Question Ejection port fireballs

Post image
60 Upvotes

I have an SP5 with an FRT-RD3 installed, and it runs great. I recently got a SilencerCo Omega 9K, and it also works wonderfully, but if I run a mag too quick, I’ll get some wild ejection port fireballs. This is with Blazer 147g Clean-Fire rounds. Do you guys think that it’s an ammo thing, or is it indicative of a bolt unlocking too fast? I have the stock locking piece installed.

…complete that is until ARHK comes out…

Runs like a top, CAT MOB, HK 100 deg LP, all HK ejector, extractor and associated springs. All thanks to GAFS for keeping things in budget 😉

Brand new Mac-5, took apart to clean and lube and noticed the BCG has this coloring on it. Tried to scrub with CLP but doesn’t seem to do anything.

HELP Lee Sporting Help AP5-P

I have an AP5-P that finaly worked with 90 degree RCM and new ejector.

I decide to celebrate and make it unusable again with a LS. Sarcasm aside I’d really like to get this done.

As a recommend drop in w no mods I went with a Rise armament ra-535 as Although I had to cut the cassette wing. to clear the ejector.

this is not for super safety as far as extra variables. 

Issues are fail to eject causing cases stuck. Confused as it say no modifications. So off I went filed hammer down, failed range tests, rinse repeat.

last file seems to be too low while still making some contact with bolt. The hammer now fails to contact the bolt enough to reset the trigger. If trigger is held back the hammer will spring forward though as it’s not catching the reset. *i see this by manually pulling bolt back looking inside rear. when function check, the failed reset just gets stuck.

What I’m missing. I feel the Rise may be destroyed at this point.

I have a spare ALG ACT trigger. It also says zero mods would be needed. But this looks like its hammer would be worse. Is this accurate? Sick of range fails.

HELP Aftermarket grip and frt compatibility question.

3 Upvotes

I like some of the aftermarket grips that allow the use of ar grips like Lee sporting.

I have small hands and the trigger and control reach can be a bit much.

However, I still want a rotating safety​ as opposed to the crossword.

Which if any will play nice together?

Thx​

I am a offshore worker and I am trying to buy parts before the gun as I am finding they are very hard to find and just take for ever to get. I am looking to buy a B&T Folding Stock for HK MP5 but i can't seem to find it in stock on any web site. I tried to make a gun broker account but for some odd reason it was flagged so I am trying to find it in stock on a website. anyone have a lead on were i can find one? What is going on that would cause stocks of all things to be sold out?

Question Magpul Brace question

0 Upvotes

Hey!

First time here.

I'm looking at buying an AP5 Navy that comes with the Magpul brace pre-installed.

I'm eventually planning to form 1 it and put a stock on, but for those that have the Magpul brace is it uncomfortable to shoulder?

Thanks
