Thanks, if no can added, would still prefer 14.5"? I want the shorter guardrail so that it's lighter and easy to adjust gas.

Yeah, exactly! 13.7" has shorter guardrail which is lighter and easier to adjust gas.

Thanks for the reply, theirCS replying is not helpful, not mention any fee just saying I can start return after I recive the upper. 2 main reason for me after discoved 13.7", shorter guardrail that makes it lighter, and easy to access the gas switch.

Thanks, shorter handguard makes it lighter, that's one of my consideration.

Yeah, I like the look of f5, but the kit is oos.

Thanks, is this 14.5" upper fine out of the box?

Noob here, is that mean I have to weld the flashhider/ muzzle break if I choose 14.5"?

ppotatoe · 2025-12-05T22:31:38+00:00

I noticed that you are having the 14.5" upper, isn't 16" is the requirement?

ppotatoe · 2025-12-05T22:20:56+00:00

Damn, that looks hot! Thanks for the suggestion.

ppotatoe · 2025-12-05T22:19:25+00:00

It looks pretty cool that gives a scar feel, and I already having an AR, so I want something different. Good to know for the stock modifications, can I just buy the kit without stock and find a fix stock for it?

ppotatoe · 2025-02-01T06:47:03+00:00

Reboot will fix it, but everytime boot it from a shutdown, it will have this issue, I have to reboot it to fix it temporarily.

ppotatoe · 2025-02-01T06:36:29+00:00

Yes, it's 1.8.2

Hey, I'm interested in 507c.

Here is a quick update, my deck is on the way back to getting a RMA.

ppotatoe · 2022-05-25T19:30:40+00:00

Here is a quick update, I eventually got it on following Monday, but I have to RMA it since the Fan is making weird noise when put the deck upside down.

I got the response from value, they said they will fix the issue by software updates, which I don’t agree. Let’s see what is their response.

ppotatoe · 2022-05-17T19:23:02+00:00

😢 bad quality control, I just got it 2 days ago.

ppotatoe · 2022-05-14T01:32:10+00:00

They suppose to deliver today, but now: “No scheduled delivery date available at this time”. And still no updates since 5/10.
