M4 Tube Extension... Is Ti really worth it?

[CrossedRifles]

Any pointers on where to buy one immediately? Lead time on website is apparently 3-5 weeks.

Just recently got a M4 and I'm wondering does installing the mag extension need the heat gun or is it really easy? I'm a not a handy person so it would be a nightmare to do anything that requires tools.

Yes. The Loctite on the mag threads will need to be heated to release. Do not use a torch!
Heat the receiver for a while first, then the tube. This will allow the receiver to expand a little, helping to unscrew the mag tube.

And when it's hot enough, it'll be easy to twist-don't force it. It may cool enough to lock down before you get it off, so repeat the process. Most importantly, be patient.

What parts did you guys replace to make 922R compliant?

Mag tube, follower and hammer (from Carrier Comp/Geisel). Could also do hand guards from Freedom Fighter. All are reasonably easy...although getting my tube off gave me fits. Seems that a crazy amount of Loc Tite was used on mine.

3 to 5 weeks . Oh well, gives one time to install the hammer.

I went the mag/follower/mesa urbino route.

Hammer, mag and follower. Trying to keep it stock, except for those that NEED to know.
