got a .223 to go with my .308


Recommended Posts

Here's a pic of my rifle - I bought it last week and have done the following to it:

 

replaced the gas piston with Tapco's stainless made in the US version

camo painted the stock

ordered some 30 round surefire mags and a sling to go with

I had it out to the range for a short sight in and test - shoots like a saiga - 2" at 100 yards in spite of the trigger which is h..e...a..v...y -- this was with PMP ammo. The sights were very near "on" - only a couple inches to the right at 50 yards which made zeroing rather easy.

 

My 308 is pistol grip converted - which was easy and allowed the instal of a Red Star trigger which is sweet! I kinda wanted to just leave this .223 in it's original configuration as it's fully functional and I like the feel of it. But the trigger may push me to convert this one as well.

 

Anybody have a fix for the linked trigger on these? I just want it to lighten a bit and break cleanly...

Well, no replies - but I did do a little reseach myself and see that Dinzag offers an improved trigger - but for the money, I'd just do a conversion and get a G-2 which I can tune myself. I've already got a kvar buttstock so the fcg and pg/nut/screw wouldn;t cost but $60 shipped..

 

Any other ideas?

Indy, every time I see that avatar I crack up :osama:

Now, you have to give credit where it's due. It's a picture of me, after I had brain surgery. No idea where Indy got it - he must have bribed the nurses...
