Yeah... the 14.5 middy is a little more finnicky.

I thought it was a 14.5 with the perm attached A2X? Guess I gotta re-read the article

The EAG Tactical carbine/upper offered by BCM has a 14.5 with a permed A2X. Filthy 14 was a 16" with a A2.

Or you could just order something from BCM. They'll send you a new copy of the article every time.

I was going to say the same thing.

BTW I have the 14.5 mid and I keep hearing they are "finnicky." I have never had a problem. What's the deal?

They don't run well with low powered ammo or heavier buffers. They still run, but you can get some failures to lockback on an empty mag, etc.

same here, what is the problem? i've taken it through a couple of classes and put alot of rounds through it. with no problems as of yet, except for the bad lever which i dumped and it runs like a champ.

FYI: Talking with Pat this weekend, Filthy 14 has over 43,000 rounds on it and still shoots 1.5 inch groups at 50 yards. It will be rebuilt.

Hell yeah, over! By 5000+ rounds....!

I was at the Gadsden Carbine 2 class, last week. #70 and #77 have 12k and about 9k on them, respectively, and they SMELL. There are other T&E guns for EAG student use, with what lot of folks would erroneously think of as a blasphemous amounts of rounds sent downrange without a single cleaning. Bear in mind, Filthy 14 just happens to be the one with the most.

There were 14 soldiers at the class I just attended. I about dropped a deuce in my shorts laughing at the exclaimations of shock and horror when Pat pulled the BCG out of #70 to show them. Looked like it had wind-drifted dunes of wet, black sand on it....

I just want to say that is crazy. At .25cents a round that is almost $10,000 of ammo.(I'm guessing they did not shoot wolf in this gun) I wish they had taken pics when they cleaned it or when the bolt broke. I'd also love to see what an exstractor looks like after 13k rounds.
