Will this media smooth the cases at all? Specifically wondering about extraction marks and gouges as these present a problem with a finicky SMG.

No, SS media will remove tarnish without leaving marks on the brass. If your brass is already scratched or marred or marked, SS media will not remove those marks. Otherwise, damage to the brass would occur during the ordinary SS wet tumbling process.

Maybe. Cases come out gleaming, but not sure if serious gouge marks are smoothed out. Doesn't matter in my case because I will never go back to walnut shells again. You buys these one time and you are done buying anything again.

I love the cases but would not give it high marks for grip. It's very smooth.

M. T., I thank you for this question, and for its synchonicity. I had wondered if others were having the same question, and part of my professional work is investigating esoteric information exactly like this. The Genuine Issue mag bar appears to be identical, except a bit darker in color. Striker is good on both DM's and GI's, nice spark. But caveat emptor as always, because there are rumors on YouTube that a counterfeit mag bar is out there, and its tiniest shavings require less than an acetylene torch but more than a spark to ignite... The GI bar I tested worked well enough, though. Perhaps the tiniest bit less well than the DM, but that may be subjective. Will study this further. -GDT

I have some small barely noticeable rub marks where the top clip touches the protective cover. They don't bother me at all. It's a good tradeoff because my phone has never fallen out of the holster. Pull the trigger already.

Honestly, the rough powder coat is only a very brief annoyance. If you are actually using this knife as intended, trust me, the roughness of the finish only sticks around for the first 4-5 logs that you split. After that it smooths out rather nicely and is completely a 100% non-issue. Show me someone that complains about the roughness of the finish, and I'll show you someone who babies their knife and doesn't use it.

Here is a complete product review I did on that Gun Case.http://askafirearmsquestion.blogspot.com/2015/01/firearm-forum-question-reviewing.html

I had to increase my PSI to get proper volume applying lacquer. I started out following the recommendations but that would not work for me. Certainly could be something wrong with my setup. Guns work very well and I certainly recommend for a lower priced gun.

Kind of, I was hoping..the grind is really good but the static can drive you crazy. If you find something that works, let me know. You really need to clean it out with each use.

I'm not familiar with that media... nut shells are what are usually used. Or corn cob media. When cartridge brass is being cleaned.

I run a couple swabs of M-Pro 7 gun cleaner down the barrel first. Next I run the copper remover down the barrel as instructed. It works wonders.

I don't know what you call smooth but I can tell you I have had mine for over 2 years & id the best gun I have had it is a little quitter than the spring loaded type.Once you get it scooped in you can't miss. oil it about every 1000 pellets ,It's a great gun BUY IT

My rifles came from Walmart shipped directly to my home. No cosmoline on either, just a very light coating of gun oil. Don't use copper brushes just a good stiff synthetic. Make sure you get all of the lubricant out of the tube. If not you are going to be surprised with the bang you will get. I did not clean my .177 as thoroughly as I should have and the first pellet sounded like a ma duce going off.Keep them all in the X ring.Semper FiMolon LabeCHS USMCL

It seems polished, quite smooth. I doubt that would be an issue. (I have it in a thin elago case, so with that it's a moot point.)

I have been using them for a year or so and see no deterioration yet. I just worked with my .416 Africa PH rifle and as a final bore prep used a light coating of metal preserving type fluid, which I flushed out with the squeege, as shooting with an oily bore is not good. Using the squeegee in this manner, it should last many years. All can say.

My G29 with a crimson trace has no issues and the laser is on the side. A g29 has a wide slide. If I remember I'll look more closely when I get home and let you know more.

The bottom is indeed smooth and should not scratch the glass used for ranges. As for its performance, I am unable to answer because my experience with this product is on my gas range.

Yes, I grease both my Ingersoll and my Nitrocat impact guns with one of these. My impacts are both composite. It sure beats taking the hammer case apart to grease the guns!
