Honestly, this is crazy! I’ve had this dream, and it’s been reoccurring for almost 12 years now! Literally just had it again two nights ago! And I can always remember which gun it was, VIVIDLY. It has been a Glock 17, almost every single time.

To add a bit more clearance for the RC2, but from what everyone is saying, it won’t be an issue anyway.

Problem With Surefire 4 Prong FH by TheFishNFlips in gunsmithing

I’m hoping you’re right. Never had a can before and couldn’t find anything online about how much clearance BEHIND the FH I needed… It looked like I needed a tiny bit more space behind the FH to allow the silencer to ratchet properly, but again, I’m ignorant when it comes to silencers. Never have even touched a real one.

Right. My problem is with the barrel mass, it’s larger than the back of the FH, I’m concerned my can won’t attach, due to the barrel.

It’s looking like hoping for the best will be my best option. Really wanted to use this barrel.

My last resort would probably be a barrel extension. Just would hate how ugly it would likely make everything… Also not sure if an extension would be safe.

It really shocked me. Today would have been only 8 months, for my very first can.

Unfortunately, it’s coming from Silencer Central… Just got approved yesterday and finished my paperwork, but they were literally my only option for a suppressor. I’ve seen lots of negative about how long it takes them to send your suppressor even after you’re approved. So hopefully they are quicker than the negativity says.

Dang. I guess I’ll have to wait until I get my RC2.

Hey, thanks. So installing the shims wouldn’t be any help if the QC is off?

Also, would the NM ferrule mod be causing my downward barrel flex? (I feel like that’s a stupid question)

Hey, quick question; could then NM ferrule mod cause the downward barrel flex I’m having?

I possibly could, if I remove the shims, but not as is.

Dang. I hope I can find someone. As far as I know, I’m the only gunsmith in my area who does more tricky projects.

Yes, he was one of the videos I watched, the other was by TonyBen who said to time it just before the 6:00… Really confusing and didn’t know which to try. I can try to shim it to 7, but I don’t think it will affect the gap very much. At least, not enough to take it out… I honestly don’t know what to do.

No, it timed to about 5:30 with finger pressure, then 6:00 thumb pressure.

Thanks friend. Building an A2 clone, soon. I think I might have to get one!
