I can't believe how safe this super safety is
Around 650-700 saves per minute. I think that makes it the safest safety ever safed.😮 seems like once it's developed, it should be added to every ar10 in existence....for everybody's safety of course.
I think Joe Biden should mandate super safeties in all guns
Safety 3rd, position 😉
That is not a safety! He just made the full auto switch that military rifles have. You psychopaths are going way too far, this is why we need to ban these guns entirely because people like you all turn them into full auto assault rifles....
😂😂😂😂
The visual quality of the gun is nuts- we’re almost at the level of it looking like actual factory products
Well, the upper is factory.
@@HoffmanTacticaland call me crazy but I think your orca upper is as aesthetically pleasing as any facility built upper. Love what you do and how you do it!
Like how Thicc it looks 🥰
@@huntersharddrive6951 The Orca upper reminds me of the futuristic gun era of the XM8 and even has some Steyr AUG vibes
homeboy just made a modern day BAR and I love it
Not quite. Needs to work out some kinks
The BAR shot .30-06 lmao
That would be the HCAR brother
Hoffman is out here keeping our founding fathers happy and shining a beam of hope over the 2A community! Stay safe, my friend! You're a very important asset to the whole 2A landscape!
I know its great to see with more and more laws going after specific groups of people they can more easily defend themselves. Shits pdope.
I like how the Barrett part manages to give it a dash of FAL flavor.
The Armalite and KAC SR25 standard has the angled receiver in the rear, rather than the curved LR308 receiver. And another company that has that SR25 standard receiver is "Diamondback. They have excellent prebuilt uppers with BCG for under five hundo. They even have a 20" 6.5creed with SS barrel, that is crazy accurate, again under five. So if you wanted to jump over and do "the other AR10" standard receivers-- that is the one to get IMO. Crazy cheap, but excellent quality; plus you can dip your toes into the 6.5creed waters.. and readily shoot at 1000m plus. Hopefully you can read this, because youtube loves to delete my comments. :(
Nutnfancy has a video on the 6.5creed I'm talking about; you can jump 3/4 through the video and see where he shows a bunch of targets and see how accurate it is. Diamondback makes their own barrels. They are actually a CNC company that makes all kinds of boat parts, etc. They just do rifles as a side hobby and I really like their stuff personally. I've had their DB10 for years now.
@@calholli Run what you run. DB is absolutely not duty tier. Not even close. Tons of QC issues. PSA has a history of the same,but they’re coming out with better stuff thankfully and have a near M110 clone coming in their Sabre line. One of the rare times I’ll consider getting a PSA. DB is BCA tier trash. Better than nothing? Sure. Reliable in a SHTF situation? Probably not. Which is what these guns are made for. The fact an Aero Upper was used in this video and had issues shows how far below the acceptable QC threshold has gone. And that unfortunate since I own some Aero stuff. And loved them. They’ve gone downhill lately. You want “excellence” you have to pay for it. LWRC,KAC,BCM,DD,LMT,Noveske,IWI,Radian,hell even Colt,makes way,way better stuff and have multiple price points. Out of newer AR brands that are good enough I’d give SOLGW a nod,and for budget AndroCorp.
@@brianrich7828 lol.. You can drink that brand koolaid all you want. I'm good with all that. I have two safes full of rifles and have had some of the fancy brands-- and I literally sold them all and got my money back; it wasn't worth the high premium- for very little gains. The diminishing returns hit very early in price. DB did have a big issue when they rolled out their little pistol years ago, and I'm not too familiar with their AR15's. But their DB10's are a level above all that. I've literally never even seen a video of anyone talking bad about the DB10's; and I've never had any issues with mine. I do agree that they should drill and pin the gas block -- so I did it myself. It's not really gassed for suppressor, but I don't' care about that anyway. You can build a db10 for well under Eight hundred. I advise you do it, shoot it for a bit and give it a good shakedown; I bet you would change your mind. and if not- I see them sell for fourteen all the time on gunbroker; People don't seem to realize how cheap you can get the parts if you build it yourself. Their rifles are crazy accurate too. You can trash them all you want, but until you actually buy one and test it properly- no one is ever going to take your opinion seriously. Your religious belief in the marketing hype is a sickness.
@@brianrich7828 Your "QC" argument are only an issue for when you first get the rifle going. Once you hammer on it and shoot the crap out of it and get everything dialed in and fully vetted-- then your "QC" worries just become false beliefs. At that point, you're worried about a probability that didn't' happen. At what point do you actually base your beliefs on facts, logic and data- rather than hype and clout? You should think about that; Ask yourself what it would actually take for you to change your mind.. especially given that you have zero personal experience with one. DB10's are great rifles; at least mine is.
