So selling the WOTs at $199 to:

The money raised by the sales of these WOTs will be used to fund litigation in the following order, based on availability of funds and the evaluation on a case by case basis: 1) Litigation by RBT against the DOJ/ATF; 2) and to assist individuals who have been wrongfully accused of a crime for possession of an FRT-15; 3) to seek the return of property (FRT-15s) wrongfully taken from individuals by the ATF.

Equipment?
You mean like no laptop, no sat up-link?
Pretty sure that's called 'equipment'.
He was pulling info off reformatted drives, that they thought they had wiped clean, and sending it back to this country in real time, in 1993-4. Almost 30 years ago.

“was able to pull up long deleted shit off their computers with his equipment” — you said he pulled it off “with his equipment” you weren’t talking about their computers you were acting like your friend had special equipment to get it off. And reformatting a hard drive can be done dozens of ways so that means nothing, they could have reformatted the operating system and never even deleted the information portion when formatting. You also said “pulled up long deleted shit”, it’s not long deleted it’s just in the cache of the hard drive lol we were just lucky they (like most terrorists) are dumb as fuck

The only way to really be sure information can never be retrieved from a hard drive is to destroy it - as in beat it to peices with a hammer, grind it into dust, etc.

I messed with one that another guy owned before all the ATF shenanigans. It did not get along with my rifle's upper I slung on his lower. Not a user error thing either, we got it to sing on one guy's rifle. Definitely did not like mine, though.

Probably some form of timing or bolt bounce issue.  Lots of little problems show up when you're trying to cycle 700+ times per minute.  Incorrect buffer is the most common problem followed by out of spec parts or tolerance stacking that has no affect on traditional semi auto AR's.

IME, the WOT has a lighter pull than the FRT.  It likes to make a nice brass arc
I haven't put a lot of rounds through one.

LMT MRP 12.5" carbine gas barrel, LMT EBCG and Ebolt, suppressed with Rugged Razor. The lower was a shitty throw away basically, no name local company that wasn't even anodized on the inside. I have no idea what the buffer weight and spring combo were but I'm guessing they weren't quality and were too light for suppressed use.

Generally you need an H or H2 buffer to combat bolt bounce. Without the heavy buffer the bolt carrier will bounce backwards and the hammer will get dropped in the middle of the bounce. The hammer will then follow the bolt carrier back down but it won't properly strike the firing pin and you'll need to reset the hammer to continue firing.

It may be something else causing a timing issue.  BCG, barrel, and upper fitment can all affect when the trigger is allowed to be pulled again.

I would swap the BCG and use the H2 buffer, then try again.

Never looked at any of those links until now.
Wow, they just go out and say it. "FRT machinegun"
Only looked over the first couple pages. But every one of them they called the triggers by themselves "machineguns"

So are these people who are on this list also arrested and charged with a felony? Or are they just taking them and slapping them on the wrist?

Not sure I've mentioned it but I find it interesting the triggers alone are classified as such. But I guess the same goes for the auto sears.  THEY are the machine gun, NOT the gun they are loaded into.  Yet how many JBT would happily give up their current issued weapons for a bare trigger?  And could you get a bare trigger to fire rounds?  

To your questions, I'm curious about that.  And in addition, have we seen ANY evidence of them going after people that bought directly from RBT and/or dealers that bought directly from RBT and then sold them in their shop(s) or is it mostly from the one gunbroker guy they pinched?

Hard to duplicate the hardened steel parts, like the hammer at home.
The body would be simple with a mill, and all you would need is a sample to take dimensions from.

They are very similar. The WOT is a copy that was built outside the US and imported by Big Daddy Unlimited. Functionally they behave the same. Rare Breed sued Big Daddy for patent infringement. Rare Breed appears to have won and got all the WOT's as part of their settlement.

Makes me wonder, if they are not arresting these people or charging them, and just taking away the triggers, if they are getting put on a "list" for future prosecution.

They don't have enough prosecutors to go after everyone. IMO, they're also worried about losing. I doubt they go after normal people, they'll just threaten prosecution and confiscate them.

Can you compare the Alamo-15 by Graves in the same manner?

Why did Rare Breed not go after the Alamo 15 like it did the WOT?  Did it not violate Rare Breed's patent?

I have an additional thought, which I will share below, but first I wanted to observe that I sincerely doubt it is a lack of prosecutors.   Had they captured you or me with 10,000 unregistered machine guns, they would definitely prosecute.  That is potential infinity prison time . . .

And yet they caught a Rare Breed person, at gunpoint, lay on the asphalt, with 10,000 Rare Breed triggers.

I have to think it is a fear that the lenity standard in criminal prosecutions would be used against them.  Better from their vantage point to have a civil case where the standard is not so stringent and get a friendly judge to watch the video and hold, "Oh, yeah, that looks like a machine gun to me."

This is the same route that the ATF took, successfully, with bump stocks.  They dismissed criminal actions while the .gov defended all the lawsuits, and now it is a closed door.  Bump stocks are machine guns.  Why change a strategy that wins?



In addition, they are focusing on getting the same result through different means.   Go after and pressure the FFLs and vendors.  Pressure civilians when you can locate them and find them.  Pretty soon these triggers are basically nonexistent.

Then, when the civil process is done and federal judges are all finished declaring these triggers machine guns, the ATF can more safely prosecute the few who still possess them and are stupid or unlucky enough to get caught.

Apparently they did, and they now have orders against the company and Allen Graves, individually, with millions in damages (almost $4 million).  Allen Graves allowed the case against him to go to a default judgment.

The Alama 15 is built like a tank. I have one on a PWS 7.XX" piston upper. Runs like a sewing machine with a Geissele H3 Super 42 with and without my Sandman S. Gonna try to get a Shrike for it this upcoming year.

Buddy just picked up one of these lawsuit WOT for a Micro 5.56 he's planning on. Eager to compare the two.

[#45]
So I installed a Graves Alamo-15 in my FN-15.  Nothing has been modified on my FN rifle.  The gun now shoots one round and stops.  I have to cycle the blot manually, ejecting a loaded cartridge, and then I can shoot again, once, and must manually cycle the gun again, ejecting a loaded round.

The loaded rounds have a very light primer strike.

When empty, I pull the trigger and keep my finger on it as I cycle the bolt manually.  I feel it physically reset as I cycle it.  

So why is it not working when I am actually shooting it?

The FN15 Tac 3 has an "H buffer" - the package says an H-2 or heavier buffer is needed.   I can't find anything about an "H" buffer, just H1, H2, H3 . . . ah, wait, it look like H is H1.

So I will order an H2.

Should this correct the light primer strike issue and get my FN15 operating correctly with the Graves Alamo-15?  Anybody with any insight please chime in.  Merry Christmas!

Yes, your symptoms sound like possible bolt bounce. If you have an H3, you can make an H2. I normally don't need an H3 to run, most guns run fine with an H or H2. I keep all three common buffers available so it's easy to swap them out and eleminate issues if they pop up.

Unfortunate you are having issues. Hopefully that fixes the issue. I haven't tried any other upper other than the piston one yet. I didn't have any sort of break-in or anything that was needed.
