@@bredman86 Not a big fan light. I prefer stuff like this.

@@2AToday Thank you. Yes love the radiant 45 safety.

@@kellz8854 Getting that hammer in is definitely annoying. I struggled the first few times. It’s under a lot of tension and you have to line up the holes and hold the lower with one hand unless you have it in a vise. Much easier if you don’t use the silver pin. A small hammer to tap the pin in helps too.

Once you’ve installed a few it gets easier, there’s a technique you just gotta learn😂

@ Yup

@@CurtDarlington-g5l How else can I secure the switch? These are high temp zip ties. It would last at least 50 rounds.

@@DrZedd169 Yes it does. Not super uncommon to see.

@GearAndGuns I think im weird then. I prefer a more expensive gun and a mid level sight. Seems wild to have an ok performing gun and a really nice optic

@ The sight is the most important accessory on the gun because it allows you to hit what you’re aiming at. Glock is a personal preference for me, regardless of the cost I use Glock because they are reliable. Even if the gun was 2k, I would still choose a nice optic. I just don’t think the more expensive guns offer what they price them at. Only thing you get with a more expensive gun is a better trigger and slide serrations in my opinion.

@GearAndGuns Totally get that. Not being able to reliably line up your red dot because of poor equipment defeats the purpose of shooting, which is to hit your target. Have you ever gone back and forth from a Glock 17 to a Staccato XC? $3500 difference but night and day difference in performance

@ Unfortunately haven’t been able to shoot a staccato yet. I know they perform nice and the trigger is really light. Would like to get more time on them. I haven’t bought a 1911 or 2011 newer model because I’ve seen alot of problems with them. In my opinion there more for competition and range shooting. Also don’t have tons of money to test stuff out so I try to go with more reliable stuff. I’m sure the staccato xc is way more enjoyable to shoot though. I only have 2 pistols right now, my 19 for carry and 17 for outside the waist band.

@@QuietlyArmed Yeah surfire is my favorite for a lot of things, this was a dead air suppressor in this one.

@@GearAndGunsim dead 😂 i thought i was commenting on your other vid with the mini2

@ Lol, I figured that’s what you mean. Turns out the reason it was blowing fireballs is because it was on closed tine muzzle device smh. Some surefire suppressors don’t work well closed tined muzzle devices.

@@Randy_84 I don’t think it sucks but what do you mean by chewed up? I’ve heard some breaking but I think it’s good overall. Rcr is more durable, I’d like to swap the acro out for it someday.

@@johnzajac9849 Great shotgun, kind of overkill for most civilians though. I like the 1301 being lighter but some people like how reliable the m4 is.

@@djturnz It’s a Trex arms sling keeper with a plastic adjustable tensioner. They come with the sling if you buy one or you can buy them individually. Here’s a link to a video I did on that : th-cam.com/users/shortsiZc-fxlWO9w?si=ONsa9q2P7WLs6nqS

@@Buth838 Doesn’t matter how much you break it in it’s still stiff. I’ve installed multiple of these there all the same. It’s not bad advice, it’s called problem solving. I do know what I’m doing. I’ve built multiple of these lowers using the radian safety. Some people grind down the detent but I trim the spring some. There’s no problems from this unless you trim the spring to far. It’s fine and I’ve had no issues from slightly trimming the spring.

@ problem solving by weakening a part that wears in and already has catastrophic failures if the detent slips? Tell me again you know what you’re doing because I know you don’t. If it’s stiff then sit for a couple of hours flipping the safety for a week, that or actually use your platforms.

@ Springs don’t weaken, actuating the safety smooths the detent point out. Never had one failure from the safety doing this. Flipping it for hours a week with a full spring just grinds down the detent, that’s why people grind them down themselves. It’s not weakening the safety. I know what I’m doing regardless if you don’t think I do. Tons of people do this.

@ it does nothing to the detent. You need to look up how springs degrade. It’s the constant compression and decompression that wears springs. Detents are steel and don’t wear easily “smoothing out” go pull one out of an old rifle and you’ll see what I mean. Try again. Just because pappy told you to do it with his bushmaster doesn’t mean it’s in any way a good practice.

@ whatever you say man

@@dantea8787 A 100 yard zero will have less offset overall up close than a 50 yard zero because it flattens out the trajectory of the bullet more. There’s less variation with the 100, 50 or 25 has more arc.

@@Flummer99 Thank you. Will do. 👍🏼

@@jackmehauf542 Full spring is way too stiff, that’s how they all are. I’ve installed multiple of these. If I don’t trim the spring I could get myself killed by not being able to switch it fast enough. Trigger discipline is enough and using your safety in combination will make sure nothing bad happens. Never had a negligent discharge and the safety is way better this way.

@@theoriginaldashriprock why?

@@mattinghas4124 It’s helpful to some people.

@GearAndGuns i mean... yeah, just never crossed my mind ya know?

@ I understand that. I record my process regardless if it’s simple.

