ole_noodle_nick @laruetactical are you going to be making more of the single stage triggers in the foreseeable future?

- ole_noodle_nick @laruetactical let's say sometime in the next 6 months.
- ole_noodle_nick @just_have_commonsense thanks, I saw that, that's why I asked. I have a built gun already and always wanted to try the single stage but I've never caught them in stock.

- laruetactical @divingdriver ... Yep, see how we wire in the pin hole right along with the profile ? It's all tied together and predictable AF. 💪🔥🎯 2 likes
jesse.templeton I fought with our old sodick 280 wire edm for the last two days trying to cut some new wire mesh forming die wheels. The speed at which your wire is paying off makes me jealous.

olivers_pops Please tell me you're making some 7" hand guards.
mal1nis Hopefully some MBT-1S will be available again
scvdannyboi Looks like our ole trusty Mitsu DWC wire. Patiently awaiting my UU kit shipment. I purchased from you specifically because you're a machinist (like me) and looks like you know what you're doing 🤣. Respect!

jth_ar15 Wow, theres a lot that goes into making a trigger, I couldn't imagine how many hours it took to program all the parameters to that machine software so that knows where to cut and how to cut, really makes it worth it when it comes to the final piece, meanwhile big G over there just stamps their shit together, throws their label on it, calls it super or some shit like that and idiots buy them up 1 like
soar_wave Do you hand code this or generate pathing in cam software?
