M305 short in stock anywhere?

[guyhockeyguy]

Does anyone know who has any M305 short in stock? Can't seem to find any…

Del Selin in Vernon has them listed in their EE ad.

They have QC issues, according to Marstar.

So the long is preferred? From everything I was researching I thought the short would be more sought after.

Do a search, last batch of short ones from CanAm had some issues.....KBOOMS, broken bolt lugs, etc.
The 2013 Marstar batch of long guns is probably the finest ones ever imported to date.

There were a few shorties with issues, then again there were a few M1A with issues too! We have never heard the whole story on the kabooms and Ardent has failed to come through on his promise to have the bolt metal analyzed. So we have a whole lot of nothing with no hard evidence. There was a barrel launch due to bad threads (IIRC) on the barrel.

My best advice, if your going to buy a shorty, buy it in person and take a thorough look at it before you do. If you buy sight unseen, make sure they have a warranty/return policy, have someone who knows the platform check it out when you recieve it

Other then a excessive headspace(like most pre 2013 marstar longs) my shorty had no problems. Lots of other shorties out there performing just fine.
