Airsoft Ar-15 & AK-47 Accessories and Stocks

AK-47

Also, be prepared to get out the heavy files or Dremel tool for fitting the AK-47; the dimensions are bigger than you will need for the MAK. This is not necessarily a bad thing as, with careful fitting, you can achieve a very tight but servicable fit. You will also have to buy at least one additional screw for the tang, but, this is something you can pick up in a hardware store. Finally, you will have to make pilot holes for the screws.

Colt 1903 magazine

Your post shows a complete lack of knowledge with respect to the subject at hand A Colt is an entirely different animal from a semi-custom (which you seem to acknowledge) and other than for an intended application, there is no fair basis of comparison between the two. The semi custom is a superior package in every way, including features, workmanship, fit, finish, and service. Colt 1903 magazines OTOH makes a production pistol which is in an entirely different class, competing with the likes of Kimber, Springfield, Para, etc.

North of $1,000? that’s like saying that Minnesota is miles north of Texas. If you can find a semi custom USED for $1,000, let me know and I’ll be on it like a fly circling over your post. As for investing $300 more in a Colt and it will ? no different than that of a Wilson or Baer… I don’t know what word(s) you ommitted in your post, but you cannot dress up a Colt with $300 and expect a fair basis of comparison with a semi custom. A couple of years back, Yost-Bonitz did a package to modify a Colt (or SA) at or beyond the level of your basic semi custom. The price of the work was about 1,000 for their entry package. Adding the price of the donor Colt 1903 magazine, you have a pistol that meets/exceeds a semi custom for the price that meets/exceeds the pricepoint of a semi custom. Colts are excellent platforms for customization and the potential is only limited by the artisan who works it, but the factory Colt is no bargain substitute for what you get in the other classes of pistols.

As to the OP, I can understand your reason for selecting a Colt 1903 magazines, and your sentiments are shared by thousands who insist on Colt for their production AND their custom needs. There is no denying the heritage, and that commands a niche market others cannot touch. Like others have said, the Gold Cup was made for target shooting, and I think that would be your best bet. I would look into the Talo if you have the money

AR-15 Magazines

I’ve checked with distributors and at your web site and the only versions I see of your SS AR mags are with CS springs. Is there an option to order them with SS springs?? I know you guys are slammed right now and don’t expect an immediate response but I’d sure like to add to my AR-15 Magazines "collection" if I can get "maintenance free" mags (SS bodies and SS springs). Thanks for providing the products and services that you do.

Glock 17 magazines

MO ,Just more complexity to potentialy cause problems,loose pins etc.

Besides,how could Glock 17 magazines do this without closing off the backstrap channel?Everyone knows that must remain open in order for a Glock to function properly!

If glock wants to follow the lead of other manufacturers, whose current designs more than likely will not even be on the market in ten years ,I think it would be a mistake!

If you cannot adjust to the Glock 17 magazine ergos the way they are ,you have lots of other choices.

Rifle Scopes

I ‘m in total agreement with you about not having this scope made in China Rifle Scopes. I’m a firefighter, I don’t build scopes. It was never my intention to go thru all the time money and frustration Ive been thru in trying to get this reticle into a good quality scope. I have offered to license this reticle to just about every one of the scope manufactures that make good quality tactical scopes. All of them, I say again all of them have turned my offer down. Even Millett was not interested in marketing the CRS under their company. Instead Millett Rifle scopes took the concept of the CRS and sold it as the rfp circle dot DMS-1.
US Optics could have made the 1×4 or 1.5×6 version of the CRS but I wasn’t satisfied with their illumination system plus a couple of other factors kept me from going with them.

Rifle Scopes

In my opinion, you would have to really NEED *that reticle*
to justify the extra cost for just an OK piece of glass that typically
runs $260.00

Having owned and sold 2 DMS 1’s and a CRS, let me point out a few critical differences aside from just the reticule. Although made by Millet Rifle Scopes and housed in a DMS body, the CRS is an FFP scope so the ranging and BDC Rifle Scopes works at any magnification, the size of the reticule adjusting accordingly.
It has a much bigger eyebox and better eye relief than the DMS 1, again by virtue of it’s FFP design. I got rid of my DMS’s ) because it felt as though if i moved my eye 1/4" in any direction off centerline to the scope it would black out. The result was slower on target times with the DMS than the rifle scope. ( and i do have a very consistant cheekweld, thankyou )
This made it more effective as a red dot-ish scope at 1X on targets more than 10 ft away than the DMS. At 4X the reticule comes into it’s own, the ranging and BD adjustments are incredibly intuitive.

Although they were made by Millet , Ed is a stand up American who’s trying to realise his dream. Read the whole thread referenced above for some insight.
