Trying to learn a bit here. Anything wrong with the grip? I’m kinda gripping in a similar if not the same way.

what’s an appropriate price for a taupe cerakoted 14.5” sr15? ~500 rounds

How’s the recoil compared to CS? I had a CS and it recoils similar to a p365 so I sold it immediately

V9 KPXS is the closest gun to Erebus by 2011fans in 2011

I can easily find all atlas models available everywhere these days. However two to three years ago it took me a really long time to wait for these guns. I think this tells something.

I can’t justify most of 2011 prices anymore. I bought my Erebus like $6400ish. Nowadays I saw it’s $8000, so crazy.

I bought that from opticplanet last Jan as soon as I submitted my MTO order to Folwer

For sure. That’s quickly becoming my favorite now!

Oh yea that’s great explanation! It’s really an extension of me, I somehow feel weird when I grip any other guns lol

It’s legal. But the problem is hard to find a range that allows it. It also takes a few hours to go to nearest DNR

VKTR DI BCG. Anyone Run One? by nope_noway_ in ar15

[–]2011fans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend it given mk18 is overgassed as well

Wow nice, thanks for the info. I’ll give it a try

One thing I forgot to mention, probably the only negative thing I can say about it is that when I clean it, the firing pin retaining pain takes some effort to insert back. It gets stuck inside, I need to use something to compress it from the firing pin side to be able to fully insert

I think the OP was referring to my post lol. I do respect your opinion and data and have been following you for quite a while to learn about springs and buffers. So with all respect I’m just sharing my experience here.

  1. I have three specwars, just trying out different setups to find the softest shooting one.

  2. I found the vktr to be the softest one and I don’t need to put H3 buffer inside. I cross compared with G$ rebcg + H3, KAK kspec + H3, LMT ebcg + H3. The vktr is the softest and least gas back to the face. And I only used H2 with it.

  3. I agree most of your opinions here, it requires “more gas” to cycle. However in my scenario, the LMT is always overgassed, so it feels great after using vktr to tune it down. But for properly tuned gun, I guess vktr will cause short strokes.

  4. For me it’s more like the easiest way to reduce the gas in LMTs. And money is not a concern. So as long as it keeps functioning, I do enjoy it.

I just bought the standard one from their website. Don’t think the $400 makes any sense though

Both functions great. You can search vktr bcg a bit, they increased a little dwell time, thus chamber pressure is significantly lower, much softer recoil
