Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By dirtyharriett: WOOOOO HOOOOO... been waiting on these bad boys for a long time... I just bought TWO!!! I also just talked with Scott and he said these things are selling like hotcakes so if you guys want one you better get it quick!!! On another note... the locking tab placement is in a different position on the Gen1 GHM9's than the gen 2's. This means if you have a Gen1 GHM9 the stock will not lock when you fold it to the side. I use the B&T jet funnels on almost all of my B&T's. It holds the stock tab off of the gun chassis and keeps it from reaching into the lock in point. This means for anyone using the jet funnels on their GHM9's... this is a NON ISSUE anyway. |

Any confirmation that new stock will work with gen 1 9 and 45 but just won't lock up when folded?

dirtyharriett, confirmed that it’s the same hinge setup but the locking tab for the folded position doesn’t align on Gen 1s. I take that to mean the stock will work but you won’t be able to lock it in the folded position.

Gen 2 stock arrived this morning. No fit issues on my gen 1 GHM9... just does not lock into place as expected when folded but since I am using a jet funnel on my GHM9 it would not have locked into place when folded anyway. Overall I am over the moon... I absolutely love the look and the very comfortable supported cheek weld with this stock.

I love my MRO but my astigmatism makes it less than optimal. Is there something else that will work well on these B&T's, maybe an ACOG, Elcan or ? What makes a sight non-astigmatism friendly?

A great alternative to the MRO (or any red dot) for astigmatism sufferers is the Primary Arms Cyclops 1X prism scope. Small and rugged, it has bright, clear glass, an etched ACSS reticle, and LED illumination. The Cyclops comes with an absolute cowitness mount and the base of the scope is Aimpoint T1 compatible, so you can use any mount you choose. It also has a diopter adjustment which makes it useful for older eyes (like mine). And, it retails for about 1/3 of the price of the mini-ACOG line. I love mine; it's a real bargain, too. |

Range day update:
I put a Geissele SSA in my GHM9 Gen 2 before heading to the range today. The install was straightforward, I didn’t have to make any modifications to the trigger or the safety. I took with me: 147gr Federal Hi-Shok JHP 147gr Speer Lawman TMJ 115gr PMC Bronze FMJ The Geissele SSA would not strike the primers hard enough on the Lawman or the PMC to set them off, it did however eat all 50rd of the Hi-Shok without any hiccups. At the range I reinstalled the factory trigger and it ate all of the ammo without any issues, even the ones that had light strikes. I went ahead and ordered the Super APC Trigger from Geissele and will be returning to the range to test those two types of ammo for functionality. My assumption is that the hammer on the SSA does not have enough mass, it is CONSIDERABLY smaller than the factory hammer. I also have a BCM PNT Trigger laying around that I am going to test out with the same bunch of ammo. |

Did you take out that plate at the front of the trigger group? Maybe just preventing good primer hits.

I did look at the spent Federal casings and the firing mark was on par with what I’m used to seeing. Once I get the Super APC delivered I’ll compare both G triggers and the factory one for weight and dimensional differences. I’ll also take some measurements on how far each hammer face “hangs over” the bolt catch area. |

Have you had any issues with it (little quirks that annoy you)? ALSO That folding CH, how do you like that? Does it touch the receiver? As far as the Nano vs MRO, I like the nano better this far. No quirks to note, unless the battery type could be counted, it’s a CR1225 with a 1yr life constant on. I change batteries in all my optics on my birthday every year as good practice anyway so it doesn’t bother me. It does cowitness, and the tall mount is milled out so you can use the folding sights backup sights (pistol style sights on top of folders) while its still mounted. The charging handle does not touch when folded. |

Mention that the new B&T folding stock should also fit the P26 pistol. The rear mount is the same as on the ghm line up. |

Some Gen 2 have only a Trilug, so confirm before you order it if you want a trilug and threaded one. The shop I got mine from had both, a tri-lug only and a trilug with threads, so I chose to have both. |
