T97.ca FTU initial impression

[Lobster_pot]

Got my FTU. Over the last few weeks I had grown to really like my t97 stock and wondered if I really wanted to chop it up. Well I must say I'm glad I did. It's awesome!! Install was easy. Had to grind a little off the top corners of the rear sight stanchion. Other than that easy as pie. It's a huge improvement to the rifle. It just makes me want the lower even more now. I just slammed a couple different optics on it to try shouldering it.
First is a sight mark Holosight and magnifier. It's the same height as eotech or other standard AR optics. Was hoping to use the magnification for coyote hunting. It feels the best for comfort and cheek weld. However it is bulky and heavy. Also the height over bore might be a huge problem.

Secondly is a trs-25 much more sleek and compact. Kinda what I hope to keep this rifle. However no magnification and I find I really have to squeeze the cheek weld down hard to get a good sight.

Probably the best way to go is a 1-4x scope. Got my eotech up for trade in the EE maybe I'll get lucky and pick up a scope to try.
If you have a t97 and don't have a FTU get one!!

No pics yet that I've seen. Coming soon according to M14.ca. They've hinted at a few things in their FTU thread.

Some one needs to make an improved trigger linkage take up some of the slop, just needs to be 3mm or so shorter

Looks like you dropped some rounds on your carpet. Might want to put those back into one of your 15 crates
You can use the knife to open said crates.
And I'd recommend wearing the gloves while opening the crates with your knife to avoid splinters.

Always love seeing crates of ammo piled high reminds of my own room. Nice looking setup man.

I'm almost tempted to buy a $300 accessory for a gun I'll have to sell in under a year.

My 'different' setup. Not sure yet if I'll keep it this way.

It's very nice. How does it work with the T97? Is the PEPR mount too high?
