Sorry to say, but anyone who pays attention to NF's long winded diatribes about products isn't in the market for it to begin with.
If I were gonna drop the cash on a LaRue rifle, it sure as hell isn't going to be based on the thoughts of a mouthbreathing retard. Just sayin'. If anything, I have discovered that if Nutnfancy doesn't like something, then it's probably an awesome product. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Those are different gas blocks. The LaRue is meant to be installed without the triangle ring. The other one is meant to be used with a triangle ring. When you install a TR block without using a TR, you have to leave that gap. It's installed correctly. Depends. I had a noveske barrel with a PRI, the PRI had to be all the way back to work. Ive installed a larue on a barrel that needed a little space to work. Doc Zox mentioned in the other version of this thread that his MAS defense barrels shoulder had no cap spacing so he had to drill his FSB in order to use it. I have had several manufacturers gas blocks that need a bit of playing with to work with other manufacturers barrels. Should measure to be sure. (Or at least the old bottom hole flip.) There is no evidence that he did either, only that he "used air". Things we know: 1. Nutn is an idiot. 2. Pictures showing non-stock gas block installed on propriety barrel. 3. Pictures of form from Larue stating nutn installed it wrong. 4. Only video of it working it has stock gas block. 5. He is using low powered ammo in cold environment, any small blockage is going to cause issues. 6. He states a bias towards thinking gas port is too small, and belief in his mastery of gasblocks, which would lead to not fixing. 7. He ends up doing the worst possible solution. If he had just brought some allen wrenches out the range, and played with placement, shot a few rounds played with placement, he may have been able to get away without measuring, but he didnt. Here is an example of what I am talking about, same gas block, different barrels, notice spacing?   Now I dont know how Larue does spacing on his Stealth barrels, but we do know Nutn did it wrong per Larue customer service. |

Thanks for those pictures also. I gotta admit I have never had a gas block hole in the barrel that was based on me having one of those rings on it. Yes, I have to always make sure the gas holes line up. That is just common sense and you eyeball it and if in doubt measure it. If the gas block is the same maker as the barrel then I usually just eyeball it. I have no idea what NF did detail wise because he talks too much.

Use it as a learning experience of what not to do either in shop or on the internet and move on. I know I would have liked to have seen a much more professional response.

You can tell if there are any obstructions to flow using air pressure. The port on the gas block is slightly larger than the hole on the barrel. Its not hard to align a gas block, even without using air or pins. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Improperly installing aftermarket parts does void your warranty if they are responsible for the issue. Since you seem to think using a compressed air tank to assure proper alignment is a good practice, it makes me question that you know anything about building ARs at all. You can tell if there are any obstructions to flow using air pressure. The port on the gas block is slightly larger than the hole on the barrel. Its not hard to align a gas block, even without using air or pins. And yet we have photographic evidence earlier in the thread that your hero fucked it all up. |

The most telling thing to me, is that in videos where it works, the Larue is back on there, at no point does it work with him having the PRI installed. If drilling it was the solution he would have the PRI still on there. |

1 - he is not a professional gunsmith 2 - he altered the product 3 - he gave up on them after the second time LaRue was kind enough to work with him despite the fact he altered their product. Most manufacturers would not service it at all. It might have been worth a third attempt, yes? Again, I have never seen anything but quality and outstanding CS from LaRue. To say different is being disingenuous. But the fact remains that LaRue took in the rifle, and sent it back to him twice as "fixed" when it in fact was not fixed. A trip to customer service should only take one time. Three is an absolute joke. He sent them the entire rifle the 2nd time. If this is going to boil down to "aftermarket parts", they should've stated that on his repair invoice and told him they won't warranty it anymore. How many car dealers would help you out on your "warranty" after you bought some car parts of the internet and put them on by yourself? All of them do. There's this thing called the Magnuson-Moss Act You don't understand how that works. If you change the brake pads to non OEM and the brakes fail, the OEM isn't responsible under MM. The AC would still be covered. In this case, the MM comparison would lead to no coverage. |

So, if I'm getting this right, an internet reviewer received a rifle, disassembled it, painted it, assembled it incorrectly, and is now blaming the manufacturer when post disassemble/assemble trouble-shooting didn't go well?
So, if I buy a new car and screw up taking the engine apart for fun on the first day, and it still has problems after Ford or whoever attempts to undo my screw-ups, Ford is a lousy company? Solid logic! |

To summon LaRue product owners on Arfcom to shit all over NutnFancy's youtube comments section for this vid - a social media Crusade? Basically, that's why this thread was created. Again, for transparency, I don't own a single LaRue product but would like to. But if I own LaRue I am pretty pissed that a guy with 500k followers on youtube basically calls my upper a piece of crap after he was the one that fudged the bucket trying install parts on it. It's like sending a gun to Guns and Ammo having them break it on purpose then report that it has FTF and FTE problems. I mean he essentially took a full page ad in the paper out knocking his product when it seems pretty apparent that he made the gun not work. What is LaRue supposed to do? Not defend themselves. It is entirely different than you or I coming on here and posting a Debbie Downer thread on LaRue, we don't have the same exposure. I don't think (and I could be wrong) that if you made a thread chronicling your experience with LaRue customer service you would get a response thread started by LaRue. But with TNP making videos for a lot of gun owners to see, and then having a thread here about it (not TNP I think someone else started that), Mark didn't want his response buried among 17 pages. I think he has the right to defend his product in whatever way he chooses. |
