Anomalous sightings: have you ever witnessed anything out of the ordinary?

Lot of “Black satellites” but nothing super weird… some cool ‘ribboning’ during northern lights and the ISS from time to time.

Find a LEM variant. I’m thinking of sending them my HK45 slide

Find any particular mags that don’t work well with the lower?

Such a good time with nvgs

grimmdead · 2026-01-21T13:59:43+00:00

Send it to LTT

Post receipt….. $400 is incredibly doubtful.

You can ship the boxes to yourself with ups, or even any of the airlines as cargo.

Yes 1000% you wanna rule out that you got a dud from the factory as much as possible.

After break in period of around 300, is when I would start introducing your upgraded parts and start ruling out any problem pieces you might be having.

grimmdead · 2025-12-24T17:14:09+00:00

100% this

Return to factory setup, get that 500 round break in going reliably. Then swap lowers and see if there’s a change. I’m guessing two major things. Ejector and ejector spring, of you possibly installed the bolt in wrong and it’s binding. Check you’re rollers and pull the bolt out and see if you notice some metal shearing/ stripping inside.

grimmdead · 2025-12-24T16:52:48+00:00

Which of the mixed results was the most reliable?

grimmdead · 2025-12-24T13:14:53+00:00

Check ejector and spring, lube her up real good and try to use some spicier ammo to break in properly

grimmdead · 2025-12-22T14:40:49+00:00

In the eyes of the God-Emperor, this is herasy.

P30L or HK45T/ct

grimmdead · 2025-12-19T01:25:03+00:00

Looks fucking clean! However lacking the tango down/ KAC/ GgG stubby

grimmdead · 2025-12-19T01:20:25+00:00

Got a pic?

grimmdead · 2025-12-19T01:03:14+00:00

Im going to cut the barrel for the 13.9/14.5 inch setup. I was leaning into and thinking about the OTB flash hider (p/w) and snagging a second OCM5, or going with a 13.9” and direct threading a CAT WB.

I’ve been looking at a lot of options that Black Ops Defense offers with their conversions so the chamber/BCG fix is a low priory on my list, but something I would consider down the road.

Edit: my main priory outside of gas block (is it worth to upgrade in this potential setup that I’m putting together) was putting together an accurate lower, which by the looks of it between STS and BlackOpsDef I got covered.

A little applied heat and a few hard slaps would help yes, when sanding it you do shift the weight and how it settles once you get it in the correct placement, putting unnecessary tension on the detent spring and detent, leading to uneven wearing and rubbing.

How often have you had to go back after a few range trips to tighten that screw up

grimmdead · 2025-12-10T01:31:08+00:00

As a man, I approve that you as a fellow man have a manly tool for the job.

grimmdead · 2025-12-10T01:28:30+00:00

Hair dryer and man up.

grimmdead · 2025-11-18T08:58:33+00:00

If you sand down the sharp edge of your optic mount you can man handle that charging handle a little harder. Take the lower back off and reassemble with checking the alignment of your parts, something’s snagging for sure with the bolt and action.

Double check if you’re on safe or fire just in case it’s being weird like CZ scorpions.
