Looking forward to seeing how yours operates. I just got the tracking number for my RedX barrel and upper receiver. If yours works favorably, i'll buy a pistol op-rod for my AA kit.

just curious instead for tiging it up why not plug and re-drill? I ask cuz that's what I'd have doneComment

Well guys, take a look at this.
Barrel is 0.040" out of spec, causing a gap which allows the op rod to accelerate into the carrier and smash it up. Spec is .015-0.25" I checked this but must have either measured it wrong, or missed it."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

I thought you checked the gap with feeler gauges.Comment

I did. Unfortunately I can't measure the old rod again because its destroyed.Originally posted by GAP View Post"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

What sucks is now you have to relocate the gas port AND turn that shoulder .04". My barrel should arrive Monday.Comment

Yes, I misread his post. I'm honestly surprised that a +.015" tolerance stack is enough to batter the carrier like that.Originally posted by phaux View Post
I wonder what it'd run like with an appropriately sized gas port.Comment

red x should just supply a new barrelComment

I don't think CJ wants to wait 1-2months for another batch of barrels to be made which may be wrong too.Originally posted by gat0r View PostComment

Pretty much exactly the theory I had speculated. Not the part I suspected but same result none the less.Originally posted by CJ View PostWell guys, take a look at this.
