Norinco m305a from SFRC

Not unreasonable given it's the weekend. Anyone who can commit to helping you, who isn't just a cashier or phone clerk, is likely off work until Monday morning.
 
We told you there is no one here to deal with the issue until Monday and that someone would call you back then.

On Monday someone will call you and get the issue sorted out for you.

Ryan


Oh I already did 2hrs ago and they said they can’t help me till Monday pretty much
 
It's amaz8ng the device we text and send email on can also make telephone calls....

The people that handle that aren't in the store today. We told him it would be dealt with on Monday. We also emailed him back on the same day he sent us an email.

The OP said himself he's new to buying firearms. It happens. People learn through experience and it looks like you're doing everything reasonably Ryan.

I mean no disrespect if it came out in a negative way I honestly didn’t receive an email or anything that day and lost my composure a little since it’s not like I can actually walk into the store being so far away from it I just don’t really know how to go about it I honestly appreciate the help just being a first rifle buy and having go in this direction wasn’t planned or anything I legitimately am just treading around to find out what to do I’ll tread more carefully next time

Here is my slightly modded m305a. I had the same issue with the mags i ran a file on the inside if the mag lips widened them slightly fixed the issue. Also a comparison of the short mag vs long. Solid little rifle. Sold my .308 version to a coworker


Where did you purchase those steel 5rd mags if you don’t mind me asking? And with that casm mount it sets your sight higher than the irons so do you use any type of cheek riser? Muzzle break wise I thought it didn’t have a threaded barrel end and it was held on compression almost?
That thing looks great
 
Had the same problem with the mags. I stripped the gun, cleaned it and lubed it. I cleaned the mags too and after a few rounds, no more problem. Just had to break it in i guess.
 
It’s all good. We’ll get you sorted out on Monday...probably in the afternoon.

You don't see many dealers posting 4 messages on this website due to a disgruntled customer . it shows they care . I'm sure it will be taken care of . I bought a brand new gun a year ago or so and had problems with it from the get go . more than you paid for the rifle . it's working now . the store took care of it .
 
Oh I know their good people otherwise I wouldn’t have bought 3 firearms from them the last 1 and a half to 2 months I’m just being over excited building up my own collection of firearms

I've had those mags for a bit now use them in my sks'd, can't recall where I got them from probably doing barter trades over time, as for a cheek riser I just have a fat head lol and yes the barrel is threaded very easy to remove the front sight I bought mine from colonel mustard https://colonelmustard.ca/collections/frontpage/products/the-hammerhead-jrc-muzzle-brake-9mm-1-2-x-28-thread
 
Well finally heard back from Ryan and sfrc today on the rifle and from the sounds of good news I can’t wait I just gotta shave down every mag I get to get a good fit but it will work, I’m happy I asked at least I honestly wouldn’t have knew where to start on it
 
Your gun came back today and it was fixed within 20 minutes. When I called you back the second time I said that was not the case. You had a chunk of styrofoam caught in the bolt latch that was making it jam up into the bolt. You also changed out the op rod which wasn’t mentioned. I’m just posting in case you misunderstood.

On a side note to anyone sending in a gun for warranty, please install all the original parts. It makes it difficult to diagnose something when there are aftermarket parts in it that may not be fitted right. As well please clean out all of the grease and packing materials.

Ya that’s my fault sorry
 
Hmmm so now it’s time to look for those illusive 5 round mags I guess

I have 5 of those 5 rounders lol and gave them a decent workout today in my m305a and sks-d. If you find a source be sure to post it up ( after you get your fill of course)
