I decided to put the push button on my surefire. (Disregard the ambi badger g3 sharping handle. I sold my gas buster, and now I am in need for another one.
I wish the serialized uppers would have been around a few months earlier. I ended up with a Diemaco anchor harvey cqbr-0522 marked upper that I got to replace my current Diemaco. Shitty part is I got the marked upper right after installing the 4p with rocksett and after installing the gas block with loctite per badger ord. instructions. I know there are tricks to getting the 4p off, but im still avoiding it. If I don't do it soon, im afraid the stripped/marked upper will turn into anther block2.

I could definitely see heat expanding and breaking the bond, but the heat won't affect the Rocksett itself. I got tired of waiting on a Knightstick (was told 2 months a year ago) so I bought the MI one for 308 just so I could swap out the FH to the MAMS. It's built very well. |

Just a quick note for those interested in breaking Rocksett free on installed MD's... I've done quite a few of them.
The MI URR is indeed your friend. It works better than G's reaction rod as is spreads the torque load into the upper receiver as well. Money well spent. Truth be told, I stopped doing the hot water soak prior to MD removal. Between the MI URR & and a 1/2" breaker bar they come off like butter. I've also used Rocksett sparingly as indicated in the letter above. You really DON'T need to add much when installing a MD. This coming from someone who shoots suppressed exclusively, and the MD's are subject to more torque pulling the can's off at regular intervals... Never an issue, the juice & proper MD torque works. Carry on |