I love my DB10, swapped the 16” barrel out for a 20” faxon. Runs great and groups lovely at 500 yards, also for those who have trouble finding handguards its 1-7/8” 16tpi barrel nut with dpms high handguard
More super safety videos please! Really interested in the development of that. I also follow on the odd sea so looking forward to updates! Awesome work!
Ya, i want to see a dedicated video even as little as tuning it to perfection! 🙂
Hell yes! A super safety on a .308! I'm in! I've been wanting to get a .308 platform for a while, and now that one is available that is "super-safe" I gotta get one. I'll definitely be downloading the file for this guy and once I get a decent upper, will try it out. Thank you so much for producing such amazing products. You, sir, are a scholar and a gentleman
@@jackrobinson9277 oh absolutely. I got the orca files the minute I saw it existed. And yeah, I'm all about downloading these files asap before the gov't comes in and tries to shut the host site down or whatever they can do to screw us over. so I save files for stuff even if I have no plans to build. Just to save for posterity. juuuuust in case...
We really are lucky to have Tim doing what he does. We are in a great era of gun making.
I think it would still be in the spirt of diy 3d printing if you got a micro cnc and made the safety bits out of metal, or had them metal printed.
Already have ;)
There are a lot of small cnc machines that can work aluminum and they only cost a few hundred dollars. If we can make aluminum parts for the orca I think a lot of heat issues can be fixed. I am very excited for the Super Safety and Orca
Will the 0% ghost Gunner be the future? 💭
@@Eduardo_Espinoza A Ghost Gunner cost ~$3000. A 3-D printer large enough to print an LR 308 costs $250 and a CNC machine that can (slowly) mill aluminum costs about $400.
@@pauvilreutov2975 Not really, aluminium needs to be some alloys to stand the pressures and fatigues of shooting, you can use it no problem to low load bearing parts but you can use 3D printed parts as well. At the moment you can machine steel really slowly and with a lot chattering but it's doable.
I'm always weary of the safety not being safe enough. I think the super safety will be key to increasing recreational shooting
This is impressing me as much as, Ian's fully paid for full-auto AR with drums mags too; this just needs a 3D printed monolithic suppressor as well ;).
a 3d printed suppressor would not last longer than 10 shots and would also probably be illegal
3d printed suppressors already exist, Have for a few years now. And to print a suppressor all you need to be legal is to do the proper paperwork and pay the $200 extortion fee to the government. So not illegal.
I just got some ammo for my lr308 and I tested the feeding and I’m glad to hear that my assumption that it was the mag was possible correct
Did you have feeding issues?
I can’t wait for the super duper safety honestly!
Don’t hassle the Hoff!
This build surprised me. The 308 has more kick but less kick its softer, more like a push.... and that stock is friggen amazing. The tpu is great and cheek riser fits my face perfectly. Cant wait to do the orca, already bought the kit.
Thank you for explaining the failure points. It makes us all better for it ! Keep doing you!
Dayyyum. You've come such a long way dude. This is some next level shit. Cant wait to see how this develops. Ps your making me want a 308 so bad, my wallet hates you hahaha
This guy out here shooting name brand soda. We got a moneybags here. Lol
The rifle is picky. Doesn't like the flavor of cheap soda.
Love what you’re doing kid !!!! But Keep your dog safe
Yeah.. It's not a matter of if, but when.. Unless he has his SOT.. which he might.
Bro might be a fashion icon
The geometry of the 308 platform is tough to navigate with this project
This is the dream.
Being able to 3D print multiple RPKs, set em up with Ras Pi and AI GPU for targeting. A base with some pivots. And you got a portal style defense turret. With remote in capabilites.
Correct.
@@HoffmanTactical you're the mad lad this world needs, thank you for your engineering and academic contributions.
Definitely wild how my childhood fantasies of portal turrets. Zoid autamata companions. And everyday bulletproof objects. Are coming closer and closer to reality.
I know this video is a few months old - but is there any updates or ETA on a public release for it? or does the AR15 one work with it now?
When will the super safety version of the normal AR lower be released?
Awesome how u share your attempts and successes. People ask me how I know so much about construction, tell them because I've done everything wrong ten times first.
