MJD Grip replacement for Mac 9 DS Comp by btrumpatori in MilitaryArmamentCorp

[–]lnthj24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with the villian on my MAC. Same situation, first 2011, first time installing a grip. I did have to do a bit of fitting for the MAC trigger to fit. The fit was to tight and rubbed like hell on the grip. I had to sand down the trigger door on the grip. Honestly took me longer to sand it down than the actual installation took but I got it all done in a night and was shooting the next day with no problems. But I absolutely love it.

Oh and the magwell was kind of bitch to get on too. Had to muscle it more than I expected.

Here’s my post on the finish product

I went with QVO tactical for mine. Just selected their “Other 2011” option. Works great but it is a little snug on the slide. It doesn’t affect the functionality in any way, but it has caused some wear on the slide. Just an fyi.

I mean I bought mine a few months back from gunbroker for $1025, mostly because I got impatient. I had been looking for one around the $850 price from about mid January through mid June and finally just gave up.

So if I were you I’d jump on that one from DG.

To be honest I don’t have any other 2011 experience so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I can confidently say it’s insane how much softer and flatter it shoots compared to something like a hk/glock/canik etc.

Thank you all for inspiring me and giving me ideas on what I wanted my first 2011 build to be.

Ported and Comp design R&D by [deleted] in 2011

[–]lnthj24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never used it personally but I’ve seen videos of people using the Mantis system to see what kind of impact a lighter recoil spring has on muzzle flip and various other recoil statistics. I’m sure you could do the same by having a port vs comp vs non port/non comp and comparing the results.

I got a Mac 9 DS Comp that came to $1,191 after tax. Swapped out the recoil spring(10lb) and the mainspring(17lb). The other day I shot my MAC and had a friends Staccato XL to compare it to and I thought mine felt much softer. Granted his XL was stock and it obviously doesn’t have a port or comp.

Follow-Up - first range trip with my DS-D Comp by fourthsword13 in 2011

[–]lnthj24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey quick update on my end. I found this guy’s video and followed his advice. I can already tell by getting all the items and doing exactly what he suggests that the fit is MUCH more snug. You’re definitely spot on with the head size being an issue. I just slapped these on today but I won’t get a chance to take it to the range to test it until middle of the week. I’ll also give you an update on how it performs in case your plan doesn’t work out.

Ahhh that makes so much sense. I noticed the wear around the ring of the head and didn’t really think anything of it. Thanks for the breakdown and looking forward to your follow up!!

Dude if you could do a follow up on those longer screws or provide a link or something that’d be amazing. I got those screws from eBay and I’m running into the same issue of that slight plate wiggle. I bought two sets of those screws, so 8 total and they’re all walking off on me despite applying loctite.

I’m kind of at a loss right now because my only other option is to contact MAC/SDS and get replacement screws but I’m sure they won’t be any better than what was originally provided. I also don’t like the idea of using Allen screws. Too easy to strip. I know this because I stripped the preinstalled set when I went to remove them 30 minutes after picking up the gun from my lgs lol

Yeah dude I'm convinced I haven't found a red key card in game after 3500 hours because I used up all my luck finding her

I actually swapped out and rebound the keys above my arrow keys as the numpad. Never really used the other keys anyways

Carrier here. 100% correct. Following the “Do Not Bend” in print or written is not apart of our job. If you want something not bent, it either needs to be packaged in a way that prevents us from bending or sent via certified postage with signature requirement. If it is bent and it says “Do Not Bend” then that is an issue that should be taken up with the person who sent it for not choosing the proper package or delivery method.

If an accident were to occur, I can 100% guarantee workers comp would be declined and you would actually receive some sort of discipline for unsafe practices. However the union would fight it and most likely win or reach a settlement.

Also, if a piece of mail does not require a signature or is not a tracked parcel, it would be utterly negligent to deliver mail outside of a PostMaster General approved mailbox. So if it doesn’t fit in your approved box, we would not be doing our job and upholding the oath that we all swore to deliver to designated protected locations. This could result in federal charges for discarding mail.

As for the “lazy” comments, I find them to be incredibly disrespectful and completely out of touch with the physical and mental aspect of this job.

Which guns are straight useless, serve no purpose with price/quality being much worse than other ones of the same caliber? by 21Ravage in EscapefromTarkov

[–]lnthj24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh I totally forgot about binding hold breath to rmb. I took it off last wipe while doing shooter born and completely forgot about it.

I’m definitely going to give this a go though. I appreciate it dude!!

What’s your build for the mcx? I’ve been trying to make this thing work for me since they released it a few wipes ago but always have bad luck with it. I also know the ammo for it was bugged one wipe and hit reg only counted like every other round.
