I'm normally to busy flinching and shutting my eyes as the disorientating loud report scares the crap out of me. I swear, my gun goes off and I black out for a few moments. Normally I realize what is going on, pants are a mess, rifle hanging from a sling, thumb in my mouth, occasionally laying in a fetal position on the ground...
Back on topic. One of my buddies used steel bed to mate his upper and lower to a very tight fit, no lateral or front and back movement. Just a slight up and down, but not really noticeable. It was also on a target gun for NRA highpower stuff, and I think he used one of those 53.7lb steel lowers.
I've heard about this fix a lot of times. Currently I have no wiggle issues but just curious, does this O ring withstands the heat generated in the chamber that happens to be less than 1" appart from the front pivot? Do you have to change the O ring every time you use the rifle?
I belive its 99% impossible for the O ring to end in the FCG as its already outside of the receivers, but I think that after about 2 30 rounders you'll end up with a melt rubber mess at the front pivot :eek:
+1 0n the Accu Wedge. I have had the same one in one of my M4's for over 7000 rounds now, and it is still going strong. Also...there has been no deteriorzation of the rubber to get in the way of any of the trigger group. I check it every time, and see no reason to be concerned.
Tackl
So let me ask you this....
How much wiggle is too much wiggle? I realize that wiggle is acceptable, however, is there a point where it becomes unacceptable? Further, if a particular firearm has what would be deemed unacceptable slop, how does one remedy it short of replacing the upper or lower?
