So when i was buying my patmos G19 gen3 upper i asked the guys if he happens to have rails and he said no later he had a little case full of bags of parts he let me look through and found a set. He said there might be extra parts in here So i got it it looks just like an aves or riptide but it came with rails 2 pins and a tiny spring (spring is for gen5 if I’m correct)
NOW The pins provided wont fit in the front rail.. so I measure and i get 2.8 i happen to have a drill bit that’s the same size i was using it to bang the other pins and it fits right in smooth s tiny bit of play its not rock solid but i measure it and its 2.7. Mm Also no other pin from LPK fits through
Tried it on 2 different frames sanded out to make the whole block fit perfectly,out of the frame it doesn’t start to fe

As the tittle says the trigger doesn’t engage with the sear. The sear assembly had a tight install which I had to remove access filament to make the assembly fit, slide cock backs normally, slide stop works, grip safety doesn’t and the trigger doesn’t engage with the sear but does work. (XD40 Full-size btw)
The Ark @fosscad.io Glock mag spring question
Originally posted by u/PancakesandScotch at 2025-06-23T13:52:48Z
Wanted to do straight mags for a project I’m working on. (These Fair Deal mags are excellent fwiw)
I got a pack of extended mag Glock springs for next to nothing and was hoping to use them.
Obviously they’re a bigger diameter spring, they’ll seat on the follower differently, etc. They’re also too large for the channel in the mag.
Any designs/applications I can easily use these springs on? Just more Glock mags?
Looks like I’ll need to order the black dog springs for these Fair Deal mags, easy to justify now that I’ve printed one and see how sturdy they are
The Ark @fosscad.io Tolerances

Im looking to get into printing. Im reading that most printers have tolerances of +/- .5mm. Is this tight enough for parts and accessories such as lowers, scope mounts, etc. Thought about getting sla printer but seems theres a big difference.

What’s everyone’s preferred way of printing like a Glock lower and what is their go to filament? Been using Esun PLA+ and doing rails up getting some decent prints. Gonna try a rails down right now. But wanted to get some intake from everyone else who has printed some and used them. How reliable is PLA+ is pa6-gf30 better or petg? Just trying to gain some knowledge since I’m only a month into printing.

Is it big enough for things like a fgc 9, wisp or a DeAR22?
What are the size limits for printing parts?
Any help and maybe even better alternatives are appreciated.🫶

An ID on the stock, grip, & hand-guard would be nice, I've been looking for an M4 style hand guard for a while.

Just curious what you have found to work good. I was gonna print at .1 but 2 days seems excessive.

Originally posted by u/Sqweeeeeeee at 2025-06-23T03:48:29Z
Now that FRTs are fully back on the menu, I finally got around to a print that has been on my to-do list. I ended up having to make a couple of tweaks to the Hit Arm and Locking bar, but took it out for a test today and it ran great.
The guide says that it requires an M16 disconnector and goes on to warn of hammer follow if the hit arm wears too much. As I was tinkering with it and thinking about the operation (https://imgur.com/a/2lCtUuk), I realized that if you are using an M16 cut receiver you can just use an unmodified AR-15 disconnector. Using a standard disconnector instead of the M16 disconnector has the added benefit that if the FRT fails it just defaults to normal operation instead of experiencing hammer follow. If you're using a receiver that isn't M16 cut, I think that using the standard disconnector wil
The Ark @fosscad.io is there a way to find proper/closer color matches for filament? (recommendation) HTPLA/PLA+

looking for the closest match to united nations Pantone 2925, #5b92e5 blue. a million blues out there but comparison photos and eyedroppers aren't particularly useful because color doesn't translate in photos and such.
