hey guys, I've heard people talk about using a dummy switch instead of covering the selector area when replacing the stock on their m305/m14s... anyone know where these can be bought?
 
I've got a growing pile of connector rods , these can be added for that full authentic look. Takes some mcgyverin but done right it looks like the real deal. I have'nt ordered a dummy kit in a while but last one I did order also came from brownells.

Here's my Norc with OEM M14 selector & connector rod added to the stock for aesthetics

Will a connecting rod work on a norc receiver? I know you need a oprod with a cut out in it for the connector to hook in. Any one with a full auto M14 care to show how it all fits together??? :D
 
Well, the dummy kit just screws into the stock and fits fine with the chinese action. The connector arm is another story.
You need a oprod with the usgi cutout.
You need to shave material from an area at the front of the connector. The usgi receiver has a groove that the norc doesn't.
The connector arm has a small tab on the back at the mid point. This must be removed.
- the connector arm needs the back end cut off then tig welded to the dummy kit.
- comparing the two units prior to cutting will allow you to cut in the right location.

That's the best way I can explain marrying a usgi connector arm to a dummy kit like the "hawk's dummy kit"

When I made my dummy selector I took a die grinder and made the connector cut out on my Norc op rod.........The Gun-Koted it. It worked and fit prefectly..........

Dummy Selector before modifying the op rod.........
