Gun and gear reviews How is your AD500A doing?

Post image

While I am waiting for the preorder Carmel to arrive. I decided to pulled the trigger on this Turkish ***. I am really regrets about the decision I made. It is sh*t, bought it from Tenda and tried to return or exchange it but they told me to contact the manufacturer. So the problem is the barrel nut always
gets loose just after firing less the 40 rounds PMC 223 ammo. The grouping at 100 yards are mysterious so I realized it’s because the barrel is moving so I hand tightening the barrel nut really tight and went back to the range again and it is still getting loose, Handguard is also get loose easily. I put the blue loctite on the muzzle brake so is not loose now. I am not sure if I loctite the barrel nut will be helpful. Seems a lot of people bought it so I would like to know if you have the same issues and how you solve the issue.

I'd start with blue Loctite and a wrench, not sure what's "professional" about that 😂 give the Loctite 24hrs to fully cure. Or don't, I don't care, hand tighten the fuckin thing.

lol for sure now it’s too tight to lose it by hand so I gonna go shoot the 3rd time until it loose then come back home put some loctite with the expensive wrench from my tool box and go shoot it on the 4th range trip to test it out lol

Your passive-aggressiveness combined with your poor English isn't worth replying to anymore. Try red Loctite instead if the blue doesn't hold. Not sure why you want to loosen it by hand. Maybe you don't want to get any scratches on your expensive wrench.

Complaining about their ‘passive-aggressiveness’ while cramming three passive-aggressive insults into four sentences is fucking hilarious. 😂 If you’re going to be a condescending dick, at least own it instead of pretending you’re offended by the exact behaviour you’re displaying tenfold.
