What competitions are you in now, that you're not winning the top grand-prize $$$ purse, because your trigger is the factor/hardware that is holding you back from first place?... Rhetorical question, easily seen, but that's the point. What do you shoot? Steel, animals, what? What's the speed or accuracy level that you need to have, where the trigger makes the difference? <<< specifically asking that one for a reason, well, several reasons, really. What's the max distance that you're shooting at and expecting to hit? You've left so much unanswered, and just dropped a basic question/statement in your leading post. Depending on what/how you shoot, my recommendation might be "No WAY - That Timney will SUCK for what you're trying to do..." However, again, depending on what/how you shoot, I might state that the Timney you're looking at is the vert best possible solution for you... Or, I might have a better recommendation, beyond the Timney... Need more info from you, man...

Check this guy out.

Liberty Doll smokes the Walk-Mart gun purchase myth, and one STUPID reporter...

Bill Clinton's "Assault Weapons Ban" sunsetted 15 years ago last week - it expired. Here's some info on it, for those that don't remember...

^^^ I can relate to that. This was the last one, and when she fucked up...

This goes back to failed American Foreign Policy, nothing more. Thank Bill Clinton for this specific current mess in the US. The shiit was building up for a couple years, we got involved in it, 6 months later we had the largest firefight in history after VietNam. That was 3 October, 1993. After that, we started "bringing them to the US" as kind of a "consolation" for being a member/citizen of the country that we had warlord-problems with, over humanitarian shiit. And, here we are... today...

I just posted something from him last night - about Mark Kelly. He makes sense, in a world that's senseless...

^^^ Exactly. Trust them not.

That's fucking EPIC, right there!!!...

^^^ That's exactly what the MSM is doing with this story. They're putting a "spin" on it that Colt never stated, at all. Colt was clear (now, a week later, when the real info comes out) over what the MSM stated was the reasons for "stopping production." Additionally, Colt never stated that they were "stopping production" for civilians - they have enough "civilian supply" for now, so they're shutting down future .civ production - for now, temporarily - and focusing that manufacturing effort towards the contracts that they've already got, both .mil and .leo. MSM spun it towards gun crime and mass shootings. That was never the case, and never a factor...

There's alot going on about Colt's decision - which is a temporary decision - versus how the MSM spun the hell out of it. This relevance in Colt's true verbiage on this is just more proof that you can't trust a single thing the MSM puts out...

Hmmm... and everybody tries to say that the gas tube length isn't an issue. "It'll work..." Short gas tubes don't work, unless you compromise everything else in the recoil system and gas system... These aren't Race Guns... If you had to switch to a weaker spring than the Sprinco Orange spring in your setup just to get it to operate properly - that's telling you that your gas port is still undersized...

You're in the middle of the range, and your gun isn't running right. Did you replace that gas tube yet? That's another contributing factor. It's WAY too short, and it's cutting your gas timing short. You can piece-meal this thing any way you want to, or you can listen to what I'm saying about your gun. Your recoil system is FINE, with the Sprinco Orange spring. It's not the problem, and the more you fuk with the recoil system, the more you're only putting the band-aid on the wrong cut. Your gas system is what needs the work here. That gas tube you have now has to go. You need proper gas timing, period. Gas tube length is what determines proper gas timing. You're in the middle of the range I gave you, at 0.093". I stated that you need something between 0.090" and 0.095". All barrels are different, unless they're specifically hand-made match barrels from the very same barrel maker (same person, not company). My factory barrel might run all my ammo fine with a 0.090" gas port, but your same-company barrel might need a 0.093" or a 0.095" to run the same ammo I'm running, in the same conditions... You might still need to drill that gas port up one size or two. Fuk it, live dangerous - you already have an adjustable gas block that doesn't help you at all, so use what you paid for - use the adjustable gas block... Drill your gas port to 0.100" and be done with it, then tune the gas block down. First thing you need to do is get that gas tube out of there, and get a gas tube that will at least come to the center of the cam pin cutout in your upper receiver. You can listen or not, but if your choice is to just keep changing parts, hoping something works, then I'll just sit back and watch what happens. I've given you the information that I know, so do with it what you want.

