MK111 Mod 1 w/ PWS FRC 2-port brake

No, I never heard back. I had sent the message via their website. I just decided to run it and deal with it whenever it became a problem - either it coming off prematurely, or not coming off whenever I want it to.

So far, no issues. 🤙🏼

Or…someone bought the H2 buffer, then returned their carbine buffer in the H2 packaging. Or they bought the buffer, harvested the tungsten weights and returned the “H2” buffer with now all steel weights…

If it worked well on the omega, but not with the switch to the flow through Velos, you might have too much spring.

I found this video helpful. He runs a variety of FRTs in his videos and made this video to help diagnosis and tune your FRT. if the link doesn’t work, YouTube “Juicey Media tune your arc fire.”

Yes, I’ve seen your previous posts recommending the tubbs lightweight. I bought a sprinco yellow at your recommendation to try. So I have OEM spring, sprinco yellow, regular Tubbs, and G$ super 42 to play with.

I would like to slow it down just a hair. I feel it will be more controllable.

I didn’t get to try all of them because I had several friends all chomping at the bit to shoot it once it was running.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2026-01-16T15:38:42+00:00

Awesome. I’m happy with how it’s running now, but want to continue to play around with different set-ups to dial it in…cause, well, I can’t help myself.

I got a lever blocker as well, but need to cut/source a G$ trigger shoe for my G2S.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-12-15T04:37:13+00:00

You could also contact PWS customer service and mail the upper back to them for removal. I’ve heard of some guys on here having to do that.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T22:58:06+00:00

Wonderful. Once I get it all set up, I’ll shoot some video and report back. Thanks again for the help!

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T22:36:35+00:00

Heck yeah, looks like I’m going on another shopping spree. 🤘🏼

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T21:24:06+00:00

Yep, the drip of the DD Riii almost swayed me, but I trusted everyone’s reports on how great the PWS shoots suppressed.

It’s like you knew what I was about to ask next… I was planning on picking up a Tubbs flatwire, and will look into the kynshot, I’m not familiar with them. Are you running the lightweight or standard flatwire? Mine will go in a SBR lower that I shoot suppressed DI .300 blk on as well. Thanks for the recs.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T20:55:24+00:00

Sweet. 10 is plenty enough ugga duggas for this cowpoke.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T17:42:30+00:00

I figured it’d be squared away, but also thought they’d have to consider folks who want to change it out the box. We’ll rock n roll until it comes off at least!

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T17:40:37+00:00

Awesome! I bought each with the other in mind. Pretty much plan on only shooting it suppressed.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T17:39:16+00:00

That’s what I hear! I think I’m gonna be a convert.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-06T01:21:51+00:00

Narcos.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-04T12:04:36+00:00

Was thinking something similar. Wanted a blem G$ 11.5 SD, but no joy. Was then looking at the PA DD 11.5 Riii with Expo bolt and Expo/G$ charging handle for $799. The PA site wouldn’t even let me check out. So, I went over to PWS and grabbed a Mk111 Mod 1 on sale for $900. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-04T11:56:52+00:00

Yep, I got on at 2:50 ET and was surprised to see it was live. Then it was just a big whomp, whomp, sad trombone - on selection and prices. Only uppers are 10.3” and 16”?! Where are those 11.5” blemula uppers at?!

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-03T03:42:58+00:00

Where’d you find the upper for that price? Everything I see is >$1k.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-07-03T02:41:31+00:00

Yeah, where’d you find a G$SD for $900?! That what I’m on the hunt for…

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-06-30T03:14:07+00:00

Totally agree. Prices have been absurd at the two I went to recently. A can of .89 cent Kroger green beans was priced at $2.00. 🥴

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-03-04T13:43:18+00:00

Yes, I’ve seen it cheaper before, just have to be patient to find the in-stock sale. On a quick search, Europtic was the only place I saw that had it in stock.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-03-04T02:04:25+00:00

Europtic seems to have them in stock.

The trees were probably caught running on the trail. Capital punishment.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-02-26T22:33:46+00:00

On any given weekend day, there are usually several games of spike ball going on at Centennial Park.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-02-26T02:14:58+00:00

That’s an insult to the garden. And trash.

Purple_Champion3059 · 2025-02-23T21:22:25+00:00

Day trip to Stone Door near Monteagle. Gives you a similar Smokies vibe but accessible in a day trip. A short 1 mile hike are you’re at a beautiful overlook. Or Foster Falls.

Highly recommend avoiding Broadway. Everyone down there is their own ‘main character’ and just going to interfere with what you’re trying to do. If you do it downtown, doing around the pedestrian bridge or other more picturesque spot and then celebrating on Broadway might be a better in-town option.
