So, as you might remember, I bought a Chinese titanium MOS plate that turned out to be far superior in fit and finish compared to the American-made Forward Controls Design plate, which caused a lot of seething on here.Some of the /k/ope included:>you need to hand-fit it>it has to be oversized, because it shouldn’t fit out of the box>just put it in the freezer, bro>if you have common core reading comprehension, the plate was actually advertised as out of spec>nobody has figured out hwo to machine metal to specAnyway, because I’m a curious person, I got myself another American-made plate. Not to compare it with the Chinese one (which we all know is superior), but to test whether the Chinese plate is actually made of titanium. Since titanium is heavier than aluminum, you can compare the weight ratio to tell if one is aluminum and the other is titanium. I know this isn’t definitive proof, but it’s enough to put my mind at ease.So I went online, looked for an American-made aluminum plate, and ordered one from CHPWS. And oh boy ,if I thought FCD was bad, I wasn’t prepared for this shit lmao1. It’s visibly smaller, and when mounted on the Glock, it rattles.
>>642742542. The holes for mounting the optic to the plate are too small. The screws provided didn't fit. It is so obvious, you can see it with your bare eyes. Guess I'll have to cut my own threads after hand fitting it. It's just normal, have you never owned a 1911?
https://www.forwardcontrolsdesign.com/OPF-G-RMR_p_224.htmlThe product page literally says "this should not be considered a drop in part" and LITERALLY HAS A PICTURE OF THE PLATE NOT FULLY SEATED ON THE SLIDE just to drive the point home. OP is a dumbass who can't read and can't use context clues.
>>64274254lmao wtf? Guys, any tips how I can enlarge an American made plate? Maybe solder on some additional material?
>>64274254>Not to compare it with the Chinese one (which we all know is superior),This shouldn't surprise anyone at this point.At one time "Made in China" was a joke, but at this point outside of a few cottage industries, Chinks have more manufacturing experience and expertise than almost everyone else.Practically every major supply chain in the world sources from China now because they can't do it at home.Anybody remember the GBRS Hydra vs. the Chink clone? And the clone unironically was better machined and finished. Sad.
>>642742543. The pocket on the plate is too shallow, which doesnt allow the plate to sit flush. How do you get this wrong?>>64274285You need to work on your reading comprehension.
>>64274254At this point the solution for Americans seems to be to just go for the Glock pot metal standard plates that come from Europe. I mean what the fuck is even that?
>>64274254>It's this faggot againShould've got a COA Glock
>>64274254>needing an in 2015+10if your pistol doesn't have a direct mount you need to get a new gun
>>64274254I just realized, CHPWS is doing exactly what /k/ recommends. They handfit their shit lol
If the titanium plate was so good why arent you using it? Sounds like you got burned by chinks and are now coping with European parts.
>>64274348My pistol doesnt need some chinese junk to mount a dot.
>>64274328>>64274324Jokes on you, I just bought one.
https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/64180875/Here's the last thread of OP sperging the fuck out.
>>64274313>How do you get this wrong?easy, you just don't account for the endmill's corner radius/keep using the same endmill until it explodes as opposed to regularly checking it.As for why the blank wasn't an extruded part to begin with, who knows.Also it's not a pocket. It's a step.>>64274328and you expect the made-in-america direct mount to be accurate because...?are they perhaps assembled from parts made in CHYNA???
>>64274320there is another wei
HE MADE A 3RD THREAD!!! >HE MADE A 3RD THREAD!!!HE MADE A 3RD THREAD!!! >HE MADE A 3RD THREAD!!!!HE MADE A 3RD THREAD!!! >HE MADE A 3RD THREAD!!!!
>>64274347I’m using it. It’s on my other G47 with the Holosun 507Comp, and it’s excellent. I just thought I’d share my experiences with different American manufacturers to, maybe some fellow /k/ommandos might learn something.Unlike the junk they recommend in /arg/, where I could literally tear down 90% of the items in similar fashion i shit on these plates.
>>64274301Implessive...
>>64274392why alen't you using youl glolius chink plate?
>>64274254I love your threads man. This is what /k/ was always about. Some autist with too much disposable income going full holocaust on some company for doing something wrong 99% of people don’t even care about. It feels like 2014 again, before Trump. Thanks man, you are the gigachad.
>>64274285Can you read?
