poor mans PSG1

[Dosing]

Heckler & Koch SL7 match conversion, sniper rifle from Jarzombeck. You can find more on the net, but interesting choice.

PSG-1 is very much prohibited is it not?

Yes. The stock SL7 on which this was based, though, was restricted. It had an 18" barrel.

Gotcha, i was hung up on the OP. "Better" because of our crappy laws, sure.

There was a run of non restricted models done by Century Arms back in the day 19 inch

Nice. Would love to find one of those.

I've only ever seen one of these at a gun show many years back. It would have came home with me had I had the funds in my pocket.

Hey Graham, there was one on the EE last year, I think buddy was asking $3.5k for it. Seems high, but in today’s market??

Yes today that would be a very reasonable price. The last one I saw (original restricted model) was at Wanstall's for about $2.5K a couple years ago.

Would go well with say, a P9S... ;-)

Perhaps you should have kept your P9S after all, G.

Anybody have an SL-7? I have a friend with one. One of the most finicky magazines I have ever used. Unreliable feed and fall out of the rifle when it is fired.

Something must be wrong with the rifle/magazine.

Biggest down side (other than the $ for spare magazine) is they like to dent the brass and chuck them way out...

could be, way back when I asked about it on here and trouble shot it and it really didn't get better

 

[sillymike]

Obviously missed that thread...
- I'm assuming he checked the inletting and the magazine latch?
- Does it occurs with a neutered standard capacity magazine? Of the 3 / 5 rds?

As long as the bolt (rollers) are somewhat clean and lightly oiled... it should digest pretty much anything.

Might've had the mag release bar installed backward. I remember having to watch a couple videos to get that part back together properly.

And because the NR SL7 was mentioned, this is my example, now in bad need of a new buffer pad.

 

[Donny Fenn1]

From memory it's a 2 round mag, and yes checked the rollers and the latch etc.

Yes I do regret that, and the VP70 believe it or not.
