If you’ve ever done balljoints on an HD truck with this tool then you already know what’s up. 20 minutes to do all 4 with a beer in between each side. The cheap C-clamp style tool does work.. most of the time, sorta. But this tool is the king.

In a professional shop it might make sense to spend the $1200 on this. I used it many times and I actually enjoyed those jobs because it was so fast and easy. I wish there was an alternative for half the price or less for home-use where I might do ball joints once every few years. I haven’t found a significantly cheaper alternative brand for this specific style press.

It’s seriously terrible. It was bad years ago and it’s only gotten worse somehow.

FFS this is my LGS and I’m finding myself buying elsewhere more and more each time I try to use their site to give them money. It’s dogshit

Tucked builds look great and catch a lot of heat around here (pun intended) and usually for good reason. But it can be done well and fully functional with the right setup. Here’s my 8” 300blk with half tucked AEM5-30k inside a 9.3” enhanced rail.

Allegheny Arms tapered gas block & short brake is how I mounted the reflex suppressor.

The rail doesn’t heat up faster or hotter than a typical 5.56 carbine at the gas block. Bare hand C-clamped right over the suppressor, 120rds of supers with FRT got warm but not uncomfortable. I’m sure at some point it does get uncomfortable but 4 mags is a pretty decent string. 1.5” od suppressor leaves enough room for Mlok screws on this 1.72” id rail.

YMMV if you run a different caliber or suppressor diameter. But if you want a tucked suppressor you’ll enjoy shooting, then you want a slimmer can with 300blk.

Coming from a Sig Tango MSR 1-6.. this thing is incredible. Can’t wait to get it to the range and get it dialed in

KAK has one but it’s never in stock. Anyone have a suggestion for 8” with 1:5 to replace my 1:7? I can cut down a longer barrel but I’d prefer not to. It must be 8”.. 7.5 won’t work and 8.3 won’t work
