    I run keymod on my AR's rail and it's great because it's actually HOLES in the rail so it's able to be lighter than if it were picatinny, there are also adapters for keymod to picatinny if the attachment you require is only able to be used on picatinny.
    Problem with M-lok currently, is that there's not really enough attachments for them. I can see M-lok being more popular in the far future though. Just my 10c.

    Yep that's it.. I was convinced it was a lubrication issue to start with but kept coming back to the mags

    I've only used mine a handful of times, I will keep an eye out for any failure to feeds and report back my findings. Will throw a hundred or so of rounds down range on Sunday with these mags and see how I go.

    That bugger moment when your new suppressor bushing ends up right in the small section of barrel

    FYI, the new SileNZ carbine or subsonic suppressors will fit an M4 profile barrel and locate the rear bushing to contact just on the front edge of that step down on the barrel. Good hybrid alloy units, and provided you arent doint mag dumps they will give good service. (Like any alloy suppressor you have to take care not to over-cook them.) Available from GunsNZ.com or me. Gunsnz have them with bushings all ready to go for the stag arms AR barrels. Cheers.
    Everyone has the right to their own opinion, but that doesn't mean that every opinion is right.

    Lol Murphy strikes again!
    Looks like you need to turn your 16"(I assume) into a 14.5"
