   Thanks ggllggll...Picked it up today. Your right the trigger is very sweet and light. Now how to customize it........ Figure to put a rail on the buttom so I could add a bipod and a forearm handle on it. I have seen pictures where the handle is taken off and a short SL8 rail is put on the top. Maybe machine some vent holes in the thing. This is my next project. www.wildgoosearmory.com I put the link in the AR15 general group also |

Yea I know he is my Hero when it comes to the M17 Most of the stuff I do will be due to his designs. Don't know about the front sight base on the barrel though. Just don't look right. There was also a guy who put pictures of his on the site. He had the SL8 short rail set-up. I can't find it now but hope he sees this post. I think he posted in the Bushmaster Industry Forum...Got to look again. I found him..... He is HK-Dude |
Congrats you were the only guy that realized it look like a Dick with balls....LOL I thought for sure someone else would see it, but not to many people read my posts or answer them...I guess I am a out cast for some reason. Anyway I went and shot it. Got scared because my first 20 shots were all over the place. I mean no place in a group. Then I start looking and the Flash hider is lose and the barrel is moving all over the place. Tighten it down and I am .75-1 MOA off a ransom rest @ 100 yds. Done in a tunnel so no wind to deal with. Now time to start chopping and drilling. |
Your posts are so complete they need no follow-up from me! As for the penis references, I hadn't made that association...mine's quite accurate w/o an ACOG.

The thing works great like stated, but I can't get the Bolt hold open to work with any mags. Posted in Trouble shooting and Industry also asking what might be wrong. Cleaned the Gas tube piston and Carrier/Bolt Assy. Tried 20 different mags
It's a Aim Point on top. I did put a ACOG but it is way to high and no good cheek position on the stock. |
If its anything like the Steyr AUG, its damn near impossible to get a good hand grip on the thing with a Beta-C drum in the way. |

Actually it isn't bad. You rest the C-mag on your arm and it works chin behind the mag. What it needs is a good sight system which it will have soon. Also when I put the bottom rail on and use a bipod a c-mag will be no problem. I just put it on there to keep the gun sitting up to photograph it, but id did shoot it with the c-mag to see how it worked. |
