Burr in the safety detent channel, Wilsom Combat Billet small frame


Recommended Posts

Posted

Okay, I've been slowly piecing my lower together, but I have a burr in the small channel the detent and spring slide in. Yes, its a manufacturing defect, but I don't want to send it back, just to get jacked around and be on somebody else's covid schedule... I wasn't expecting this? but I should have been right?? LOL

It's the factory lower kit, all factory parts, but the detent will NOT engage the safety, and there is a visible ring, thanks Wilson Combat, after all the water I carry for you???

Shoot them an e-mail with pics, then tell them "I just wanted to let y'all know -- I'll fix it myself, but others may not have the ability."

They'll probably send you a hat or something.

Well its all together except for the trigger, it was a pain, and the ammo came today! I attempted to take the trigger out of my son's beater, but would have had to take off the pistol grip which has  a funky looking bolt jammed into it?? LOL my drop in shipped today, a tracking number at least, finally!

I had the trigger all apart, but it would not leave that lower because of the safety! dang it!

First trip to the range this morning, had Wilson's 40 coil buffer spring in, it ejects, well, I had 1 FTE, and is laying them all back around 4:00 o'clock... thinking to much azz for my gazz, I'm gonna put the stock Wilson spring in it, I'm sure that will help..

Not a single round locked the bolt back, shooting a single round in the magazine sighting in.

I've been shooting the 125 gr Hornady Full Metal Jacket load to start, I'm around 50 yds, and this dang thing wants to shoot!

Again to remind everyone, this is the 300 HAM'R by Wilson Combat, not the 300 Blackout... I'll be doing my homework in the 300 Black forum.
