There's no point in bedding the barrel, especially with a liquid. You squeeze all that stuff between the face of the receiver & barrel. All you need to do is Lap the receiver to have the barrel trued to the receiver. Torquing the barrel nut will take care of the rest.

Got a barrel package, the gas tube was confusing, even after physically measuring it at home, got it on the 3rd try. Customer service was dog shit.

If you can slide that barrel on without heat or cooling, its no interference fit. Anybody who says otherwise isnt any real type of machinist.

With the proper fixtures and tools I’d rather drill and ream both at the same time for a taper pin rather than a coil pin, but for DIY this worked out well.

Waste of time and money. Who ever heard of "lapping" aluminum? Stoner designed this weapon with RAM Logic so it could be maintained in the field without a myriad of precision toola and specifications. The Army figured out long ago that any M16 out of the rack can be issued to a non-shooter along with 8 hrs of basic markmanship can achieve battle sight zero and engage and hit targets at 300-350 meters away with open sights.

I've enjoyed watching you put your new upper together. Are you building a 300 blk out? I just ordered a rifle speed gas block for an 11.5 5.56 build I'm working on. I'll likely take it to the gunsmith for pinning though, as I don't own a drill press.

I’m guessing the whole 90 degree thing with the torque wrench went out the window with the final precision torquing 😂😂😂😂
@GunFudded
@GunFudded Ай бұрын
The longer the adapter, the less accurate the 90° method gets. The extra 10 foot pounds adjusted for length with the formula got the alignment above the minimum and below the maximum, just right according to Aero’s specs.

What is the critical temp, if you don’t mind me asking?
@GunFudded
@GunFudded Ай бұрын
The alloy (7075) is heated, quenched, and aged at an elevated temperature in the manufacturing process to achieve the mechanical properties of the T6 designation (7075-T6). Critical temp is when it’s heated enough to affect those properties. Since it’s quenched at 470°C staying as far away as possible from that with a 2000°C torch is the objective.

If you can rotate the receiver and get it to slide up like that, it is not an interference fit at all to start with.

And just wrap your hand around the threaded part of the upper to warm it slightly and it will slide right on the barrel extension. No lube or solution needed.

SOLGW who also has thermal fit upper just did a video a few months back saying they don't have time for hair dryer or torches and to just beat it on carefully with mallet being you put muzzle end on something "softer than the barrel" their words. I've done exactly the way displayed with the 5 or 6 rotations under the heat and installed first few uppers I placed barrel in freezer. But that ends up creating more steps for the prep
@GunFudded
@GunFudded Ай бұрын
I watched that video and it reminded me of the time I saw a gunsmith at a show driving in pins with an adjustable wrench. And the time another gunsmith kinked the recoil spring in a 1911 disassembling it out of order. But I did buy a SOLGW combat trigger and it’s fantastic. If they whacked on it I sure can’t tell.

I have experimented with freezing the barrel but the humidity condenses on it instantly and any moisture will promote corrosion, especially between dissimilar metals. I opt for heat and bedding compound to keep that space dry and sealed.

I would argue that adding retaining compound to the extension of a barrel going into a thermal fit upper unnecessary. Think belt and suspenders 😅 But choosing to bed a barrel in no way indicates a “low quality” upper was used.

@GunFudded
@GunFudded Ай бұрын
Yep. Some use a belt to hold the gut in while the suspenders hold the pants up. The nut will hold it and the compound fills the surface and seals, eliminates any chance of corrosion by condensation infiltration, and locks the metals together when they expand and contract. Frequently used for bearing seats, injector cups, etc. in other disciplines.
