mbjku Posted October 8, 2014 Report Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) Just got my Lar-8 and here is questions, sorry: - Please suggest better quality stock, mine looks cheapo and might not hold recoil well. - I need to buy 15 or less rounds mags (NJ :( ) do you know anybody selling them besides RRA/10? - Any handrail besides RRA made and will cost less then my old kifney you might suggest? - Any issues shooting still ammo (Brown Bear, Wolf etc) besides it is dirty? Thanks! Here is my rifle so far, ready to shot but as you see it needs tons of improvements: Edited October 8, 2014 by mbjku
planeflyer21 Posted October 8, 2014 Report Posted October 8, 2014 Welcome to the club! I really am fond of the Rock River Elite Operator stock (and the Operator stock, if you want a fixed option). Depends on what your preferences are and how you will be modding your smokepole.

Thanks, I guess I need fixed one since NJ. Edited October 9, 2014 by mbjku
planeflyer21 Posted October 9, 2014 Report Posted October 9, 2014 The fixed Operator is a nice stock. You'll need a spacer, in order to mount it on that carbine length tube and a longer vented screw.

planeflyer21 Posted October 9, 2014 Report Posted October 9, 2014 I'm not certain but possibly. It is adjustable though, if that is an issue in your area.

planeflyer21 Posted October 9, 2014 Report Posted October 9, 2014 Be glad you didn't purchase a DPMS-pattern rifle, that EVERYONE is making aftermarket parts for and selling.

I own quiet number of rifles and pistols, besides maybe Beretta nobody is charging as much for small mags, what is going on? Edited October 10, 2014 by mbjku
planeflyer21 Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 Not sure. I ordered a bunch of the 20-rounders from RRA when they were $20 a pop. Everything is going up, up, UP.

unforgiven Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Call RRA and talk to tech support if you'r not sure about what fits.All thier rifles have solid parts it's just whatever you want to put on you'r rifle.if you'r looking for metal mags http://www.keepshooting.com/fn-fal-metric-20rd-magazine.html I never run steel cased ammo through my RRA. Edited October 11, 2014 by unforgiven
planeflyer21 Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 I got a BUNCH of the S. Korean made steel FAL mags from AIMSurplus, for $15/ea when ordered together.
unforgiven Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 Aim is good people to do bussiness with. <thumbsup>
98Z5V Posted October 14, 2014 Report Posted October 14, 2014 SO is KeepShooting.com, referenced above. I use them for all my grease gun mags, uzi mags, and M1 Carbine mags. Good people to do business with. <thumbsup>
LAR8Autoshucker Posted October 16, 2014 Report Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Mine came with a little card saying not to run magtec ammo but I already had 1000 rounds of it the basement so I gave it a try. I had feed issues with every brand of ammo I ran so I sent it for warranty work and it now eats everything I try to feed it. I also bought a cheap mid length quad rail and took a grinder to the backside (towards shooter) until it fit. I have since spend the cash on an rra free floatrail system and low pro gas block. Save your pennies and buy rra first. Well worth it, mine shoots sub moa at 100yrd with 20 dollar american eagle m1a ammo. Pics on another thread to prove it.

mbjku Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Posted October 24, 2014 Thanks, unfortunatly I am in NJ and all these available yet mags are 20 rounds.
