Got her put together last week, and took it to the range and sighted it in today. Colt 604 upper, J&T BCG, RRA LPK, USGI forearm (new old stock) and PG (used), Cav Arms stock and Roggio lower.

Forgive me the blurry cell phone pics, its the only camera I have:

Put just under 100 rounds of various makes through it today. Three stoppages, two from Winchester 45 gr JHP's slamming into the receiver. The other was a Precision Ammunition "Firefrangible" with a flat face, also hitting the upper. No harm, save for three rounds that are much shorter than they started out. Just dropped the mag, picked the offending round out, then went on my with business. Could only get 3 or so each time w/o a stoppage, so I gave up and set that stuff aside.

Shot FMJ from Winchester, Guatemala, PMC and Speer, all flawlessly and into the 4cm circle on the sighting target.

I have 5 Cproducts mags, two work flawlessly, one holds the bolt back on the mag body, not by tripping the bolt stop, one wont hold the bolt back at all, the last didn't make into the range bag :o. Also tried a gen 2 pmag and a Lancer clear mag, all 30 rounders and all worked fine. I'm getting more pmags.

So, I need to get some more pmags and FMJ ammo. And a lower and extension to put the A2 stock and grip I got from RRA on. And an upper for that. And an LPK. And and and...
