My lower currently has a ACS stock + milspec tube on it that I desperately want to take off, but I’m having trouble.
When I installed the milspec tube, I didn’t want to have it come loose so I applied locktite on it. I may have been an idiot and used locktite red…
Now I can’t seem to get the castle nut out. So my question is, will a stove top get hot enough for me to melt the loctite? And if so, is it ok to take my lower and place it onto a stove? How will I know when the loctite has melted?
Thanks.
This guy DID go on to try heating his gun on the Stove top. :eek:
work on my mid length upper? i like the look but i cant find any pictures of one on a mid length.
does anybody have any pics?
i know its fake… expensive… pointless… but i like the way it looks over the a2 flash hider and cant afford/dont need a real one right now…
thanks
Retard.
…A brilliant response to the perennial ‘WTF do KNS pins do?’ question…
It prevents trigger pins from rotating out from the vibration of the rifle being fired.
Nothing a little red Locktite cant fix.
Yes. This tard is breathing the same air as the rest of us.
There is no reason to stake the castle nut on a non-combat weapon. They do it because .mil does it, and that’s what people want to see. Blue loc-tite is fine
So being a fan of NASCAR automatically makes you retarded? Damn, I guess I’ll tell my friend the MD, another friend that is literally a rocket scientist, and other lawyer friend they are retarded. Also didn’t know that all freestyle moto riders were dead or paraplegic by 22. Well, maybe the lawyer is slightly retarded.
I posted a while back that I was having some fitment issues with my buffer tube. If I threaded it in all the way to meet the retainer pin flushly, I could not seat the upper reciever into the lower. Short term solution was to back the tube out one turn, but then I encountered some stock wobble due to some slop in the groove with the pin. This was all regardless of how much I torqued the castle nut.
So. . . I was drinking a beer and decided to investigate the situation further. My final conclusion was that the buffer tube was just too long. Now what? Well I’ll tell you. I decided to have another beer and use a bench grinder for some “custom fitting”. I ground off approximately 1 thread on the tube, but didn’t grind on the lip where the retainer pin fits in.
From what I can tell, everything appears to be working normally. I have not fired the gun yet though.
This is one of my favorite and sadly, it is from M4C. LINK
This guys attitude has to be a classic. As you can see in his Thread, he was a grenade with the pin pulled…
He was finally banned but not without warning.
My post in reply to a person asking about BM quality.
I Voted no.
You asked us to support our vote so here you go.
* Lack of proper materials.
* Lack of proper testing. MPI/HP testing of individual bolts and barrels (Batch is fine if you happen to get the one from the batch the tested)
* No M4 Feedramps on M4 style guns.
* Weaker Commercial style RE.
* Incorrect FSB makes using any BUIS a problem without replacing the front sight post.
* marginal staking on the Gas key.
* No staking on the Castle nut.
* 1/9 twist barrel on supposed Personal defense and duty reason weapons. Makes using the proper ammo problematic.
* They are priced more in the same range with a BCM, DD, or Colt and yet they offer none of the benefits of any of these companies.
* A general crappy attitude for a company. I have never had a good experience with support.
And I get this reply later in the day.
What "Improper materials?
Show me one failed Bushmaster bolt.
3.Wrong, M4s can be ordered with M4 feedramps and receiver extensions, up to dealer to do so, standard come without.
4.I agree but do not order collapser stocks from Bushmaster.
5.Have you measured the height of the Bushmaster upper receiver before you made this claim or are you basing this opinion on the front sight base not having an “F” marked on the surface?
6.You saw one or two gas keys lightly staked on the internets and formed this opinion.
Show me a Bushmaster bolt carrier group that has actually failed at the gas key.
Staking is a “Redundancy” do you know what this means?
7.No staking at gas key,the end user can easily add staking should they wish to do so or perhaps they leave the staking off to make upgrade or replacement easier.
Show me a collapser stock that has failed because the castle nut wasn’t staked.
Staking is a “Redundancy” do you know what that means? 8. Mark Westrom, President of Armalite Inc. has amply demonstrated the versatility of the 1-9" twist, lethality is actually INCREASED using a 1-9" twist and bullets up to 65 grains in weight.
The 1-7" twist stabilizes heavier bullets but actually DECREASES lethality using common 55-65 grain military specification ammunition.
The Swedes chose the 1-7" twist for just this reason.
Bushmaster offers 1-7" twist barrels as an option that must be specified on order. 1-9" twist is default. 9. Price is on par because quality is on par.

This guy’s stupidity has actually affected my IQ and has caused me to feel less intelligent.
