My lower just shipped so I'll mess around with them when it arrives. |

I should’ve just let you ship mine out with the last batch and the FFL could’ve sat on it for a week. I guess I have a project for 2027.

| I only had a moment but confirmed this issue with my variety of woodland and UCP 100s and UCP 200s. Looks like that edge on the sacks could be dremelled back. Or some small mod on the lower wouldn't bother me either. |

My lower just shipped so I'll mess around with them when it arrives. Thanks much, I have a couple coming from both members and other vendors. Issues: Mil-Spec Sacks Non-Issue: Mil-spec plastic porkchops Cloak Imported mini porks (Need to double confirm) Tribe Tactical sacks (Recommended!) Those Green gross plastic pork chops And evidently some Mil- Spec sacks (The UCP ones I have ) I will double check the UCP sacks we used for development and make sure we don't have some sort of batch issue on the lowers.

I have 20 USGI 100rd nutsacks. I just checked them and only one (a UCP one) will latch in and it requires a little force. The other 19 don't come close. They all rub and bind up on the trigger guard like the one shown in post #40 by @aod886. I checked the 5 USGI 200rd drums that I have an they all slide in and latch very easily. |

Hey @TZLVredmist, I have a LIMA SIX build kit on the way and would love to run this lower! I messaged you through the site contact form, but I wanted to drop a note here for visibility for other folks in Colorado. I noticed the product description states you don't ship lowers to CO. Under SB 25-003, transfers are fully legal through an FFL once the buyer holds the state SSF permit, which I am actively getting for this build. Would you be open to updating that policy to allow shipping to licensed CO FFLs for permit holders? |

I can look into the law side of it, and make a change where needed if it's legal and we can get you product. Ryan |

I got to the "pick your FFL from the map" part, but I didn't see a map or anywhere to pick an FFL on the site. Then I tried to manually enter my FFL, but I wasn't sure what to put for the first and last name since I didn't know my FFL's first and last name. I opened the site on a different laptop, and all of a sudden, I got a map and a few other things that were missing before. I think I messed something up with my cookies or cache. At first, there was a pop-up offering to have your order shipped with a free .50 cal can, but I noticed it made the shipping price jump an extra $12, plus I really didn't need another can. When I removed it, it seemed to cause a glitch. I think that's when nothing worked right afterward. They went out of their way to help me too. Excellent customer service! |

Thanks, Ryan! Really appreciate you looking into it. I’m ready to purchase as soon as you get the green light. Please let me know when it's updated so I can place my order and get on the list with everyone else! Feel free to PM or email me if you need any links to the state FFL compliance guidance. Looking forward to getting an IGM7 ordered! |

Got my lower today, looks good and got my requested serial number! Same slight swirl marks as shown in other's photos, not too concerned about those. I did test fit the four Woodland 100rd nutsacks I have, all four can't be seated. The plastic cover piece and the fabric where it attaches to the plastic crash with the front of the trigger guard area. |

The plastic cover piece and the fabric where it attaches to the plastic crash with the front of the trigger guard area. Hopefully using some plastic, or Tribe Tactical sacks will get you into an area of satisfaction on the lower. I am compiling a list of changes for it both cosmetic and functional for the next version. Heck folks haven't even gotten to use the best part! The catches! Ryan |

Cloak Industries has them on their site. I haven't seen them anywhere else yet. https://cloak-industries.com/product/5-56-cloth-nutsack-150-round/ |
| In reference to the mil-spec woodland camo nut sacks, I just smack the hell out of mine from the left side and it locks into place. I was buying them for $20 new in the package recently and picked up 12 of them(2005 manufactures date) . I'm heavily invested in them, I'll make them work. |

Picked up my IGM7 this morning. Very nice work, Inoculum! Now to Cerakote it to match my RRH upper. And decide which upper to get next for the second lower when it gets here in a couple months. A straight Lima 6 or wait for the piston version. Decisions, decisions. |

Again, it's going to be amazing when you get the catches for them, it truly is the cool part of the lower in my opinion. |

Got my 1st of 2 lowers yesterday. This lower is really nice. Hats off to Inoculum for a solid product and brought to market in an amazingly short amount of time. As noted in a previous post in this thread, I noticed the hole where the rear take town pin spring goes into is threaded. I can understand why (obviously) to capture the spring but I don't have tiny threaded part that goes in there. Anyone have any idea where to get one and I would also be curious what the thread pitch is. Lastly, if I thread a pin in there to capture the spring will it compress a normal length spring to much or is it not an issue? Thoughts? marks |

I am in the high 5700s for order numbers. You mentioned a version 2 because of the nutsack fitment issue. By the time you get to the high 5700s orders, will version 2 be implemented by then? I only ask because the USGI mil-spec surplus nutsacks are all I have accumulating since the Lima Six project started, and I wasn't planning on buying any more. If not, no biggie. The lower looks thick enough that I could remove a little from it and repaint. I was just curious. |

We added it as a feature and have sorta forgotten about it in the Chaos! Will add it going forward. |

The lower looks thick enough that I could remove a little from it and repaint. I was just curious. I plan to make a change immediately on the next batch. We will transition away from the ARF SNs to define the cut over. Material comes in around the 20th I believe. I am talking to the shop about it tomorrow. I will also address the other issues pointed out as well on finish and such and see if we can clean this project up some. I will have to be the one to fall on my own sword on this one... We should have caught it and made a better attempt at collecting more sacks, and had more people run the lower pre-production. |

The dove tails could be opened up a little also. It’s still pretty tight. I dremmed the area on the sack top to clearance the trigger guard area, it was still tight getting the top fully inserted. I then took a little off the underside of the sack top and it fit good. Breaking/ mitering the points of the dovetails at the start of insertion, would help fitting into the corner area at the end of the sack top. |

So my advice to future buyers: just buy the assembled upper! I do appreciate that lifetime warranty! You are a class act. |

If you build your own, read the manual and purchase what they suggest for the gasblock. Mine worked, but wasn’t running correctly: issues feeding, issues extracting. Probably boils down to the amount of gas I’m getting. Didn’t realize it was recommended to purchase other plungers for the riflespeed. Ordered those, troubleshooting other issues with the gas block right now, but probably would have had more success if I had read the manual. |

The recommended riflespeed plunger is .887, which they come with. They dont come with them installed from the factory, but they are in the box. Its worth noting that the lifetime warranty extends to the build kits, so dont hesitate to ask for help if you get stuck. |

I’ve already had long emails with Riflespeed about the gasblock. The plunger/spring don’t move freely when you disassemble it. I have to apply a lot of force to just get the knob to rotate over. It seems like the bottom of the plunger plate pivots instead of the top. But, they’re doing an amazing job working with me. Reminds me I need to get some photos for them. |

Part of the long haul crew I guess, we have about 12 orders from folks who placed final orders beginning of May, and did vouchers as well who are left to fulfill. It's been like 19 weeks for some people. I do in fact lose sleep over this, I can't fathom how it's taken this long. |
