Many months down the track I sold it. There was nothing wrong with it but had I known that you can only get 10 or 25 round mags I would never have got it.
For our ipsc mini rifle shoots we are putting on a 15 round mag limit as many members do not have an e-cat. So I had to look at something he could use with 15 round mags given that he cannot get his firearms license let alone an ecat to use 25 round mags with only 15 in them. 10 would not have been competitive as he would have had to do an extra mag change often.
So I put the same stock that fits him an an aero upper/lower with a dedicated cmmg barrel and bolt. Made a CF hand guard to keep the weight down and bought half a dozen black dog 10 rounders and converted them to 15.
I was worried about the weight but there is really no issue. Maybe the M&P would be a faster at transitions for speed steel but he is doing really well with the heavier rifle as it is.
Will do, I am going to give it the first rounds at an indoor range this week to get it sighted in.

In words of one syllable, explain to me as if I was a child of seven how that cycles. Note, I am intimately familiar with the M60 and GPMG (or at least I was 40 odd years ago).
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

Dedicated top-opening, piston driven upper.
Belt feeding musket balls would have been advantageous as well😆

Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.
Marlin 45/70G arrived yesterday . . . cheers tikka
it will be getting the same treatment as the .30/30 above - 45MOA base, 30mm Burris rings with inserts, mk4 3.5-10 mildot and a suppressor
using 405grn. bullets ( bought the mold 10 years ago with this in mind ) energy will be more at +600yds than the .30/30 at the muzzle ( 197grn subsonic ) . . . penetration is measured in feet.
this will be my subsonic heavy hitter . . . only one small problem, money to make it happen, might take more than i want but on the plus side the bones of the project are there now, i need a 3rd job
