    Hey thanks guys. I'm going to take it out tomorrow for a trial shoost.

    I think the mags were over engineered.

    Agreed that the sling is useless, have never had any issues with the mags though

    The 20-5 shot Norc mags are solid. They don't have that stupid large cut.
    Listen, and understand. That Liberal is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse- only fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until your guns are gone.

    I never even tried them. I do bench shooting so I don't care for the long mags.

    Get off the bench and learn to shoot prone, sitting, kneeling and standing. You will find it far more interesting than bench shooting with this type of rifle!

    LOL! I tried shooting standing last time at the range and I'm so shaky now the rifle was weaving all over the place. I'll stick with bench thanks.

    Come out on the 14th of May to the service rifle shoot. We will show you some tricks on how to shoot accurately out to 300m with iron sights. Email me at armtrain@gmail.com and I'll forward you some information on a basic shooting skills course that is available.

    Shooting is no fun if you can't hit what your aiming at and this basic course has been highly recommended to others by those whom have taken it!

    Mine has done the same thing since I got it just under a year ago with less than 1000 rds through it. I installed an upgrade extractor spring kit...didn't help. First shot fired after the spring was installed.....fresh after a good cleaning....fail to eject. Next step for me is a replacement extractor or full bolt/bolt upgrade kit. Haven't decided how much I want to invest in a $600 Chinese AR. Might just sell it and get a good ole American made AR.....in hind site knowing what I know now I probably would have bought the S&W M&P 15 sport for not to much more than what I paid for the CQ A and been guaranteed to have a flawless AR. Just my $.02.

    So with the extractor mod, I take then the bolt is Milspec?
    I noticed the buffer/butt extension is wider.
    My plan is however, to keep it as is, no aftermarket parts until necessary. The only thing I might do is mount a scope.
