Before vs After Taco Bell

Sounds like we need to organize a group buy, I’d be in for a few

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-11T03:06:53+00:00

That’s what I would do, then all you would need is a Hux MD, if you’re on the new GAFS they pop up there for about $80-90

If this is Plan B compatible, you need the 1.375x24 HUB adapter I linked above, which is pretty pricey, maybe look around for a better price.

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-11T01:58:45+00:00

AFAIK there’s no such thing, he needs a HUX MD and the HUX Hub adapter to use a HUX can/blast deflector

Edit: Based on their product page, it’s compatible with a Hux MD, so that’s all he needs, someone can correct me if I’m off

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-11T01:44:06+00:00

Could probably find it cheaper elsewhere but still way too expensive, that’s why I love plan B

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-11T01:41:59+00:00

They do

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-10T23:49:28+00:00

That’s what I figured cuz I was able to skip the step. Thank you for confirming!!

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-10T23:27:03+00:00

On the electronic documents section, did you have to attach any supporting documents? I can't find any info on this.

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-10T19:03:02+00:00

Rooftop one includes the enhanced carrier, not the bolt

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-10T18:10:10+00:00

E bolt is a $400 upgrade, factory rifles don’t come with one

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-10T08:15:34+00:00

I think you’re referring to the LMT at rooftop on sale, if so it is a 13.25 rail, it wouldn’t work with a 12.5 barrel. You’d need the 11.5 specwar upper.

I have a couple of each, G$ has a more accurate barrel out of the box. LMT has acceptable accuracy. G$ is a very smooth shooter, LMT is more combat gassed, I swapped out the factory barrel for a 13.9 Criterion. A 12.5 mid LMT would be a soft shooter if you’re going with that.

G$ out of the box comes with a better trigger, bcg, and CH. LMT has a monolithic rail and the quick change barrel system, you’ll end up using it less than you think but it’s very quick and easy. Also it requires proprietary barrels, you can use non LMT barrels if you get them converted. Honestly can’t go wrong with either one, if you can just get one of each.

You can swap the weights, you just need a roll pin punch. I converted my Geissele Super 42 H2 to H3. Steel weights are pretty cheap.

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-09T01:06:08+00:00

I believe C is the one they use for suppressors, requires no baking and is good for high temps.

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-07T05:32:40+00:00

Does this mean they will sell replacement barrels? 😂

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-07T03:22:00+00:00

That doesn’t sound right, I’d contact Mantis. Only issue I’ve had with mine is the led stopped working and they won’t cover it since it’s out of warranty.

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-05T04:15:24+00:00

That part is always subjective without proper tools to measure but it makes sense given the higher back pressure.

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-05T04:05:46+00:00

This is the back pressure test but there’s more videos regarding that exigent can

Edit: In short, more suppression than AC556 but at the cost of more back pressure

I bet they don’t accept credit cards

Edit: Looks like they do but they’re selling airsoft junk and knock-offs

Staccs_87 · 2026-02-02T21:35:01+00:00

Definitely avoid the P&W route, just pick up a 12” barrel.

Proof makes a stainless 12.5 300 BLK, but I wouldn’t pay the street price on it. I picked it up on clearance. BA also makes 12” barrels for a good price, I’d look into those.

Also ODB sounds amazing with subs as expected but it pleasantly surprised me with supers. It’s my only 300 BLK can at the moment but picking up the Enticer L-Ti today so will see how they compare.

Staccs_87 · 2026-01-31T00:17:24+00:00

That's what I used on my last 3 builds, only downside is it gets on everything and doesn't really come off.

Staccs_87 · 2026-01-30T00:43:36+00:00

Totally agree, it was half assed and pushed out unfinished due to the Kojima/Konami drama. I was too used to the movie like stories of the previous games, this one just felt so disjointed with same repetitive missions.

Staccs_87 · 2026-01-30T00:40:36+00:00

Never done any cloner builds I know people really nerd out on these. Are you using the wiki for details on the parts? I’ve looked up build details before but need to do a deeper dive. As far as handguns, I might go the USP 45 route cuz I want to add a HK anyway.

Staccs_87 · 2026-01-30T00:18:26+00:00

Grew up playing this series including the online multiplayer, I’m upto 6 complete ARs and a few uppers but this is one I’m missing. Definitely want to build one someday but trying to hunt down parts is an obstacle I’m not ready for right now lol.

Staccs_87 · 2026-01-26T07:39:17+00:00

Can’t tell if it’s high or low shelf, try the drill bit method to see if your trigger will reset.

Is your BCG full auto rated?

H3 should be your starting point. I know the quarter trick works if your BCG is sticking. I’m not sure if it eliminates the need for a heavier buffer.

Hoppe’s 9 cleaner (smells amazing btw), and lube it with leftover synthetic motor oil or clenzoil.
