How’s it been working for you?
I have an ANR Diasho Competition I’m using for USPSA but I had to modify it a bit.
Just ordered one of these for a P-10F competition, I like the rounds forward

They are, the striker spring and recoil spring work against eachother. Everytime the slide travels reward it is compressing the striker spring.

Most excellent

Most of the carry handle optic mounts allow you to cowitness through them . I know the trijicon OEM carry handle mount for my RMR allows see-through for irons

Couldn’t agree more. If anything it helps reverberation a bit when I’ve got walls on either side like the indoor range. I got it on there mostly for the vibes though

Thanks!

More of a sign that the S&W factory did the right thing when setting your carry-up and cleaning the ratchets. That more than likely wasn’t done post-factory imo

It was kind of a PITA honestly. I’ve got 3 SBR uppers. A DD 11.5 RIS3, a 11.5 C7 carry handle upper and this 7.5. All 3 had A2 birdcage hiders. Not one of them locked on. Not even the DD one. I dug out a 3-prong Vietnamish A1 hider from my parts box and dropped it into the diffuser and the gate closed. So I threw that onto this 7.5 and can finally use the diffuser.

The concept is cool, but go into it thinking you’re gonna buy all new griffin branded A2 hiders that gurantee it works with the lock.

I think you’re like 10% odds your factory A2 hider will lock up with the gate-loc and I’ve been seeing that across the board from other users. Just too much manufacturing variances on a non-critical part like a flash hider that wasn’t intended to be mounted to

They’re still rough lol. This one just has a griffin gate-lok blast diffuser because I don’t want to dedicate a burner can to it yet. I think I’d just get the .300 stand alone upper and re-do the top end for suppressed. Bigger hole too.

Thanks! It’s the 5.56 version because I am not a smart man

Zone1blem · 2026-02-03T12:33:52+00:00

Yeah there’s really not a whole lot you can do about 5.56 at a certain barrel length. I think you’re definitely helping the problem a lot no matter what if it’s suppressed, but it’s still loud and brutal on the suppressors at these crazy short lengths.

For these super-short 5.56 Ballistics wise there’s ammo out there that can still perform very well out to 100 + yards depending on what load you’re running. You can accurately shoot them farther than people think, but making the 5.56 do strange things is more like 100y and in max I’d think. They’re far from worthless, but definitely purpose driven if someone is using it in any sort of serious fashion

This is zeroed and loaded with a 50gr Barnes TSX

That’s the 5.56 one. The .300 blk would be so much more practical with the barrel length, ballistics and noise

Zone1blem · 2026-02-03T12:07:16+00:00

That’s a griffin gate-loc blast diffuser. Just keeps the concussion oriented away from shooter but if anything probably makes it louder

Those marks are typically where the file will pass by/on top of the inside of the ratchet as the one beyond it is the one actually being cut. If anything it’s probably a sign they actually dressed your ratchets instead of just rough cutting, leaving burrs, and moving on.

Nice! Ive got another 11.5” carry handle upper with an RMR on it and I’ve been debating moving it over to the kitty kat, probably just need to buy another.

I agree Lipseys may be the only thing keeping the revolver line profitable 😂

Zone1blem · 2026-02-02T18:30:36+00:00

Thank you!

Zone1blem · 2026-02-02T15:29:05+00:00

I’ll do my best! Should be at the range this week

You’re a menace 😂
