HMLA-167 Warrior

Having been to war(s), this ----^ is spot on. And in spite of the second paragraph's truth, Aimpoint still sits on top of mine.

Maybe factories should all just use Cosmoline. Then everyone would HAVE to clean their weapons before firing them. They would also get to know every nook and cranny of their weapons thoroughly while in that cleaning process. Oh, wait... I'm sure there would be a number of people who still wouldn't clean it first. Never mind.

+1 to that

In the past there were a few options (Geissele and FFT that I am aware of) to buy just a US made M4 hammer. My google-foo may be off, but I can only find trigger packages including the trigger, disconnecter, and hammer. Does anyone know of anywhere that still sells just the hammer?

So, that probably means that I can't post that these comments -----v really make Toaster seem like an asshat then huh?

It will. Mine have in the past and it was well worth the wait.

If could add a wish list for them it would include: charging handle just like in the old days. hammer since Geissele is no longer producing them (IIRC Geissele got it from Kip but don't quote me on that) and I don't care for the FFT version.

I think airing private personal information about another party on the internet is inappropriate and would advise you to kindly edit your post. It isn't actually that difficult to find out what is going on with them by simply emailing them directly through the carriercomp website. If anyone is interested they can send an email and then wait patiently for the response. It will come, perhaps not as quickly as one may expect but it will come nonetheless. At least my reply did. And, yeah, I'm still excited to get the mag tube... whenever they can make it.

I thought I read somewhere here on the forums that the OEM screws are close to but not quite the same as #8-40s. Any problems to be anticipated from the not quite perfect fit?

Have you shot it yet?

I may have missed it here in the thread somewhere and if so, please forgive me. Just received my mount and was going to install it but was wondering if there are any particular torque specs for the screws and any particular pattern for tightening recommended - I'm assuming star pattern like an automotive wheel but, hey, I'm no engineer nor do I play one on the internet and there were no instructions in the package. On a side note, you have some design and execution skills - just saying. This mount is NOT, repeat NOT, done justice by the pictures in this thread. You have to get it in your hands to really understand just how well this is designed and made. Impressive.

I think we need to somehow talk Geissele into another run of hammers.

Crap. I knew that was going to be the answer but I was getting up all my false hopes for one mount with both options.

So, if I'm understanding this correctly, one mount will accommodate either the RMR or Aimpoint?

IMO you won't go wrong with any of your above options.
