what he said. Police, soldiers and criminals use "weapons" law abiding citizens use firearms.
Hi CGNers! Im looking to put together a 7.62x51 battle rifle. I was looking at the Norc 305's on Marstar. I like to investigate a weapon befor I invest. I havnt been able to find any reviews for the 305's using the search menu. Anyways i was hoping that I could get some feedback on the weapons performance. I understand she isnt gonna stack up to an american m14, but i dont have the cash to spare currently for somthing like a Springfield M1A1, or the Kel Tec RFB. Pictures would really float my boat too. Thnx

To get back to your original question.......hehe
I'd recommend you buy the newest Norc M305 you can get your hands on, buy a couple of spare magazines (SFRC has 'em right now, as does Marstar and other board sponsors), buy some 150 gr ammo, and shoot it!!!
I use one for a hunting rifle and it will shoot 1.5 MOA with a 3x9 scope (if I do my part)and Remington Express Core-Lokt 150 gr ammo. This is bone stock with the exception of the scope and mount.
I'm sending to M14Doctor (as soon as I get the new reg cert, I lost the old one hunting last year) for some tweaking to improve the accuracy (just 'cause I can, NOT because I need to).
Also, attending one of Hungry's clinics if he's in your area is a great idea. He's got lots of tips and tricks he'll demonstrate to make your M305 a better rifle.
PS...Welcome to the additction!
Just applied to join the EE. I will check this wea...I mean firearm out. I would really like the marstar aluminum stock for it. It looks tacticool. Does anyone know why marstar doesnt have anymore of them? Have they just recently run out of these stocks? Supply not meeting the demand? Maybe I will find one in the EE who knows. Also, can you get mil-spec surplus 7.62x51? I have looked but couldnt find any.
Lot's of new Poly 305s avaliable for around $429.00-$449.00 plus tax and shipping i believe at various supporting dealers with the links at the top of the page.
And on the weapon thing, if you have been trained as a Soldier, it's hard not to call it anything else. I still have to correct myself and say "Firearm", or at least Rifle everytime i type or speak.
Anyone here(Army) remember getting bashed if we called our weapon/rifle a "Gun" and had to walk around with our hand between our legs holding our FN in the other saying,"This is my Rifle, this is my gun, this is for killing, this is for fun.
Training is hard to break, and i overlook the mistake. It's only terminology
P.S Enjoy the Nork M-14!!![]()
