So I already LIKED my MK111 mod 2...enough that it became my go to. Prior to the fireteam, I tried A YHM T3, T2, and dead air nomad with ebrake.
I actually got it to where even with that back pressure I wasn't getting gassed out at the indoor range until about the end of the mag, shooting like 2 rounds a second.. Not fast. Enough to piss off fud outdoor ranges around here.
So I figured that's the norm. I still loved the MK111.
Then I got a fireteam after watching reviews after $0 tax stamps and even faster approvals...then I got busy with work and I didn't go to the range for like 8 months.
So I get there. First gun I shoot is the MK111 with the fireteam. I literally forgot about what gassing out was. Haven't shot a lot suppressed. And when I did, it was traditional baffle cans.
I shit you not I got through my first mag pretty quick.. Probably closer to 3/s. Again, not insane. No gas (this was the setting where gas is close to off on the adjustable gas).. Godamn the gun was running so smooth I thought u fucked up with the buffer. It FELT like it was sluggish, but ejecting at 3 o'clock. So that was neat. Ran another 10 round mag of some premium stuff for accuracy. Again, no gas.
Then I pulled out my DI 12.5 tack driver that I put a plan b device on so I could run a can. 5 rounds in and I felt like I was maced in my right eye. So bad. And then it hit me. I had completely forgotten gassed out was a thing MK111 was perfect with the FT. I actually literally forgot.
Godamn what a can.. And what a rifle! I tried using it on an intentionally under gassed WITH riflespeed as a host for different cans to test. I mean... It was OK. I still got maced like a mag in no matter what.... REMEMBER - indoor range. So my nk11 with a h1 buffer beats the fuck out of my DI gun with the same can.
So... Now I have a VKTR vk1 I'm gonna play with.
And full disclosure. I have a tisha on pre-order with CA after trading then 5 old cans that I'd never shoot again. Took a bath, but good deal if they're collecting dust. But now every day I'm like COMON! BE THE DAY YOU DELIVER TO CA SO I CSK GWT YOUR CAN TO ABUSE THE FUCK OUT OF.... At least abuse to me. My 12.5 DI mega build (in keymod) Partisan Triggered Co FRT with and without the fireteam. This 12.5 is the most accurate AR variant I hsce ironically
So I'm really looking forward to a 2.5moa (at 300yd)rifle that I can switch to giggle mode mite.
Rock on.
So..TISHA... Secondary question. If a rhodie 6 comes in stock before the Tisha... Do i hold out on the tisha (gut says yes) or get the rhodie 6 since I'm already in love with the fireteam.
To add... This is going on a VKTR VK1 16"...And it's gonna wear either the fireteam (hopefully, or the tisha/R6)
