If excessive force was used I could see your point. That being said these guns are built and designed to be slapped, it’s even in the manuals for the AP5 and HK MP5. Here’s the exceprt from the AP5: “While holding the firearm in your primary hand, use the other hand to slap the charging handle downward, disengaging it and allowing it to fly forward.” The HK is here: “Vigorously slap the cocking handle out of the indent.” Long as you’re not using excessive force, then you’re good to go and this is the proper operation of the firearm. Mine are not safe queens - I take them out and shoot. If they wear out then they’ll get fixed or repaired. Thanks for the comment and I hope I was able to shed some light on the topic. I appreciate you being part of the squad - be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

​@VPTACTICAL I don't know about the AP5, but the MP5 is tuff as nails. We shot/carried them when I was with Dept Treasury. We shot/ slapped the heck outta them and there were no problems that I was aware of.

I believe that you are correct, it is a mid length gas system based on my research. That being said you’ve got the option to purchase the spring setup with one weight. Alternatively they sell a SRS AR15 kit which comes with the C, H, and H2 weight in the package. It’s only a few dollars more and would make more sense, especially if you don’t have an adjustable gas block. Another component of it is whether or not you’re running suppressed. For the money I’d spring for the kit, that way you can “tune” it to your specific gun. They also now sell the weights separately to swap out and they’re relatively inexpensive. I hope this helps point you in the right direction. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

@VPTACTICAL I can't seem to find that kit. Is there a part # ?

Took me a minute to find it: ARM253-AR15KIT That should help haha

@VPTACTICAL very helpful, thank you very much. I looked all over their website and couldn't find it lol.

@A.C.71 All good - happened to me the second time I looked for it, the wording of what I was searching made a big difference.

Haha thanks man! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

You got it 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸!

GGmagwells aka grit grips - they actually make them in aluminum now instead of poly. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

@VPTACTICAL awesome thank you. Likewise brother

Happy to help!

They’re made by a company called custom machined concepts, a quick google search and you should be able to pull them up. They make the base plates, magwells, and they’ve got a +2 extension coming. I’d link the site for you, but YT will take action against me. Thanks for the comment I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

It was down yonder haha, underbelly is right. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

Happy to help! I’ve tried both with and without claw, definitely made a difference to me. The butt of the gun sticks out way farther and prints without the claw. I suppose some of it could be body build related as well. Have you found a better solution or did you change out the claw?

🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

Congrats on the new gun, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Sure the ammo is a little pricey in comparison to 9mm, but man this gun is just a blast to shoot. Whenever I shoot it at the range it definitely turns some heads! Thanks for the comment and kind words, I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

It’s based on the platform itself - shouldn’t make a difference if you have the comped slide or not. Long as it’s made for the 43x/micro dagger platform you should be good to go. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

Hello good sir! Sorry for the delayed response, I’ve been super busy. I made a video to your comment, check it out: Will changing your trigger shoe lower pull weight?!? #pewpew #triggers #pewpew #pistolonly #sidearm th-cam.com/users/shortsuGHNEnmDr7g?feature=share

Thank you!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

It appears to be the same issue that I’m having, when the mag was brand new I didn’t have this issue. Seems like a problem with the spring and follower, my understanding is that PSA will send you replacement parts to rectify the issue. You have to setup a RMA/ticket with them to get it resolved. I’m going to put in my ticket today and see what happens. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🇺🇸🇺🇸🤙🏻🤙🏻. P.S. - I’ll post a follow up video once I have a resolution.

Check out border town, I’ve heard good to things about them, otherwise “we the people holsters.” You may also look at Alien gear - the first two look like they already have options for the dagger with the Tlr7, hope this helps. Thanks for the comment and I’ll see you around the channel!

@ Hey I appreciate the reply. I’ll definitely check them out. I’m thinking about getting the Dagger Micro C-1 . I’ve seen holsters for it just not for the compact lol !

Can’t go wrong with the C-1, I love the platform. Aside from normal break in procedures it’s been a solid gun. I had an issue with one mag, gun not locking back but nothing major. Here’s a link to the video: th-cam.com/video/7I-wuP_yN8c/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ns0i-ZA06aldSjuI

@ Hey does it feel small ? I have a G3C and to me that feels small, and I know they are close in size

I’d say they’re similar in size - the micro dagger is based on the g43x and the c-1 the g48. If you’re familiar with those platforms, those are the direct comparisons. I’ve got plenty of grip and purchase on the micros, I’ve got larger hands too. My $0.02

Thanks for the feedback, you’re right and I’ve ran into the issue with my larger scopes. Pain in the butt trying to charge the rifle, I even swapped the charging handle to one that has large grip surfaces. It helps but still much tighter than I’d like. My side charger is hefty, feels much heavier than others (rear charging) I’ve built or bought. The upper on mine is much thicker metal and the Bcg feels heavier as well. The dust cover could certainly be a draw back depending on your intended use and environment. Thanks for the tip on the other manufacturers, I’ll check them out. I appreciate the comment and for you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

I agree - they’ve been around for awhile, although it seems like they’ve started to gain traction in the market within the last few years. The old method is tried and true, this is just a different version of it. Thanks for the comment, I appreciate you! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

They most certainly have a cool factor to them and there’s something about racking the charging handle on the side that feels right. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

Awesome I’m glad to hear that setup worked out for you. I’ve got mine chambered in 6.5 Grendel and it’s been a blast to shoot. I don’t mind the rear charging systems but I do enjoy using the side charger setup. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

^^This! Bingo!!

