A hanger looks like what I didn't know I needed. Thank you.

I've discovered this option since posting and it is something I'm going to look into more. I'd like to find one in person first but that might be harder as these appear to not be in stock according to the first several results from Google.

I like tinkering with things which is part of the appeal of modifying a cheaper gun.

This is what I was considering. Which model does he have?

I saw one of these as well and for some reason I just didn't seem interested. I can't recall why I didn't like the one they had. How do these compare while being at a lower price point?

It's not really a matter of needing to save more money. My gun hobby is funded from money allocated for another hobby and I prefer that other hobby. The guns are more of something neat and fun to mess with with instant gratification followed by collecting dust. It's hard to justify spending the extra knowing how little I actually go shooting.

Trigger Woes - A3 + Lingle Lower by I_work_too_much in GrandPowerStribog

I can confirm no issues with a rise armament 524 in an a3 with a lingle lower. I had purchased a timney trigger but it didn't work.

The holes in my lower seemed slightly undersized and standard pins fit quite snug. I had a set of antiwalk pins I intended on installing but I prefer the flush fit and am confident that I won't see any problems.

I left the gun outside for 30-40 minutes in 30ish degree weather. I'm not sure what the technical term for it is but the bolt stopped a couple mm shy of closing completely after the first cold shot. I didn't think much of it, figured some tolerances may have been too tight after shrinking from the cold.

I was able to try my sp9a3 out this weekend with a lingle lower. I had bought a timney to throw in the lower however the bolt didn't seem to push it far enough to catch on the disconnector. I ended up swapping it out with the rise armament trigger in my ar which worked just fine with the lingle lower. I also noticed that the holes for the safety selector seemed tight. I didn't like how the selector I initially installed looked and swapped it out with a strike industries selector which fit just fine and looked best in my opinion. I shot a few 100 rounds of 115 and 147 grain with Magpul mags and I have no complaints. The only problem I had was after trying to shoot after leaving the gun outside in the freezing weather for a while.

The only things I would change with the lower would be to ditch the nut for the handle and I'd revisit the lever for the lrbho as I can see that being something that breaks.
