The 'What have you just broken' Thread

We XDM and two magazines :wub:
The wrong thread are you in, my young Patticake!

 
On course to break my bank balance if I get the bottle to click buy

 
Me fckin WE Glock, idk was re-assembling it and now the slide is completely stuck part way on. I'm a right clumsy bastard!

Think the hammer thing was still up which is what must be blocking the slide from moving - I realised as soon as I'd done it but yeah damage is done now

Can't think how to reverse it as I can't disassemble the slide nor the frame enough from the outside

 
I had this before and it was possible in the TM to reset the hammer through pulling a piece of floss down the slide and against the hammer, but I'm not sure how that would go down for you.

Well it's worth a go! I'll try and find some. Thanks very much for the tip mate! Hope it works out

 
I was lucky because it was a new slide and I'd not properly fitted it so it was loose and getting the floss in was pretty straight forward. I hope it works out for ya.

so i swapped the lens on my sj4000 to a 25mm one, unfortunately the lens doesn't have an IR filter ...... good for low light, not for day

had to buy an IR cut 25mm lens

 
I am guessing the clone comtac headsets don't like a little rain.

Mine gave up half way through my day yesterday. Just won't turn on now! Seen the "click" from the buttons has gone and it's just soft.

 
I had the glass of my cheap taclight on my rifle shot out again yesterday. The last time I replaced the really thin glass (the torch is a cheap china clone) with a small watch lens which I hoped would be stronger. Evidently not thick enough. I may try getting some perspex to see if that works better. The annoying part was not the broken glass but that the light only stayed on intermittently and was not reliable.

eBay item number 171861257331 ;)

 
And here's a link to that guy who will cut perspex to whatever diameter and width you want really cheap in about a day: http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/bobbyboy0177 - a few of us have used him now.

How did you break it?
The windage and elevation was wobbly and wouldn't go straight. Took it apart to see if i could fix it.

Sheared screws and windage dial.

The scope is fine, I will just have to jury rig it to another mount.
