mattmann Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Short comp ordered......now I need a stock, grip, holosun and a few more mags......Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aandabooks Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Just got it yesterday and haven't even gotten out to the range and already the customizing is getting started. Swapped out the stock and grip. Went with a minimalist stock I had laying around and a Hogue grip. Will put on a Vortex reddot after I get it to the range to break it in. Have a Cmore railway on the way for it. Started working on a comp design. This one is going to end up being too short but I kind of like the way it looks on the gun. Whipped up a quick round one and it stays steam lined but not enough venting I don't think. The threads on the barrel are slightly over-sized and makes it difficult to turn these on. Might be ordering a die to chase the threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thread pattern should be m24x1 -- just to verify you are using the proper one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran off a first pass at a 3 port model. It is getting fairly long. Especially compared to the first one that I did. I went with a slightly rectangular shape for this one. I'll be testing both of them this weekend. I might gear up for a small production run of these. I have a buddy that I'm working on to get him to do some cerakoteing on these. I could just sell them in the raw and the price would be much cheaper. Edited March 23, 2019 by aandabooks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which locking ring? I can do the one at the comp but the one at the hand guard is going to be a problem. It looks to be a proprietary thread. Supposedly the guns ship with a nut that locks the hand guard. I didn't get one with mine but emailed RIA to see about that. I've heard that they will be shipping them out to people that didn't get one this week. I think I'm going to cut down my shroud since I like the look of it but want to run the comp. I should have some ready to ship by the end of the week in raw aluminum. I'm working on a local guy to do some cerakote on them but that will be $25 each and more time.
