Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

I was wondering when the first folder would pop up on the hide, looks good... That would be a very fun critter zapper
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

ill trade you my cz 527 varmint for it...i dont want to but you seem like a nice guy and i wanna help you out
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

Very nice George. That'd make a sweet truck gun for the varmints? Pretty slick.
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

Sweet! I could make that work in a short drag bag. Especially when I'm out in the hills on my dirtbike....

When I saw that stock on Manner's website, I knew George would be right on it......grin!
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

Nice that stock looked cool in the post by Manners, but seeing a complete rifle makes it look even better!
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

That seems like the perfect truck gun or IMO it does. Very nice George.

A twelfth model mounts to 22mm threads which are usually on a brake but can be threaded directly onto a barrel as well.

Guess i never thought of that i kept thinking to myself if George was using the 12th model brake and collar, how did he get the collar on there? I guess you could shave the contour at the muzzle

I understand that, my question comes from myself thinking of a 223 bolt gun build prior to this work of art. Ops Inc says the brake is an integral design to the overall can and acts like the first baffle, also that without using it it greatly reduces the can life due to the lack of the brake catching the initial blast. This all came to be and made me call Ops inc because I saw Smith Ent makes a vortex brake that is threaded on the outside for an Ops can but obviously isnt the side port design of the OPs brake.

SO, I just havent seen a bolt gun with a Ops brake on the end, wondered if George did that or just threaded it and contoured the 20 degree taper, no brake. George is one helluva smart guy and if he deemed the brake was unneccesary than by all means I will follow his lead. Kinda wondered myself if Ops just says that to keep you using their brake and not running other companies versions or not one at all, hell the brake/collar set is another 150 bucks or so in their pocket.
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

I'm wondering how it's set up for the 12th as well. I've got a 12th model and would like to do that...

Ah. My OPS is an M4S but it still has a blast baffle in it. They are 316L rather than Inconel, so obviously its not going to last like AAC or Surefire without the brake in front of it but in a bolt gun I suspect it doesn't matter. I'd be curious to see the difference between blast baffles on the 3rd and 12th models.

Also, to the prior poster, there is no collar on this, the 20 degree shoulder is right in the barrel. Thats a pretty good setup. I bought a used AW barrel like that for my brother.
 
Re: GAP Folder , New Manners TF-1

Here are a few Pictures of the front. Yes you do have to use the brake for the system to work properly, I cut the 20 Deg in and Timed the Serial # up then pulled the tool straight out so it gives the clean look of a suppressor fully shouldered up even though there a few thousanths gap. It turned out nice!
