sniper, sorry I was asking if the bolt carrier is full auto or a semiauto one....

So what happens when the selector is pointing in the 12 o'clock position?

Skittles fall down from the sky.

Probably just goes past it and doesnt stay there.

 

[Westicle]

is it just me or is that picture wierd.... that is the full auto position, safe should be 9 oclock, fire 12 oclock and full suto 3 oclock....

 

[greentips]

If that's the problem, you just need to switch out the selector swtich.

 

[Westicle]

yeah but the fire marking is also inthe wrong position... and safe is not marked.

 

[greentips]

Safe is probably covered by the switch

 

[Westicle]

so you have to rotate the selector 180* in order to go from safe to fire.... does that not seem wierd to you for a "milspec" gun.....

 

[greentips]

It is kinda funky, but it can be easily fixed with a new selector.

 

[Nester]

Why am I not excited anymore

if it is so easy to fix then why did they use a non spec part to begin with considering the relative ease it would have been to manufacture the correct part ??

 

[WolFF]

LOL .

i was thinking the same thing...

i will wait and hear reports, im sure some nice cgn'er will give us a report. until then ........ im back to the drawing board.

The selector switch is strange, but easily swapped.

How do we know that the barrels are cold hammer forged? That's what I want to know, they state 1/7, but 1/9 showed up, how do we know that it's still cold hammer forged and what spec of steel is used 4140, 4150, CMV?

The FSB looks weird from the pic, looks too smooth, possibly cast?

ETA: Buffer tube looks to be commercial diameter, not "mil-spec". Barrels look to be blued, definately not "mil-spec". I was kind of interested in these, but probably not at the prices guessed at so far.

My gun switch should be on FIRE at all the time .... in fact I would take
SAFE out totally to be safe.... LOL ..... ......

FULL AUTO .... hmmmm ..... sounds good but perhaps NOT in Canada .... lol...

They do drive on the wrong side in England .... lol......

Are they chambered in .223REM or 5.56 NATO?

 

[Sniper22]

On the receiver only shows 5.56 ...... no 223 .....

 

[gadget]

On the receiver only shows 5.56 ...... no 223 .....

More interested in what the barrels have marked on them, receiver markings usually do not mean as much as the barrel markings, and can you confrim that the chamber is 5.56 NATO vs .223 Remington.
