Recieved my RPTR yesterday, installed it today.
Notes from installation
- The G3 vector rail does not have a retaining pin - it just has extra screws under the OEM flip irons. It doesn't even slide on, it just sorta sits on top of the upper.
- Springs be sproinging - be careful disassembling the trigger pack. The trigger reset spring really really wants to go flying.
- When I was disassembling the trigger I almost lost it, then when I was reassembling it and trying to hook it over the retaining screw I lost my grip on it and it went fucking flying off into space. After I ordered a new one and reassembled the gun without it, I stood up from my desk and naturally it fell out of my lap. At least now I have a spare.
- Apparently it is being recommended to install the .40 main spring, so I will try that out.
Tried the 40 round stendo Glock mags from kriss and the 50 round promag drum. 40 rounders were flawless. The 50 rounder wouldn't chamber when it was full so I had to download 2 rounds before it would work.
Recoil was super manageable, as you'd expect. Only thing I had to control was horizontal recoil.
I only ran into one malfunction - a stovepipe (which happened at the end of this clip).
I didn't buy the 3 position selector switch since they weren't offering it at the time but whatever. It means the super safe position is kinda vague and you have to wiggle a bit to find it.

Super super fun.
Definitely would love to get this for my Gen 3 eventually. Though, I feel iffy about having to install it myself. I wish I could just send them my upper half and have them do the install proper, but I understand how they can't offer that with them being a small outfit and all.
