    UPDATE IN OP.
    The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than the cowards they really are.

    Read your update. Any comments on the feel of the rifle? Any change in felt recoil?

    Tom,
    The rifle felt exactly like a 20" should. Felt recoil MAY have been just a tad, a tad more than normal..but Ive not fired another 20" rifle in so long to compare it to. As I said, everything felt brisk & snappy as it should.
    Of course- Ive got a lot a shooting to do with this rifle coming up. But if she keeps on like this Im satisfied.

    I will be trying out my newly assembled AR-9 tomorrow. You picked a better weekend for shooting by far!

    Throw some pics up brother- what kind is it?
    And yes, I went to our church in TN..out in a GORGEOUS spot, I just sit there awhile before shooting sometime. We have a range, a climbing/rappel tower/ropes course. So blessed to be able to shoot in private.
    Fill us in how that runs..Id love to have one myself.

    Hopefully I will snap some pics at the range. Its a FM Products Glock-mag lower with a Shockwave Blade Stealth and an upper I put together with a Spinta bolt, KAK (not KAC) 11" barrel, 10" ALG keymod rail and "sport" upper sans dust cover or FA.

    I put the upper together quite some time ago to find it just was not reliable with Endomags (bolt compatability). Hopefully it runs well with the dedicated pistol cal lower.

    So glad to hear of the success with the 42 coil. I believe it has a broader operating envelope than some other springs because it has more preload without a huge increase in area under the curve. It’s very “linear” . Jury’s still out on durability for me but I think the verdict is in on performance.
