Haven’t found an answer for this.
As the title says, can Atlas 2011 mags in 9mm be tuned for reliable lock back with a Grams FKS-11 spring and follower kit?
In other words can the follower position be tweaked low enough so that there is no premature lock back with one round in the mag?
Or is it not a battle worth fighting if you want your mags to lock back and to stick with the standard or +1 Atlas lock back follower?
With the current prices on AK imports, best value and quality is the Zastava ZPAP M70.
If you are going to spend $1,700 on a Bulgarian milled receiver AK, may as well look at the Galil ACE in 7.62x39 as well.
Like the title says, is the Coda Evolution handguard compatible with the QC10 side charging upper receiver or does the diameter block or hide too much of the side charging handle?
This. I took my SP01 bladetech holster and gently heated the bottom part and shoved the pistol with bull shadow upper in until it was properly seated and it was done.
Works great!
As an example the QC10 GSF is listed as prohibited in Canada. However there are the QC5 and CLT lowers that are not listed.
QC10 uppers are PCC specific and can be argued are not AR uppers....
Don’t eyeball your gas block installation.
Mic the distance from the barrel shoulder to the start of the gas port. Now mic the distance from the back of the gas block to the start of the gas hole. You will more than likely have a 0.02-0.03” difference.
Use a feeler guague up against the barrel shoulder to ensure correct offset.
Another trick is to cut the end of a toothpick and drop it into the gas block hole (make sure your gas metering screw is all the way out). Position the barrel with the gas port facing down then slip the gas block on upside down. Turn the assembly right side up and look down the bore. Wiggle the gas block around. When the holes are aligned the toothpick will drop from the gas block into the barrel. Tighten gas block. The toothpick piece should fall out of the barrel, if not use a rod to push it out. All done and gas block will be perfectly aligned.
