Hello all,

A couple of weeks back Dlask Arms was advertising selling of a couple M14's. I contacted them as I thought it was a good deal and secured one of the rifles. When I got it i checked it all out. First was a saftey check. #### it saftey on, no fire. Safety off, fire. Hold down trigger, #### it, release... no fire the trigger had already fallen :eek:. So I stripped it right down and found out it needed more tension on the trigger group. Was fixed easy with this chassis. Next I looked at the op rod guide, it was loose so I peened the barrel and re-installed just like Hungry showed (did I mention it also came with a Nm guide rod!). Next the gas cylinder was loose, easily fixed by flipping the lock. Finally I had to fill in a part of the chassis with JB weld so the guide rod pin would not slide out. Did that by making a "dam" out of cardboard and filling. Good Saturday project then it was off to the range.

Here is the picture they posted.

Well i finally got it out to the range to test it out.

From what I have read the scope is genuine Trijicon.

All and all I'm pretty pleased with the gun it is heavy but will probably be more comfortable to carry with a good two point adjustable sling. Hope slay some yotes!
 
So is the TROY SASS chassis that you and I have! Did you have to rethread the barrel for the flash hidder?