>>64274254You didn’t even answer the question faggot. Is it really titanium?
>>64274412How many rounds so far champ?
>>64274408Can't stop, won't stop.>>64274521I can't say for sure, because I don't have the tools necessary to test it. But It is heavier than the aluminum one, so that is usually an indicator for being Titanium. >>64274527None, I just got it today. The COA mounting solution is really neat.
>>64274254>/k/opeGo back to /pol/, you brown shit.
>makes yet another thread>still hasn't learned to read
>>64274544No I mean the gun with a chink plate.
>>64274574>muh nafogtfo turdie, sorry a bunch of fags doxxed a bunch od troons
>>64274254are you the same retard that doesn't know how to use a file? crazy >t.metal worker
>>64274279it literally has what size screws to use engraved onto the plate
>farming this shit to bump againall fields
>be illiterate retard>opt for plate instead of cutoutSad!
back again?
>buy pdp>choose optic>email walther>get sent correct plate for free>plate works>???>profit
>>64274254>zomg i bought a chinese product that's seemingly better than an american product i bought>this truly is the chinese century fellow bros
>>64274254Why do you even do this? I hate people who just waste money on items they are never going to use.
i know it's fun to rag on the chinese for liveleak video and their meme quality products from 15 years ago but guys, their rate of improvement has happened at such a neck-snapping speed that we are kind of trapped in a kill zone right nowif you don't believe me, look up whatever your favourite american industry is, look at how it's going today and then look up the chinese counterpartamerica is losing so rapidly that it's difficult to fathoma service economy can NEVER beat a manufacturing economy when it comes to making products - people need to get this through their heads
>>64277199and also for the people in the thread defending the american plate for having a disclaimer on the website saying that it needs to be modified because it won't fit properly from the factory, yeah that's because the factory literally doesn't know how to create a product that works out of the box there are no excusest. designs and engineers composite structures
>>64274668You don't greentext t. if you're talking about yourself.>t.retard
>>64274254So titanium pound for pound is stronger than typical steel, but it also weighs much less for the same size, so wouldnt a titanium plate have to be pretty thick to match AR500 plates?
>>64277282Man this has to be the best take of the thread. Here's your crown bud.
>>64277282Jesus man, what the fuck
>>64274254How many Glocks do you have?
>>64277788however many the state will allow him to use from their stockpile for his shilling attempts. the one in his first thread looked like it still had factory oil coating the slide.
>>64277805>>64274313case in point, this doesn't even look wiped down
>>64277248There's no rules on how to use greentext cause you newfaggot zoomers could never understand how to use it properly so anon can use it however they want
This misfitting plate is a facet of a bigger problem. The reason american cars do not sell well abroad is for the same reason this plate doesn't fit the gun out of the box. Americans are not good engineers and they are absolutely lazy when it comes to quality control and chosing good materials, an american will invariably chose the cheapest. Long term this gives american export products such a bad reputation that people simply wont consider them if they have alternatives.
wish the chinks would just sell us full guns at this point$100 AK's for everyone
>>64275180It definitely deserves 10 threads. China stronk.
>>64277877>>64277199>>64277212Woah,...Implessive...
>>64277850>There's no rules on how to use greentext cause you newfaggot zoomers could never understand how to use it properly so anon can use it however they wantive been here longer than you and know more than you. kill yourself you useless faggot.
>>64277248>waahhhhhh you arent using the color text the way i want waaaahhhhop litteraly cannot stop sucking cock
why do these dog shit threads always turn into bizarre worshipping of chink manufacturing and the decline of western civilization?
>>64274399Third way: afterm*rket slide
>>64274254You know, you'll get a much better reception and stop attracting the schizo's if you don't throw in such obvious /int/ baiting. People are smart enough to look up the manufacturers themselves, posting like this makes it obvious what your agenda is. In your first thread you literally could had gone "I have a plate by FCD and they were so shit they acknowledge they can't even guarantee whether it fits or not and give a 50-50 chance because they're retards who don't understand reverse engineering and unilateral tolerance, yet here's some chinkshit that works fine."
>>64277212I had a 5.5mm pin AK AR stock adapter made by literally Kalashnikov and it was rattly garbageI sold it and bought a similar Italian made one which fit like a glove, no duct tape or filing. Amazing how it works when people know their shit
