Always appreciate when you demo the micro-details that ‘can’ produce that “Wait a Minute Vine” snafu! Often times, videos only show a perfect install & you’re left with figuring out how to “workaround” (as you put it) erupting issues/problems. GREAT Video - THX🇺🇸
Pretty simple, but a bit of a hassle with the ARMaglock for us Californians. I didn't want to risk stripping the head of the screw of the ARMaglock, however, I was able to install it even though it was blocking the pin completely. Since the B.A.D. lever is easy enough to take off, might as well. And since I didn't have a vice, I used your trick with the Glock magazine, thanks for that, helped me quite a bit.
Hey OreGear I noticed you have a Noveske short through selector , how do you like it ? I bought one for my Colt but didn't notice it was made from polymer until I installed it . Looks good though just more plastic .... Really wish I read a little more lol
+Al Codie I love it! I have it on a couple lowers. As far as I’m concerned, it’s what all other short throw ambi safeties are trying to be. I’ve got several thousand rounds through rifles with that safety and never had any durability issues. I’ve also never had a screw back itself out
Its funny how these have became must have upgrades when they were created as fixes for high round count lowers or loose drop trigger assembles. I see so many guys buying brand new PSA AR's using mil spec triggers and they install these. That is just throwing away 30 bucks they could have spent on a upgrade that would actually improve the rifle. Maybe they just think they look cool? IDK. If your pin walks a couple mils that is normal. It will not come out that is why they have the divots in the pins.
They're for full auto and suppressed rifles. The high reciprocation/pressure produced in those situations causes pins to walk out. Either way, what's wrong with putting it on your rifle anyway? It really looks good on an AR-15. Does every little tactical gadget on your rifle really have to be used for the intended purpose? How often have casual gun owners had to use a forward assist? Calm down, Inspector Killjoy. Let people enjoy things. The AR platform is the Barbie doll for men; let us have fun.
Nate B. That’s bullshit. All m16s are burst and I’ve never seen a trigger pin walk out in the military. I’ve shot thousands of rounds on burst. Even more on semi
These fancy pins are nothing but a cosmetic upgrade. Here's your proof... The whole AR15 platform is held together by pins that are held in place by detents under pressure. The only way hammer and trigger pins would EVER fall out, is if you removed them and didn't install them correctly or if you installed the wrong size pins. If pins falling out was a problem, it would have been remedied decades ago like the rest of the other changes that were made to reduce faults. They chromed the chamber and bore to reduce failed extraction. They added a brass deflector to stop brass from hitting lefty shooters in the face. They added a forward assist to clear a short stroke feed ect ect. If ARs were prone to walking pins, that would be a huge liability issue. Ineffective pins could be a very dangerous situation, with countless massive legal repercussions. It's like Ford selling a car that's known to have the wheels fall off once in awhile but they choose to sell them regardless. Your AR15 does not need these pins. Only people who use them are people who own a Instagram AR that they treat like it's entering a beauty pageant with stupid ass colors and painted rollmarks.
+RageQuit003 For a trigger that came from the factory, I love it. If I were starting from scratch, I'd probably wait for a Geissele sale and spend a little more money for one of those. That said, if you want to keep a mil spec style trigger, the ACT is very nice!
+OreGear The only Geissele I've run is the Super SCAR. However that was an insane difference...especially on rapid fire. I've seen a few youtubes run this ACT including Hoss and it looks pretty close speed wise. I run that ALG AKT in my M10 AK but can barely tell the difference between that and the modded G2's I make. So I was wondering if I should try an ACT or just polish up what I got.
I've only used the SSA and SSA-E triggers, both of which are amazing! The ACT can be run very quickly, but it retains the weight and reliability of a mil spec. Most mil specs in my experience are very inconsistent as far as feel and weight, whereas the ACT is exactly the same every single time. Not the lightest, but still very crisp.
@@savage101. mate I will take what I can get honestly! I will make this worth your while because you are doing me a massive favour. Shoot me an email so I can delete my address from this thread and we can plan there if that suits you. I can let you know what model etc I am after.
+Joe11Blue The prevent your trigger and hammer pins from walking out while firing. Many rifles have an issue with the pins drifting under recoil. These prevent that from happening. Thanks for watching!
The pins also will not rotate in the receiver like the stock ones do. I had a Colt receiver hammer pin hole get excessively worn by the movement . I like to punch the J spring out of the hammer when doing this mod. The J spring becomes unnecessary and the hammer moves more freely without it.
+Joe11Blue drop in trigger groups are different animals. I assume you are talking about the CMC or Timney type units. They have their own pivot pins in the housing and the pins that go through the receiver simply hold the housing in place. I fixed my Colt by dropping in a CMC trigger with the oversize pins that came with it. It's great!
Hmm, thanks. I wanted to pick up the Fostech Echo, would have been my first drop in. I might just toss the money at something else really nice, since I already have it saved.
So your pins don't come loose with excessive shooting. Some triggers don't use the same springs as others and the pins will "walk out" when shooting or with movement.
Samuel Alzate we used to have a place in Cornelius by Unger road. Lovely place and my neighbors have nice kids who used to help us with the grapes I planted.
+Nasty2015 Well fortunately RU-vid is kind enough to provide the length of a video before you select it, so next time I'd encourage you to find one that fits your fast paced lifestyle.
+OreGear Ignore the trolls sir. Apparently, time really isn't an issue for this moron since he is going out of his way to leave trolling comments behind. If it took him the entire video length to realize it was not of his liking, well, I'll leave the remainder of my comment about the troll to your imagination. Thanks for the video by the way.
