The TSRB is ideal but as I said the overhead TSRB with that chunk on top of the island barrel is no beuno. I’m assuming the overhead is the one with the raised portion one that I’ve seen some photos of. Like the tungsten rib is raised and sticking up above the slide?

The TSRB I shot was very well balanced. And the weight felt very similar to my OG chaos. Just slightly heavier but tracked way way better and with less dot movement.

UpYoursPal Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Are you guys using Atlas 170mm mags loading them up and letting them sit to set the spring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know for a fact that they do? Or are you just a fanboy? I can tell you with certainty that every gun is test fired prior to leaving the building.

theroryshow Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 It comes down to quality control which is what you pay for. I'm sure every manufacturer runs into issues from time to time. Those I have met with an Atlas tend to enjoy them but they were not using a Chaos. I think with the semi-custom manufacturers you have to have an open gun, similar to a car company having a Formula 1 car. It pushes the envelope and the tech trickles down to your other products.

The frame rails are longer front to back and the front portion of the frame rails where the Guide Rod and Slide bottoms out is moved forward. This is how they have "De-Stroked" the overall slide travel. Its hard to explain these changes via text. I wish I had one on hand to take side by side pictures to a "Normal" frame. Is also the slide rails are longer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While not open guns, I've now owned three of their pistols and all three ran right out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kema Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Well try it with factory minor ammo with light spring and if it is working, you have an ammo problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHA-LEE Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Regardless of gun manufacture, if the ammo you feed it is crap, its not going to run reliably. The same can be said for poorly maintained or tuned magazines. I don't know why people think that spending more $$$ will eliminate the requirement of feeding the gun high quality ammo along with properly setup and maintained magazines.
