A friend who has used them for night shooting extensively has told me that the floorplate on the mag tends to let go and dump the rounds,follower and magspring on the ground.

He solved that by taking it to an engineering shop and asking them to put the world's smallest tack weld on the floorplate and mag at the back.

Are there any significant differences between the outdoor outfitters models, and say the H&F model?

All I can notice is the HF version has a 4x40 as opposed to a 4x32, and the suppressor and scope is branded 'stealth' ....

Cheers.