Here's some more insight into Colt's decision - bottom line, Don't Believe The Media Hype. It's, literally, Fake News. Check this out: https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/colt-ar-15-production-abc-news-report-bends-truth-to-fit-narrative/ How to Bend the News By Charles C. W. Cooke September 19, 2019 4:42 PM This, from ABC, is a nice example of a news organization deliberately bending the truth in order to advance a narrative that it wishes were true but is not: Venerable gun manufacturer Colt says it will stop producing the AR-15, among other rifles, for the consumer market in the wake of many recent mass shootings in which suspects used the weapon. Wow. Sounds dramatic. ABC continues: “At the end of the day, we believe it is good sense to follow consumer demand and to adjust as market dynamics change,” Dennis Veilleux, president and CEO of Colt, said in a statement. “Colt has been a stout supporter of the Second Amendment for over 180 years, remains so, and will continue to provide its customers with the finest quality firearms in the world.” So the story is that, although it still respects the Second Amendment, Colt is going to stop producing AR-15s after a series of mass shootings in which they were used. Right? Wrong. That’s actually not the story at all, as ABC notes further down: The company did not mention mass shootings in its statement about stopping production and instead blamed the indefinite pause in making the weapon on a “significant excess manufacturing capacity.” Ah. The phrasing in the above paragraph is remarkable. The reason that the company “did not mention mass shootings” is because mass shootings have nothing to do with its decision. And Colt didn’t “blame” its decision on anything, because its decision isn’t a problem for which “blame” needs to be assigned. As Colt has made clear, it believes that “there is adequate supply for modern sporting rifles for the foreseeable future,” and so it is temporarily shifting its production priorities in order to focus on the military side of its business. That’s it. That’s the whole story. Compare ABC’s first two paragraphs with those from the Associated Press’s story and you will see the problem: Gunmaker Colt says it is suspending its production of rifles for the civilian market including the popular AR-15. Colt’s chief executive officer, Dennis Veilleux, says it is not permanently ending production but believes there is already an adequate supply of sporting rifles on the market. He said in a statement Thursday the company will concentrate on fulfilling military and law enforcement contracts with its rifle manufacturing. Wasn’t so hard, was it?

Damn, that sucked to hear about, Cliff. Losing a great pet because somebody else is a shiithead just hurts worse. Sorry to hear about that.

Does it have a CARB E.O. number? No, wait, ... Trump is gonna fix all that bullshiit real quick...

Here's some more in "Saudi" https://www.foxnews.com/media/sheffield-united-owner-bin-laden-premier-league Saudi owner of English soccer team defends 'really good' Bin Laden family, says he would do business with them No joke...

Bin Laden was a Saudi National. Let that sink in. Saudi Arabia isn't really our friend, with what they've supported over the last multiple decades - but then, they support military installations for us during conflict in the MIddle East. Watch them close, trust them not.

OP, with the configuration your gun is in now, if you ran your adjustable gas block wide-open - and your gun didn't cycle - the gas port is too small. Don't know how to make it more direct than that.

But, you didn't mention a single thing about the gas port diameter, unless I completely missed it. I'll go back to what I previously told you: Here's what you need for a gas port diameter:

It shares that part with the AR15. It's not .308AR-specific. All AR safeties should work.

Absolutely fine, brother.

Let McGowen handle it, man. See if you need tobreak it all down, or if you can send them the assembled upper.

Ironically, today at work. This guy was obviously in the wrong neighborhood.

Yep, throw that 45-70 in my pile, Pete... Lemme know when to send the money, and how big my bill is... Good lookin' out, brother. I would have seen it sooner or later, but sooner is always better than Lesson 65b...
