I've been waiting and hesitating to buy an m305 for so long. I've been wanting an long barrel m305 for quite awhile, so when two weeks ago I got a notice in my email they were back in stock, at $450 i jumped on it, considering the price are expected to go up. Plus an another semiautomatic rifle in the hands of the public can't hurt, with all the reclassification happening .
It arrived at my door this morning and I've gotten it all cleaned up and It looks fantastic! I knew it came with two 5 round magazines, but it didn't think they would be 5/20 mags , the mag plates aren't welded to the mag body and no rivets, just a nice long follower arm. The side of the reciever is also stamped "socom 18" and the flash hider is not welded on and the bayonet lug is intact too! Overall the finish is very good! The barrel indexing looks good, but I'm no m305 guru!
I couldn't be happier! Props to canammo!
Only upgrade I have in mind right now is too put a beautiful wood stock in this baby!
Now for some crappy photos
