The Mag catch together - that Youtube vid, and my daughter as holder, worked GREAT!

Truth-in-lending. It's NOT together yet.

Rear Detent Spring LAUNCHED like a Saturn V. I have yet to find it. :(

I hate it when the detent launches across the room.

You're gonna love that ergo-grip, they are very comfortable.

I hustled home from work tonight and gather my stuff. When the kids got home I took them out to the range for the inaugural firing of the M4.

Attached you'll see my target for the first 9 rounds. NO zeroing - everything as set by the factory - including the eotech. Target was approximately 25 yards away.

Red shots: Shots #1,2,3, Seated, supported.
White shots: 4,5,6, seated, supported
Blue shots: 7,8,9 standing, unsupported (no sling).

:)

I'm very happy - Vids will be posted tonite.

From the first round the weapon functioned flawlessly. I doused the innards with CLP before shooting.

I shot PMC 55gr FMJ-BT

Here's the target:

Here's my first shot (video still)

Here's my 9 year old's first shot (video still)

Unfortunately, the vid camera battery died before he pulled the trigger. :(

Again - vids will be done in about 20 mins or so...

Thanks for reading!

Had to laugh when I read the part about the spring. If I made minimum wage for the hours I have spent looking for flying parts I could own one of those babys. Glad the gun shop was able to bail you out. You are now ready to mess up some bad guys day.
