As long as you take care of the coating and load plinker loads you can get 5 to 7 reloads on the brass. At this point the coating will give out, but not an issue since the shoulder will give out and most importantly the primer pockets. 5.7 is hell on primer pockets, even with light loads. Often prim...

With the American Eagle ammo, made by Fiocchi, all the time. Also welcome to the forum.

Here you go,

Well no matter what pistol you fire 5.7 from it puts brass in low earth orbit, much CZ's do.

If you had a FsN I would recommend My/EA's HD recoil spring.

Less shoulder movement, up tick in velocity and the brass only flies 8 feet.

They are in stock now, we had them just needed to sync website with what is on the shelf.

You're new here, I am Jay, owner of EA.

Give me a minute and I will explain .

No NO and I mean NO. Using a small amount of fast powder behind a bullet technically to heavy for the 5.7 will NOT end well.

Went live earlier.

If prices are to good to be true

Excellent data!!!!!!!

OK, I will look into it to see if I can create one.

Not sure who you tried to contact

No they aren't OEM and they are pure shit.

Their springs suck.

The feed lip area of their mags fall apart and often owners have to glue them back together.

Their feed rollers often have flash on them also causing issues.

Does it have the correct bend in it?

Brand new platform. I know lugs like this need, NOT the rest of the gun, but the lugs are going to need a heavier lube.

So it might need the grease.

I think you should use a torque wrench and a crush washer to make sure the flash suppressor is tightened firmly.

The issue is the barrel on the P90/PS90 needs to be able to move. It's designed to have a certain amount of barrel movement. remove this movement and it won't function correctly

FNH Recently revised their P90/PS90 mold. Makes sense, they have been using the same molds for decades and molds do wear out. FNH took the chance to increase the strength of their receiver including a weak spot known to crack and fail. Generally every place they could make it thicker they did. Video...

Welcome to the Forum


Yes, keep in mind the S&W is brand new. The FsN has been around since 1992.

There are some very important announcements coming soon.

Nothing anymore, this was from years ago back when forums where booming and server bandwidth was not cheap. It was a way for folks to help support the forum since as now back then was kept AD FREE. look at the date of the post 2013

Welcome to the forum.

The best dies money can buy.

If you take care of your coating and keep your loads at plinker levels x5 is a good target. Besides the coating and shoulder the primer pocket will give out. Even low loads the 4.7 is hell on primers. DON'T fully swage the primer pockets and even if there is a crimp just kiss is enough to get rid of...

And that was the case for FsN's also. Small batches work. Most often there is a build up of coating on the chamber. The reloads work until that coating wears out and then case separations occur. Worst is when you have a neck separation and you don't catch it. You stand a good chance of shooting the ...

The coating is fundamental to the operation of the round. This is a fact.

Did you notice the reduction of the AR15 buffer tube like thunking sound in the stock?

WTF

EA P90/PS90 Extended Charging Handles Back In Stock

They will if you leave the brass in there long enough.

16? OK those were the 36gr versions not the current 27.

We are 3 major revisions out of date and 10 minor versions out of date. We are working on getting it not only fully updated but updating the looks that has not changed in years.

Why the hell is the T6B so slow?????????????????????????? Is it older 40 grain stuff?

YOU LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also while you have to crimp 5.7 for best results be careful to NOT over crimp the VG. If you over crimp the thin jacket will give way and you will crack the epoxy holding the core together causing it to crumble . This will cause the thin jacket to collapse in.

That would be to much agitation. 20 minutes in luke warm water, about 5 to 10% simple green and hand agitate every 5 minutes. Don't use a rich mixture of simplegreen and don't leave it in the simplegreen to long since both actions will remove or soften the coating. Don't under estimate simplegreen, ...

All of this was done back in 2016. Also impact on 1/4 inch weld plate. Now something intersting. Take a good look at the polymer wall of my shoot tube. You will see countless less very small pin holes. When the Barnes VG impacted the steel the BB's burst out all over. These small BB's penetrated the...

