Avoiding barrel droop — our engineering
Barrel droop is avoided with a resistance-fit mortise-and-tenon and tight geometric control. We make the tenon slightly oversized and hold its diameter uniform along the length so the barrel seats solidly in the receiver. The shoulder between the .920" contour and the tenon is machined as a clean step (not a ramp) so the barrel sits flush and fully supported. When correctly fitted, v-block screws should be snug (~10 in-lb) — enough to secure the barrel without distorting alignment.
Installation & break-in tips
• Inspect: Remove paint or debris from the receiver mortise before installation. • Lubricate: Apply a light anti-seize compound to the tenon to ease installation. • Seat: Start the tenon into the mortise, align the extractor slot, then gently tap the rear of the receiver with a rubber mallet until seated. • Torque: Set v-block screws to ~10 in-lb — snug, not crushing. • Break-in: Run two magazines before evaluating groups; repeat after changing ammunition brands. • Cleaning: Keep the chamber clean; avoid over-scrubbing the bore. Typical bore-clean interval: ~500 rounds (varies by ammo).
