Question: these really look like they do best with smaller mags. Who makes a top quality 10 round magazine?
I'm going to buy a SCR to replace my Mini-14. |

I'm going to buy a SCR to replace my Mini-14. Magpul makes their 3rd gen in 10 rounds. Promag & Thermold both make a flush-fit, which won't be flush fit on this but will be the shortest available. The Thermold has a lip, so oddly a short steel ProMag might look the best here. Unlikely to have feed issues from a 10 round mag. |

The original bbl had a cap to vent the blank gasses to propel the can - and the cap could be unscrewed, apparently, and then live ammo could be fired through the short bbl. One of the bump-fire folks welded his cap on, which presumably solves the issue. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MRW:
I'm going to buy a SCR to replace my Mini-14. I almost bought a Mini-14 right before Ares announced the SCR. I wanted a rifle to keep in Washington DC and they're NY-esque in their strict AWB. Unless someone really likes the style of the Mini-14, the SCR seems better basically across the board. One of the few ways I could see the Mini-14 getting an edge over the SCR is if any states (like NY or CA) start banning detachable mags entirely, even without pistol grip. That would leave people with top-load capable rifles (or gimmicks like the FAB-10) so the Mini-14 could easily work with a fixed mag and an added stripper-guide for the bolt. That'd wash the SCR out of whatever state, but would be a huge window of opportunity for the M14, M1, Mini-14, VZ58, SKS, and other top-loadable semi-auto rifles. |

I used to carry 3 revolvers in a briefcase, w/ ammo in a 2nd briefcase, on the subway downtown to the old range in the basement of NRA HQ. Any particular reason an AR can't be clip-loaded if enough Dremel is applied?

Once our kid gets off her ass and orders one. I'll have it hydro dipped in mossy oak . This way they can walk around their property without any snowflakes melting down. CA's kinds of weird when it comes to cosmetics on semi-auto's.

Think she is about done.
1-6 Vortex Razor II HD Still need to zero her at the range but the "lower" height Larue mount seems to be a good height. I did try the ultra low Larue rings were too low to allow mount.

Hows the cheek weld with the Sport stock and the low mount? I've got the MC stock and the Ultra low rings from Larue with a PA 1-4 scope for the time being, and I had to take a dremel to the power adjustment ring ridges to allow it to spin without contacting the upper. But the cheek weld is fantastic! haha

However when just pulling the gun up for quick acquisition the cheek rest feels very comfortable. I'll have to let you guys know once I get out to the range hopefully some time this week. On a side note before I knew there was a short stock version I was initially going to go for the Monte Carlo stock myself but then wanted to try and build the "shortest" legal length SCR I could. I dig your rail is it a 15? |

What are you guys paying for these lowers? No one locally sells them and even if they did being since I live in NJ I'd be raped anyway. There's a seller selling them on Gunbroker for $487 I'm wondering if that's a fair price?

But it can't hurt to say it again. I love the M1A scout look to these rifles, and I dont have to start another hoarding item of M1A mags or ammo. The Vltor rail helps to get that M1A look. Both pictures have a little shadow on the rifle, got any more you can post with different lighting? Again very awesome looking rifles, and I live in a free state. |

Put a selector switch on my SCR:
http://vid1292.photobucket.com/albums/b563/CarpNY/WP_20160318_10_47_29_Pro_zpsljn0vt2d.mp4 Not actually useful, since your thumb can't reach it and it also sticks into the trigger area in "Fire". However, it was fun to work on and shows that more than just stocks from Remington were borrowed. There is slot on the right side to attach the selector, but that side of the main body of the new safety sits slightly below the level of the receiver near the back of the hole. As such, it binds to the point of not moving. With a small extension, it might work. Certainly, someone could make a new piece that would work perfectly. |

Recoil system removed. 
Takedown pin detente spring. Also, screw at the top of the safety detente spring.

As such, it binds to the point of not moving. With a small extension, it might work. Certainly, someone could make a new piece that would work perfectly. Made some improvements: http://vid1292.photobucket.com/albums/b563/CarpNY/WP_20160322_12_55_48_Pro_zpsk89cn4j5.mp4 http://vid1292.photobucket.com/albums/b563/CarpNY/WP_20160322_12_52_40_Pro_zps5zgag2hz.mp4 (Note: the initial difficulty in the second video was due to my position while recording. It is actually very easy to engage/disengage.) Definitely a concept with some promise. http://i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b563/CarpNY/WP_20160318_09_50_21_Pro_zpsgtndzcul.jpg Takedown pin detente spring. Also, screw at the top of the safety detente spring. http://i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b563/CarpNY/WP_20160318_09_56_36_Pro_zpsvlmpl88f.jpg Factory crossbolt safety. So - if you can put a standard safety into an SCR, can you put the SCR's crossbolt safety into an AR, if you add some width on the sides? The BAD-ASS might allow you to reverse your selectors. Might have to tweak it a bit. |

Some cool guns in here but I have a question.
I got the SCR sortof as a truck/bug out bag gun. However, it cannot be assembled quickly/under stress as half the time I try and put it together, the tounge or whatever you want to call it (bolt tail) wedges in up high on the lower, not down onto the small buffer head. Anyone come up with a surefire way to prevent that from happening? I was wondering if you could magnetize the buffer or seomthing.... Its a bit big for a bag or takedown style gun if you can't assembly it quick and easy.... at that point better off with an SU16... any input/suggestions would be appreciated... |

Put the bolt carrier tail into the recoil buffer then pin the back, then the front. It seems to work for me. Pinning the front first can cause the problem that you pointed out. But no, it's not the fastest gun to reassemble. eta I just timed myself. I am a klutz and it took me three seconds. Not that bad. But the first time I did it I fumble fucked the tail and it took eight seconds! |

You could also install some extended take down pins, but yes, assemble back to front and that should solve your problem

It will never be as quick as an AR, but you can get quicker at it. I put the butt into my upper right thigh and hold the lower in my left hand, top-side up. I, then, put the upper in from the front, angled slightly down at the back. This ensures that the rat tail stays down and goes right into the concave end of the buffer. Once it's in place, I give the charging handle a 1/4 pull to make sure that everything is aligned (you know very quickly if it's not) and then push in the pins. It's all pretty quick. |
