Hello everyone, just thought I'd share my MTR16 I recently bought. Never had a gbbr before and was always amazed at TMs quality over the years and finally bit the bullet. Just thought I'd share my thoughts and experience with it so far along with some questions.
The G Edition was pretty much the only version available when I was shopping for one so it wasn't my first pick originally but every other model had a 2 month plus pre order wait time. The gold accents are kinda tacky but I do like that it came with the ambi selector, mag release, bolt release and the flat trigger.
I've never shot a gbbr before so I was quite surprised with the recoil out of the box with propane. Very satisfying.
Internally it's currently stock other than a GunsModify reinforced nozzle reset. I have the dynamics precision reinforced valve blocker kit on the way as well.
Externally it currently has PTS flip up sights + hand stop, KAC CQB style suppressor w/ cloak foam inserts, BCM gunfighter MLOK rail panels and StreamLight ProTac HL-X. Waiting on a real steel EOTech EXPS3-4 and G33 magnifier to come in from back order.
Now for a few questions:
How does factory stock and MLOK rail system come off? I have a 10.5" one coming in along with a new outer barrel and I can't seem to find a disassembly video/guide for the rail and the stock isn't like the normal M4 style where I can pull the lever the other way to remove the stock. Maybe I'm just dumb?
Stock buffer, is it common for them to break? I had mine break into multiple pieces with only about 1000-1200 rounds thru it and have a GunsModify one on the way to replace it. Assuming using propane caused the issue?
