dhunt91 Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 cmc straight or i may pull the curved timmney outta the dpms3g2 i put it in. more worried about the rifle gas and rifle buffer with low mass parts functioning reliable than anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustint21 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 cmc straight or i may pull the curved timmney outta the dpms3g2 i put it in. more worried about the rifle gas and rifle buffer with low mass parts functioning reliable than anything I have a few off the CMC triggers and have been really happy with them. As for the low mass stuff it's all trail and error. I used a RCA light weight BCG and rifle buffer with the weights removed. I tinkered with the adjustable gas block a little and it is shooting n ice and flat. I haven't had any failures yet..... knock on wood.....

hrdstmax Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 You should be good to go with the adj gas block once you have everything dialed in. Im using a Seekins adjustable with my voodoo low mass carrier and taccom ulw buffer. Runs great and couldn't be happier with my setup. You wont be disappointed.

TonytheTiger Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 +1 on the CMC straight trigger, it might just be my stubby fingers but I seem to have better and more consistent finger placement with it than any curved units. And mine came with fancy new screw secured trigger pins instead of the pita to install C-clip pins they used to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therealkoop Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 16" rifle gas? Sounds interesting. I still have to suggest an 18". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

promod1385 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I have a 16" "dissipator" style gun, rifle gas and 16" barrel with a rifle weight buffer, it works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhunt91 Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Update All my parts are in except my barrel and new scope ring.Barrel should be here tomorrow!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 You are going to like the rifle length gas system on the 16" barrel. You might have to run warmer ammo than say Wolf, Tula, or PMC, but stuff like Federal AE223 or XM193 will make it hum like a top! It is going to be soft and fast!

Did he not use an AR vice block? I had no issue going over 80ftlb on my crappy $39 PSA upper (the wrench broke first) using a proper vise block... If he didn't use a vice block he owes you an upper.

He should have been using a reaction rod. In my opinion he owes you a new upper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhunt91 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 he was using a upper block and a torque wrenchshot a pm to the upper company on fb and they suggested shimming it with aluminum. I did not have any and had several ppl tell my bras was fine so I made a shim and all is well as of right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhunt91 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 the reciever did not bend the little slot for the barrel dimpled (the bead thing made a dimple in the side) Fixed it with a shim as of now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Get a new upper, fast. I would be worried about their heat treat. ?????? huh To my mind if the receiver got damaged with 50lb of force I would suspect there is something wrong with it, assuming the gunsmith didn't do anything crazy.

dhunt91 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 he said he used 50 pounds but i know for a fact he did not use a torque wrench or a reaction bar called up the company they are gonna send me a new upper monday I went and bought all the tools myself not letting this jack wagon smith touch it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickB Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Is it just me, or does something not sound right? How is it even possible to have the barrel locating pin dimple the slot in the upper from tightening a barrel nut? The only way to cause this type of damage should be from over tightening a muzzle device, or removing a stuck muzzle device. (of course, using a barrel clamp, would eliminate that issue). What am I missing here? Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
