That muzzle device is going to blind an intruder! 😂
Insert Major Payne quote here………….
Great job explaining gentlemen. We also went with a CMMG barrel and bolt. I ordered a complete upper. All you need is their bolt and barrel. I went with the Aero EPC lower and had to remove the ejector as it was not allowing up to close the upper. I don't believe you will have this issue if you go with M4E1. However it is a pain to put the Glock mags in and I most likely will replace the Aero lower (EPC) with the M4E1. I did go with Kynshot hydraulic buffer and Vltor extended buffer tube and Tubbs springs. The gun shoots so smooth. It's like shooting a 22. I have a couple hundred rounds trough it and it has yet to fail to fire.
Love my banshee and train with it as my HD gun. What light mount is that?
I'm still watching the video, but I'm impatient…does he say how much it weighs total?
Insert popular opinion here
I've heard that a kynshot buffer or A5 buffer reduces recoil even more. The CMMG bolt and barrel is the GOAT.
Do you have to use a buffer and buffer spring?
You have to use a CMMG radial delayed blowback barrel with their bolt. The barrel has the complementary cuts to the locking lugs on the bolt. That’s what allows for radial delay.
I’m in complete agreement with you in regards to 9 mm PCC for home defense.
I’m not wild about using a 5.56 mag that’s been retrofitted for 9mm, not unless it has an unmistakable visual and tactile differentiation from standard mags.
However, I’d still rather have a dedicated 9mm mag, as I could fit more of them on a belt/chest rig/carrier.
207st!
Outstanding Joe, Is the buffer spring a carbine and buffer is a 3.0. Thank you for a very detailed video. wizard, wizard, jimithy.
Good afternoon Joe
Olights are the big gay, change my mind.
Hahaha…love the ending! Great video
Great build, love all the hard work you've put into it.
