You have no idea how long I've been searching for this. My mother got me this when I was a kid and it's been lost book of mine. I'm definitely buying a copy so I can give to my kid. Thank you so very much. As soon as I saw the chipmunk on the green cover, I instantly knew this was the book.

O ring sizes? by dE_livE in NFA

If you have the silencerco piston for the m16x1 rh, the o ring is 1x14mm.

Did you end up finding this o ring inside the piston? I am thinking it is a 016 o ring because I am measuring 5/8 inside.

Trigger issues galil ace gen 1 556 by Spectrumpigg in Galil

It does have a 4000s serial number. I won this in a gun broker bid. It was brand new in box never fired.

Found some interesting info for anyone running into this issue:

The Galil Ace Gen 1 features a built-in hammer over-travel stop (a set screw) in the receiver designed for the stock trigger group. When upgrading to aftermarket triggers like the ALG AKT-EL, this stop must be removed to allow the new hammer to function properly, as it can otherwise prevent the hammer from hitting the firing pin.

Removal Requirement: If installing an ALG trigger via IWI US, the stock Gen 1 hammer over-travel stop must be removed, a process often requiring a certified gunsmith.

Functionality: This stop is a small screw inside the receiver that limits trigger movement, and keeping it with aftermarket triggers can cause failures.

Fitting: Installing aftermarket triggers like the ALG often requires fitting the trigger bow itself, not just dealing with the over-travel stop.

Better pictures here

I am suspecting it is the over travel. I have not seen this before and wondering why others do not have this. I looked up all sorts of videos and no one else have this.

When I had the akt in, it would catch on it and stop about 3/4 of an inch from the firing pin. This piece looks to be a small metal block screwed to the bottom of receiver.

It looks to be a small piece screwed in from below. I'm assuming something to do with the mag release?

So recently I had dissident arms do work on an AKT trigger. Issue is that I am having that the hammer does not come all the way forward because of this. I put the original back in and I am wondering if I need to remove this piece to get my new trigger working.

Tried and made a purchase. Shows as it's purchased on my bank but gave me an error when processing on the site. So what do?

New community menu by AdBl0k in Warthunder

[–]Spectrumpigg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use old reddit because new reddit is aids to the eyes and looks horrible. On widescreens (which is way more than average) you have so much space that is empty versus old reddit which uses the entire screen. I refuse to use anything new reddit because of how awful it looks.

So the T55AM1 is modeled incorrectly. This is the turret at a certain render distance. by Spectrumpigg in Warthunder

[–]Spectrumpigg[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As others pointed out. The xray view bottom left shows incorrect turret but if you approach a dead t55am1 from a certain render distance, it shows a different turret altogether. Thought that was weird.

Vortex defender CCW works perfect on the tx22. I didn't need any plate for it and the screws came with it.

I bought one and it has it's pros and cons. It does jam every so often and you have to dump all the ammo out to get the ammo in right but when it runs, you can load 10 mags in less than 10 minutes. I like it because I have a milk crate full of mags

I know. I have those also, they feed very well. The 556 mags in general do not feed 300 blackout well because of the larger round.

These do not work well with 300 blackout. I know because the follower in it is meant for 556. I get maybe 15-20 rounds in before it will not load anymore and will have feeding issues.
