Ya I bet you guys are getting sick of me asking DSA Questions right now But I have one more I need to know.

What is the difference between the type 1 and type 2 receiver that DSA has on the STG58A? I have not seen what they look like or anything. I'd also like to know is one better then the other. Thanks for the help you guy's!!

I hope to get the order out on Friday or Monday then I'll post pix of my new baby on this site.

THe difference in the receivers is the lightening cuts--


Go here:

The Type one at the top has a straight horizontal lightening cut on the left side of the receiver in the picture (under where it says DS Arms...), and a straight vertical cut where the barrel screws in.

The Type two below it has a radiused cut at the left and another at the right where the barrel screws in.

I personally like the Type 2 looks.

BTW--the Type 3 has no lightening cuts (the current IMBEL receivers are Type 3).

So there is no real difference but the look right?

Correct--

If DSA stops making Type 2 receivers, then they may become more "rare", but not enought to be worth a significant premium.
