  1. I've had a card stolen that was never used other than calling the bank to activate it. The bank explained that sometimes, very rarely, thieves get lucky and guess the right combination. Wild...
  2. I've been playing with a 24C and I really like being able to dial the pull weight in. Reset feels similar to a Geissele S3G with less overtravel. Just as crisp of a break if not more so too. The shoe took some getting used to but after having played with it a bit, I don't want to use the trigger without it as I feel like I have more control with it.
  3. Look at extractor spring tension. If you have an extra power extractor spring or an o-ring installed in one bolt but not the other, expect brass to fly further. Ideal ejection is 3-4 o'clock. Your M&P is exhibiting signs of being overgassed
  4. I'm proud to announce that Midwest PX is now a distributor for Hiperfire triggers! We have all three triggers in stock with free shipping! Above is one of our billet lowers built with a 24C trigger. All Hiperfire triggers feature user-adjustable pull weights and the 24C also has a unique trigger shoe that allows the user greater engagement surface area between the finger and trigger. The shoe placement is also customizable.

  5. Something to keep in mind with a factory 30rd PMAG is they actually take 31 rounds in order to guarantee loading against a closed bolt when full. However, loading a fully loaded mag against a closed bolt when the carbine is warm is still a fight. Anyhow, with PMAGs, to guarantee loading against a closed bolt, they pretty much have to take an extra round. If loading against a closed bolt is critical to you, do as every other serious student I have trained with does and download your mags. Here in Missouri, we do not have any capacity limitations (except when hunting) but I have yet to come across a student in class who keeps 30 rounds in their mags after the first day of class.
  6. Yep, all three will do just fine. If you want to go beyond that, 6.5 Grendel is the way to roll. But the logistics of 300BLK make it a pretty convincing sell for your application.
  7. Should be GTG for hogs inside 200 yards.
  8. PPU, PMC, and Federal M193 (the stuff made in Israel, not the stuff that comes out of Lake City) are what I put through my guns almost exclusively when it comes to factory loaded ammo.
  9. No, not 300BLK to do a DMR/SPR. 6.5 Grendel
  10. 300BLK is a good choice. Do you have a DMR/SPR-type build already? That's another one that can be pretty fun if you have the room to let it stretch.
  11. Psh, these are AR15s we're talking about...there's no changing minds. Just the next build!
  12. MidwestPX replied to Sht's topic in Ranges & Gun Shops
    Lowers have to be sent to an FFL.
  13. Indefinitely, for now. Might change in the future, might not.
  14. These will start popping up in the stores that stock our mags. Some are headed to Shore Shot today.
  15. The only trigger it's truly comparable to with Geissele is the S3G as everything else Geissele makes is a two stage trigger. Reset of the Hiperfire feels a little longer but the break is as crisp if not crisper. Both have zero creep and very constant pull weights. The S3G might have a little more overtravel than the Hiperfire too. What I like about the Hiperfire is the ability to swap out the toggle springs and position the shoe on the trigger to have varying pull weights.
  16. http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?products_id=777 They're here and finally ready for sale! I can be extremely demanding of my suppliers and have rejected two batches of lower receivers because they weren't good enough to be sold under the Midwest PX brand. This third batch hit it out of the park though. I am very pleased with these feature-packed lowers that I can bring to market for almost half the price of the lowers I was benchmarking them against. Here's a full list of specs:
  17. This rifle is headed out today for professional photography by a well-known industry photog (not Stickman if anyone's wondering). Upper: Centurion Arms 16" hammer forged barrel Midwest PX Enhanced BCG Midwest PX forged upper 12" Fortis REV Rainier Arms Raptor charging handle Magpul MBUS Pro front and rear sights Trijicon SRS QD Lower: Midwest PX Premium billet lower (I have these, just haven't put them up yet due to lack of good pictures...these are those lowers I've been talking about putting up for $120) Midwest PX LTG LPK Hiperfire 24C (the more I use it, the more I like it) Magpul UBR Magpul MOE+ grip The goal of this build was to put together a capable, feature-rich, but very clean and aesthetically-pleasing/simple carbine. More shots of the lower Apologies for the closeup pics being done without cleaning up the lower at all. The finish on the lower is in fact uniform and the dark spots you see are excess oil.
  18. They've taken a ton of heat over it. During SHOT, I overhead comments about it in their booth while I was looking at their new stuff. It's too bad since their carbon fiber handguard looks like a winner but their brand is so tarnished, sales will undoubtedly suffer. The promotional emails I got had the steepest discounts of all vendors that I either talked to or got emails from. But none of my dealer friends nor I bit.

    I'd heard you can also trade labor for canned goods even if you aren't a member. I've been meaning to look into this.
  20. Logic would suggest sending just the upper would be easier and cheaper. Company policy, however, may say since it left as a rifle, it has to be serviced as a rifle. S&W will let you know what needs to be done.
  21. That's what I said when I saw the pic.
  22. I'll be picking up KVP and Griffin Armament this month in addition to a bunch of other stuff. How long of a muzzle device are you looking for? And man, Vegas is chewing me up and spitting me out each day. I'm walking a solid 10-12 miles a day, running around meeting vendors and key contacts. I have done zero truly leisure activities while I've been here. Oh well, at least it's around guns 'n stuff.
