You should see him in person - hysterical. Constant deadpan flow between amazingly insightful commentary and ROTFLOL jokes & colorful descriptions.
How "late" is later? Mine are from the 2001-2002 years.
You just have to remember to maintain it. There’s a reason the service manual is over 300 pages.
That is so nice. I have one and after having it refinished in grey it looks brand new. I just don’t have a good enough reason to drag it out of the toybox enough.
Love the gas piston design.
Had a Mini 14. Thing would shoot anything and go bang every time. Couldn’t hit a basket ball at 50 yards with it though.
Exactly. It’s too bad the barrel doesn’t warp so you can track a running coyote without changing the sights. I think my barrel always drooped downward.
Maybe I should have suicidal targets that get closer as I shoot?
Some of that inaccuracy was the fault of the owners. A new owner would swap out the wooden stock for something really cool looking and not realize the screws on the gas block could only be tightened to 14 INCH pounds. Not Foot pounds. The barrel would get sqeezed and goodby simply bad accuracy to something truly horrible.
*Bang ping*
Never checked that. It was a “stock” stock, but didn’t check the screws.
Sold it for a wedding ring, and then bought an AR!~

No problem - eight dead bad guys i what — 10 seconds. Reload in 10; eight more bad guys; repeat until there are no more bad guys.
Clean her up; run a couple of patches through the barrel; a light coat of oil; a couple of more patches. Time for a beer. Wait for a new batch of bad guys who want to die.