@@GearAndGuns it's good for those coming into this world

@ Yes, or someone who hasn’t seen this optic mounted before. I make anywhere from beginner to more advanced videos. Whatever project I’m working on, if it makes sense to record and post, I try to do that.

@@TacDyne Didn’t know about that. I don’t think the spring is too stiff, I just think it’s too long. Seemed easier to cut the spring👍🏼

@@maxbleeker5055 Dang man that’s terrible. Gun laws are retarded. Sorry man. Just have to buy a complete rifle if you really want one.

That's messed up. Hopefully the current round of lawsuits will clear that up. It's unconstitutional. 18 is adult, your other freedoms aren't limited to 21+.

@ I agree.

One time, I ordered a lower off PSA, under my account, but I used my dad’s card because he was giving me the money as a birthday present. I pull up to the FFL and they tell me I can’t pick it up because I didn’t buy it 😂😂

@ Wow 😂 That’s tragic

@@dylanmartinez2157 That’s unfortunate. Have to join the wait list I guess.

@@bens3566 That’s awesome, glad I was able to. Will do man 🤝🏼 I did a long form video on this as well if you’re interested in that. It’s easier to follow because it’s more detailed, explained better and the process is slowed down. It’s also a review on the products and I talk about why I chose them. You may like that a little better if you’re trying to use it to install your own. Here is the link or you can find it on my channel : th-cam.com/video/CH8P_cp3Py4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=269NMDcdSkHv-cFu

@ Awesome I’ll check it out, I’m actually building my first rifle so finding an account that offers clear concise yet detailed instructions and Info is a boon to new shooters. You earned a new sub, hope you have a good one and looking forward to new content!

@ That’s awesome you’re building your own rifle. Good for you! I have short and long form videos for each step on building the lower receiver on my channel. Regarding the upper receiver I haven’t built my own yet because there’s so many good companies out there who make complete uppers, I’ve just bought bcm uppers. Hopefully someday I’ll build my own and be able to record it. Thank you for subscribing. I really appreciate that. You have a good one as well 🤝🏼 I’ll keep it coming out as fast as I can.

@@herbertmartin4320 Sig was misleading making it seem like you can use any trigger. I tried to use my Geissele Ssa-e trigger and it damaged it. If it does not get any better I’ll have to replace it for one of sigs triggers or a heavier mil spec trigger that’s like a 5 lb trigger. I think the Ssa-e was too light and that’s why it was damaged. From my bad experience I wouldn’t recommend you get the conversion kit. I would just buy the entire firearm with the sig lower that comes with it. If you do get the conversion kit, make sure you use an sig trigger or a heavier mil spec trigger. That seems to work better. Hope this helps.

@@davidgraham2673 P2 is pretty good for the most part, I have heard some complaints on them failing or breaking but it’s relatively small compared to how many are out there. The new Trijicon RCR is supposed to be more durable but at the price of $774, it’s getting closer to the T2. Rcr is right in between the p2 and the t2 price wise. Yes I think durability and reliability are very important, especially on a shotgun. Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it and I hope it was helpful.

@@commalTl Oh yeah so much easier. Love the threaded end lower receivers. Hope more companies do stuff like that. Trying to smash that spring in with the end plate is annoying 😂

🤔 I’ve got a tap and die set and a box of set screws.

I love aero lowers for this reason, I’m not entirely sure if other brands do it but I just aero to be the most common use one. I have an ar10 and an ar15 in 556 both upper and lowers by em

@ I love aero lowers because of these reasons too. Their threaded spots make the install a lot easier. Haven’t used their uppers before though.

@@GearAndGuns it’s just a normal upper, you can get better. You can get worse. It just fits the lower better I think so I get it

@@AndresGonzalez-kp7dd Didn’t want to buy a tool so figured out a way to do without. You don’t have to trim the springs, I did it to make the take down pins easier to pull out and push in if taking off the upper. They have a lot of resistance with the fulls springs on this upper, especially when using the screw in the rear.

@@AndresGonzalez-kp7dd Thank you for your service 🫡🤝🏼 Tools not needed like you said, just have to be a little more careful.

@@jr303official Aero ambi is decent, I don’t like the right side bolt controls. I prefer this lower but it is a bit overpriced.

@GearAndGuns it's also about half the price on sale. It's a forged lower, so it's lighter and stronger. Also, on mine, I was able to put on an extended mag release.

@ Half the price is true and lighter I can imagine. Not sure about the strength but I don’t think that matters much for lowers. Haven’t had a need for extended mag releases but if you like that more that’s good. This is the highest quality lower I’ve seen.

@GearAndGuns have you ever looked at ARQ 15 or Ascend Armory reciver sets? Those are amazing. I don't think the extended mag release is nessisary, but if you use it, you understand.

@ This is my first time seeing those. What do you like about them? Yeah I haven’t been able to use one but I could see it being helpful.

@@502outlaw2 No problem, glad you enjoyed it and happy to help.

@@anthonyyoung754 Probably better to. I try to brace it when I remember but when you dry fire it, there’s nothing to brace it then.

@@gruffsbadmojo Glad you like it, I should’ve just stayed with black though.

