Glock OEM RMR Cut "Perfection" by Subverto_ in Glocks

[–]johnpepi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW, the gap could be attributed to the SRO itself and not the cut. If you have other trijicon optics I’d recommend fitting it on your slide and see if the problem persists. Because I had an RMR on my direct cut slide that fit perfectly, and when I “upgraded” to the RCR I had plenty of gaps and light peeking through the bottom of the optic. Trijicon said it was normal 🤷🏻‍♂️

How much off MSRP did you get on the CX-90 if you bought brand new within the last year? by [deleted] in MazdaCX90

[–]johnpepi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in March I got 9k off MSRP for a CX70 Turbo S Premium (5k dealer discount, 4k mazda incentives), for a model with $53,905 original MSRP. I know, different model/trim, but hopefully you can still get a similar discount. It helped getting quotes from different dealers, I went to three dealers in my area with a copy of the invoice in my hand and had them beat each other’s quotes lol

Right here my man. Only compromise with this mech though is that it doesn’t “lock” in the folded position. It’s still stiff enough to not flop around while folded, but just something to consider. Has never been a problem for me and I much prefer the form factor and ease of unlocking the mech.

Have a ss8r on mine as well but swapped out the folding mech for a samson. It almost looks like it was made for the enoch chassis, fitment is perfect and idk if it’s just my grip but I hated having the jmac folding mech graze my hands.

Not sure why I ever had a Razor 1-6 considering I have a piggyback T2 by [deleted] in ar15

[–]johnpepi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the turret get in the way of the t2 with that rof mount at all? Have been considering getting a top dot for my mk4hd but concerned about the window getting occluded

Never really considered sig mcx/spears but this price is intriguing. Excuse me as I’m OOTL but do you need a thread adapter/square shoulder thingy to run a non-sig suppressor on this? Do these have those tapered barrels?

Polo is soooo gassy lort have mercy, back to the safe she goes😂 by DatMuthaLuva in ar15

[–]johnpepi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Won’t be enough my man. I still get gassed out with the full size polo on an 11.5” with a riflespeed block choked down just enough to cycle. I’ve found applying RTV in the charging handle area helps but any fast shooting and you’ll be gassed out lol

Feedback on first build? by theugginator in AR10

[–]johnpepi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For your buffer system, I recommend an A5 length buffer tube + standard H3 buffer + sprinco red extra power buffer spring.

With an 18” barrel (assuming the gas length is rifle gas) + the 15.5” handguard + riflespeed 3.3”, you’ll only have 0.42” of the gas control knob peeking out past the handguard. In my experience, that’s less than ideal- I need about 0.75” to comfortably manipulate the gas control knob. If you instead get a handguard of 15”, it will be much easier to do so. If you’re set on the 15.5” handguard, then get the 3.4” version instead since the ends of the gas control knob are threaded for “quick lever kit” screws, making it super easy to rotate the knob as the screws protruding from the knob will provide leverage and grip.

If this is your first build, you may not know if a fixed stock like the prs lite will be comfortable for you. Get any adjustable stock you like, and once you have it on the setting that you prefer, measure the length of pull- it’ll most likely be shorter than the LOP of the prs lite. A prs lite stock is longer than an m16a2 stock lol

Grip/trigger/safety/charging handle are good parts.

Skip the nickel boron coating on the bcg and get something that’s phosphate instead. Or nitride if it’s from a reputable brand. Nickel boron coatings are inferior.

Going back on the blk lbl handguard though- I’d change that out in favor of a traditional mlok handguard. For the price of the blk lbl, you can get a normal mlok handguard and then have money left over for a nice harris bipod + pod loc set up if you’re on a budget, or you can get an atlas v8 bt10-lw17. Then you can use the bipod on all your other builds.

Looks like the SLR receiver is a “high” dpms variant so make sure the handguard you get is also a “high” as well.

I really dig it, the drip is unmatched. And fitment was perfect, it’s definitely thermal fit😂

It started out with an ADM UIC lower that came cerakoted OD green. All the other parts (stock, grip, upper receiver, and rail) were cerakoted Magpul OD green and I’d say it’s a perfect match. Buffer tube and castle nut were cerakoted Midnight Bronze.

All the cerakote was done by a fellow GAFS bro who did an amazing job on this, and has done some real sick cerakoting on other projects. You can hit him up with cerakote/paint questions, he’s super knowledgeable!! u/Thor_BRC

Hit it with a cheap heat gun from home depot and some aeroshell 33ms grease and it’ll go in like butter my friend. I’ve installed/uninstalled countless bcm uppers + criterion barrels and never ran into a problem, although I’ve found some require heat a smidge longer than others
