unforgiven Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 Mind if I ask why ? Why not a single round in a 5 rd. mag ? I've only seen those for service rifle competion AR 15's and M1 Garands.
hollywood Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Looking to use longer than mag length with my reloads. Don't know why the pics are upsidedown, but the first is what I currently load to and the second is touching the lands. Both with 175 smk. If I try berger vld the oal would be even longer touching the lands. Edited February 27, 2016 by hollywood
unforgiven Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 I see what you'r doing now brother.Might just have to sacrifice a mag and make one up.
hollywood Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Posted February 27, 2016 I'm ok with sacrificeing a mag. I've seen them for the small platform and dpms but nothing for RRA.
unforgiven Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 Maybe you will invent a new product for that need. :)
ChaseFan9 Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 Will this work?http://originalbobsled.com/SemiAutoSleds.aspxAt the very bottom, it says FAL pattern is "Coming Soon!", so you might have to call and ask someone about it. Beyond that, you'd probably have to just make one, as I don't know of anyone else who does....
hollywood Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Posted February 27, 2016 Maybe. I did not see the fal pattern coming soon when I looked. Thanks ChaseFan9.
hollywood Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Posted February 27, 2016 Just sent an email asking when it will be available.
ChaseFan9 Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 Np, hollywood, let us know what you find out :)
hollywood Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Posted February 27, 2016 Np, hollywood, let us know what you find out :)Will do. Anyone else's chamber that long?
Winchester59 Posted July 5, 2016 Report Posted July 5, 2016 I just received 2 LAR-8 complete uppers from RRA & both had tags on them saying not to single load cartridges w/o using magazine. I too, use Bobsleds on other rifles & was puzzled by their warning. I thought maybe it was hard on the extractor or..........?

I think they worry about slam fires , the Extractor might see some advanced wear , but should be minimal . Just alter a Mag . as said .
hollywood Posted July 6, 2016 Author Report Posted July 6, 2016 Bob has gotten the "Bob sled" design finalised and I've tested and it works flawlessly. Just shoot him an email to order, he doesn't have them out to his distributer's yet. Tell him Erick from VT sent you.
