Just back from the range. This one seems to be so close to working. I had the extra power spring in the CMMG kit and started with the stock spring in the part they call the trigger lock. It was not going fully into battery most times, but did work a few times. I tried one of the trigger lock springs that Fostech sent me, but neither of the two looked any different than the stock spring. Results were the same. eta: (I looked at the Fostech photo again and it clearly shows two different springs for the trigger lock. Something is fucky with the springs I got. I sent Fostech another email)
I am thinking that if I cut a coil or two off the trigger lock spring, this may run just fine. I didn't have a cutter with me and I was sweating balls. It is also, probably time that I run a scrubber in my CMMG chamber.
As touched upon by another poster, I could hit the forward assist and kick it into battery and it would fire. So damn close...........
The indoor range swamp coolers are the low buck variety and it was approaching 106 outside, so the temp differential sucked ass with additional ass sweat humidity.
I was using CCI Mini Mags and Aguila Super Extra copper bullets during this evolution.
The bottom line is that I think you can probably shoot a SD3G trigger as fast, or faster than this kit with an echo. I may change my mind if I get it running, but that is what I am thinking here. Maybe just stick to the 5.56 with the Echo as designed. Fostech selling CMMG kits may be false hope...............
