Lucky you, to have a threaded cap that is a perfect fit…!!
Murphy was obviously busy, somewhere else…
I’ve gotta do an end cap for mine yet, it has a dull hollow thunking noise, with the front end open…
I’ll try for the smallest opening, but i think it will have to be reasonabley large, as the gells will have travelled a bit and spread, by the time it reaches the end.
After the Mac 10 arrived I slobbered over the box for a couple of seconds before ripping it out.
Looking at that outer barrel kind of got the brain gears turning… just by fluke I dug out an old Kriss Vector flash hider, the ones that friction fit over the nylon outer barrel. Perfect tight friction fit over the thread.
So this is the Mac 10 suppressor issue #2… pretty solid fit and I don’t have to tap any holes, just paint. Shorter than it should be but it’ll do for now.
the charging handle is supposed to prime only. Mine does.
Good ole medinchina QC…report it, via email, so it has a history if it blows.
I think these have a 3 mth warranty.
yeah, full auto only…dummy switch is correct.
It does fold out,… you just need to use a bit of force, to break it first time.
I was reluctant, until i watched a review, where the guy pulled it down.
Then , press the black button underneath to extend / retract / remove the stock.
Could you please post a photo, with the suppressor off…?
I’m curious to see exactly how it goes on.
It just friction fits over the barrel, and thread…?
And stays on firmly…?
Also, any spare thread on circular nut assemblies like you showed before.?
I’d buy one from you, if you do…
That smaller bit poking out is the Vector flash hider and yes it’s a tight fit over the thread. Not going anywhere. I still have to wet set it in there properly with resin but I’ll call this proof of concept. No doubt I’ll be doing an Issue #3 down the track to acheive a better length anyway. This one’s a little short for my taste.
I see what you mean about the outer barrel… super thin and pretty flimsy just like the VZ61.
Considering where this came from (TT) and considering they’re out of stock of these MAC10s already, there’d be no point making it a warranty issue… I’ll be voiding that when I tear this down tomorrow to look into the mag priming anyway.
If it proves to be a MOSFET problem I’ll just pull the microswitch and live without mag priming.
Maybe this thread inspired some other snake pliskin wannabes…!!
If your going to wet set it with resin, for a permanent seal, i would reccommend the 6.3 mm metal rod from bunnings.
It sits deep into the barrel, and you can either make an alignment plug, like I did, or just eyeball it. Or cut two matchsticks of equal length.
Ie if its 20cm diameter, two 10 cm spacing sticks, one from each side.
This metal barrel / metal suppressor screw in setup is much more securely mounted
One handed swinging around would be do-able, and alignment much easier to sort out…
The mag only last 1.5 seconds, but thats longer than squiddy at a gas mask conference…!!
Just grab one of those smaller, scaled down beeman scopes, and Viola…!!
Big Mac-10, and the Junior Burger…!!!
(i dont know wether to laugh or cry, damn you OCD…!!)
On no, man… this is your thread. I’ve done enough hijacking.
Funny thing though… TT were sold out of MAC 10s not that long ago, then they had stock, now they’re sold out again. The one I got clearly has issues with the mag priming. Dangerous, in fact… because with the physical safety engaged, racking the charging button WILL make it fire.
I’m wondering if this one’s a customer return that they’ve just reboxed and resold… nah… they wouldn’t do that, would they?
I’m liking your direction of thinking with that UZI though
