I bought a SOCOM 1 and like it very much. The front Trijicon sight broke off on my first time out with it, but SA sent me out a replacement right away. Seems to run well on everything I have fed it so far. Muzzle flash not bad when using Aussie surplus but I get 4 foot fireballs using reloads with BLC2 powder. I would like to find a pistil grip stock and a load that does not singe the hair of everyone around me when fired.
