I have GAS!!!!!

[KimberPB]

Hay you know Fathers Day is coming up. I bet that great Father of yours would love to get that for Fathers day. AND HE IS LEFT HANDED

Well, I knew I was coming up next month and just wanted to get a new toy for both of us to enjoy! lol.

RB you think perhaps PB will pass the GAS

Oh don't worry I'll be visiting KimberRB in a few weeks but I'm not sure if he'll wants me passing GAS or not! lol.

Oh now that's just sick.

PB that is one slick looking unit. I watched a special on the Military Channel and they were running the demo on the full auto version of that gun. Very impressive. Will need range porn and full performance review as requested by Ricbak, ASAP...

Peace...

Will do. I hope to make it to the range in a few days!

Congrats on the new toy PB! I started to buy one a while back but held off because of reports of it deforming brass. I'm interested in finding out if you have this problem or not. Being a blow-back operated firearm the extreme pressures causes the tapered shoulder to deform. It bulges out the taper. This shouldn't be detrimental to the firearm but does cut down the life of the brass for reloading. Some claimed that they were only able to get one reload before the brass cracked. I'm not sure that annealing will prolong the life since it's a pronounced bulge. If you can please post some pictures of the brass. Reloadable or not I know you are going to have some fun!

Had not heard that Red Hat but I will look into it and let you know what I see. That would be a bummer since I planned on getting a set of 5.7 dies.

I did some research on reloading 5.7 x 28 and it looks like they are reloading them without any major problem. There were a few old post about the bulge but now it seems that if you take your time they'll do OK. I guess it all depends on how bad a particular firearm deforms the case and reloading life. Maybe someone that reloads them will chime in on this. One thing I read was not to tumble the brass since it has a special polymer coating for extraction and magazine feed.

Thanks for the info Red Hat. As far as the polymer coating I'll have to look into that. I know the rounds I received with the gun do not appear to have any kind of coating on them. Thanks again I'll have to do a little google searching.

On a side note I did find a few places I can have the barrel cut down to the true P90 lenght. Just have to figure out if I want to drop the $200 for the SBR stamp.
