  1. I use mostly 45 degree FIRE selectors on the AR platforms. I don't are for the ambidextrous part of this unit. I'd be happy with just a strong hand thumb side lever. My hope would be the lever having the same tactile feel of the AR15 selectors to provide a cross platform standard of use.

    I agree this would be a good idea. I shoot a lot of AR platform style guns and think this type of safety would feel automatic.

  2. I heated mine with my wife's hair dryer.

     

    Got the receiver up to about 180 degrees and the magazine started turning by hand.

     

    Had to apply heat a few times to keep it up around that temp or it would get tight.

     

    Seems like there are a million threads there when you start trying to screw it off.

     

    I would rather heat the receiver than the mag tube.

     

    I also used wife's hair dryer. Took about 4 or 5 min. and unscrewed with just a little bit of muscle. It had blue Loctite.

  3. I did my M4 like this one with a $5 iron from Harbor freight. I had to buff the high points after I was done because it was cutting into my hand. I used a Dremel with a wire wheel. Not only does it look good, but function is great.
