    From testing the TT triggers here, yes. I am sure there are still going to be some odd triggers that still won't work "drop in" but we have cut down on that number substantially with this change to the hook boss.

    Yes. It took them 10 days to respond to my email and the gist of the response was "we're sorry to hear that, let us know if we can help you".

    It's an odd way to respond when "send us the receiver set and we'll replace it" is the only acceptable answer.

    At that point I gave up on receiving any meaningful customer service and got out the power tools.

    Their follow up response when I pointed out how disappointed I was with their product and service was "our cell number is posted on Facebook and Instagram." No offer to replace was made.
    Whatever

    They are too busy pumping out receivers that are out of spec to deal with customers. They will let their poor stocking dealers deal with the headaches.

    Just for clarity, as this thread is in ATRS forum - that rifle above is the SLR, correct?

    Don’t want people who are uneducated to jump in, see that post and assume it is ATRS work.

    Based on where the serial is (which side) in comparison to the bolt catch - that is ATRS’ competitor, the Maccabee SLR

    The rear tab was gouged quite a bit. This concerned me because these tabs are a known week point. I figured that the gouge had created a line that, combined with the tight roll pin hole, was the perfect week point to possibly split along. Not a good place for something like this.

    I tried tapping the roll pin in and could tell that it was going to be very tight so I stopped. This time I wasn't taking any chances. I have some longer than normal drill bits so out came the drill. Not overly thrilled but I think it was the best route to take. Pin then tapped in as it should.

    Here's the rifle built. IBI 7.62x39 barrel is going on a MS when it arrives but I couldn't wait till then to try it out.

    Attachment 268212


    Final thoughts: Both products are very different from each other, both in design and execution. One was absolutely flawless and assembled without any issues. The other is functional but lacking in the attention to detail department.
    I am considering one of these barrels so let’s have a review.
