    Magpul XTM and Digicam... or not?

    I personally love it. It gives a nice, quick point of reference by feeling alone. My hand falls into the same position every time. Index finger lays on the front cover, middle finger lays in between the two and my pinky and ring finger lay on the rear cover. My palm falls on the rear left and...

    Magpul XTM and Digicam... or not?

    I like the color contrast, too, but I just went with Flat dark earth against the black gun for the contrast. I also spaced them apart for a different look and it makes a nice solid grip area. I also like the digicam look. Wow, I was no help at all was I?:D Here's a pic for reference...........

    What Would You Do?

    The extractor is spring loaded and will "wiggle" if you try to move it. It's supposed to. I think ya'll are talking about the ejector. 1 round per hundred could be a number of things. Are the failures near the end of your session? Could be a dirty gun. Or are they spread throughout the session...

    Ejector shredding my cleaning rod

    Can someone explain this? Why in the world would cleaning your .22 bore with a rod be more harmful than not doing it at all? Are people scraping the rod against the inside or something??

    Hammer strike point

    I have not sent back a 15-22, but I have sent an SW1911 to them twice. You do not need a lock, just box up the gun, original magazine and make sure it's in "inoperable" status (unloaded etc..) and ship it off. You can actually ship it in the factory box, just cover the box in that brown shipping...

    Send it in or DIY, what are my options?

    Thanks guys! Just so happens that I was about to make an order with Midway, this works out perfect! Getting the springs and the punches. I have always used an "alternative" (Alan wrench, etc..) it's about time I get some real punches. Thanks again!

    Send it in or DIY, what are my options?

    Thanks for the responses, guys! I'll definitely order those springs, that makes perfect sense to me. Reduce the bolt drag by installing lighter FCG springs! Perfect. These are the ones, no? JP Rifles Great price, but they want $8.50 to ship them! Ouch. Is this the only place to buy them? Do...

    Send it in or DIY, what are my options?

    Bought a used 15-22 and have put about 300 rounds of 550 Fed bulk pack down the pipe flawlessly. I have to say that this gun is fantastically fun! My serial# begins with DSZ and through some searching, this is an early model Serial. My gun definitely does not have the "blue springs" or the new...
