    Wow. $500 more than their direct competitor.

    JR-Carbine (with full length top rail) is only $900.

    How does their .45 work?

    You buy the JR .45 and compare it too my T.D.

    At least mine will work


    AND... I am So happy I bought the Railed handguard version.

    The plain shroud is o.k But once you get your hands on the railed version and slap on a few items.
    It is a No Brainer which one is better

    Reloaders just want their ammo to go bang, Handloaders want all their rounds through the same hole.

    Agreed but as per my previous post in this thread, there is a design flaw on the 'original' 10mm recoil buffer. TD admits this and will rectify but I don't think failure in a unit with the original design should be considered a fluke - don't know if you're implying that but it kinda sounds that way. I do for the record think the problem should be taken in stride and that the gun is still a great little fun gun .

    I'm glad I just got my order in for a 45 at the old price. I would have bought a 9mm at the old price as well but just couldn't swallow the difference between other similar guns. The thureon simply looks like a better and more intelligently built rifle all around. The simplicity of tear down is great. The JR is a pain to clean... Big time.

    I agree and i just sended a email to Thureon for instruction concerning both my 10mm, one got many rounds tru it the other one only 10 but both are flawless to this day... JP.

    In case you want to check things out yourself - the old style buffer assembly consisted of an AR style buffer with a weighted cylinder in front of it. The new buffer I supposed to have a piece on both forward and aft ends of the recoil spring. Apparently even though some of the other calibres use the 'old' style buffer, it's only been a problem with the 10's. I noticed mine as it had some issues feeding some jhp's. I thought maybe it was just dirty and cleaned it. After cleaning I noticed it was still pretty gritty. I didn't notice the bump on the inside of the receiver (felt kinda stupid not noticing during cleaning). I am now anxiously awaiting the replacement buffer (I hate having guns in disrepair lol).

    If you do take off the stock be careful as the weighted block is under spring tension and the pin that blocks it from jumping out is on the receiver as opposed to the stock.

    Cheers!
