Staking Bolt-Carrier Key Screws?--FOLLOW-UP PICS ADDED!!!

[tiger seven]

Grant, do you use the MOACKS on every carrier you sell before you ship it?

I know you only sell top-notch stuff, but I'm curious if they come to you from the factory with a proper staking job or if you "Mo-Wack" them before the go out the door.

Yes, I own both versions of the MOACKS and use them on every carrier that needs them. About the ONLY carrier key that I don't stake are the ones that come from LMT and BCM.

All of the BCG's I build or the Stag's that come through the shop (either in uppers, complete weapons or BCG's) are staked by me.

Thanks for the quick reply, Grant. The LMT one I got from you last week had such a nice, uniform staking that I was curious if it was a factory stake job or not. Either way, it's GTG. I think I need to pick up one of those Pocket MOACKS for future builds.

Thanks again.

Send it up with Tim. I'll fix it.

Thanks Rob. Haven't heard back yet from Tim when he's going. Let me know your fee and I'll see that he's adequately funded.

BTW - put another ~120 rounds thru after the re-tighten and screws are holding so-far. So no emergency, but realize they need staking for a permanent solution.

No charge Randy.

You are a gentleman, and I'll owe you a favor.

Hopefully I can connect with Tim before his trip up.

Well, I got my Pocket MOACKS from Ned yesterday. I tried it out tonight on one of my old and rather poorly staked carriers. Amazing! What a brilliant - and brilliantly simple - design. Thanks Ned!

Gladja like it, Derek!

+1. Well, actually +2 because I used my pocket MOACKS (P-MOACKS?) to stake two separate carriers. Simple to use and does what it claims to do.

gotm4 at Virginia Arms already has the re-staked carrier en-route back to me.

Talk about fast-fast-fast relief ! ! !

May very well be back-to-blammin' by week's end.

Shall report back with likely wrap-up.
