Was this from the latest FFT batch? What trigger housing do you have? Plastic or the older aluminum? He really said, "oh well"?

That Wilton vice is legit.

Their bolt release looks interesting. I like the loading port job too. I wish my gunsmith did mine like that. I wanted it conservative but he was a bit too much so. Still looks good though.

There goes the NP3 plating.

Was this out of the latest FFT batch? I hope not. ?

That stinks. I hope you get it sorted out soon. Keep us posted. Did Todd have any reaction to the fact that something needed trimming? Do you have an OEM trigger housing? If so is it plastic or the older aluminum?

You used a utility knife to trim the aluminum on the stock?

That's interesting. Hopefully, somebody will chime in and inform us of the secret recipe.

Ok, cool. Thanks, I just wanted to double check for future reference.

SD, just to clarify in a previous post I thing you mentioned 16mm. It seems 8mm would be a little small.

Thanks SD! That's excellent.

I'm partial to Geissele for 2 stage but there are other quality options out there.

Yes, I know but unfortunately I don't have my M4 in hand right now. It's getting some work done. LOL

Yeah, it appears that the link is now a no go. It was working when I checked it out months ago.

Oddly, it was here:

I found a chart somewhere online. I can't remember where. I'll try to dig it up and post the link when I find it.

Ok thanks again sir! I have a 11703 and I believe (based on the serial number) it was manufactured in 2018. So, I guess it's safe to say I have the 3 position tube. I always thought I did but I started to second guess myself recently. Being that I don't have the shotty on hand I couldn't simply take a look.

Thanks SD. How did you drive that "center" pin out of the stock. I'm assuming it retains the button and spring. Does the hole go clear through to the other side?

I'm under the impression that all the newer models come with the 3 position except for the fixed c stocks? A. I'm wondering if I'm correct. B. When did they start including them 2015/2016 etc?

Do all models produced in the last few years come with the 3 position tube unless it's a fixed/pinned c stock model? I know way back this wasn't the case a couple models came with out. What was the cutoff year when they began to come with the 3 pos?

SD, did you send in all the metal stock parts? I would imagine not the spring but pins, tiny washers etc? I recall you saying that you had to source different size screws for the but pad.

Just found these. They look awesome. I wish they had a rear sight offering. These are like Trijicon HD's. https://www.xssights.com/Products.aspx?CAT=13438

TY sir. As soon as Wright gets my M4 back to me the install will happen. They have had her for slightly over 13 weeks now. Then if I can just get my paint guy to get my CC tube back to me I'll be good. He painted it a "stainless" cerakote and it looks exactly CC's H2O match which is what I gave him. I could hardly tell the difference and he barely could either. He said he might try a satin aluminum but I haven't heard back from him in a bit. I should have sent it to your guy.

Thank you sir. I would imaging you want to center the sight post the best you can before it's snugged. It seems like that takes the guess work out of the front sight and I would assume the rear is all windage.

The scratch doesn't bother me. I'm more concerned with the little chip on the edge of the pin hole. It's suppose to be new.
