I have a Rapid Fire 51 clone that I had them do with a full 16" barrel. I love the gun and it shoots 100% reliable. I have done the SBR thing to a couple guns now and I think I am hooked. I keep entertaining thoughts of SBRing my 51 clone.
Will I need to tweek it to run after the barrel is shortened?
I have heard that this can be done by removing a few coils from the recoil spting, but when I first got the gun this had already been done...it fired fine, but wouldn't have enough force to strip the top round on a full mag...fine with 18, but 20 was no go....I put an un-cut 91 spring in it and now it is perfect.....just looking for input here.
I don't want to have a very cool looking (in my eyes anyway) gun that doesn't work for shit.
Added.....pretty much the same question with my 16" barreled 53 clone also.
