nutzach Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 5 Gen 2 STI’s here. All TTI base pads tuned by Atlas. All run 100%. I like the idea of MBX and the success many others have had, but can’t complain about the Gen 2 STI’s from Atlas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliYeti Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I got my first 2011 this year and was intimidated by all the mags and how you get different answers on what is the best. So I figured I'd post since lots of people come into this in the same boat. I started with Gen 2 STI's (used Atlas mag tuning videos to put in their spec) with TTI basepads and TTI Springs/Followers. The TTI Springs/Followers held 21 rounds easy for start and 20 reloadable no problem. But the Followers were flimsy and I was worried about them. One TTI Spring follower seemed to get out of spec and didn't work so I didn't use that mag. After 2 months of heavy use one of the other mags started to show the same issue of the follower flipping on the last few rounds. I decided to switch to Grams Springs and Followers and they've been great. It has a more robust spring and follower. I won't go back to TTI guts. One caution is that 21 is tough to get seated. I won't need 22 all the time on the start so I'm not too worried about it. 20 is easily reloadable. To sum up my reccomendation STI Gen 2 Mags / TTI Basepads / Grams internals Do the Atlas tuning method to the STI mag bodies. It takes 15 Min a mag and is not complicated.

I don’t know if they are new or old but since they came with my Titan I’d guess new. I also have 4 Gen1 STI mags and one Gen2 that I run in my EDGE. I think the SVI mags stay in tune longer. New style have the SV engraving on the side of the tube. Old style have no engraving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
