Does anyone know of an off the shelf way to use a tri lug adapter on the new FTN.5 Rifle cans? If not, is it as simple as modifying the thread adapter insert STL to take the threads of an off the shelf tri-lug adapter?
Never used CAD and this might be the project to get me to learn. I really want a white monster can hanging off the end of an MP5
I have not printed one, but from what I’ve heard it seems to garner pretty positive feedback. In my opinion, the way to better mitigate the loss of concentricity is to oversize the exit hole slightly larger than you normally would to compensate for this. I don’t believe the all printed system the trident offers is going to be longer lasting than a metal inserted thread adapter, but it does offer a cheaper and easier to make alternative that gives you the QD option. I believe this system would pair great with the aforementioned FTN 4.5 PCC.
I will take another look at this and print one at some point and see if it is viable, thanks for bringing it to my attention
