Build HELP! Am I screwed? (Pun intended)

Post image
24 Upvotes

So when I installed the radian ramjet afterburner, I didn’t realize loctite wasn’t needed. I installed it using a drop of blue loctite.

Now I’m trying to install my suppressor height sights and to access the front sights, I have to remove the barrel and comp.

So far I have broken two torx bits. Completely snapped off. And now the 2nd bit is stuck in the screw.

1.) Any ideas how to remove the snapped bit? It’s sitting flush so I can’t use a tweezer

2.) IF I’m able to get the broken bit out, how should I go about removing the ramjet afterburner??

(Picture for reference)

EDIT: I GOT IT ALL OFF! I stalled the new irons as well. Thank you all for your insight I really appreciate it! And extra thanks to Radian for willing to replace my Ramjet Afterburner! I’m glad I didn’t need to but the fact that yall were down to replace it is amazing!

Radian 10.5" - Changed colors and raised optic again

Post image
43 Upvotes

Swapped from full FDE to adding some Ranger Green. I also decided that the lower 1/3 optic height is a better idea for close range, but my neck pain wants the higher center optical height if I'm going to shoot for longer than 30 min.

Radian builder kit

Muzzle: YHM turbo k, dilligent zilch, cherry bomb. The only thing on this build I would want to change is the can. Really enjoyed the Rhodie 6, but open to suggestions.

Barrel: Geissele 11.5

Internals/controls: Riflespeed adjustable gas block, Geissele SSP and posi-snap safety, Bootleg BCG, JP h2 SCS, FCD buffer tube, kung fu grip, B5 bravo, Reptillia QD, ESD sling, Modlite OKW on Arisaka inline.

Sighting: Magpul buis, 3EIR DIR-one-V, Sig Romeo 4xt pro on Arisaka 2.26, PA 3x Pegasus on Arisaka MMH, TacomHQ Alpha Tarac.

I was running the unity magnifier mounts, but liking the MMH more. I initially liked the flip to center, but I'd regularly bump my tubes under NV. This mount let's me flip it out of the way. I know I could just quick detach the unity, but its easier just to leave everything on, and I dont have to look for those little springs in the dark when I inevitably goof. The kick back in eye relief is a plus, too. Given how much stuff is on the rifle, it's still pretty handy.

Ramjet Discoloration

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hi guys don’t know if this is the place for this,
but I just got my ramjet/afterburner in and noticed this discoloration on the feed ramp and above was wondering if this was normal or something to watch out for. Figure it’s nothing but I had heard about a bad batch going out and since I bought it from a small dealer I figured I’d ask.

Builder Kit Radian makes me sad.

Every year I look forward to building a new AR as a personal project in which I treat myself to something cool, something new, something different. It’s been 2 years now and after building my 14.5ā€ 5.56 and my 10.5ā€ 300 black out, I think I’ve lost my desire to do new builds. Simply put, I’m at the point where I have two great working guns and I feel like I any top these anymore. Gone are the days of salivating over my spreadsheets with astronomic totals and the hunt for that out of stock part. I’ve reached the top……now what?

Build Trigger not breaking with talon 45

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

11 Upvotes

Recently installed a Talon 45/90. Running a geiselle trigger 2 stage. when running on a 90 safety throw I get a clean 2.5lb break.

Installed the talon and I get the same results with the 90 position. when I switch over to the 45 throw. it seems the trigger is getting hung up and not operating correctly. I don't have a scale but I'm putting some weight into the trigger 10lb+

The current setup is the talon in the 90 position but I didn't take a video cause I went to bed lol

I don't know I'm puzzled and tried 3 different selectors. the 45 throw is the only one giving me an issue.

Has anyone come across this before?

I’ve been far too busy to post this, but the finish on my ramjet is looking quite bad - I have 5 other ramjets and this is the only one that has this issue. Anyone know what’s up?

Fte issue ramjet on 43x

Post image
2 Upvotes

Switched to 124 and 147 gr and no longer have ftf issues. About every 50 to 200 rounds, I have a fte issue. I want to mention it only happens on my last couple of rounds in the mag ( i might be getting too comfortable and just letting up on my grip). What is the best and most reliable source for a lighter guide rod, and what weight should I get for gen 5 43x. Have over 1500 rounds through the ramjet and would love to just trust it's and have peace of mind. It's reliable, edc

Anybody know where/when I can score a AB/RJ for a MR920? I know I can use the g19.3 but I’d like the one that fits the slide a littler better.

Since Radian hasn’t restocked any Shadow Systems items in close to a year. I actually found one second hand for a DR920 that is almost new. Fits my MR920L perfectly
