Went to Element Range today. Took my 1903A3. Got hits at 300 and 400 yds. Iron sights. Probably just luck because I can barely see the steel targets. They need to paint them a florescent color then I know I can hit them. Man that .30-06 kicks like a mule. Don’t remember it kicking so much.
This was the law in California, it was no big deal. I felt better because the firearm was not in my name anymore. New owner had to register in his name. My thoughts anyway
Update today.
I put the Upper on my A2 Lower(rifle stock/buffer) NO issues with short stroking. Ejecting patterns at 3-4 o’clock. I started with PPU 5.56, then PPU .223 and Federal .223. Glad I didn’t have to sent it back . The upper I got off Gunbroker was from AR-15Parts.com out of Sherman,Tx
Yes, next range trip I’m taking an extra bolt, sweep away brass left over. Someone had a M249, there was scores of brass and links all over. Luckily the .223 ammo I was using was well polished. That Czech made Scropion .223 shot real nice.
I was hoping it wasn’t a gas issue. Before I send it back, I’m going to try another lower. And lube the BCG better.
The Spike lower has a standard carbine buffer.
Much appreciated.
I bought a new complete upper off Gunbroker. It is a new 16in heavy bbl.
I attached it to a Spikes lower that hasn’t given me any problems whatsoever.
Threw on a LPVO, cleaned the bore, added a few drops of oil and went to Element Range to sight it In. Sighting in took less than 10 rds at 36...
Has anyone bought a gun on Gunbroker by making a reasonable offer on a fixed price firearm? I’m looking at a S&W 4006TSW. It’s been there at least 3 months. seller appears to be a dealer, not an individual.
Just curious
