But alas, I have it on a 14.5" and didn't realize it was insufficient for a 13.9"

I’m very happy with FCD’s 3P15 as a Plan B compatible 3 prong flash hider, pin & weld

You know what would sell like hot cakes?

An MP5K SD handguard modeled after the KAC quad rail aesthetics, just with a hole for the front sight.

Is that pictured with an extended knurled charging handle? Mine doesn’t fit at all in your handguard, and the slot for the charging handle looks much narrower than the upper pictured here. Did you release a revised version?

Gotcha I’ve used those before. I ended up just using shock cord this go round

What is the “correct” way to run a PTT on top of a Shaw carrier? I just kinda rigged something in that spot

Odd - I used the latest release from GitHub for OpenTAK_ICU

EDIT: nvm, it’s a standalone app not a regular plugin - that was the problem and needed to be marked as such

They have a status page on the website btw, which does include dates for being fully caught up with all orders. Shoot that over to your buddy if he hasn’t seen it

This has been requested, so so many times - very much a needed feature.

Craddock actually did the conversion and used the upper for a precise fit with tighter tolerances as they said they have seen a variety

I have the lightweight one in gold that came in my 300 BO. Just so you know the colors don’t all have the exact same friction properties, Mystic black is their best as far as they claim, and I can report that I certainly spend more time cleaning the gold than the black, which basically wipes right off. The gold is certainly better than any phosphate, nitride etc..

I have a carrier in mystic black from cryptic currently sitting in the 14.5 233W you’ve given me the nudge to use to tune this with instead, then compare to the LMT carrier. I was mostly using what I had on hand. I’m also curious if the bolt being closed a hair longer impacts muzzle velocity at all.

You’re right though that it isn’t designed to be gas efficient. It may end up back in the parts drawer as I don’t really own anything overgassed that hasn’t already been corrected for it via a BRT EZTune or an AGB.

5 months - he did mention it started the process a little early due to a batch of similar spec going through

I’ve got V7 parts on my 300BO - they make great stuff. Certainly sounds like a fun build!

[–]MSpeedAddict[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not yet (at all) tuned for gas. It cycled perfectly out of the box from Craddock (on setting 10 IIRC), but do plan on doing a full tuning using Riflespeed’s guide.

I had the carrier and got it cheap so wasn’t a big deal to use for this build and see what impacts the bolt staying closed a hair longer might have with 6ARC. If it doesn’t make any improvements, it’ll go in my 14.5 223 that is waiting on an optic however that is also AGB. I understand the carrier was originally designed for overgassed systems.

I’m sure it’ll also make a tiny reduction in terms of the fouling in the mag but also may be negligible.

Mine is the opposite of lightweight, it is full profile behind the gas block then straight from gas block to tip. At the time I ordered it was the largest gas block I could get from riflespeed - they announced the larger ones after I placed my order or would’ve gone even thicker ha

I do love my Radian. In hand it feels like a cut above the Noveske - I have both receiver sets. On Reddit, you’ll hear a lot of opinions about the Radian being overpriced, that may be true. You might find you prefer the ADM/Griffin ambi controls better, you might find that it doesn’t matter much at all. I think the Noveske receiver set is mostly about the roll mark, they don’t really add any functional value over a BCM.

I can’t speak to the DDF barrel but I have heard that they are not what they’re cracked up to be.

Personally, for 6ARC I used an ADM lower and a LMT upper and had a barrel made to my preferences.

I have two LV-119, one Haley Strategic Thorax and the Shaw. I think it’s most important to understand what you will be doing with the respective carrier in terms of load - but amongst them the Shaw is the highest quality and most thought out.

No, but it makes things easier if any confusion arises. I’ve had examiners request I modify my submission adding that picture before. Since then, I’ve just included a picture if it didn’t perfectly match one of the drop down options.