OK found some old pics. Some back story, I was having fun and wanted to see what the Barnes Var Grenade would do. You can see the folded up lvl2a panels. Of the three shots one exited the stack of body armor. You can also see the before and after affects on the body armor sandwich, for lack of a bet...

I/EA used the Varmint grande for years. It was brutal on small game, one shot stop yotes. It also had NO issue blowing through a lvl2a vest and making a nice wound channel. Let me dig up some old EA info. EA's VarmenTOR round was one of our very first loads. Fucking screwtube has deleted over half o...

Very true.

You might try and drift the front blade a little.

How many rounds through it?

Holy shit man.

OOOhhhhhhh 5% you need to use 5% Simple green. 50% will eat the coating off and at a min comprise the coating.

Those clips are cheap insurance. Did you use the 3D printed tool?

Well if you can find a used RCBS Trim Pro 2 that uses the plate system. You can find them cheap and I/EA make a plate for it designed for the 5.7.

The stubby 35gr Vmax never really performed well for me. I suspect bullet OAL is the issue. Crimping is an issue. It is hard to get enough bullet in the neck for proper kneck tension and not start to encroach on the ogive. Make sure to clean your chamber with Carb Clean. That low charge is a nice pl...

I would use Blue. If you use red or anything stronger you will be in the shit if you need to disassemble it again.

FYI I have never used a locker of any type on my/EA shop test mule SBR PS90's and P90 and have never had them come loose.

Yes and I have, it's an epic insane procedure designed by patent attorneys to bilk you out of tens of thousands of dollars. And yes I had to take them to court. Fun fact since the assholes at VG didn't spend 20 years testing, and refining the designs they just did a change to avoid violating my pate...

Well neck movement is part of the function of the cartridge. We will see.

No clue. We do need to update the forum. As more folks get sick of antu guin BS on places like fuck book traffic has been going up on this and other forums.

ALL forums are hurting. There are dozens of other options that weren't here 10 years ago. Fuckbook groups for one. That said with more and more people getting banned from fuckbook over guns we are seeing more traffic. Also lets be honest, we are about a niche caliber and a niche firearm platform. We...

Meh honestly the FsN can handle loads well into primer popping, neck separating 65k,. I really would not worry about it. While the S&W uses delayed gas blow back they are also using a rotating barrel with lugs. This system mirrors the lug design used in the Sig Arms Mauser M2 pistol. This area has m...

locked breach will not work with 5.7.


There other in depth conversations in the re loading area about QL just not working for the 5.7

Delayed gas SHOULD be perfect for the 5.7 IF S&W has made a quality fire arm.

Nope, the issue is case size when it comes to slow powders.

Now IF it's a well made pistol the system will make handle hotter loads and faster powders.

YT Deleted my most current one. That might be an old one. Better to watch and follow us here on our Rumble channel for all vids etc.

https://rumble.com/v25uft8-elite ...

Thanks for the update. Went back and watched your install video again and you note to not use the EA rate reducer and the HD springs, as the counteract each other. It begs the question, which one is better to use? I'm running an SBR'd PS90 with a Saker 556K can and handloaded 40gr ammo that's ~200f...

Well the new Ruger 57 pistols are rusting all to hell and Ruger is refusing to do anything about it.

They are finishing up n maufacturing right now. then off to the laser engraver. As soon as they ship to the engraver I will have a final count on how many we have, making these is hell on tool cutters, and I will put them up.

Big flaky ball powder like that does not meter well into the small 5.7 cases. It's really easy to load a over pressure round when you push it to the limits.

Seems you're on to some interesting load data, at least for the Ruger carbine. I wonder how these would do in an AR57 setup with the heavy 8.5oz buffer Toprudder is using for his load development. Regardless, I'd like to get Panzer's take on how these might operate in an SBR'd PS90 or any of the 5....

