If money is no object, I would go Hiperfire. For a lower budget, cmc is great. I have multiple triggers of both brands in various guns and think they’re both great triggers. I’ve also had to have 1 of each replaced by the manufacturer. Customer service from both companies was equally excellent. I have only had one rise trigger and it didn’t work out of the box, wouldn’t reset properly. This was a couple years ago in a 223 rifle though.

If you have the budget for it, JP all the way. And there are some decent deals to be found on used ones if you are patient and look around. I have a GMR with the brekke barrel/comp/handguard I bought used a few months ago and love it. I also have a few builds I’ve put together and reliability has been good on those too. However home builds sometimes require a little tinkering to make reliable. Family obligations often limit range time so I would go with the option that requires less tinkering.

Just wondering if anyone has modified or attempted to modify GL9 21 rounders to squeeze in 22 reloadable? I’m playing around with one right now to see if I can do it. If someone has already done it I’m open to suggestions.

What material are the rollers made of? Brass? Polymer?

Just my opinion, but why would you ever wanna take off and on a laser or offset red dot during a match? Probably not gonna be zeroed when you put it back on. As for the bipod and light, I wouldn’t consider those significant modifications to the gun. They are accessories just like mags. You can use mags of all different sizes and with or without extensions based on what you feel is most suitable for the course of fire. Seems like lights and bipods should be the same.

Could it be a burr/sharp edge on the extractor? It’s a 1911 style extractor, right? If you have some small files you can try to radius the bottom inside corner of the extractor. That may help. If it’s too sharp, sometimes this will prevent rounds from feeding properly because they can’t slide up behind it. Like TRUBL said, 1911-101. JMO.

I have the tried both the Taccom plastic buffer and the SCS in the same rifle with LMOS BCG and adjustable gas. I won’t be spending the money on the SCS in the future. TACCOM buffer is just as good or better for way cheaper. My 2 cents.

So did anybody get one of these yet? Impressions? Feedback? Looking at it for a new toy, thanks for any input.

I have built both a 8.5" and a 16" AR40 PCC. Never shot either one over a chrono because I shoot factory ammo. If I can, I'll try and make it out to the range this week and get some chrono readings for both uppers. I'll post them here.

Nitro, I would pull out your firing pin and spring and check that neither of them are broken.

I have this same deformation on all my glock mags that are used in my PCC. Like others have said, I just press it back straight and keep shooting. Haven't seen it cause any significant issues.

I use Adidas Acadia trail running shoes. I think they changed the name to Rockadia now. They have a very aggressive tread pattern and they're only about $50 at Academy stores.

MBX also just recently released a pinned barrel/comp. That would probably be my choice. http://mbxextreme.com/index.php?page=PCC_Barrel_Handguard#barrel

Whatever works, at least you have some kind of backup aiming device. I don't have lasers on any of my guns, but I think it would take me longer to hunt for that dot on a distant target than to use my sights. Probably a great option up close though. To each their own.

I have backup/flip up irons on my PCC. Even if it is just a game gun, who wants to throw away a stage or a match because their red dot fails? Not me, that's for sure. I have seen a lot of red dots fail, from cheap ones all the way up to $600 aimpoints. Is it life or death? No. But a set of Magpul BUIS don't add enough weight to be concerned about and are cheap insurance that could save your stage or match. Especially if it's a bigger match or one you had to travel very far to attend.
