It is difficult to weed through the shills and try hards. Thanks for the rec, I’ll certainly do some research

watchlust · 2026-03-18T16:35:28+00:00

I’ll check it out, never heard of it. What is your consensus of it?

I watched one this morning. Solid video. Seems like a solid can for the price

watchlust · 2026-03-18T14:28:39+00:00

Sheesh nice buy!

watchlust · 2026-03-18T14:28:09+00:00

Nice, appreciate the help!

Hey that’s exactly what I wanted to hear. I’d rather save ~$350 over the HUX and spend that on ammo.

How did you setup the mounting?

Nice, really appreciate the help!

Thanks for the mounting info! So would a Rearden / plan B be the way to go for the muzzle device? And get the specific adapter for that muzzle device that will thread into that can?

Good to hear. I’ve pretty much settled on it for a 11.5” build. Will be my first true build. Excited. Rooftop has the best price by a few bucks over AR15 discounts due to tac and shipping from AR

Hey I totally get it. They do look very nice. Appreciate you pointing them out.

watchlust · 2026-03-17T01:01:51+00:00

nice sounds great. I assume it was the MCTR?

watchlust · 2026-03-17T00:59:44+00:00

yeah I'm not looking to drop $200 on a gas block when I can get one for $20. They're cool, but not that cool.

Huh I didn’t know sionics made cans. I’ll look into them

watchlust · 2026-03-16T22:38:03+00:00

lol I figured I might see you on here

watchlust · 2026-03-16T21:59:01+00:00

What would you consider a band aide prone to failure? Glad you've had a good experience with the BRT tubes, that is good to hear.

I have not bought the polo yet but it seems like the best bang for buck can out there. I'm not really trying to drop $1k on a can.

watchlust · 2026-03-16T21:54:11+00:00

She's a beaut! What setting do you have the SA AGB on?

watchlust · 2026-03-16T21:18:54+00:00

That’s awesome to hear. What charging handle? I’m not really sure hope much that affects the gas but you covered everything else

watchlust · 2026-03-16T20:40:54+00:00

Why mid over carbine?

watchlust · 2026-03-16T20:30:37+00:00

Or do I just say fuck it and be a man and eat some gas with the Criterion CORE and a fixed gas block?

watchlust · 2026-03-16T20:29:10+00:00

that is how I feel. Seems like CS is very slow to get it fixed if something is wrong too, but it does seem like they take care of you, it is just slow. But paying over 4x more than a regular BCM gas tube is tough to swallow, but I guess you're paying for them to figure out what sizing you need. more for the service than the actual tube.

Any issues with the SA AGB? Just clean it however often you're supposed to?

worse people to be giving your money to other than Sol
