It's not even after every range trip. If you clean it every 500 rounds or so it's fine. I shot 650 out of mine in a weekend and it didn't carbon lock which is why I'm wondering who said it was an issue? People who never clean their pistols? I know a few but they know what they're getting into by neglecting their firearms. I've throughly tested this with 5 of my own personal Ramjets and I'm in a circle of people who shoot a lot and 11 of them all have Ramjets. Not one has experienced carbon lock. One says he shot 2,000 rounds before cleaning it. He does maintain it. Cleans the comp, threads and greases the area where comp and barrel interface. No issues.

@@2amichaelj I had carbon lock after my first 300 rounds through it. It took a bit to get it off when I went to clean it. It was not a big deal but I can see why they changed it. Personally I think its not an issue gen1 vs gen2. Gen 2 in my opinion is probably better.

@@maxmccain8950 they should be the same trigger bar. OEM is the ridged bars. Companies like Overwatch Precision makes their own gen 5 trigger bars from gen 4s that are not ridged but the single hump ones. What I find interesting is I can take an OEM trigger assembly from one Glock and put it in another and it'll feel completely different. Same with connectors. A connector will feel completely different in a different Glock, same model and generation. I honestly don't remember which trigger bar this came out of as I've swapped parts in a few builds to tune each pistol to my liking. It is a ridged bar but extremely polished. If you have the ability to play around with a few parts I would try and test to see what works best for you. Triggers are pretty objective to the individual. I wouldn't really mess around with firing pin springs unless it's going into a fun only build but installing a lower powered firing pin spring will lighten the trigger quite a bit but may cause light primer strikes.

@@jofosho2762 it's to help if you take off the optic and put it back on, to ensure you put it in the exact same place. If it's a good optic mount, there shouldn't be a noticeable shift in zero. The reason you would take off your optic is to utilize different optics on the same rifle. It's not a huge deal but it is an added feature.

@@2amichaelj Thanks so much! That's what I was thinking, but wanted confirmation; really appreciate it

It's from Shield Arms. It's one of the best magazine extensions I've used out of the 19 different brands and types I've used for Glocks. They were just running a blem sale recently and they were $20 a piece with the extra power spring. I'd wait for those types of sales, not that they aren't worth it but $40 is the MSRP and if I can save $20 I'll save $20 and just be patient for the right time to buy.

Because he didn't read the installation instructions that mitigate that exact "issue" before posting a review that was critical of the product in that regard.

@@RenoMay I'll take some smoke from you. One of my points is tolerances open up as you take on and off the comp. The tear drop design will keep the comp centered when that happens. The first generation is a better design. I'm gonna die on that hill. Thanks for visiting and commenting on my little channel though. California is still a hellscape.

Overwatch Precision Have Blue magwell.

@@charles17508 I personally think the ramjet/afterburner is a better, more versatile choice. Out of all the comped options I've tried, it reduces the most recoil for me. Although I have to think it's partially because you have a chuck of steel sticking out on the end of your muzzle, opposed to aluminum comps or nothing with ports. On top of the performance, you're able to use more parts and swap back to OEM with basically a barrel change. Threaded barrel comps suffer from all the same issues. Timing, set screws and some barrels and comps not playing well together sometimes. Maintenance is really nice and easy with the ramjet too opposed to others I've tried. And I'm OCD with cleaning and maintenance on my firearms. Aftermarket slides can sometimes be finicky but I really like this Arc Division one. They did quality work. The shorter profile slide does make a difference when carrying and it's been really reliable while adding some reduction in recoil. I appreciate the view and comment. Keep on educating yourself on this stuff, especially if you're making a large purchase. I personally like watching independent, non sponsored content to get the least biased opinions where sponsored content has skin in the game. Those creators wouldn't want to piss off those giving them money, ammo or free products now. Just some food for thought.

@2amichaelj freaking got that right man .

@@MantraDNG just remember companies like Olight claim the same things. They make changes not because of cost cutting measures or because they have actual issues with products but because of "real" customer feedback. I'm not saying Radian is lying but be aware that's marketing terminology.

@@MantraDNG and are you saying my feedback is any less? How many Ramjets have you purchased and how many rounds do you have out of them? I currently own 5. Two gen 1s and three gen 2s with about 15,000 round through them. My personal experience is that the whole carbon locking thing isn't any different between the two. I have noticed drifting in my taper pin however.

@2amichaelj Triggered more than those pistols you got.. relax buddy just pointing out assuming sure made an ass put of you. Enjoy your Gen 1s!

@@ns8548 yes. That would be the cheapest route if you're not trying to stock magazines as the magazines are like $40-$50 a piece. This is how I've been running it, on a mil spec lower with the CMMG AR15 9mm magazines. The radial delayed blowback is nice because you can run a standard 3oz buffer and not those 9oz 9mm ones. It's the softest shooting PCC I've shot in the AR platform.

@@Hiddencomment007 how gay of you🤡

@@ronniepier8193 This is still my favorite rifle and the 1st one I pick when training. It's been extremely reliable with no issues other than magazine and ammunition related malfunctions. Sharps bolts are really good. Even after years of using them, I still look for SRC BCGs in new builds. Thanks for the support brother.

@@TooManyChoices1 the realest comment here. You ain't wrong. I guess I have a type with a few odd balls sprinkled in.

Not very 2A of you to tell others what they need

Right. More like 2 gay. ​@69Clay420
