    The new style TTI charging handle is very nice and definitely locks into place. I also just received the Arms Unlimited charging handle and it doesn’t over insert and is nice as well. 
     

    I had the FFT 1/2” charging handle and it would over insert and it put a very small rub mark on my Cerakote finish so it was sold off.

    I have a FFT 1/2 that doesn't over insert at all.My M4 has a 2014 date code though.The gentleman that I,purchased it from said that it would over insert on his M4 but perfect on mine.

    I believe Benelli changed the handles locking depth on newer M4's.I could be wrong.

    I had issues using the FFT Wolff Spring in my 7 round mag tube, even after polishing the tube it still would not launch shells up the ramp and was causing the shells to not exit the tube fast enough and up the carrier far enough that the carrier would hang up.  It was frustrating as hell, wasted a bunch of shells trying to trouble shoot the issue.  I switched to a Carrier Comp Spring and that completely fixed the issue.  Hundreds of shells later and my M4 is running like well.... an Italian made Shotgun. 

    Also of note was that the Carrier Comp Spring is a good bit longer than the factory spring as well as the FFT Spring.  The only way I can get 7 rounds in my 7 round tube is to use true 59mm (2-3/4") shells.  Most overseas stuff is too long so you will have to settle for 6 in the tube.  But I talked to Marcy over at Carrier Comp and they mentioned that you can trim up to 5 coils off their spring and still have a spring that is superior to the factory spring.  So just keep that in mind, I ended up leaving mine stock and just noted that if I shoot Federal 00 2-3/4" shells than I can get 7 in the tube, if I run others like Fiocchi, Wolf, etc... then I can get 6. 

    But in my opinion the Carrier Comp Spring is superior to the factory and to the FFT Spring that they have Wolff create for them. 

    Thanks for sharing your experience with different magazine springs.The issue that I am having is finding the CC springs in stock.

    I have the Brileys carbon mag tube and spoke with them about some springs that they have in stock but they couldn't confirm the manufacturer of those springs.They did confirm that their spring had to be cut by the end user though.

    Hello everyone 

    I am having an issue installing the FFT bolt release.This bolt release is hitting the shell lifter once I have it all reinstalled.So when its supposed to lift my rounds the lifter gets stuck and it will break free when I push the lifter up with little effort.

    I have the spring installed in the same place that the factory spring was placed on the factory bolt release.It's been broken it down and reinstalled several times and still no luck.

    Thanks

    I paid him $399 for that stock on 1/17/20 and it shipped that day.  Is $499 or $599 crazy now......not in my opinion. GB had them for over $800.

    I prepared so well for Hillary that I had three lifetime's quanity of 9mm that I got for an average of .12 cents. Sold all the extra last year through my local gun store for 45-80 cents a round.  He had ammo to sell (when nobody else did) and made customers happy while I paid him a 10% commission. It's not greedy, just buying low and selling high.

     

     

    The last pre order for the stock was $399.I understand a $50 or $100 markup, but $200?The gun community is 1 of the few hobby communities that I am apart of that wants a lot of support but, when it's time to sell we will stick it to each other and say the market will support it.I will admit that I am late to the party on this 1, so I can't be upset that all the liquor and women are gone.
