We bought a Argos Ordnance SPR and our first impressions are that it's a fantastically built rifle! We were super impressed by the attention to detail throughout the build!
I have two of these systems. One on a PSA 16" 5.56 and the other on a PSA 20" 6.5 Grendal. Griffin gate-lok muzzle devices for Griffin 30-SD can. Like that quick, no guess gas adjustment.
I've used adjustable gas blocks in the past including the Riflespeed one. The one thing I recommend is to set up the gas block with the rifle at a 45 degree as if you had a red dot at a 45 degree. I had set up my gas block with the rifle perfectly upright and it was perfect until I did some drills with the offset red dot and it would not hold open on the last round. I had to open up the gas block a few more clicks and it worked perfect and I didn't notice any recoil differences.
He’s saying if the rifle is canted at 45 degrees when shooting, as in shooting from odd positions, or when using an offset red dot, it changes the way the rifle reacts and it needs more gas. That’s also why for “duty” use, you go up another setting….much higher likelihood of firing in odd shooting positions in real world over punching paper at the range.
Ive been wanting a Riflespeed gas block for my 6mm ARC. And glad you mentioned yall can hard pin it as well. Now just need a price to do the package deal of purchasing the riflespeed and hardpin at the same time! Insert meme of FRY from Futurama saying "Shut up and take my money"🤣
chad is such a chad. and i love that you guys tune them to run full power 5.56. i can't stand the people who say "if it don't run steel it doesn't deserve brass" that is such a stupid thing to say - if a rifle runs the lowest powered 223 ammo, when you run full pressure 5.56 it's going to be stupidly overgassed. great to see builders going the right direction on that. and i like how this adjustable gas block has such a wide range of settings, and each click up or down is such a small increment so that you can really fine tune it. i've previously steered away from adjustable gas blocks because you find that one moment it's undergassed and the tiniest adjustment makes it overgassed. these small increments are nice letting you really dial it in perfectly. that thing is awesome
I love the Rifle Speed adj gas block, it makes all the others obsolete.The one concern I have is the controls are a little too easy to turn, so I added a second adjustment spring to the first and it was perfect..
You kno as someone that got chance to meet you guys and getting opportunity to truly understand what you guys are about/ beliefs. I have no interest in owning an AR. Ak all the way. But because its one you are building Chad. I will end up getting one as my one and only AR
Love the idea of the Riflespeed AGB. Don't like the price. That said, I'm buying one to try out. If I do that, the retail price of my "modern Mk12" will come to $3300. Luckily my fiancè has no idea just how much I spend on gun stuff lol.
I was very interested with this gb when it came out. Since then I stopped running an adjustable gb. I'm running a bcm upper, criterion/bcm headspaced bcg, cmt rail. With a v5a2/springco green.
So did you (iraqveteran8888) ever make the video showing us the max potential of a 7.62x39 ?? It's like you mentioned that you were going to be coming out with one for us 7.62x39 ppl don't leave us hanging brother and God bless
Yes, I have plans to offer R/Series AR10s (that will actually work out of the box) hopefully later this year. Will be getting other small frame cartridges up and running before that though. 6ARC and 300BLK namely.
Correct. That said, it is a LOT cheaper to drill up than it is to "drill it smaller" But even with a nicely gassed rifle, it is nice to have the ability to tweak the setting because of steel ammo, suppressors, etc.
Yep, I have a stag arms 300 blackout, wont shoot subs without my can. Finally called Stag Arms and they said they send their pistols out to run only supers. Got to get the hole opened up to .095.
Chad, are you doing anything to the barrel & bolt interface to increase accuracy of these rifles? I vaguely remember a video you did about accuratizing the bolt/barrell lock up and bedding to increase the accuracy of an AR.....
I want a block that I can shut the gas off almost entirely supressed. Thiso still seems to cycle the action even all the way down on light loads. I am guessing 300 blk subsonics its going to eject.
Chad! Awesome work! Just curious how this might affect dissipater rifles? Thanks for what you’re doing, if I hit the big bucks I’ll invest heavily. I love to see Georgia build Georgia!
You can absolutely use a Riflespeed on a Dissipator. You’d likely need to run a shorter plunger to provide more gas to the system due to the reduced dwell time; but it can made to work. Thanks!
Any gun smiths in in the comments I got an issue. I was cleaning my Glock 19 gen 4 and when I went to go put the slide back on the recoil spring pushed through the hole and is sticking out the front end of the gun
I like the close up and pictures , for visual aid . Very informative Only thing I would have done differently is have a full mag , instead of having to instal one round at a time 😅
Between the gas control itself and the wide variety of plungers available to fine tune, absolutely. The Riflespeed can be made to work perfectly with any cartridge, barrel length, gas system combo out there.
We set these rifles up for use with a standard carbine buffer and White standard power Sprinco spring. With the Riflespeed block, there is no need for heavy buffers to tame the system.
@@ArgosOrdnance Thank you for the feedback. I ask because I have a preference for the Guiselle super 42 buffer spring and run an H1 in all my ARs now, but I don't run suppressors at this time due to lack of tuning knowledge in regards to that process, and I think the rifle speed devices are slick as snot, one of my fellow ranger buddies put one on his personal weapon and running a Franklin binary trigger and using it for that reason. But I look forward to getting my hands on one of your builds
No need for buffers that are heavier than the carbine weight if the rifle is gassed correctly..Heavier buffers do not effect dwell time (bolt lock time) they only effect carrier velocity..The heavier the buffer the more perceived recoil..@@jw5297
How rigid is that adjuster? I feel like in adverse conditions it could get moved somewhat easily. Just my thoughts though, I run a poor build so I have no clue about this stuff 🤣
You can run two springs and it will be very difficult to turn. Probably overkill. I just use the one spring it comes with and I’ve never had mine adjust accidentally in many thousands of rounds of hard use in the field.
They’re MPI tested? Do you mean that they are “high pressure tested” and “magnetic particle inspected?” Further, the second is basically nullified by not doing the first. So if they’re not doing the high pressure testing, the magnetic particle inspection is a waste of money…
Do y'all plan on killing your own rails and receivers or going to use components by others in the manufacturing of your rifles?? Would be nice to have a company do turnkey assemble if the best components from selected manufacturers.....
