    Spoken like a true AMP owner :thumbsup: I figured the same and just shelled out and got the best. Just like buying premium scopes etc, part of the investment in quality.

    If you go and read and watch the AMP videos you will realise it is futile to flame anneal and get consistent results. End of story. Next question Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

    There is nothing worse (there probably is) than doing load development and the Labradar doesn't pick up a shot. This often happens with a suppressor as the reduced noise doesn't set off the...

    I am occasionally using some AR2201 I bought from Din about 50 years ago and it still seems the same. I havent checked it in the last 5 months but dont think it has deteriorated.

    The first time you clean it will make or break the habit!! The best cleaning tip I ever saw, was to hang it on the rose while taking a shower! There’s some funny folk shooting that black stuff!
