Maccabee Defense SLR Non-Restricted Receiver Set [WAIT LIST]

[Sqr]

I agree. Screwing the aluminum upper and lower together with metal screws seems like a bad idea. If I understand correctly, you will have to unscrew them for a simple field strip. I wonder how many times you can clean your rifle before the aluminum threads strip?

My AR’s go thousands of rounds before cleaning so this will not be any different.

Are there any updates on the rifles yet? I haven't heard anything in a while.

the latest update was shipping to being mid July.
This represents another delay, not unexpected but still disappointing.

Any idea when/if another pre-order will open up or if you'll start receiving regular stock at some point?

That does not address his question. You may shoot thousands of rounds through your ar, but you eventually clean it. Some of us like to clean our Guns more often then others, and doing so with this set may cause the threads to wear out and that would be very upsetting.

What will happen to the threads after loosening and tightening 5,10,20 or more times ?

I would hope that they have an insert with steel threads to prevent stripping the threads. But if they don’t then it’s pretty easy to put a Helicoil in after it does. Then you’ll never have to worry.

Also if it is a steel bolt into aluminum threads put some never-seize on it and don’t go ape sh!t tightening it up. Keep a wrench in your range bag and just make sure it’s snug before you start firing and every few magazines until you figure out how long it takes to loosen off.

If they do wear out one could slap a heli-coil or better a nut-sert in quite easily. I don’t believe the nut needs to be tight enough that it would be an issue. I guess we will find out... someday.

Any news? or still same schedule expected?

It's too early to say. As soon as we are confident in ship schedule (and/or we have surplus stock) we will announce it. Folks on the wait list will get first crack
