Oh, that's just a pre-production prototype Riptide FGC-9 MKII bolt that will drop right in to your existing FGC-9 MKII. Yep, just pull out the original ejector and you're good to go.
3D-printed holsters for OEM and printed Glock-style frames are just about ready for release. The files will be sailing the high seas over on The Gatalog.
More successful testing of our machined FGC-9 MKII Ejectors. At this point, all tests have been 100% successful and we plan to start production this week!

Looking forward to what's next! 👀

Somebody asked for a 3D printed jig to bend the printed mag feed lips. You got it!
I'm getting 0.003" or better from nominal and 0.001" repeatability with them.
Using the 3D printed jig, you can use a vice, arbor press, or even vice grips in a pinch to bend the feed lips.

Printers are now too fast to worry about resealing the bags. Right now the bottleneck is getting the bag open so we have to do what needs to be done.
Our goal is to provide you with a rear rail that will simply drop in and work. These are laser cut, tumbled, deburred, bent, bend-kinks removed, critical dimensions CNC machined (rail width, tab, and holes), and finally tumbled again.
The 3D Print General does not deserve this. Please peruse his links and support him if you can. If you are new to 3D printing I highly recommend his book regarding 3D printing failures. I have been 3D printing for 4 years and still refer to it from time to time.
While I know we should never rely on YouTube, this is a big financial hit to me. Roughly $1,500 - $2,000 per month is now gone. Which is my entire house payment.
I don't like begging, but if you guys buy anything in the near future, please check out my links:

Rice Cutta brings up a good point! If you are running a Riptide Rails Buffer Tube Adapter on your FGC-9, you definitely want the buffer spring spacer!

Here is the cleaned up JStark1809 article. It is still a little challenging to read, but it is much better than before. Source article has been included, as well.
Moving forward, all FGC-9 Buffer Tube Adapters will be compatible with our upcoming FGC-9 MKII Enhanced Bolt. You know...for those of you who wish to continue running a buffer tube.
These counterbores are clearance for the rear of the ejector rod. But why are there two? 🧐
First 17 rounds through a Menendez Mag v3!
Last round didn't hold open, as this follower was modified for a different slide lock than the one used in this pistol.
Big thanks to my good friend, Wes, for taking the time and ammo to do all of the initial live fire testing.
Prototyping the new Railblock for the DDXX.2 rear rails.
Oh, and we have some DD17.2 and DD19.2 kits in stock. Inventory is limited, but more to come tomorrow.

FGC-9 MKII Ejectors are ready for testing! Production will start as soon as we get feedback.
We need one, maybe two more people to test. Please reach out and let us know if you have a reliable FGC-9 MKII and are able to test for us.
