    I'd pay more for the Faxon.
    I've seen pics of Trybe's where the gas key sheered right off.

    Ahh wasn't sure if you were looking for actual sights or and optic of some kind. Lots of people run the DD with an optic also.

    I was leaning towards the Faxon just b/c I know their reputation for 9mm AR barrels and assumed the BCG would work well.........but I don't want to "waste" $20 if I didn't have to :rofl: For the $20 extra, I think it'd be a better bet....cause if I have to replace it.....that's $109 thrown up a wild hog's ass :rofl:

    Uh, aren't those PCC bolts? How does the gas key sheer off in a blowback gun?

    Trybe makes BCG's for multiple calibers. If their quality is low for one caliber, not worth saving the $20 to find out if it sucks for their pistol caliber BCG's also.

    I'm honestly not sure which way I want to go on this one. I have another EPC-9 lower that I will eventually SBR, so I don't know if I want to keep them the same or try different setups.

    My ar-9 currently only has a red dot. If i were to build another I think I would put fixed irons on it only. And if I were to do that, the DD irons are definitely the ones I'd run as I think they are the best quality and I like the style. But that's just me.

    I don't use my irons as much as I should. I really need to make it more of a habit to practice with them more.
    Well need to shoot in general more also haha.

    I've got an Aero CH on my rifle, but of all the CH I've pulled.....I could never really tell a difference(other than being ambi). I'm sure the more expensive ones are better.....but I just don't have a use for them to be completely honest.

    The only reason I want an Aero Breach is b/c...........Aero :rofl: :rofl:

    Bought a new free float tube, get everything apart, go to tighten the new barrel nut and of course I have no tools that fit it. I needed a 1 1/8” crows foot, off to the tool store tomorrow.
