

    Was thumbing through a NatGeo magazine and saw the origami picture and immediately thought of 3D-printed cone baffles. Then read the article about otters and maybe a 3D-printed version of otter hair instead of felt. Last but not least, honeycomb hex shapes to trap air. Too much time on my...

    DonnyFL Yokozuna VS Huma40

    There’s already a couple threads on the new DFL, but I thought I’d start a new one so as not to hi-jack the existing ones… So here’s some feedback on the DFL vs the Huma40. The DonnyFL Yokozuna is out of the box stock. The Huma40 has the “Avalanche” inserts, but they aren’t stock. They...

    Delrin For Moderator Baffles?

    Has anyone tried using Delrin for moderator baffles? It's easy to machine..easier than aluminum.. I'm thinking of making an attachment to replace the RTI barrel centering part with the teeny-tiny (semi-useless) holes. The hole size just seems insufficient to allow air to pass into the...

    M-Pro7

    Does anyone have any feedback on using this product for cleaning airgun barrels? Does it damage o-rings? I visited their website, but couldn't find any FAQs or other info..might have to call their 800# The info says cleans lead, carbon, and brass..

    Machining Question

    OK, I've got a sherline mini lathe and I'd like to machine some o-ring grooves. What type tool is best for cutting an o-ring groove in aluminum or delrin? Are there specialized tools or cutters? Could a thread-cutter be used...

    Muzzle Brake Within Shroud?

    So.. Is there any reason a muzzle brake could not be placed inside a shroud? There's a couple of new muzzle brake add-ons for after the air goes through a moderator. The RTI P1 has a barrel spacer.."doughhnut with holes"..that allows air back into the shroud. It's not really a brake per se...

    Scope Turret Magnifier..

    ..by Vector Optics. Just got a marketing e-mail from them describing their "new" scope turret magnifier with a bubble level. IDK..adding the bubble level seems as though it would get snagged or have the tendency to get hooked on something and break. So I thought it would be far cooler to...

    Caddyshack 2023..

    Earlier this week I was feeling like Chevy Chase. A pocket gopher parachuted into our front yard and began digging and eating. Just like Chevy, I began my battle against the invader. I tried GopherHawk traps..something that has always worked in the past..nope. Then I tried poison..nope...

    Has Anyone Used..

    Kevlar.. ..as opposed to felt or burlap inside a moderator? I tried some burlap wrapped around some of the inserts in a Huma section and it audibly changed the sound signature. Was thinking Kevlar might work and last longer than burlap Thoughts?

    RTI Barrel Washer

    Does anyone know the best method for removing the barrel washer. Tried with a glove..no luck. Is it epoxied? Would a little heat break it free? Does any one know the thread pitch..is it 12x1 ? https://www.rtiarms.shop/en-us/collections/spare-parts/products/barrel-washer-spare-part-rti-prophet-11
