Recommended setup for converting my 556 SBR?
grsdoug replied to Bagellord's topic in Pistol Caliber Carbine
I run the Stern Defense magwell conversion and their 8.5 inch upper on my LMT SBR lower. Super reliable and accurate. -
Definitely do not loosen the mag release, could cause mags to drop out under recoil. As suggested download a couple. Also practice loading with the mag full (at whatever capacity minus two) to get used to seating a loaded mag. Also watch the angle of the mag, keep the front level as the can be a tendency to drop the front. I use the “beer can” grip on the mag, it’s not like a pistol mag.

I run TTI +11 for most things. I use the 30s for reloads as there is more to grab than the 20s. I have only used the 20s for benching loads.

Over 15,000 trouble free rounds though my Gen II MPX. I have shot nothing but 124 PD JHP and 4.0 grain Titegroup. runs like a sewing machine. I have observed most troubles are with people running super lite loads, coated bullets, or messed with the springs/ports. I ran with the original extractor/spring for the first 12,000 rounds. I run a BCM spring/insert. The donut added too much tension.

I put together a Spike's lower with the SBA3 brace and a Stern Defense conversion and Stern 8.5 inch upper for a home defense pistol. Using an Aimpoint T1, Crimson trace laser and light. I currently run Winchester 147 Silvertips, which are low recoil and low flash. Unless you run suppressed, pistol caliber works fine, look at the millions of subguns used effectively for decades.

I run a Comp Tac 2 o'clock IWB. https://comp-tac.com/2-oclock-iwb-right-hand-holster-appendix-holster-comp-tac/

I have over 12 thousand round on a Timney MPX gen 1 trigger with no excessive wear in my Gen 2 MPX. I do use captured pins. Failure to eject can be extractor spring related, I use a BCM spring and insert with no donut. I tried A standard spring and insert and got failures to eject before installing the BCM. The donut caused too much tension and would not snap over cartridge case Causing a failure to go into battery.

Rear Ameriglo Suprressor height sights keep shifting right
grsdoug replied to ForestGump's topic in Glock
Ameriglo sights are very soft. You might try peening the bottom or use a punch to create a little extra material on the sight. -
Been running Hackathorn’s on my 17s and 19s for years, same issue, although I recently found out I have cataracts in both eyes now. Lots of light visible with the wide notch, orange stands out well. They do cover small plates and distant targets, but they were made for another purpose. That said, over the last six months I have switched to a Trijicon RMR on my 19 and it is superior to any irons (I do have backups) for my eyes, even with my glasses off. RMRs are pretty street proven. Dots are not just for games anymore.
