Post by: No. 6 on August 31, 2018, 08:32:41 AM
I'm afraid it may prove fatal...

Just bought one and ordered the first of many parts.  Pictures to follow.

Try owning two of them, both SBR'd and suppressed. :'(

You think that's bad? Wait until you start going through all your ammo because it's so much fun to shoot!
Congrats on your purchase!

Yeah, the gun is cheap compared to the ammo, and I reload. By far the "hungriest" gun I own.

Any PCC is going to eat up a lot of ammo.  I shoot more 357 out of an 1894C than any of my revolvers.  And it?s probably around a 20-1 ratio if not higher.  PCCs are just fun to shoot.

Got several parts in on Saturday.  Barrel (5.3 inch) and prostock charging handle from HBI.  Finally able to put it back together and test fire it.  Waiting on a shipment from Yeti Wurks - PMM QD sling and Switchback grip (gen 3) which should be here tomorrow.  Still have to figure out optic (suggestions please!) and FC switch (too many to choose from!).
One question I have is when I replaced the mag release with the HBI Aluminum duckbill, I used the CZ factory spring and I've noticed it is loose/rattly.  It retains the magazine fine and does have to be pressed to release the mag.  But it just seems like it has a lot of play in it vs. the factory set up.  Anyone else experience this?

Ignore the above question, found out it was a bent spring in the mag release.  Fixed it.

Update:

Picked up a second lower/trigger pack complete.  Most likely trigger will be polished and replace the spring.  Then the FA Binary trigger installed in the other one, but maybe not, haven't really committed to it but wanted to have the option.
Yeti Switchback, PMM rear sling mount, MagPul MLOK sling socket, Troy Battle Sights, HBI charging handle, HBI 6.84 hand guard, HBI 5.3 barrel, HBI aluminum duckbill mag release, (seeing a pattern here?), Magpul MLOK rail and covers, Gear Sector hand stop all installed.
SBR engraving (thanks Mark!).
SBR tax stamp purchased and submitted.
AAC Ti-Rant 45 purchased and waiting tax stamp to clear.

TBD - optic, light, light/laser.

Update 2:

Added:
Streamlight TLR-1HL w/ tape switch
HB Industries (there's that company again) mini AK selector LH and RH

Removed:
Gear Sector hand stop (TLR-1HL now acts as the hand stop)

Big improvement with the new selector switches, much easier to manipulate and no hot spots on right index finger now. 

Just need to figure out which optic now....
