Mystery Part in my AR10?

 Gonna have to do some more trigger work on it. Somebody, before me, took a little too much of the sear. It shoots on the trigger pull stroke, and trigger release stroke. Sometimes.. Because the disconnector, disconnects, before the sear has control of the hammer. I am most likely going to get a match trigger anyway.

not necessarily from someone's faulty work as I've had this happen on a new out of the box S&W MP15, and it also occurred with a BushMaster Varminter I picked up a while back... it was explained to me by 2 different gunsmiths that it was all in my trigger stroke causing it to double up... it may have happened to me yet after I switched out the S&W to a Timney trigger, can't remember...

with mine it happened so fast unless you were listening closely, you weren't sure if it was one or 2 shots went off, and the shots printed closely on the target... so all in all I guess there was no serious drawbacks...

That still didn't answer my question, Ben...

Keep in mind - I'm not demanding information from you - you don't "owe" me an answer.  But your statement that the Tubb CWS does nothing for the recoil impulse is why I posed the question that I did - when it directly impacts/affects the recoil impulse.

My first .458 SOCOM was a Rock River that a guy bought for his wife to hunt with.  Turned out it kicked too much for her so he sold it.  I found one of these in it.  The real problem with that rifle is the A2 buttstock has sharp edges on the back that dig into your shoulder.  I shot the rifle with and without it and it did nothing at all for recoil.

It definitely does affect the recoil impulse. 

Reply, don't reply, either way is good with me, but the board could benefit from your honest answer.

Hey look brother, I don't want to get into a spitting match.  Let's just say you're right and move on.  All I know is my shoulder hurt with and without it.

Yeah but what weights were in the carrier weight body when you used it? There isn't much info like that out there so anything you could add may benifit other board members.

Hell, I don't either - I was just asking a question, based on what you posted.  No pissing match here, not in the least - just want to make sure the information is accurate.  You stated is made no difference, so I want to know the config on it.  With just the shell, and zero inserts, you'll never feel much of a difference.  Steel insert, a little difference, tungsten insert,  bigger difference.

I only want to know the config of you Tubb CWS, since you felt no difference, with or without.

No spitting match whatsoever, man...

heh,,,,maybe I should be making them and selling cheap for 308ar members. It'll at least keep my lathe busy. :)

you need to get a Gen3 carrier insert from LAW Tactical and figure out a way to make those heavier too. People can't get the inserts to swap uppers on their folding lowers.

I have a folding lower that I won't swap uppers on because I have to disassemble the carrier every time. I need a different insert for each upper.

But how heavy can you go without messing up the cycling. I've found what wen I made my heavy buffer that 12oz was just enough to make it unreliable. Dropped it to 11.2 oz and everything worked nicely.

Send me one of those inserts and let me see what I can come up with.
