I’ve Never Had Any Issues With The 8.6 With Coefficient Ammo & Changing Out Buffer. Appreciate You. Keep It Coming.

You guys are stepping up your game. Nice review

[@mwmag]

Thanks James. We're trying to make our production better every time. Thanks for watching.

I wrote up the same build right before I saw this video. Still gonna build it. Great review

[@mwmag]

Hoping it works out for you and would love to hear about anything you find. Once this gun gets working it is going to be an awesome beast for sure! Thanks for watching!

The ejection pattern certainly does look erratic, makes me wonder just how consistent that Gorilla ammunition is round to round.

[@mwmag]

Not at all right. We still feel it's about 75% on the ammo, but Faxon dropped the ball, making it for supersonic yet not adding a gas system. We're actually adding one this week and should have a follow-up soon. Good to hear from you again, DarkStar.

Thanks Roy. Hope you found them helpful. And thanks for watching.

i do wonder if the Q Boombox has it figured out or if it has similar issues

[@robertjackson1407]

Thank you 😊

Our pleasure Robert. Thanks for watching.

In the “ process “ of building this on the AR-10 platform with can. This round is definitely a great combination of low recoil and heavy projectile, with surprising accuracy.

Seen this going for mid 600

[@mwmag]

Wow. That's a pretty good price. I just wish it was more reliable.

[@dallasweber7692]

My Bad. I Use A Bolt Action Chassis In 8.6 Blackout. My Buffer & Spring Changes I Did Was To My Four Wilson Combat In .300 Hammer. I’m Getting Ditching The 8.6’s Because The .300 Hammer Shames The 8.6 Blackout In So Many Areas. Keep It Coming. However I Have SF Operators That Believes These Faxons 8.6 Will Go Away For Good & Stay Away.

I had issues with gorilla ammo too. Even their 300 blackout I had 50/50 that had bad primers and wouldn’t even fire. I won’t be using gorilla anymore after buying their 8.6 and 300 BO... not impressed. Nice packaging, nice people, but performance wasn’t what I was expecting for the price.

[@dallasweber7692]

Specifically The FIX 8.6 Folding Stock. No Issues WHATSOEVER.

Badmouthing Faxon Firearms because you choose shit ammo makes no sense to me.
