JR Carbine - Gun, Ammo or Me? *BIG PICS*

[KRJ]

Ok I got to the gun early, here's the buffer tube and guts.

As an aside, has anyone gotten the 'fixed' buttstock off the tube, or do people just replace it if going with an aftermarket buttstock.

Just drill a small hole in the other side and use a small punch to push the pin out.

I used a very small bit to drill thru the center of the pin, then flipped it over and drilled it out with a bit the same o.d. As the pin

ok, the gun runs better , but with the cartidges so down loaded, i can see them dropping! so placed a call to jrc this am, they took my info and are sending an "upgrade kit" to me directly....will let you know how it works..

Do you know what's in the kit? I'm aware of the brass buffer but have also heard rumours of a new bolt. Just curious.... They close at 4:30 so I missed them today but will give them a call tomorrow. Thanks for posting this.

UPDATE:
Called JRC - they are also shipping a kit. Kit is comprised of a new magwell, a machines 'buffer tube extension' (that goes on the back of the receiver), new heavy brass buffer and bumpers. It hope my UBR still mounts up ok to the 'buffer tube extension', we'll see how it goes. I will post for sure once I've installed (sounds like it might be a couple of weeks before this stuff gets mailed out).
