I like to drop by and see what’s up every week or so but looks like the place has been spammed to death.

Decided I needed an MP5A3. Picked up a PTR 9ct, US made MP5 clone and SBRed it. Took only 16 business days with Form 1 E File. Added an all steel used German A3 stock from 1980. Roller locks are sweet to shoot!

Bought a “well used” genuine HK MP5A3 collapsible stock from HK Parts for my newly SBRed PTR 9ct. Looks old but works perfect.

Picked up a new range toy, PTR 9ct, which is an HK MP5 clone in 9mm. Already sent in an Efile Form 1 so I can put on a collapsible stock to give it the MP5A3 look.

I had to add these two targets. I bought a single box of Eley Match .22 ammo for $19.95 to see if I could get better performance at 200 yards. The left target below was shot with my CZ 455 Tacticool and Nightforce F1 3.5 to 15 scope. The right target was shot with the Win 52 and Unertl 14 power scope from the previous post. Black bull is 1” and outer ring is 2.25”. Not bad for a gun that’s over 80 years old!

Here is my Win 52 with Unertl 14 power scope mounted and ready to shoot. Below are my first four 5 shot groups at 50 yards with Norma Match .22 LR ammo.

Got an old Winchester 52 .22 Target rifle made in 1935 from my Stepfather. Gun shoots great with peep sights but my old eyes can’t do the gun justice so I bought a Unertl 14 power scope to make it look vintage. Still waiting on new scope blocks because this scope uses the Unertl Posa mounts. I’m learning a bunch about old rifles and scopes.

Google JBM Ballistics. Many of the phone apps use the same engine. Put in your info and print out a hard copy. I have Ballastic AE for my phone but I always have a hard copy of the basic info for my load in my rifle bag. Phone app is handy because you can put in actual conditions in the field.

I used 210M primers until they became hard to find. The last few years I've used 210 primers, they seem to work exactly the same.

I've had this conversation several times with Robert. He is a very small shop (1 man with some part time help) and has a limited amount of time and money to invest in parts and guns. He was disappointed that the bolts sold so slowly. He cannot afford to put thousands of dollars into inventory that will not sell in a reasonable amount of time. If a larger company that wanted to stock Saiga bolts decided to buy a bunch he might be willing to make a batch. As for his decision to produce his own shotgun design, I guess since its his company, he gets to make the decisions.

As of now Robert is swamped building new guns and dosen't plan on making any new Saiga bolts. If someone wanted to order 50 bolts he might consider building them.

I have a call in to Robert to see if bolts will be available soon.

Bolts are available on the website, randrtargets.com.

For a super quiet rifle, I bought a CZ 455 Tacticool. With suppressor and Federal Gold Metal subs it is super quiet and is fairly accurate out to 200 yards. It's stupid fun to shoot!

I shared your post to an open division facebook group. Hopefully that catches some interest among your key market demo.
Thanks!

I would go stainless because of less wear and tear on the guns finish. But, I carry both black and stainless, so as long as it is comfortable, and it will go bang when I pull the trigger, don't really care.
The M&Ps are nitrided stainless.
Best of both worlds!

I have not had much contact with Robert lately, it’s probably best to call him directly at 503-551-7283.
