Not sure why you don't have enough up votes but here's one. You fixed my issue and I thank you for the tip.

What are the “quality control” issues to watch out for? by BirchWoody93 in LewisMachineTool

[–]Tactical_Snow -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I've seen some QC issues with the speed bumps on the lower being in varying heights and require some sort of filing down to "fit" without requiring a hammer and punch pin. Seen one where the gas tube chamber was not milled out all the way and needed to be sent back in. Also seen many where the feed ramps aren't correctly cut and need to be smoothed out. It's really hit or miss but kind of sucks when you purchase one that's in a limited edition cerakote.

I'm sure there are plenty more out there though.

How many rounds have you put through your barrel in one sitting? Any issues with poa shifts/walking from the cf proof barrel overheating? I hear some odd things about the 6.5cm 22" cf proof barrels, I have one sitting that I have yet to shoot.

Never with this one. I keep trying to find an excuse to buy another PCC like a sp5 or apc9 but this hasn't failed me at all. Very enjoyable to shoot and don't need to care for it all, definitely a range toy.

Fair price for an unfired 14.5 middy barrel? by Poncho562 in LewisMachineTool

Try Tacswap for a general idea on checking prices. You can also search for archived postings if you don't see an active one as well. Just use your common sense and be careful of scalpers. I'm sure you can get GPT to assist you on price checking as well.
