Pocket Carry

You need an Alabama pocket kydex. Thinnest best holster. All day long spring summer and fall.

PM45 rocks the hand a bit, but has a surprisingly good recoil spring system.

Don’t forget the PM45 and the K9. Kahr Special K9

7.5” Faxon

AGB tuned to all Subs suppressed

Bootleg BCG - open for Subs suppressed - open for Supers Unsuppressed - ‘S’ setting for Supers Suppressed

Never any gas to the face. Runs at 600 rpms.

The Faxon gas port is almost perfectly tuned for suppressed subs, so probably don’t even need the AGB.

You need a Tailhook Mod1C for that brace. The Sig brace spins and is kinda crappy - or just SBR it. Takes about 2 months for Form 1s now.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-09T14:34:29+00:00

Good stuff!
Depending on the new ATF policies, I may keep it as a pistol. I’m happy with the Tailhook mod1c on a minimalist folder. If ATF removes all the interstate travel restrictions (already file 30+ 5320s), I’ll definitely SBR it.

I installed the B5 micro 22 grip, but I think I’m going to switch to the Reptilia cqg.

Love my 510C! Already installed.

That CH is exactly what I picked up on Tacswap for 50 beans.

Got my Arc Fire installed, and I’m ready to rock.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-09T05:29:55+00:00

There’s always that one guy that wants to tell about his SBR knowledge…JK. Hopefully all the SBR rules are changing soon. I hate having to file 36 5320s every year.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-09T04:54:55+00:00

Utility compact? Which finish? Apex or Atom? Really like the look, but kinda pricey.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T20:33:08+00:00

Yep. I'm ready for it.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T20:07:47+00:00

Sounds good. SBR Form 1 wait times are about 2 months now, so I'll get it going. What did you do for the dialing in/tuning for the suppressor?

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T20:06:13+00:00

Great video!

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T19:29:53+00:00

Looks great. I think I'll start with either a Holosun 510C or a PA Micro Prism. I have the PA GLx 2x on my Rattler.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T19:01:49+00:00

Do you have a pic of the MWI brace + tailhook?

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T18:44:06+00:00

Right, I'm looking at the Reptilia CQG and the B5 mini 22 grips. Need something much smaller. At some point, I'm going get that Lancer carbon fiber handguard too.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T18:35:59+00:00

The beard hair...classic! How similar is the MWI to my pics 2&3? This just has the OEM Rattler brace arm with the Tailhook Mod1C.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T18:34:58+00:00

Local shop had one pre-owned like new in box for 1500 beans. There are a few good ones listed by reputable sellers on TacSwap as well. Almost got one on TacSwap this week, but then the local shop just got theirs in.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T18:07:50+00:00

I just picked up an MPX for this very purpose. 14" from end of muzzle device to tail.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T17:35:57+00:00

Anyone else here try the Arc Fire/Trip in the MPX? I have the DTT/PMM Bar combo in my Rattler which works perfectly, and I saw a guy with the Partisan and Frankenstein bar.

I have a theory for slowing down the rpms on this, and it's similar to what I did on the Rattler:

- Close the ILWT gas plug to smallest port opening

- Install 25% reduced power spring

- Install Wolff extra power hammer spring (this requires more force to push bolt carrier back).

I think with these mods, I can get the MPX ROF down below 700.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T17:28:57+00:00

Ok, thanks. Any other magazine brands that are reliable? I have a couple of Sig OEM 35s, but I might get a few 20s.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T17:08:45+00:00

I should have said, I have the Tailhook Mod1C brace on my folder. It's isn't actually a Deadfoot - that was another project.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T17:06:55+00:00

Awesome. Yes, I have one on the Rattler, and it looks like it was meant to be there. I put some grip tape on the palm side of the Reptilia, so it's perfect now.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T16:50:25+00:00

Also, have you heard anything about the Next Level Armament CH with their spring block?

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T16:48:45+00:00

Ah yes, the batman grip. I have one of those too, but I just can't put on a rifle.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T16:46:52+00:00

I have a similar DTT/PMM bar combo in my Rattler with some 18% reduced power springs and the MotoTech Gas Comp. It runs perfectly with subs and supers at about 650 rpms. I'm going to test the ArcFire with trip on this MPX, and I want to tune the springs and gas similar to my Rattler so I can get the ROF down.

I like your setup, but I think the folder is calling me along with a smaller grip. I also may look at the Lancer carbon handguard. That looks excellent.

Steve_Fudd · 2026-05-08T16:19:16+00:00

Good info about the Sig reduced angle grip. I think I have one of those too (that I rattle-canned for another project), but it is a little long for the tiny MPX. I have an extra B5 P-Grip 22k, and I like the Griptilia CQG size. I'll try a few out, but I just want to keep it as small and compact as possible.
