So I got a M17S in a trade...

[Jon_L]

It's not in my hands, but the guy shipped it off this morning. What do I do with it first?

[Guest nysos]

I had to look it up, never heard of it before. Neat looking little bullpup.

I'd just go shoot it and see if it has any quirks or issues.

Yeah, that would be best. Also, I moved out of your area and back to Crossville. Do you ever go shooting anymore? I should come out there one weekend if you do.

First, you should let me put my filthy hands all over it so you'll sell it to me as a dirty cheap truck gun!

In all reality, so shoot the darn thing and report back to us!!

I wonder if a 22 conversion will work in those?

Also, when you decide you have had enough of it let me know. I might be interested in it.

Sweet! I like the bullpups as well.

I haven't been able to afford to go shooting much. I plinked with a little beretta 22 neos for a while, but the gun never grew on me so OS bought it off me. If I ever find some time to reload I will be back at it. I traded my AR though on a motorcycle, so I am looking to replace that soon, most likely going to buy 3 stripped lowers this paycheck and slowly work on building an SBR on one. Likely going to just configure it as a pistol first until the stamp comes through, then swap the buffer tube and throw a stock on it.

3 Stripped lowers??

Are you going to try out the NFA Polymer Lowers?

I might try a polymer lower down the road, just to do a light weight 16" build. I am probably getting YHM lowers unless I can find some good quality ones cheaper. Again, since I am going to SBR one - it will need to be engraved. I don't want to SBR/engrave a polymer lower. Once it is SBR'd who knows what calibers I might put on it down the road? Sure it can handle 5.56 ok, but has anyone built a 458 socom on a polymer lower?

Traded for a motorcycle? That was a nice rifle, so I hope you got a good bike, man. And I've been considering doing the same. Maybe just 2 lowers, but I was also wanting to get one of those M-85 Krinkov kits floating around.

But yeah, i just shipped off my rifle and I cannot wait, people.

It definitely was a good rifle, but it was also my first AR build. Just doing it I have learned a lot since then, and determined what I can and can't sacrifice in a build.

I would have to take a look at the bolt, but that would be pretty sweet, wouldn't it?

Gotcha.

Ah, so I forgot about this here. Update time:

I got it mid last week, went to the range with my brother and traded it to him that day. I wasn't too hot on it and he loved it.

And I got a Saiga-12 out of it so I'm happy.
