Re: SDTA DID IT...YHM ADAPTERS FOR FORM 1 Builders
I feel like they are going to make more than this first batch. My guess is they sell out pretty quickly. Having a QD mount on a form 1 used to be only for the guys who had expensive machines and the skill to run them. I know the solvent trap route doesn't get a lot of love because you are basically an assembler that drilled a couple holes. But I think it's a good thing that the form1 community is growing. Every person who has to buy a tax stamp is most likely a person who will vote for people that will work to remove suppressors from the NFA so I say welcome everyone who wants to play by the rules. Who knows maybe one day we'll get as ate up as the more experienced people on here buy some machines develop the skills and make our own epic creations of noise defeating muzzle devices.

Couldn't agree more. I see both sides of the coin here but like you said,... The more the marrier.

As someone who has made a form 1 QD can using the YHM mount, I'd pay $40 for it instead of making another.

Yeah I was trying to figure this out without a lathe it was going to be difficult. I was going to buy one of their thread protectors get a shoulder cut into it then get whatever I was going to use as a end piece bore a hole in it press in the thread protector, then weld it together. The draw back is I'm stuck using whatever material the thread protector is made of, which could be aluminum and may not have the longevity I want.mhidpa wrote:As someone who has made a form 1 QD can using the YHM mount, I'd pay $40 for it instead of making another.
Those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still.

My YHM thread protector is AL ... and I did the Acme threads on my form-1 .... I would have bought one of these, had they been available

But.... I acquired a great education in the process of making mine. That's the story I keep telling myself.