Building a. 300 win mag and SAFETY SWITCH sounds Very Very expensive and will wear out my arm reloading 300wm food for my desire for Excitement. I think something is telling me it will be exciting right before its not exciting anymore. 😕
Love that safety switch idea. You've come a long way Sir from your beginning on youtube Congratulations and keep the video's coming !
Luv watching you from the great state of Wyoming!
Awesome video. I can't wait to see where this goes with the 308. I actually had a lot of fun with your super safety too. Need more experience with it.
You look like an inventor from the 1920s.
Very nice;)
Ballsy posting this. I got mad respect for what you do
Wish only lowers were regulated here too 😭
Me too.
Where is here? Canada?
Love the consistency and passion you have , fellow to fellow designer your work speaks volume💯🔥
.243,ultra high velocity, sooper safe-T.......BA shredder becomes-The FABAS❤
love everything you do for us all man. keep up the good work.
I’m curious : without the bipod and the huge magazine, and with a shorter barrel, how would it compare, weight wise, with a Ruger SFAR ?
Not sure what the SFAR weighs, but I think it's a better though out design. LR-308 can be pretty light, but the longer bolt carrier will make it a little heavier.
😢it's beautiful...
THIS MAN IS A GENIUS
That 50 round mag is heavy when full!! LOL Good work out
I'd like to see billions of super safety's all over this Great Nation!!! Lord knows, We all need a bit of super safety in our tools! My hat is off to this man!!!
Sledgehammer games be like:
Write that down ! Write that down !!
This is what happens when you give a homeschooler a license to solid works.
Great video, but did hoffman really just go and by 2L for $2.50/ea instead of Dollar Tree 'Stars and Stripes' brand 3L for $1.20/ea?
Bcuz 'stars and stripes' screams 'murica. just like a 3D printed 308.
Hello, I just started watching a few of your videos. In particular the one on annealing nylon. Just an idea for you, have you thought about pulling a vacuum on the part while immersed in oil. I think it would pull out the air from the part and allow the oil to really penetrate the part. And maybe try a silicon based oil. Just a random thought. Good videos I like the work that you do.
loving what you been doing maqn!
"I still see a can of coke"
**is a bottle of pepsi**
Coke, Pepsi, all targets to me.
I've had short-stroking on my Orca as well, and feeding issues from a steel mag.
If your running a fixed gas block, a lighter buffer may help. Could also be a misaligned gas block, they are tricky to get right.
A reset trigger for the ar10? I love it!!! We have almost returned to BAR because the guberment is gey. Love the work you're doing
Were the super safety’s going to be universal or are they going to be for your designs only? You mentioned the the 308 version, is there going to be a 9mm version or is that the same as the standard like in your orca?
Universal. AR-15 only for now.
I have thought about this every day thrice daily. It is so cool. I really hope you get the kinks figured out w the super safety!
Bro's production quality is best I've seen
Fukin love it! Lol... my boy went full auto and jua about broke down trying to explain himself. The "super safety" needs a redesign. This music feels like ive enteted a really bizarre realm. Trex long lost brother.
Good stuff, though for me, i am strictly a two position safety kind of guy. I am getting old and not as spry as to get up quickly from prone shooting. To compensate, i have gone to crew served systems like a belt fed AR platform with spade grips and butterfly trigger system. Shooting with a Maxim tripod means you sit astride one leg on a little saddle. Very little felt recoil, exceedingly comfortable shooting.
I really want to do such a system!
@@HoffmanTactical defCad has come out with a belt fed 9 mm system i would like to try. There is an AR belt system out there and used ones are about six grand. I found out.
@@HoffmanTacticalbrother we NEED you to do such a system😂
When are you going to visit Brandon Herrera and Demo ranch. I feel like they would have fun with the orca and other stuff lol
Single shot bolt action upper, nice sniper rifle
Yes. I want to get one of those.
Your a really smart kid ,guy. Way beyond my old ass m. God bless you stay safe
Awesome work as always 👍🏽
What led you to use PA-6 over PM PLA pro, PLA+, or Carbon Fiber Nylon filaments?
Also, I'd be interested in content comparing the Orca lowers to other AR lower designs in the community.
PA6 is Nylon. I use it over PLA Pro because of the improved temp resistance. Orca lower is unique to the Orca, and only works with the Orca upper. So not too much to compare.
Push Button Safety
Nice little detail
Question?
About the malfunction, was it the trigger group that was malfunctioning?
-Disconnector, maybe the sear?
About that bolt carrier group is it possible to put a sight glass on it?
-Then put a camera on it, then slow it down?
