I want to know if it'll clear the handguard or do I need an extension, like the XL piston or such. This is for the 1/2 thread barrel. I want to buy the piston and fixed barrel spacer as soon as I can. |

What red dots are any of you running? I tried one that 1/3 cowitnesses on my ARs, and on the Scorpion it sat way too high. Mine is SBR'd with CZ factory stock, and I hold it up pretty high so I want a red dot that sits down as low as the factory sights. I also don't have Aimpoint money right now, more like Primary Arms money, but I'd like to know what else works well for this.

You don't need the Neilsen device, but the piston is what the Osprey uses for a mount. You buy one in the appropriate thread pitch then use either the fixed barrel spacer of the spring depending on whether you are using the can on a fixed barrel gun or a Browning-type pistol. |

Hey guys, I'm sorry. I'm trying to get the handguard retaining nut off. I know there was some discussion before about this but I'm not able to find it.
I put the nut in a vice and rotated the whole gun. I managed to scuff up my threads a little  . but that's okay because I was going to get this re-threaded to 1/2x28.
But I have the nut rotated about 45 degrees. However the slant of the handguard isn't allowing me to get my wrench in effectively and the nut is still quite tight. What's the best method to remove the barrel nut? |

Get the nut and put a soldering iron inside the barrel for 10 minutes.
I was in the same situation when I removed mine.. Nut half turned that couldnt be engaged with a standard wrench due to the handguard Shape... Buy the propper tool from CZ and put the entire upper into a wise

Picked up an EVO, couple things that should be noted
1. Magpul AFG 1 does NOT fit. AFG2 only 2. The LAGE Side folder is awesome with a shockwave blade, however it necessitates 'cheeking' higher than naturally comfortable. I'm using a Primary arms micro, and I really want a riser-I threw my Aimpoint PRO on it, it presented much more comfortably |

I have bought much crap in life- this LAGE is not that, it is very sturdy and locks up tight, in the folded position it is not locked, but a comfortable amount of force keeps it folded. When deployed it is completely sold-as much as a single piece. |

If you don't mind, I'd like to hear what you did to yours. Thanks. I adjusted both, Hinge plate as low as possible, threaded portion as low as it would allow- you cannot go all the way, or the tube will not go in. Also, there is a small conical screw that locks up the tube (and will mar the tube also-if that matters) I am still finding my happy spot, but once I do, I recommend locktite on that screw, it loosed a bit when shooting, I assume you could also drill into the tube for a good lock |

Is anybody having issue with inserting mags after installing aftermarket mag release levers?
I installed gearhead levers. They are a great design, but my mags are hard to load now I have to really jam them in there, and sometimes even pull the lever back to lock them in. Going to try switching back to the stock levers to see if the problem goes away. |

Going to try switching back to the stock levers to see if the problem goes away. Make sure you installed it properly and didn't crunch/bend the spring. I had this issue when I crunched my factory spring after installing the HBI release. The spring sits in there a certain way and if you don't get it right when installing in destroys the spring which causes the release to bind. |

I am sure it has been answered somewhere so apologies in advance but, what do I need to do to ship the Evo (what carrier, service)?
It is going as the complete pistol lower to get engraved. Does it need to go next day (also throwing some lower receivers in there as well). Pacakge is 12lbs and $130 if I do next day, which I want to avoid. |

Going to try switching back to the stock levers to see if the problem goes away. Yes, having this issue as well. Thought I was the only one. Release is installed correctly Same here, exact same issue. I emailed gearhead and they replied that it's the first they've heard of this problem and to make sure the spring is installed correctly. They also suggested to install the release without the spring and if that didn't work send the lower down for them to look at it. Still had the same issue without the spring. I uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times. The factory release worked fine. I even shaved/sanded the gearhead release where it contacts the magazine lip. This helped but didn't solve it completely and the release was still digging into the magazine lip. I'm not sending my lower to them as I'm fairly certain I was installing the spring correctly. Ordered an HBI and no issues. Gearheads safety lever works great for me though. |

Well, I worked for a FFL for years, and shipped guns all the time. It really depends on your locale. I have had to do that as well in a previous life, however-proving is not part of the guideline (unless I'm mistaken) heck one time in Columbia SC, USPS made me show a rifle was disassembled 
at my current location I often just say, "It's going from this gun shop to that Gunshop" and no problems. |

Bob S. Looks awesome. That is a Holosun sight, correct? Could you give me an approximate measurement from the top of the rail to the center of the lense? Also, exactly which model is that? Thank you for your time. |

Thank you for your time. It's a model HS503C - solar with circle/dot reticle. Top of the rail to lens center is 7/8". Hope this helps, Bob S. |

Well, I worked for a FFL for years, and shipped guns all the time. It really depends on your locale. I have had to do that as well in a previous life, however-proving is not part of the guideline (unless I'm mistaken) heck one time in Columbia SC, USPS made me show a rifle was disassembled
at my current location I often just say, "It's going from this gun shop to that Gunshop" and no problems. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PreachermanMATT:
