Ok i get that the bolt locks to the chamber.. and the direct impingement system means hot gas is not hitting hard like a piston.. but once that chamber opens i just dont see that lasting.

View Quote Not my thing, just reposing from those nuts on Reddit to show what's being worked on. I did not think the BCG would be very successful given the clearances needed for proper function. The designer was just trying things, he said he was getting more than a few shots. I would like to see the video from SOTAR reviewing it. |

Hmm
Ar10 type bolt in a printed carrier to make a printed bolt gun perhaps? Just thinking out loud |

Strong men create good times. Good times breed weak men. Weak men create hard times. (You are here) Hard times breed strong men.

Made this guy a while back but the trigger kept giving me problems. Finally spent some time and redesigned the trigger to work better and so i thought i should actually test it lol. Actually shoots surprisingly nice. Attached File modified on left - different ramp and height of the part that holds the striker, as well as a spring element which acts along with the spring element the frame to reduce the overall difficulty of moving the trigger rearward. |

View Quote That's what I was doing also - made a whole batch of them just in case. 3" barrel on that one, and the rest with the stock size to save on materials cost. |

View Quote Can you share your trigger? ETA, did you nix the drop safety? I've had very good luck with them. But I'll try it out since I actually like shooting them She''s Cheap Easy and Fun #3dprintedguns |
