Shitpost / Memes Did the toonie trick on my TM22

Post image

Did the good ol toonie trick on the butt end of my TM22 because I was too lazy to get a washer but after a day at the range I felt something shake in the stock. Guess I have a legit washer now.

Could someone not just 3D print spacers/buffers with TPU?

Sure if you have a 3D printer. Doesn't make much sense to mass produce them for sale when you can fix it for literally $2.

I get that but not everything needs to be some big project cost. I used to 3d print shit like that in bundles for a couple bucks but the gun sites warned me I couldnt unless I made a business account even though I clearly wasn't profiting

Maybe a gun store would buy a batch of them but even if you sell them for 10 cents and mail them in an envelope it's at best 50 cents cheaper than throwing a toonie in it and most people will already have a toonie.

Fair but metal hitting metal cant be nice. Weird design anyways to have a consumable part with no replacement available

Turkish engineering at its finest. I just took mine apart again after 2500 rounds with the toonie installed everything still looks good.

I mean, if there's a CAD file flying around and you already have a 3D printer, people can print them out for 20 cents or less.

Yeah like I said, "if you have a 3D printer" sure it's a good idea to make one for yourself. To make them for other people it's hardly worth it unless you feel like running a Charity for the guy with a $600 gun that can't find a toonie kicking around somewhere.
