    The one I used was nice but had a horrible trigger and the safety was so stiff that you struggled to manipulate it with your thumb.

    To be fair it was almost brand new and were probably easy fixes and the AR I'd been using a day before that was on its 3rd barrel so was well worn in.

    I bought a really nice gisselle gs2 trigger for mine from digit , fantastic feel , and great price , my safety is nice and deliberate and feels good as well ... they are only held by spring pressure and a little pointed detent ... I guess a lighter spring would make them nicer , ...

    Variations in selector spring hole depths in different grips can cause stiff selector movement.

    Looking at an AR15 platform as a Xmas and Birthday pressy really will give these guys a call

    Do they have an actual shop you can visit?

    You're welcome to drop in and have a look. We have a recently expanded showroom and are located on the kapiti Coast about 1 hour north of Wellington. You get to handle different ARs and discuss options available plus any licensing issues.

    Would a sliding stock with adj l.o.p be any better suited to two guys with e cat licences sharing the same e cat rifle, rather than a fixed thumb hole stock? Or are the sliders all a bit wobbly?

    will need to arrange a trip down once I have the money in the bank, its a long way from Napier to return empty handed!

    are they open on Saturdays or just weekdays?
