  1. I have this lifter from J-Kenny.  After I installed it, I had lots of failure to feeds.  Its hard to explain what would happen but the shell would smashed between the latch and the inner receiver.  I would need to reach in from the ejector port and dig out the shell with my finger.  I was thinking about maybe polishing it up it bit, but I haven't had the time to and ammo is expensive these days so I stopped shooting for a while. 

    I ended up just polishing the original shell latch and haven't had any problems.

  2. So bring back this topic again.  I had a chance to visit the Briley booth and hold one of their M4 shotguns.  Then I remembered about the loading port I did with them.

    What I found out was they did have a beveled edge while the one they did for me did not have one.  While taking the rep there, he told me all their shotguns had beveled edges and not sure why mine didn't have one.  I'm going to write to their customer service to find out what is going on.

    What are you exhibiting?  I'll be there with a booth, but this year I'm thinking about scaling back the booth, so I can spend time seeing the show, rather than managing the booth.

    I'll be at the Holosun booth.  Yea the show is huge, love all the innovation going on each year.

    Hey Fanboy,

    It's been a few months since you've posted and I'm wondering if you've had the chance to run your gun with the Briley port-opening job.  Do you like it?  I'm thinking about using their services as well.

    Overall I think its pretty good.  It definitely makes double or quad loads much faster and easier.  I recently just got a field stock so now I'm able to practice weak hand loads.

    I think it was worth it.  If you send yours in, I'll be interested to see if it comes out the same.

  5. Hello:

    I just wanted to check if anyone here had any experience with Taran Tactical Reduced Power Spring for an M4?  I'm thinking this might cause feeding issues.  I was thinking about getting one, but then I remember I had issues with their lighten trigger and hammer spring.  

    Thanks!

    Euro Optic is back currently ordered.  I ordered one some months ago and it took about 6 weeks(?) for them to notify me via email that they were back in-stock.  By that time I had purchased one from a forum member on this site.  Might be worth ordering one from them while you continue to search.  At $122.50 I recall it being the best price I could find.

    Thanks, I put my email on the notification list so hopefully when it comes in I'll be around to purchase one.

    Can you still order it if its backordered?

  7. So I got a response from Briley, this what they said below and they need to update their website.

    "Subsequently we greatly reduced the bevel on the inside edges of the port.  While it allowed the shooter easier access to the port, it reduced the amount of control on the cartridge during insertion to the magazine.  Our sponsored shooters unanimously agreed that the way we do it now is preferable and with adequate practice it is not a limitation on the speed of reloading."

    So it seems like I'm good to go.