@@112233or1 Thank you 👍🏼

@@Rique7447 Quality over quantity my brother 👍🏼 I might have a video coming up of something that’s actually not quality but I didn’t pay for it.

@ I feel you man, keep it coming🤝🏻

@ A company is supposed to send me out a cheap optic. It’s not something I would buy myself, recommend or use. Only reason I agreed to it is because I wanted to try out an optic with a green dot. So I’ll make a couple videos on that but won’t be recommending most people to buy it. Also just something to be able to make videos on to keep content coming out but everything I normally make videos on is quality. This will be an exception, I will explain more in the video. Will do man 🤝🏼

@@GearAndGuns Eotech makes a green optic but the cheap Chinese ones have one you can switch between red and green 😂😂 I feel like a red one would be better due to your eyes seeing it better. But a G-33 and EXP-3 on a AR-15 is a match made in HEAVEN

@ I’d much rather Eotech send me one then Cvlife but yeah it’s cheap Chinese lol. I definitely prefer red but was interested to try out green. Yeah that setup is awesome, that’ll be my next rifle optic setup, plan to put that on a 10.3. 👍🏼

@@808G8GT I disagree, reliability and durability aren’t overhyped. What’s better and cheaper? And how? Holosun? Steiner?

@@timyoung2082 I understand.

@@SharkyF90 Looks like a decent option but wasn’t my first choice. I shouldn’t have got the conversion kit for this though. A lot better as a full gun. I think I’d prefer the honey badger over the maxim defense, that’s a better comparison to that. This is a little different because it’s piston.

@@nickpark4561 I’ve owned both the benelli and this beretta. The grips are both fine to me. I don’t think it’s worth the money to change out the stock and grip, but thanks for the input.

@@joelbellJB Been using it for years and I like it alot better than the stock one and another I tried. Easier to hit and out of the way of my grip so it ensures slide lock.

@@CobraTate-ig2kf I like it better. A lot easier to hit and out of the way of my grip so my slide locks back more consistently.

@@koreyphan No problem. Happy to help. I agree 🤝🏼

@@paxtonwheeler98 I’d like to do that but unfortunately I’m not building an upper right now. I also haven’t ever built my upper because companies like bcm, Geissele and Daniel defense make really good uppers so haven’t felt the need to build my own. Sorry. I wish I could.

@ I appreciate the response. I’ll probably follow suit and buy a complete upper down the road. Thanks

@ No problem, happy to help. Just alot easier in my opinion to buy a complete upper when there’s a lot of good companies out there.

@@jesus-ok1hd Yes it is the same besides in the enhanced lpk it has the trigger guard but if you have the m4e1 you want need it because it has the fixed trigger guard. The trigger you get might be slightly different but it’ll be very similar. I’d recommend watching my long form videos instead of trying to use these shorts. The videos are slower so they’re easier to track what I’m doing and see what I’m doing alot better. They’re also more detailed. If you look on my channel, I have videos showing how to build your full lower receiver. I think they would be more helpful to you than the shorts. 👍🏼hope this helps.

@ thanks for the help I’ll be sure to check out your other videos once my lpk comes in

@@jesus-ok1hd No problem happy to help. Yes I’d definitely check those out and use those instead it’ll be a lot easier to fall along instead of a short video I have to trim down.

@@U.S.AVDUB89 Glock mos adapter plate set. Here’s the set it was apart of : www.glockstore.com/Glock-MOS-Adapter-Set I recommend forward controls adapter plates though, they’re a lot more durable and reliable : www.forwardcontrolsdesign.com/opf-g-dpp.html

@@rbarnes8169 For this I did. Otherwise the takedown pins are really hard to pull out and push in.

They’re meant to be that size. Don’t listen to this guy get the right tool and you won’t have a problem

@ Doesn’t have anything to do “the right tool”. With a full spring the takedown pins are extremely hard to get out to the point of needing to punch them out. Trimming the spring helps a lot. Some people grind down the detent, I don’t like doing that. I’m not going to use a full spring, if you want to go for it.

@@GearAndGuns I always put the spring in without that tool just my hands alone but I recommend the tool for people who aren’t used to building ARs. There a reason why the spring is that size. No reason to change the size just to make it easier to install

@ I didn’t use a tool, I used a take down pin and an Allen key which you need the Allen key to install the rear screw. I also didn’t trim the spring to make it easier to install. I trimmed the spring because when using a full spring and the pins are installed, the take down pins are extremely hard to pull out and push in. Im not going to carry around a punch and hammer to push in and pull out the pins.

@@ModliteSystems Thank you for that information and sharing! Haven’t seen that before but man that thing is extended for sure lol. Definitely another good option. Great for hand guards like this. Hard to find all the options but that was helpful thank you 👍🏼🤝🏼

@@ModliteSystems Glad you liked it! This means a lot coming from your company! I’ve been using your flashlights from the start of my journey. Your products are great, I’ve enjoyed using them and they’re a top recommendation from me. I appreciate your support as well brother 🤝🏼🫡
