@Beekeeper barrel doesn't fit in the upper.
Hey, my rifle only weighs 12, excuse you
No shit, it's probably a commercial spec upper
Which means, it doesn't have a spec
Milspec aero upper but ok.
Clearly something was off
Why would you need to torch anything though. I'm failing to see this
Theres no reason to torch anything when installing a barrel to an upper
fuck it man
You know what
This is apparently normal for this. There are plenty of forum posts about it. And it worked.
@Red Korvo You do you
That's not normal at all
I assure you
@Cataclysmo if I'm a moron for doing this than so is everyone who suggested it.
yes they are retarded
Wait... What's the caliber marking on your barrel @Red Korvo
Post it please
>his parts manufacturers didn’t buy the official specs
It's Aero and Faxon ffs.
what was the caliber of the barrel to the upper
5.56 NATO.
If that's for real, then you need to send back either your upper or your barrel
At this point probably both
Out of warranty due to fire damage
"Heavy full auto use - Not Covered"
ATF shows up to this guy's door
You didn't deburr the big burr you set up the first time
And now you're bottomed out on it
It could also be too much grease
Bruh it fit with the big torch I'm gtg.
Can't be, not a blind hole
It's pretty hard to have too much lube, easy to have too much grease
I'm not worried about the excessive heat, you didn't get that thing to 1000F
Did it ruin the heat treat on the upper? Maybe. Will it fail in use? Unlikely
Could still fuck up the heat treat
zenit furniture isnt really super heavy
Galil + LPVO + zenit is fuckin hefty though i'll tell ya hwat
galils are heavy as are lpvos
Milled is just heavy
