    I used to think I didn't want any tactical type rifles..
    Now I'm going to be a guy who owns one of these, a stag-10, a tavor and a modern sporter. Thanks gun banners!

    Maybe drill out the blind hole where the buffer tube threads in and drill out the buffer tube and run a rod in that way?

    Reminds me of cleaning my 1022, which hardly gets cleaned cause it's a PITA.

    A simpler solution would be to buy an Otis cleaning kit or one of the other flexible rod kits out there.

    I think this is a great idea and I applaud SBI's efforts to minimize cost.
    It's not denial. I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

    I was thinking 9x19, but that'd be fun too.
    If you're going through hell, keep going.

    PCC variants of this will not be possible without a new barrel and bolt which fires from a locked breach. The action will not physically accept a blow back operated bolt form a 9mm AR15.

    Monday Update: We have a lower machined. This will confirm our lower geometry. Work has begun on the bolt carrier, and once some tools arrive work will begin on the upper.

    Here's a pic of the lower with a 3d printer upper:



    The lower is a bit rough and nothing has been deburred.

    If memory serves me right, you can actually get away with a 5.56x45 bolt face for 7.62x25.

    Or possibly a 7.62x39 bolt face?
