I’m gunna start with the one I have and see how it goes Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I could be wrong. I assume less mess moving back means you need less push moving it back forward. But no biggie to swap it out if needed. I think you should do a binary trigger too. Lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LolSo I actually spoke to someone over at JP yesterday he said buffet weight and a adjustable gas block is more important than the spring. He was saying the light weight carrier with a heavy buffer will give you a great mid weight system.He said before sighting in to fire the weapon with no hand guard and adjust the gas block till the bolt just locks back when empty Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truth is with all the parts laid out it could easily be done in about 30 min. It was a very cool experience and I have a much better idea of how the gun truly worksThe one thing is it is not as tasty as charcuterieSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreeGuy Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Nice work man, rig looks good. Put some holes in some paper, would ya !!??? Also curious to see what she weighs on a scale Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 So I got to camp this evening, i took a few shots just to tune the gas block. I have to say she kicks like a 22lr, can’t wait to mount the scope in the morning and see how she shoots. I’m hoping she is a real shooter Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 I’d say she’s a tack driver this is me walking her in to center on my first string of shots at a target. Using the cheapest ammo I can find on a led sled that is broken and wobbly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) What weight ammo? The 75g fmj AE cheap stuff? Edited February 29, 2020 by moog5050 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
