Are there any that are made of steel that are REASONABLY priced? I'm on my second tube(vltor 5 pos) on my latest ar project as the first that was on there, the end plate (also vltor) key ended up destroying the threads during castle nut tightening. The one that's on there now stripped the threads but to a lesser extent so I'm gonna stick with it. The picture is of the previous tube which is what came with the Sba3 brace.
I wasn't trying to tighten to milspec tightness (40 ft lbs!!!) more like 32 ft lbs. The TM for the m4 says 40 INCH lbs but that's retarded. That would mean 3 ft lbs and some change.
I am aware of the v7 tube but they'd have to pay me to buy that. Don't need a a match/3 gun level tube, just don't want to end up destroying anymore extension threads.