Neck separation is not the issue. The case not sealing and staying in the chamber would be.

A few months ago I purchased a Labradar when they became available again. I installed the app on my iPhone and all worked great. Then there was an upgrade to the app, and I found out there is a known problem with the latest version, it disconnects at random, and the Labradar settings can't be chang...

Would it work with the latest version of AR57?

Damn that sucks. I do know with all the fuel surcharges shipping charges change almost daily with the volatility f fuel costs. It's a nightmare, it's a result of BBB and it's affecting all of us. . As to the website. I know Paul is not a young techy guy. I am sure his website is managed buy a third ...

Lab Radar is one I haven't, but Matt Hoffman AKA Buffman RANGE, the guy who makes all those video testing my/EA's ammo, he had one for awhile and did NOT like it and had enough issues he stopped using it and went back to the Pro Chrono II. So I trust Matt, a LOT, and his opinions. Combine that with ...

A note on QL. All of their models used for their software simulations are based on US government GI/DOD tests that established parameters based off of current, at the time, military loads. Side note, many of these are from WW2, shot at night over a dead calm lake and looking at the impact points in ...

There is a whole lot here, and thank you for the post. "I also noted that from 8.5gr to 8.8gr, it looked like velocities had leveled out" One thing to keep in mind, the 5.7 case does not seal into the chamber like a conventions cartridge. Essentially while under full pressure the case, your pressure...

Well it is a delayed blow back, just gas operated. Truth be told gas delay is better than mechanical but costs more to make and with S&W track record quality wise the last few years I am not sure just how good this gun it. It's grip angle is shit. I and a few others here have known about it for over...

Nice!

Videos are an issue, other than a link, to host directly in the feed, the forum needs to be updated. We need a new person who knows PHB to go through and update it since we lost our person years ago.

NICE!!!!!!!!!! Who did you have to fuck to get your shit made early?????????

Waiting on the production prototype. Getting materials has delayed my machine shop.

This is why I pre type posts like yours in word. Also helps clean up grammar etc. Although it should not log you off the forum. That's a new one. Log off and then log back in but check the box to keep logged on. See if that fixes it.

I/EA switched from the V-max for the primary reason of performance. While the V-max is a great bullet, it's a very old design. Nolser still makes thier version of the V-max with a green polymer tip and in the past we used that also for the Pro1. Now that said Nosler came out with their newly designe...

40gr Vmax is no joke when loaded to full power. EA used it in the Protector 1 for years until I replaced it with a better, more modern designed Nosler Varmageddon . The 40V-max can easily rip through a lvl2 vest and do massive damage. https://youtu.be/g0RC4_8Nt60 https://youtu.be/2idqn7FM2bo

Sweet!!!!!!

Well that ammo is known for being really bad.

So it's still behaving?

You posted this issue on FB correct? I recommend getting an old plate style Trim Pro and using EA's RCBS 5.7 plate for it?

Welcome to the club!!!!!!

Another brand new owner of an AR57 in one of the FB groups is having this exact same problem of the rounds not chambering all the way.


I shared a link to this post with him


Just a heads up in case this turns into some sort of trend.

The real solution is to start loading on a 550 or 650 :) 550 I would agree, 650 not so much since there is not automated powder check system. This post is a very important lesson about things that can go wrong. Shit happens. It's a cautionary tail about being careful and props to being honest and s...

Welcome to the forum, I have never used that powder in the 5.7 . Someone else might have though.

Your pressure numbers are a little off. FYI technically it's not the firing pin punching the hole but the primer back flowing into the firing pin channel and the channel acting like a hole punch. It can build up over time and, as you witnessed, damage parts. I made a video about what to look for and...

The tray and flashlight is a great way, and about the oldest way to check for double loads.

This is were loading blocks are a lifesaver.

They should not be tight in my gauge.

This is normal movement of the shoulder.
