A little update

 

[JRW (QOR)]

I think the black is better. Did you paint it? If so which paint?

I didn't paint anything Just added Aimpoint.

The Aimpoint "looks" better/cleaner than the Eotech imo.
How does it line up with the irons and does the it hold zero with the top rail?

I don't know yet. Haven't tried it at the range.

Does that mag conversion give you last shot bolt hold open? Are your mags dropping freely? Very nice rig.

MAgwell adapter FAIL

Well, plastic is ####, ladies and gentlemen... It fell apart today. Not very happy about it, sent email to Wolverine.

I have to answer this question in past tense. Since it broke, but It was dropping mags freely and was holding bolt open.

Wolverine is sending me a replacement! Great service, as usual. But I don't have confidence in CSA adapter anymore.

 

[X-man]

Great pictures. Too bad they didn't make the adapter out of steel. It should be a relatively easy part to stamp out, fold and hit with a TIG.

Exactly my thoughts. Maybe one day someone with a proper equipment will do it. BTW, are there any METAL mags for 5.56 version?

 

[saskcop]

Isn't Wolverine having B&T make them another model of adaptor that is supposed to be metal?

Yes, but I am not THAT thrilled about they way it looks

I am sticking with the original mags. Once a guy gets a few of them then you are set. The only real advantage of using AR mags, etc. is that they can be changed faster and are more easily available.

The real advantage of using AR mags is ability to use 10 round LAR mags and when coupled - have 20 rounds.

....There's no advantage to using AR mags when this happens(just kidding!)
I hope everything works out for you.
