66- Wadi Precision: Make the AR180 Gas System Great Again

While there has been some promising news out of Taccom on what the Canadian shooter can expect out of the AR180s that most of use shoot these days, it's been no secret that a lot of end users have been left with bad tastes in their mouth to this date. Mainly due to the gas system that is being utilized by the manufacturers. Enter Connor, the man behind "Wadi Precision". Connor knew that this was an issue that needed to be corrected and decided to undertake the task of creating a gas piston that wouldn't break and leave Canadian AR180 users with a carbine that work and can be depended on.

The episode starts off with Connor and Pat talking about the news out of Taccom this year with the announcement of both the WK180 Gen 3 and the R18 Mk3. Connor and Pat both give their opinions on the updated platforms and what they expect to see out of them. From their the conversation turns to Connor talking about some products that he will be releasing for the Type 81 platform. A railed dust cover that will allow end users to mount optics in a more ergonomic place on their rifle. This leads to both of them singing the praises of the Type 81 platform and how it is turning out to be their favourite platform.

From their, the two talk about the main purpose of the episode, which is the aftermarket piston he is designing for the WK180 and the MCR platforms. Connor talks about the trail and error process that he has undergone to make a product that he believes will satisfy the end user. He also goes in depth on the process he has created to select beta testers to provide feedback and the criteria that he has set to get as much accurate information from the testers. Connor then talks about the plan to turn his business from a project in his basement to a full time job that he'll be running on his property. The biggest point of pride being that everything will be done in house, while hopefully being able to employee friends.

Next up, the two talk about their experiences when it comes to buying night vision and how Connor has already utilized it for hunting wild boars in Alberta. The two share stories about wild boars in Canada, with Connor sharing his first experience with the pest.
