Foxtrot Mike Products does not support import magazines besides OEM Glock magazines

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support import magazines besides OEM Glock magazines.  We recommend Magpul and OEM Glock magazines only.

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support Aluminum Cased ammo

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support Aluminum Cased ammo.  Blow backs have a much higher pressure spike in the chamber than a handgun.  Using Aluminum cased ammo in a blow back PCC is dangerous and will void the lifetime warranty of an Foxtrot Mike Products Upper Receiver.

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support Spikes Glock style lower receivers

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support Spikes Glock style lower receivers.  The LRBHO has changed several times, and requires consumers to modify the Foxtrot Mike Products upper, to make room for the Spikes LRBHO.

The Foxtrot Mike Products upper is cut to the Colt mil-spec, therefore we have no plans to deviate from that.  Modifying your Foxtrot Mike Products Upper to accommodate a Spikes Tactical Glock style lower will void the lifetime warranty on our PCC Uppers.

Consumers who wish to use Spikes Glock Lowers with FM Products PCC Uppers, may remove the lrbho and this will not void our lifetime warranty.

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support Stern Magwell Adapters

Foxtrot Mike Products does not support Stern Magwell Adapters as they require adjustments to work properly.  We only recommend Sylvan magwell adapters, as they require no modifications or adjustments to work properly.

buffer spring recommendations
We have one for sale as a kit on Brownells
We use a stainless steel music wire heavy duty .308 spring

 

recommendation for the buffer weight and spring to use with your 9mm upper

we suggest using a 6.5 oz buffer and a .308 recoil spring

Will standard carbine spring work with your heavy buffer in carbine buffer tube?
we recommend a .308 carbine spring for use with our heavy 9mm buffers
would you be able to recommend a buffer spring or would any .308 flat white buffer spring do?

a .308 carbine spring will work fine

Does the billet lower have a LRBHO?

It’s a YES on the LRBHO

foxtrot mike and stern defense fix - MIKE-9 sidecharger with mag block

a Stern AD9 adapter and a Foxtrot Mike Products MIKE-9 complete upper fitment issues between the two items:

“Directions of the stern block is to pull it down and set the screws.

Try installing the block after the upper is in place and bolt is in forward position before the magblock install. The block being too high is going to cause you to hit your mag catch because its being pushed up, hitting the ejector or feed ramp because its too high, tons of issues.”
