General Discussion @forum.guncadindex.com FTN.4 Failure
I have a few questions on the FTN as we get closer to Jan 1. I plan on submitting quite a few form 1s. This is my original form 1 that had a failure after less than 200 rounds. The particular day of failure was very cold and failed after only 2 standard capacity mags back to back not rapid fire. I followed PLAbois guide to a T.
- Is the FTN.4 the most solid 3d printed suppressor so far? Best performing?
- Best mounting method? I used KAK micro flash hider.
- Any other suppressors worth looking into? 5.56 as well as other calibers?
This failure happened with an 11.5” KAK “suppressor only” barrel. The core is annealed polymaker PA6 and I used a liberal amount of JB Weld.
I am also wondering about a guide or build video. I figured with this being such a popular build that there would be more literature or a video.
I have everything but the handguard printed, but am curious on the charging handle. The read me gives general instructions but just says to use a “short 1/8” Allen key”. I am also wondering if it should be glued into the charging handle and if the slappy knob should be glued to the end of the Allen?
Maybe once I get to building it will be very intuitive and that’s the reason there is no need for docs.