You’re right - I’ve been working on my vehicles and foot lbs gets stuck in my head. Thanks for the correction - Happy New Year! I appreciate you being part of the squad, be safe and stay vigilant! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

No pens where harmed in the making of this video. All that being said you’re right - I goofed on this one, live and you learn. I’ve learned a lot of what I do by trial and error. Thanks for the tip 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

Thanks for the feedback, bummer to hear that happened. I’m glad they replaced it despite them being difficult to get ahold of… did you buy a different brand or go back to the traditional spring setup?

One heck of a gun that’s for sure, HK in a league of their own! Thanks for the comment and feedback, I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

That was my hunch, thanks for the confirmation. I appreciate the feedback and comment. Hope to see you around the channel! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

Hopefully this gets fixed quickly 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Much appreciated, thank you for the comment 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

You’re not wrong - I’ve used standard height sights with a suppressor and it works fine. That being said It’s much easier with said suppressor height sight’s but not impossible. The new models come with the suppressor height sights and the older version like mine have standard height sights. Thanks for the comment and feedback. I appreciate you being part of the squad, be safe and stay vigilant. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

Worth a shot, I haven’t explored the Johnny Glocks stuff as of yet. I’m interested too, lol.

To my understanding the factory carrier on these guns is not FA, that being said if you have your FFL/SOT, then modifications can be made (legally) and or parts swapped to accomplish the task. Hope this helps, thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

I hear you on that, sounds like an issue with the disconnector and or sear engagement. I’d probably reach out to overwatch and get some insight from them. Hopefully they can help resolve the issue!

Hello and welcome! That’s a good question - typically for defense weapons, many folks are going to stick with a factory trigger or something similar(milspec). Mainly due to the trigger pull weights and requirements by their department or branch of service (military). Something also to consider is the fight or flight response, which could unintentionally cause you to trip the trigger with a lighter pull weight in a stressful situation. That being said I generally prefer for duty weapons for the trigger pull to be around 6lbs. For mil-spec style but upgraded you may consider the ALG ACT OR ALG QMS, which are doing to be around 6lbs for trigger pull. If you’re adamant about having a lower trigger pull then consider the Wilson Combat TTU or Larue Tactical MBT2S. I hope this helps point you in the right direction, thanks for the question and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

Some of it will be trail and error to match up with your rifle, hopefully the lighter weight option will work. Keep me posted on it!

I’ve only had a positive experience running it both suppressed and unsuppressed in my PSA AR. I’m using a YHM Turbo on a .223/5.56. Generally I’ll report back after further testing with positive or negative feedback. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

I’d love to, sadly YT will shutoff comments when I link things, I don’t want them taking further action beyond that either.

It is a PSA micro dagger - the model is the extreme carry aka the standard version, which is modeled after the g43x. You’ve nailed it haha. Thanks for the comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸 Essentially the same gun as the PSA bundle you mentioned, although mine has an eps carry and upgraded trigger. I started with the optics cut pistol (no bundle) and added my own accessories.

@@VPTACTICAL Thank you for the information. I really enjoyed the video. And love the look of that PSA Dagger. I will have to company the dimensions of the Dagger with the G43X. Great video. I'm curious. What accessories did you add, in addition to the Holosun EPS Carry?

@psledoux Thank you! I added CMC baseplates to the magazines and a tactical pontoon trigger upgrade. The micro dagger and g43x are very comparable in terms of dimensions etc.

Thanks man and I appreciate the feedback, I also remember a time when a lot of folks were against Holosun and they’re considered a viable option now. I think once the company has proven itself then it’s a different story. Like you said time will tell! I appreciate the comment and feedback, hope to see you around the channel. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

lol - weird thing is it’s only the dots on the optic it won’t pick up haha. Go figure!

@@Flummer99 Much appreciated, thank you!! I hope to see you around the channel more often 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

You’re not wrong, working with what I had at the time. Besides getting an accurate reading indoors with a bunch of other people shooting is going to be a challenge . Thanks for the feedback!

@VPTACTICAL i want some 223 that are quiet enough to not need ear protection without a supressor does that exist

Aside from a pellet or bb-gun, no real firearm that I’m aware of is hearing safe without a suppressor, regardless of super or subsonic rounds fired. There may be one off products that could potentially do that, however, nothing that I’d trust my hearing with personally.

@VPTACTICAL if it soundes like 22lr ish or 410 . Id be happy. Not because of protection ill wear that . Just trying to not piss neighbors off . 22 and 410 are not near as loud as my 9mm or 223 or 12ga 22 makes a quiet shell that sounds like a pellet gun just looking for the equivalent in 9 mm and 223. I know they wont sound like a pellet gun . 120-130 db would be good but not the 150db and up regular shells.

@VPTACTICAL CCI makes a 22LR quiet just wondering if there's the same idea as that with 9 mm and 223 I know they probably won't cycle to semi-automatic but that's fine

I’m running this on a Stribog SP9A1 and it does not co-witness. I’d imagine it would be possible with an AR front post, unless you have back up sights. That being said I cannot confirm it’ll cowitness on the AR platform because I haven’t tried it. I might suggest checking out Reddit or AR forums. Hope this helps point you in the right direction. Thanks for the question and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

Thanks! That’s from ggmagwells aka gritgrips, they use to make them in polymer and now it’s aluminum. Still around the same 30-40/unit, however, they have a multitude of colors to choose from. Hope this helps 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.
