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.

Yup just those two issues. Everything else is great! I Fixed the hand guard screw issue with some thread tape… and for the barrel nut constantly getting loose…. Well I’ll figure it out later lmao 😂 I’m going to try getting an actual tool on it as well as some blue locktight.
