Now I'm a happy camper

I took the GI out again tonight and put 60 more rounds thru it. I used 8 different mags and shot 230 ball, 250 LRN, and 185 +P GD HP's. Not one flaw. Everything fed and ejected perfectly. Well except the 2 rounds that hit me in the head. This GI doesn't put every round in my face like my last one did. I had the ejection port lowered and flared on it, to take care of the problem. If I don't have to do that with this one, then I won't. I like the classic look. I'm going to try some truncated rounds again next time out.

I'm also installing the new trigger and MSH tomorrow.

I almost bought a loaded model. It was $904. Not too bad really. It was the black stainless.

Re: Now I'm a happy camper

...wonder if the black would scratch off easily??? I like the looks of black but gotta have the rust resistancy of the stainless...

I heard that the finish doesn't hold up well at all. It is stainless so it's not like it'll rust when the black wears off. I too like the look.
