First trip out with my new PTR,

Ran 300 rnds of surplus (100 each of 3 different types) no problems at all!
2 alum. mags , 1 cetme mag, and  1 5 rnd mag. All worked great.

I was shooting from a kneeling position at 100yds and holding 4" groups.
(Will try some better ammo from a rest next trip.)

I didn't like the trigger creep, so I sent it to Bill Springfield for some of his magic.

Handguard looks cool and has threaded holes for rail attachment, but get "HOT" very fast.
(wish I had my old asbestos glove from my M2 kit)

Over all I really like it, just have to figure out where to get some better gloves.

Vist any welding supply distributor.  They will carry a full line of leather welding gloves starting at around $4.00 and up.  Probably they will have some larger heat reistant gloves for a higher price, but you will have a variety  to choose from to protect your hand from the hot forearm.
