mrmackc Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Thanks for the fixing thangie Toolindie guy! I got the USGI one. The picture came from Numerich. Like the later GI ones the chamber brush ratchet is black plastic, which tend to break fairly easily. I also have several GI M1 Garand 3006 combo tools they are sturdy all steel chamber brushes but they don't ratchet, I haven't found that to be a problem.

Not much to see, just a boyds stock. I will probably inlet and bed it in the future. BARREL, MEDIUM WEIGHT LRB/SACO: 22", not chrome lined, 1-12 twist, chrome moly, parkerized finish, short chamber. Perfect reproduction of the classic Saco-Lowel national match barrel. Made in USA for LRB by Criterion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Really really sweet. Look forward to hearing what it will do on the range. What optics are you thinking of? Edited February 9, 2017 by Sisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking for a huge 50mm bell hanging out there. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) 98Z recommends Primary Arms highly, and I picked up a red dot there a few years ago. They have a 1x6 variable with lighted recticle and a BDC grid for 308/5.56 that I am planning on down the line. Got to pay off a few things first. Currently have a cheaper 1x6 I got a deal on and I like the magnification levels. My current one is a first focal plane and the Primary is a second focal plane, which makes it a bit more usable at low power. My cross hairs disappear at 1X! http://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arms-1-6x-scope-patented-acss-308-reticle-advanced-combined-sighting-system-paps1-6x Edited February 9, 2017 by Sisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) ^^^ Exact same scope I just put on the .338 Fed AR. So far, I really like it, and it's the same quality as the other PA scopes I've got - excellent. Leaving to sight it in in a few more hours. I think it would be a great addition to the M1A.

m1911 Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 I've been through a LOT of firearms over the past several decades.... For hand-guns NOTHING has come close to my many (Wilson) 1911-.45-Autos. But NOTHING makes me smile like my (LRB) M14's Rifles. I love everything about them....especially the simplicity, reliability, and ruggedness. I have another one coming next week! I just bought a pair of Schmidt & Bender 10x42-PM-II Fixed Power Scopes i'll be trying soon. (Scope in bottom pic is not mine) These are older pics, but will post more as soon with new TNVC Cheek-Risers, and Scopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) Nice, nice nice 1911. I am just getting to know mine. Just have to compete with my son for it at the range. As you can see above, Toolndie just got an LRB. I am happy with my Springfield Armory. Edited February 13, 2017 by Sisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I haven't got to a trust level with quick detach mounts, but a lot of people swear the LaRue ones actually work quite well.

Toolndie7 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Ended up going with a Vortex viper PST 2.5-10x32 scope. Retails for $1k but as its currently being discontinued I was able to get a new one for $599 shipped. I figured with their lifetime warranty it was worth it. Once its in hand I will measure for clearance and order a LaRue quick detach mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Every thing I hear about those Vipers is good. Look forward to a range report. I am going to field strip mine this weekend and use a little kickapoo joy juice on appropriate places Edited March 24, 2017 by Sisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
