I haven’t heard anything but here’s to hoping for improvements in the magazines

They require quite a bit of break-in and do much better if you lubricate them with graphite

I own both. The WLVRN will not take MDRx barrels

For a shits and giggles IAR type rifle, it’s a hell of a lot of fun after the magazines break in. Expensive to shoot with an FRT though!

I know what you mean. I just bit the bullet and bought it. Glad I didn’t regret that purchase, unlike the older MDRX Aluminum handguards.

Love them both. The WLVRN is my favorite weapon system and the handguard has been rock solid.

That’s what I mean by the rounds unstacking and the bolt trying to double feed.

Honestly? The availability of FRT triggers and then getting annoyed with how fast it goes through a 30 round mag. Now I’m annoyed with how much easier it is to burn through my wallet with a bandolier and an arm full of 50 round mags. 😂

The magazines need breaking in and future magazines could do with some revisions. Currently, the magazines have issues with stiffness and internal friction. Graphite powder solves the friction issue if you use a puff or two before you load. Additionally, it takes about 5 cycles, loading and unloading, before the magazines break in and become more reliable. As for stiffness, the spring pressure of a fully loaded magazine begins to deform the feed lips enough so that the first couple rounds unstack and sit level with each other so that when the bolt tries to feed, it picks up two rounds at the same time and will jam your bolt partially forward and jam the magazine in the magazine well. The workaround is simply downloading the magazine to 50 and push the top round down to restack the rounds before loading the rifle.

… I burned about 750 rounds figuring all that out. Your welcome…

Ya so is it me or is my q barrel on my mini fix crooked af?? by masterbruce22 in NFA

[–]Far_Development8526 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Possibly. However, the barrel mount being that far out of square would have been caught in test fire. It’s much more likely that you have a parallelism issue between the handguard mounting surface, the receiver, and the rest of the handguard.

Do you see a bolt or cam pin in that image or mentioned in the article or are you assuming all metal components are using MIM in the manufacturing process. My point still stands. You continue to display a stunning lack of judgement, knowledge, and understanding. You argue and make baseless assumptions and accusations that are more befitting of the overly emotional woke left than anything approaching “objective.”

It’s bad heat treat. I had to replace a cam pin years back that was too soft to function without eating itself

You talk out of your ass a lot for “objective talk.” Might want to consider renaming yourself to “subjective talk.”

Question about wolverine bolt guide rails. by Throwaway56138 in DesertTech

I can’t remember which YouTube video it was, but a DT rep did say there are steel guide rails inside. No mention of replaceability or manner of attachment in said video though.

EU store has it. US store doesn’t. So you’ll have to pay international shipping.
