OG65 Evaluation Q&A

[ID-Muley]

Mine was a little sticky after taking on and off but I just wiped my muzzle threads clean and has been smooth as butter since. Super easy.

When I got mine (one of the first ones) I flushed it with a garden hose/commpressed air/caned powder blaster then grease on the threads. No issues on 5 different guns.

How the funk do you clean the threads inside the can?

carb cleaner, with the straw nozzle attached

I got the raw finish and wouldn’t elect to do that again solely because the two ends that were machined are polished and very shiny. Not what one wants on a hunting can.

Hmmm. I’ve also got a raw one on the way and I certainly don’t want the front end to be shiny either.

Maybe hit it with a torch until you get some gold or purple color.

@wind gypsy - I'm guessing you already know about this, but just in case not (or for anyone else) high-temp spraypaint can work well also. Sold not only in auto parts stores, but often in hardware stores for re-touching woodstoves.

Would that even take the sheen off of it?

I used basic camo spray paint on a shiny aftermarket flat cap for a scythe and it worked enough. Scratches off easily but at least it’s not a 1.5” circle mirror.

I don’t know. Sandpaper then. This seems very solvable.

 

[Axlrod]

If you can see what color it is while you are shooting. You're probably missing something.

I really like the raw finish, would be awesome if the whole thing looked that way or just the ends were bead blasted. No idea how difficult that’d be to do. Agree with @Antares, easily fixable
