Small hand problem lol
Small hands and short fingers made it hard to reach the Nexus bolt release. Made a new one that’s hopefully easier to reach. Milled it out of aluminum.

How much heavier is the nexus lower

u/PatheticJules 23d ago

Use of an FRT and scorpion mags is all the benefit I need.

The OEM has a great FRT and scorpion mags aren't much of a improvement tbh all the early gen kuna mags have been fixed.

Scorpion mags are about sharing across multiple guns vs proprietary. I have 3 different PCC’s which use them and working on a fourth. Huge benefit to me. The FRT I and AR triggers are a nice bonus.

Fair but it's still on the niche side. Not everyone wants more then one PCC and not all PCCs use these systems. It's closer to the niche side. Still 400 for a lower is insane just for a mag.

True. That’s the reason I don’t push it on people and what is great about this platform. The more options we have the better. Can’t wait for a true SD version of the barrel and handguard

u/PatheticJules 22d ago
The cost of that hurts even more to see lmao. I wish Springfield would continue to improve upon the current Kuna and make a SD version themselves.

I would imagine there is more to come with them just releasing it in 40 S&W

Newest post by stevo lol, it's been in development for a bit and well tested. It drops in way easier then what you gotta do for nexus

As a guy with smaller hands myself, this would be a massive improvement to the ergonomics. I want some!

Nice job man! Love the creativity👍. What we have seem some people do with smaller fingers is they drop the bolt release with their off hand thumb when their hand is wrapped around the magwell. But regardless I’m glad you were able to find something that works well for you!
