I just recieved it today brand spanking new in cosmoline. I will be promptly sending it out to have the barrel shortened though to 18.5" from 22". I would shorten it further but in Canada it would make the gun restricted and then I could only shoot it on a range. I will post before and after pics of the rifle tomorrow and add the after pics after I get it back from the gunsmith. I also plan on adding the Troy Mcs chassis to the rifle later in the future.

Congrats, where did you get it?

good deal Smitty. So Marstar got some more in stock?

 

[MrSmitty]

Marstar did a while back but I didn't get my order in time to them. But they put me down for 2 more on the next and LAST batch from Marstar cause Norinco says this it they aren't making no more. But I couldn't wait for those two cause I wanted to send one of mine away to get the barrel shortened and put the Troy Mcs on it and I wanted it before wintertime so I ordered one from Frontier Taxidermy in Saskatchewan. Wicked service had the rifle 3 days after the phone call I made to them. Of the other two I ordered from Marstar I wanted to keep one stock and the other one I will sell to a buddy of mine who hasn't gotten his firearms license yet. And if my buddy ends up not wanting it I might put the JAE on that one and a high powered scope.
I would have bought a springfield but for 2+k they can keep it. I paid 399 apiece for these ones new packed in grease and I can always pimp them out so they perform just as good as a springfield for alot less.

Well I am not even going to be able to get it out to take some action shots of it I have to send it away to the gunsmith Pronto. Tuesday when I am finally off its getting cleaned up and sent out. My ammuntion just showed up too. So now I have 100 rounds of South african 147gr 7.62x51 400 rounds of AE 150gr 308 and 1000 rounds of PMC 147gr 7.62x51 to test out when I get her back. I think I will use the south african to break it in since its not very good stuff.
