I haven't seen one. Slidefire does sell this though. http://www.slidefire.com/products/rifles/bfr-556a It's a weird bastardized version of a standard Colt upper, machined out pretty roughly. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

So has anyone done this with a Shrike yet? I haven't seen one. Slidefire does sell this though. http://www.slidefire.com/products/rifles/bfr-556a It's a weird bastardized version of a standard Colt upper, machined out pretty roughly. Wow they got it to work! The important thing about that (BFR-556) is that it uses standard m27 disintegrating links. I believe Slide Fire either works with or purchased the rights to the Valkyrie Armament LLC which used propitiatory links (modified m27 links) and required feed tabs. Here is some video of the Valkyrie Armament Belt fed unit. |

It's all copied from the old ciener conversion kits, which themselves are an adaptation from the M-16/ AR-10 kits. View Quote I got that. There must be something I am missing because they (Valkyrie and later Slidefire) had to use modified m-27 links which apparently has been fixed. The original M-16 belt fed alterations used regular, unaltered m-27 links didn't it? With that said, what do you think about this? Take a look at the SSAR-15®MOD STOCK . They moved the "switch" to the bottom of the pistol grip. I wonder if it would still work if you "chopped off" the stock and used only the grip and then put on your own stock (this is what I am thinking about). |

Inspired by this thread, I took the plunge and got a slidefire. Installed it on my 6920.
Quick question though. It seemed a bit stiff, so I oiled the buffer tube. How easily should it slide? |

Super sized extended take down pin fabricated and installed. Code name : Bump Charger
This will allow you to easily bump and activate the trigger with one hand. It leaves your other hand free to stabilize and aim. Better pics and AAR coming early next week. |

Got my second M60 bipod in recently. It is definitely a little different than mine. I think they came out of different factories. I am quite sure both are authentic though. They are way too rugged to be airsoft stuff.
Anyway, the bipod leg blades are a bit narrower when collapsed on the new ones compared to my original. So much so that it won't wok with my MOE foregrip. That would have drastically changed how I built my gun had I gotten a new bipod to start with. |

These would look the same next to each other. I think the specs are loose because the differences in geometry wouldn't matter on a real M60. |

Anybody tried a bumpfire grip? Wondering if this would work on a 9mm pistol? https://youtu.be/b3Ggjw4Murk View Quote I'm not certain any exist in the wild yet. I think they will probably work OK, but won't be as good as the whole stock for keeping the gun under control. |

A buddy shot my old chronograph, so I just received my new Magnetospeed V3. I note in the manual that it can calculate a rate of fire for you. I knew it could grab the projectile speeds from automatic weapons, but calculating the ROF is a nice plus (although obvious, easy enough to do). I'll give it a try the next time I'm out with the bump-Lewis.

The first test of the prototype extended takedown pin was a huge success. I had to modify it a bit and now it can be mounted on either side. It is really controllable one handed and the big pin makes it bounce off your thumb easily.
I am going to contact a buddy of mine who is a FFL/SOT and see what his opinion is before I go forward on making any more. |