What about a gas piston ORCA?
About that ABS that is a cheap plastic meant for sewage pipe or cheap power tools.
Malfunction was due to the Super Safety.
Well, the LR308; i know there are 3D files out there with wrong dimensions of tge internal parts. What i suggest you should do is use the m16 and m4 blueprints to work out dimensions that do work.
About the printing to vacuum casting that i did mention before; there is this guy that is going to check it out: Paul's Garage. He said he already had bought a vacuum pump for it. Parts should be more durable after that.
Greetings,
Jeff
Tell me about it! It took a long time to stabilize the dimensions.
@@HoffmanTactical Yeah, I was working on an AR10 LR308, have not touched it since a long time now because of some other stuff. But i had to make up a firing pin, and extractor, and i will have to make up the bolt release because the one provided by "Rifle Connection" looks like they just ported the file from "World of Guns" game or something; the dimensions don't make sense.
What has gotten me great results is to check the part that fits in the M16, copy the page of the part from the pdf file and put it in paint, check the tolerances, and apply the same tolerances on the AR10. It worked like a charm. I got a great barrel extension to fit the barrel, and the tolerances the same as the M16. Of course you will have to do a test run afterwards, but its your best bet. I don't think the AR10 LR308 is much bigger that the tolerances are to be considered tight if the M16 ones are used.
The barrel I constructed with the aid of "hatchers notebook" and a barrel profile from a retailer. 11 degree crown, same thread as AR10 barrels are usually sold with. I'm going off topic a bit, here. But yeah, the dimensions..
If you really don't know a solution, you could just use a caliper and a micrometer and buy the inner parts of the LR308 and use those as a reference. But so you know, not all parts out there are exactly mill spec and up to spec. Using the blueprints will get the best results.
Greetings,
Jeff
The way he explains everything It shouldn't be no flaws
a lot of idiots on here that wanna ask a lot of stupid questions, just let the man do what he does and when hes ready to release stuff or talk about things he will. theres no reason to give this guy an extra attention
Is this the budget TREX arms?
Gentlemen, we're 3 or 5 years ago to be able to print fully automatic mgs at home, the funniest thing to me is we're going to do it just because it's fun.
we already have that
I'm just waiting for him to say innit or govnah
Based barefoot man
Any chance of an Orca in .308?
If Lucas and Ian/gun Jesus had an illegitimate son this would be him 👌🏽
More like Stoner and Browning
The super safety keeps you super safe from bad guys
Finally printed the lr308 super lower not that long ago and put a BCA rear-charging .22-250 upper on it. BCA is BCA and I'm having cycling problems with the (second, first one wouldn't even chamber) upper, but I'm overall happy with the lower. I had to print it on a 45 degree angle on the print bed and forgot to align the infill, but it still came out nice on the first try. The new pistol grip design is amazing and I would suggest anyone using an old design print a new one. Also the TPU hose clamp cover is amazing
I do have one complaint; you increased the size of the buffer tower quite a bit, which I assume was required to deal with the extra recoil of the typical .308. This makes the typical milspec style charging handle difficult to grab. And the buffer spring on the lr308 is quite a bit stiffer, at least the one you sold me is. My scope makes this problem even worse. I'm wondering if you have a recommendation for a charging handle, and I think you should consider selling one in your kits or separately on your store
The charging is an issue with mil-spec handles, and it's not just the printed lower, any LR-308 with a scope can be hard. I always run an extended charging handle, the Breek Warhammer is the best IMO. I will try to slim down the tower some on the next version.
Since you bought BCA, you shoulda gotten a side charger! I printed a Hoffman LR308 and used a side charging BCA upper and it runs great!
I'll have a look at Breek once I get the upper running smoothly. A $75 charging handle is kinda a tough pill to swallow, but all the decent ones I've seen are fairly expensive. I don't think I could cut myself on the hose clamp, but it sure feels like that's what's going to happen
I didn't go with side charging because the lack of a dust cover is a complete deal killer given the conditions I have to work in
@@trapperjohn7571 Yes, Breeks are a bit better. Around fifty I think.
@@trapperjohn7571 Strike Industries makes a decent extended charging handle and you pick them up for around $35 bucks if you do a quick search on everybody's favorite search engine lol. You can get them in most any color you choose, along with ambi safety, take down pins, mag release, mag catch, or anything else so everything matches nicely! Just figured I'd share another option.
You must be doing good business. Everything is out of stock in the store😂❤
I really think you need a mint Model A Ford to round out the ensemble.
