gfochu 1 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Hello All, I am tricking out my S-12. I want some input about some accesories that I've seen recently.I started modding my gun and ran into a problem with the MD-20 drum, it has to be rocked forward so far that my forearm grip is in the way. My grip has to stay where it is,(for comfort) so I decided to do away with the drum and get the JTE Magwell. Now, Carolina Shooters Supply has a part that holds the bolt open after the last round is fired; simular to AR's. I like this idea but I was about to buy the JTE Surefire Magwell.... Will these parts work together? And, would the "LRBHO" make the JTE magwell idea kinda obsolete? Thanks For the input Guys Gabe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zambidis 90 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 And, would the "LRBHO" make the JTE magwell idea kinda obsolete? No, not at all. I think they complement each other (assuming they work together; I have no clue if they do). A LRBHO would facilitate "emergency reloads" when the gun is shot empty. It does nothing to help with a tactical reload. Many people prefer not to shoot the gun to empty when they can. I see mag well, reshaped bolt, and a LRBHO as being products that all work well together and each offer an added value even in the presence of the others. You might try a stubby fore grip (or an AFG) to give clearance for the drum. Personally I prefer a magwell to my drum anyways. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gfochu 1 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Well, I just ordered all of it so I'll find out if they work together. I hope I hope I hope.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
topmaul 42 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 (edited) My personal problem is that I have a lot of magazines of various mfr, including a number of OEM 8s and I just hate to mangle them. So I'm going to install the last round bolt lock device and see how that runs. I'm just not confident everyting is going to work together. I have a pretty fast Rock and Lock reload system. Perhaps not as fast as the mag well but still pretty good and it gives me a solid reload. Another point of view, if the shooter does not mind dropping mags with a round or two still in it, the magazine well is the ticket and the LRBHO might just serve to gum up the works.

gfochu 1 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 (edited) For me, the LRBHO would be my signal to reload, I have never been good or praticed to count multiple shots quickly. I guess the key is practice. It would be nice to have a bolt close button. Does the LRBHO also allow you to disengage the bolt? Edited March 18, 2011 by Gabe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gfochu 1 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 (edited) This is what I want. Notice the bolt release! Crap! I don't think what I ordered does this. Edited March 18, 2011 by Gabe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slostang 80 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 This is what I want. Notice the bolt release! Crap! I don't think what I ordered does this. I have that release on my gun. Love it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Mike meant Levi Strauss. Whatever.... he makes some high quality gear that runs like nobody's business. +1 for Levi Stratus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
