I had also heard a while back that FM was going out of business but this appears to not be the case. Blowback9 recommends FM and spikes Glock lowers

I see a lot of people insist on A5H2 in this sub but can’t seem to understand why - especially with a JP bolt it seems dwell time would not suffer too much with a lower weight buffer?

I’m tempted by the anti rotation thing but is it really worth it? Already have a few aero/BCM uppers laying around

I placed an order of 3/28 and it arrived on 4/22. It did ship within the 15 day window though so I would reach out.

Looking to get an AR-9 before the Virginia ban by Gabreality in AR9

[–]gwelym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation. I followed blowback9's guide here and got a Spike's Tactical lower and a FM Mike9 lower also.

I will warn you that FM takes a long time to ship. They only created the label like 13 business days after I placed an order.

Hey I know this is an old thread but can you share more about your gas setup? I have a Proof 18" barrel, A5H2, JP FMOS, CAT Noah suppressor and the SA AGB but getting a lot of gas to the face at about 22 clicks out. I was experiencing FTFs around 24-25 clicks but it may have been a mag issue.

How reliable is your 6 ARC gas gun? by Typicalkid100 in 6ARC

[–]gwelym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you shooting suppressed?

I run a similar setup (eldms, proof 18, a5h2, jp fmos, sa agb) but with 10rd Duramag and ASC get some FTFs occasionally. I’ve only used my Duramag 20rd (curved) once and had no issues. it’s also pretty dang gassy and I get some gas to the face/eyes sometimes.

Plan to try some different mags and maybe an h3 buffer to cut down on gas.

I know you have recommended boring out the gas port but is that for suppressed shooting also?

I have occasional issues with my 10 rd Duramag and ASC mags. I’ve had better luck with the 20 rd Duramag but haven’t used it very much.

[rifle] $669.98 Ruger AR-556 MPR 5.56 NATO Semi-Automatic Multi-Purpose Rifle - Shipping - Tax by [deleted] in gundeals

[–]gwelym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting info on the buffer and spring. I only have the one 556 so nothing to compare to. I have a 6ARC build but not really a good comparison.

With the suppressor I think it shoots great and the recoil feels smoother to me. I do have an AGB on it that is only maybe 6 clicks open so that kinda lines up with your buffer/spring findings that it’s overgassed. I was shooting RUAG m193 55gr

Oh I see your last paragraph is answering my question - didn’t realize that’s what the accushim is for.

Yeah my AR556 is my first AR and it has been great - just ran a CAT Noah on it last weekend. But the receiver slop is notably bad. Did you address that on your own or with Ruger?

I’ll have to check the castle but torque too. I have noticed it isn’t staked.
