  1. LOL... I definitely thought this thread was going to be about competing in PCC with a Norinco 320 Uzi. I haven't been this disappointed in a while...
  2. This is what I have decided... just not sure which one. I actually prefer the idea of only messing with the connector too vs. changing out springs. The TTI kit is on it's way back.
  3. I was thinking about this too- I gave it a good, hard squeeze for this reason before removing the backplate. Still no break! That's why I was thinking maybe they sent me a Gen5? The parts and package are not marked in any way. The pistol is an unmolested Gen3 G17.
  4. OK, I did mixed configurations of parts over the last hour and traced the issue to the connector alone. I'm just going to go ahead and return it. I should probably stick to OEM anyway. /thread
  5. Hey guys, I recently picked up and installed a TTI Grand Master 3.5 trigger for the Gen 2/3 Glock. After installing on my Gen 3 Glock 17, I experienced no break. The trigger just goes all the way back to the frame. This was annoying because I had to remove the striker to get the slide off and re-install the back plate. I switched back to the OEM frame parts, put the slide on, and it passed a functions check... so the problem is not in the slide. I re-installed the TTI frame parts and same deal- no break. One more striker removal/tear down and back to all OEM parts and functions check is good. I'm confident in my Glock maintenance skills... so I don't think I'm doing anything wrong... could this be a symptom of a Gen5 kit in a Gen3 gun? Is it normal that these parts came in a little envelope with the TTI logo and a card backing and nothing is marked? Thanks for any help...
  6. Mine do not... ever- 1 x ea. LE6991 and 5.5" TROS 3-lug under YHM rails with a VM-Hytech block running unmodified Uzi mags. What setup are you experiencing this malfunction on?
  7. 1) What's not an MPX killer? Keltec? Hi-Point? Glockaroni? 2) +1 on wondering how this "radial delayed blowback" will hold up, and if early adopters might end disappointed if/ when support is discontinued. 3) Looking at their site- are they really trying to sell that same exact stripped lower as every corner gunstore and small firm... for $375?
  8. I love my SBR'd Scorpion Evo. The recoil is still barely worth mentioning, but the stout nature vs. a "tuned" AR-type means a wider operating margin and greater degree of reliability under various conditions. Mine is accurate and reliable suppressed, un-suppressed, limp-shouldered, dirty, etc... The trigger is fine out of the box, as is the selector.
  9. Disagree with all. The modular magwell allows the user to SBR one lower and change it's feed device, or even caliber later. You could go short and quiet most of the time with a Glock setup, then swap it out for MP5 mags when you're in HK country or take advantage of cheap, reliably sprung Uzi mags... then, think of the possibilities if they made a setup for MP5/10-40 mags. Who knows what 10mm could even do out of a 12.5" barrel? Weight is irrelevant unless it were crazy heavy (it's not) and mil spec triggers are desirable over the other "wonderful" types that exist in the commercial space.
  10. I think one "version" of them *might* be. That's the scam they've been running for years- wandering spec sheet mixing a high-or-low percentage of junk parts into the weapon and putting the "Shhhh... FN Barrels!" out front. This is like, "Shhh... NFA lowers!" on either the ones with the holes, or not holes, or LRBHO, or not... I wasn't kidding that there are 14 offerings for "AR-9 Lower" on their site. PSA is like a box of chocolates...
  11. Exactly- it seems like they put a lot of thought into engineering the lower, and then used whatever upper they had laying around with a 9mm barrel.
  12. Awesome! Thanks for the update. I think I know what the right way to go is... just somewhat torn between this and a New Frontier lower with a tolerable cartoon scratched in the side... or whatever junk PSA is going to be blowing out at crackhead prices on Black Friday.
  13. Nice... and thanks for the detailed pics! I'm not the biggest Palmetto fan, but this looks like it could be an option... if they still offer them.
  14. Are the titles on these reversed? (...or what model # lower is that with LRBHO?) I just clicked on most of the 14 lowers listed on PSA's site, and by description none of the lowers without holes behind the trigger guard feature LRBHO.
  15. I've used their Micro for a while on my 10/22 (recently migrated it to a sidefolding charger pistol and I'm loving it even more!) and recently bought their latest 30mm with integrated QD mount and solar functionality. This one I kind of have mixed feelings about. It appears to be of quality construction, daylight bright, and I like that the objective is threaded to accept the same Tenebraex Killflash as an M68 (mine has one on right now). What I don't like is that the optic is quite a bit longer than an M68- no chance of getting a 3x mag behind it unless you walk it way up. That, and it's somewhat heavy- but I'm sure that lends itself to toughness and probably contributes to my perception of it's quality.
  16. I'm with you on that, homey. I was somewhat perplexed when I saw it... kind of like... for $1.5K+, surely they would have used an appropriate upper. No gas shield either! I know Nordic makes quality stuff, just more oriented towards the gamer set... and I'm not sure how that removable mag well would hold up to hard use. I didn't know anyone had any faith or patience left for the S&W M&P either, and I have no idea what a "2011" is. It seems like an absolute-no-brainer that the formula for market domination would be a Glock and Colt SMG magwell with BHOs to start, then regular MP5, then Uzi... and hell, probably Suomi or Sten before extending support to duds and oddballs. I'm thinking of putting together a Nordic Glock lower, Colt FCG w/ SS pins, H3/std spring/spacer under a Colt 9mm upper with a Faxon Gen2 9mm bolt and 8.3" Lightweight Ballistic Advantage/ 7" MCMR rail. If not, New Frontier...
  17. Me too- usually the FH, via tuning fork effect. This weapon appears to have a brake installed though... Something is definitely singing there- can you tell what it is?
  18. I'm considering the Nordic, and I have a few questions: 1) In every review video I've watched, the gun "sings" when the bolt is dropped or locked- what's doing that? 2) Does the forward assist function with that carrier? 3) Any issues?
