Misc Firearms Crew LXXIX: Tax Stamps, Background Checks, and Mag Caps

[benz5521]

I don't think it will be long enough to be a "firearm". I don't know off hand exactly how that works but pretty sure that one won't. If it were that simple a lot more people would do it as opposed to basically never seeing it I'm pretty sure

I could just do that BCM short angled one I guess. Or use my SBR lower when I want to.

[Farley1324]

Ordered 4-11, should receive Friday. Just over a month, YMMV.

What did you do with elise, exactly?

I ordered one all by itself 3-24 and it hasn't done sht

What did you order precisely? The regular old 2S, default curved?

2s straight Bow trigger. I guess she liked the cut of my jib?

Have you checked your order status lately? Any missed calls from Leander, TX?

Not that there's anything wrong with that . . .

[IronILLinois]

mayne Farley vs Criminal is always popping off.

its like the devil vs God on my shoulder and idk who is who.

sometimes i leave her with more questions than answers. hehe.

PS: just completed my first armslist deal boys. sold that 12.5in Zion that Farley told me not to buy.

[.:Chris:.]

I dig my rein. Clean cable management too.

[Farley1324]

Reign is taking over nao

[IronILLinois]

if you guys are looking for MBTs i would just buy off reddit GAFS. you can make a WTB post for $115 and have it 3 days later instead of that backorder nonsense.

[gbullock32]

omg mtek finally opened orders for their ballistic helmet... should I get one even though I already have a HHV and a ops core fast helmet???? I'm seriously tempted to lmao

Been very happy with my HHV, wore it to 2 local classes and many lols were had but it's very comfortable.

[gbullock32]

New Safariland plate carrier for work, my old equipment is faded as hell, 50 shades of green between my shirt, vest, pants, all fading at different rates.

Farley and criminal are the same person srs

[Brozef]

Hmmm

[criminal_manne]

Is this your main rifle? SSA-E or SD-E depending on bow preference.

If this is your 6th rifle that you just don't want a trash trigger on, the LaRue is where it's at.

This is basically how I feel.

Never heard anyone claim the LaRue is somehow better than a G.

Never tried any other after marker triggers, wonder if the CMC ones are any good.

[PapaBurgandy]

Morning, MFC.

[SpeedCheeser]

Elise from Larue called me this morning to inform me my trigger had shipped.

She must work in the front office.

[PapaBurgandy]

She must work in the front office.

Obviously.

[benz5521]

I haven’t tried and SSA-E but I have 2 SSAs basically and I couldn’t imagine wanting lighter for a general purpose gun. For a scoped gun I get it but I dunno, I need to try one. I have an SD3G sitting in a bag too.

I’ve had a Larue as well and prefer G. The Larue isn’t bad, especially for the price, but there’s a certain level of refinement to the G triggers.

[criminal_manne]

SD3G is fun as hell to shoot, throw that bad boy in the MK18.

I actually prefer the SSP for my short barrel cause it’s a little heavier so it’s still possible to shoot groups with but single stage so can still also shoot fast with it.

Whatever the flat SSA is called is pretty sick too. SD-C I believe. It’s crisper than my LaRue and has a more positive reset. That’s where the LaRue is kind of lacking, the G will kind of push your finger forward. Not sure if I’m describing that right but I’m not a precision shooter trigger expert or anything it just feels nicer.

[DualRectifier]

I know all the fudds like to lick some Geissele butthole at all times, all the time, 24/7/365, but believe it or not there are other triggers. I have had over a dozen Geisseles and have talked personally with Bill's wife Amy Lynn Geissele on a few occasions. There are better triggers than those old-school Geisseles. That drop in and everything fits and works rather than having to deal with all the play and walk with pins. My Chip McCormick CMC 3.5 single stages are probably the best I have. Also Elftmann makes a ridiculously smooth and crisp trigger with ball bearings, piano wire, etc. And then there's Timney.

And the Fostech Echo is a lot of fun too.





Geissele needs to get with the times. So much loose play with those springs, detents, pins, etc.

[criminal_manne]

Sounds like your lower is out of spec.

Never had a problem with loose springs or trigger pins walking.

I make sure to mag dump my d-60 a couple times after I install something new to make sure it will hold up.

[Farley1324]

You goofed something if you have pins walking.

[criminal_manne]

You goofed something if you have pins walking.

Or the trigger pin holes aren’t in spec on the lower.

School of the American Rifle (SOTAR) has some really interesting YouTube videos where he gauges a bunch of different lowers. You’d be surprised how many aren’t in spec and can still work but also cause little strange problems.

Muh Anderson is jusasgud brehs

Here’s one l but he’s got a bunch others:

[Bo_Flecks]

And then there's Timney.

I’ve got the Timney skeletonized 3 pound Competition Trigger in my structural defense rifle. Crisp as hell. Wood recommend.

[Brozef]

M4E1 lower with an M B T - 2S using supplied pins was a very snug fit into the holes.

[DualRectifier]

It's more the loose play than walking pins. I have KNS pins in most of my other ARs anyway. Just a matter of choice, I prefer the drop-in CMCs, Elftmanns, Timneys etc. over the Geissele Super Tricon, G2S, SSA-Es, etc. that I have. Just saying Geisseles might be a bit overrated at this point, and a bit out of date technologically.

I've "built" (assembled) dozens of ARS but what do I know

That’s valid. There are definitely more than two options for a good aftermarket AR trigger. I’ve read good things about the CMC ones.

[.:Chris:.]

I'm with team LaRue for triggers.

Don't think I'll ever buy G triggers as long as larue is around.

Prices are obviously marked way up for what it is after what they tried to do with D&H mags.

I decided to boycott G because of the D&H mag deal. Luckily the only thing I've ever purchased made by G is a $20 barrel nut wrench.