I feal the same.
I understand & prefer dangerous freedom over tyranny however, You are more brave then I.
I was hoping to see if he wore shoes to the store!
So was that really a “ malfunction “ with the SS when it when giggle or is that the idea 👀
IF SO WHEN TO EXPECT THAT IT❤🖤
I literally keep minimum three of your lowers printed, and kept to the side at all times just in case…
The "active reset" is a feature, not a bug. The malfunction was when it stopped going brrrrrrrr and went back to single shot, and also a couple of failure to feed issues, as he said.
Hey man. Excellent content! What filament you recommend now? Still CF-Nylon? I need something with excellent layer adhesion. I'm trying to make a vertical foregrip handle for a 12g shotgon. The one I made out of PLA failed at the picatinny rail at a layer point after only 2 shots.
Yes. Polymaker PA6-CF, COEX GF Nylon, and recently I've had good result with the Bambu PET-CF.
@@HoffmanTactical awesome! Thanks for the much needed content.
It's more like the AR15's daddy.. Because the AR10 was created first; the AR15 was simply a scaled-down version of it that came later.
This isn't an ar10, it's an lr308. Which is a scaled up version of the ar15 that's a scaled down version of the real ar10. The whole thing is kinda a giant clusterfuck
Good summery. Really is messed up.
This gets even weirder when you start looking at the Canadian AR-10 based rifles which are based on the older models for legal reasons
@@trapperjohn7571 yeah.. Not to mention the early era of M14 magazine compatible AR10's :) .. Cluster, it is
@Hoffman Tactical - Any updates on the .308 rework?
Amazing that he also invented LSD
Art meets science. 👌
Dude will never grow out of his awkward phase 😂
Please no.
On HT only the SS is available for ar15. When will the files be uploaded for ar10/lr308?
So very super safe i love it
Hoffman the true ideal of a high-T Sigma Male
He sounding a lot like Lucas from TREX ARMS
Whitch Headset do you use for ear protection. Is it Earmor M32 mod3?
Just looking for recommendations.
It's the Peltor Comtac.
The stock is awesome!
Is the active trigger not an frt? And if so when can we get it?
I may have missed it in video but what printer is he using?
Any chance of the .308 superlower being remixed to fit on to a armalite cut upper receiver??
Possibly.
Where do you buy the parts for the active trigger? is there anything I could put in quotes on google to find it?
Not yet. It's not out yet.
@@HoffmanTactical to be clear, this is an FRT, right?
@@dougshellusn no it's an active trigger
@@HoffmanTactical At least you have plans to release the design! I'm so proud of the work you've done for 2A hoffman! Right now I use a CBT trigger, But I'd like to test yours some day too!
@@bushgaming7114 I searched "active trigger ar15" and found no relevant results so I am assuming this is kind of like calling mac11 parts "wind chimes"
its like the amish trex arms
About the orca hand guard failure.
Given that one did not have ideal filament dryness and ambient environmental protection. Would it be worth the effort with the time and difficulty to anneal that part, either as a standard procedure or if the individual printing encounters the same issue?
The handguard in this video was annealed, but it does not improve layer adhesion. The process is mostly to reduce creep.
There are other youtube channels that have done research on wet filament. Basically the water flashes to steam at the nozzle and disrupts the plastic layer being printed and causes all sorts of printing issues. Anything from layer adhesion, thin layers, inconsistent layer thickness, stringing, etc. A filament dryer is highly recommended for anything with carbon fiber.
How reliable are the super safety setups? Ive seen a couple videos where they jam a lot qith FTFs and FTEs
Very reliable. But if set up wrong, you can have plenty of problems.
Hoffman’s got the heavies.
Hello! Thank you for the work done, tell me, is it possible to print the barrel, and what materials are best to use?
You should make a belt-fed as safe as possible!
I'd love to.
What is the difference between the FRT and the SS trigger?
I wanna get into 3d printing things like these whats a good 3d printer that won’t break the budget?
My friend, use a toaster oven to dry your nylon, and rig it to print from it.
Heating the Nylon while a print is my challenge now. Drying it is pretty easy.
Go baby go 🔥🇺🇸😎
Are you making the same safey selector switch design for your AR15 lower?
That's what it is designed for, this is a modification.
@@HoffmanTactical gotcha, Thanks for the quick reply. Can't wait for the release. Ps fuck coca-cola haha
I have to know, can the 3D printed lower work with a 12 gauge upper
If it fits.
