  1. We have given you leads for the last two years. Each time we find you a super-rare NIB 1014 you say it is too expensive, or the serial number is not low enough. Gee whiz, just give up.

  2. Very common question. Carrier Comp is the highest quality and many of us do wait it out.

     

    The steel-verse-Ti debate will never end. Titanium is lighter and corrosion proof; however there is very little difference. All the tubes out there are high quality with the some folks reporting issues with DMW. And the factory tube is hard to make 922® compliant.

  3. Do they affect the trigger pull or anything else at all?

     

    Has anyone ever even been convicted of 922r violations? lol

     

    The Geissele hammers are at least as good as factory.

     

    Consensus is that no one has been convicted of a stand-alone 922® violation. However it has reportedly been used for an add-on charge to something serious i.e. thru the book at them.

  4. FFT lists their steel tube as 10.3 ounces and their Ti tube as 5.4 ounces. Debate rages on, but here is the low-down.

     

    Screw-on extensions are the worst. They're the heaviest, introduce a lip that shells can hang up on, and hard to be compliant.

     

    Full length steel tubes are a good choice.

     

    Full length titanium tubes are lightweight and corrosion resistant. The benefits here are minimal, but benefits nonetheless.

  5. is the brand or type of lube/cleaner real that important?

     

    In our last lube thread folks were reporting good results with everything from motor oil to grease. I'm starting to think it isn't real important.
