Nugget Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Very nice! What buffer tube is that? Link to comment
MikieM Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Here's a picture of PCC number 3. Still building with weight in mind. Anticipate this one coming in at 5 pounds 8 ounces. Haven't completely decided as to a barrel configuration, but at the moment am leaning toward a 10.5 inch with linear comp. This set-up would require a tax stamp. An alternative would be an extension with a welded over pin although it would be heavier. No hand guard on either one. Link to comment

I have built 3 linear comps for 10.5 barrels. Two started out as solid aluminum rods and one was an aluminum tube with solid ends welded on. Very easy to drill a hole, drop in a pin and weld over it. I am happy how they all came out. I have a CMMG Guard 8 inch barrel coming that I am going to make 16 inches with a linear comp. I believe you can find 6 inch linear comps (sometimes listed as fake suppressors) that you can do this to. Link to comment

That was milled from the aluminum round bar stock. You can do a lot with the outside when you use a bar. My next one will be for my 8" Guard barrel, so about 2 inches longer. I will post a picture before I put on the hand guard because it will be different yet. I like the unusual too and these linear comps give me a chance to be a little creative. Link to comment

BillChunn Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 9 hours ago, HoMiE said: Odin Works Zulu 2.0 stock Correct. It has an additional buffer spring in it so if you are running a hydraulic style buffer, it might not work. Odin shows that they are currently out of stock. Google search turned up one in red at one of their distributors. Link to comment
Baltimoreed Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) I understand that this is Brian Enos' forum which automatically makes it a gamer as opposed to a shtf forum which is great. I used to be a gamer until age and health slowed me down. Now I'm just a CAS, zombie and Wild Bunch shooter. Looking at this thread there are a lot of sharp looking PCCs though they look more like PCRs (pistol caliber rifles) to me. But it appears that 9mm is the only way to go. I built my PCCs before they became so popular and not having a 9 or .40 to my name but a safe full of .45s, my carbines are naturally .45. The uppers are DPMS slickside with Olympic Arms bbls and bolts. The lowers are CNC .45 greasegun mag dedicated lowers. I never liked the ar charging handle so I created a forward charging handle for my first build which is also a 12 inch bbl sbr. I then did my AR Thompson and last year I did a AR MP5 9 inch bbl which is my favorite. Edited January 8, 2018 by Baltimoreed Link to comment

mpeltier Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Just finished this project. Functioned 100% and very accurate. Used an old mil-spec trigger, but plan on something nicer in the near future. The big surprise for me was how much I like the SIG Romeo 5X. If it holds up over time it will be a winner. I tried a mild "Battle worn" finish to the ceracoat. It actually looks better in person than in the pictures. Drilled out an old Miculek comp I had. Overall it balances and shoots remarkably well. After reading all the posts about weight, recoil, sight movement etc, I was expecting the worst. It is remarkably smooth and flat shooting as is. I will probably play around with the bolt/buffer a little just to try to tune it a little. Probably for no other reason than curiosity. Link to comment
1981Shooter Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I was running this 16" PSA upper on an AR15 lower with a TorkMag G-Block for a while, but reloads were always a little slow with that setup. I got a good deal on a PSA gen 3 lower during the week of SHOT Show (thanks @wyliearms) and picked up the lower on Friday. I added some Magpul parts that I had laying around, a TACCOM 3-stage buffer system, a Hiperfire 24 3G trigger, a comp from BBBest on eBay, some Taylor Freelance +12 extensions on Glock 33rd mags, and topped it with a Vortex Razor 3MOA red dot on an ADM riser. I ordered an Odin extended mag release and I'm going to get a mag well from @bmiller once he verifies fitment on the gen 3 lower. So far I'm pretty happy with how it shoots with the 3-stage buffer and 130PF 124gr bullets. Link to comment
