Never have been a Burris fan and the few optics I owned were OK at best. Combine crap CS with just OK optics and you will be spending your free time on the phone with them. If you do get two new in box optics I would sell them and buy other glass.
Good point. SD cards are cheap and easy to swap and transfer at faster rates typically than internal memory. I like the V2 a lot, not sure if the lack of the SD card is a deal breaker. Anyone know if it's a standard battery pack or proprietary?
I prefer springers for simplicity and no need for a compressor or air tanks. They are more of a challenge to shoot accurately than a PCP gun. Prior to the TX200 I had an RWS 48 in .22. It was a hard hitting rifle but I could never get consistent accuracy with it after various mounts and optic...
I picked up my Ruger X39 from this place. https://www.familyfirearms.com/product/ruger-american-ranch-7.62x39mm-flat-dark-earth-16976 For a $450'ish dollar rifle its actually really nice. Other than replacing the bolt handle ( I hated it ) its ready to go to the range.
I will address slicking up the bolt and cocking surfaces after I get everything working the way I want. I fabricated a bolt knob extension from a grade 8 bolt , turned one end with a 1/8" diameter than fits into the cut off and drilled factory Ruger bolt handle and threaded the other end...
I picked up a Ruger American in X39 because I have an un-used .30 caliber can laying around and its a perfect suppressor host. For a $450 rifle its really not bad. Mine actually has a nice clean trigger , the 20 round Ruger mags fit and feed and not stupid expensive. The stock really is a canoe...
Rounded up a block of time to declare victory on my Bren MKII weld up and restoration. I had a snag in reliable cycling and went down a rabbit hole on spring rates , loading and cycling. Mechanically my gun is stupid smooth in every aspect. It goes together and comes apart without forcing...
Final stretch : Springs, striker and guide tubes. I mod the striker base to clear the disconnector and radius the edges of the disconnector to clear the 5/16" slot x. 055" deep in the striker base. On my MKI build my striker was making contact / dragging over the disconnector. That bleads...
Cut and welded a piece of key stock to the bottom of the piston post. This gets milled down to the same height of the existing disconnector reset section and extends the length. This will positively reset the disconnector and take that task away from the striker block traveling over it. I will...
It's been hard to get blocks of play time but gradually making progress. Last part to mod for the firing pin transfer bar is drilling a thru hole for a roll pin retainer. You will need a 1/8" carbide drill. The Bren bolts are hard and tough. Piston post milled down to remove auto striker...
