Just ordered 6 yesterday. Looks like they're shipping out today. Can't wait to try them out.

I bought the 26" model and sent it to TSS. Couldn't be happier!

I saw a guy on calguns.net last week selling the 22" for $800. Pretty reasonable in these times and since the gun was already hard to get before the crazyness happened.

I haven't opened up the loading port on mine. I can load 8 in <6 seconds. Good enough for me right now.

Can't wait. Will you have colored carbon fiber?

It seems like a lot of folks are giving lots of props for the VM. I had an M1 and now have a VM with TSS work. Well worth the $$.

+1 to that. My first AR build, I was missing small parts.

Nice. I just sent mine off to TSS this week to get some work done. I can get down to 6 sec loads using the Taccom rig. I also have a FSL12 that I'm trying to get used to.

Perfect timing. I'm about to get rid of my POS Saiga jam-o-matic. With the elections, this shotgun might be hard to get in CA.

I'll pack some extra socks.

I bought a case of Winchester Ranger low recoil slugs and both my Saiga and Mossberg 590 hate them. I get like 12" groupings at 100 yards which are wild (right, high, low...). I tried them using PM, M, IC, and a bunch of combos from my Polychoke and I still get the same results. Is it just me or does anyone else has this problem? My guns shoot Fed High Power slugs fine, but for some reason, not these Winchester Rangers.

I do the same as above. I load cheap, pulled, 55gr, 4 MOA ammo for close range and 75gr 1 MOA stuff for longer ranges.

Thanks for the info. I think I'll order it.

Would this ammo can work for the Trooper division or is it a little too big? http://www.generaljims.com/shop/product.cfm?p=68

Seems like they've been hard to come by the last few months. Just a heads up that Midway shows them as being in stock. I might have to pick one up for an upper I plan to build.

I'm getting in a JM 930 as well. Was thinking the same thing.

"Jerry Mish-u-lack, if you was a woman I would kiss you" LOL. Great vid

Any idea for round count this year? I think i saw earlier in the thread that there will be less rounds than last year.

Sounds like you guys need to reload

LOP on mine is also 13.5" with buttpad

The rifle spring/tube refers to the length the stock uses (either carbine or rifle length, the ARFX uses a rifle length). I have the same stock but bought my own rifle length tube, JP spring, and JP buffer.

I haven't been able to go to the range yet to try it out. I'm still planning on sending it back to LWD to get the chamber reamed, but just haven't had time. I'll update the thread when I get it fixed.

I have one of their 16" barrels. It shoots great with 69 & 77 gr smks

I think I figured out the problem. I reset the FCD and noticed now the rounds would fit in the LW chamber, although tight. I loaded up a 10rd mag and did some function checks and each and every one would jam in both the LWD barrel and Glock barrel. I couldn't figure it out so I took some factory rounds and function checked them. They all went it smoothly loaded from a magazine and manually releasing the slide. I had the same COAL and the bullets were the same shape. The only difference with my rounds were that the crimp was at .422" while the factory rounds were at .418". I crimped my rounds down to .420" and they still wouldn't chamber from the magazine. I crimped them down again to .418" and this seemed to fix the problem in the Glock barrel but 50% pass/fail in the LWD barrel. I guess I'll send it to LWD with dummy rounds to have them ream it out a little. BTW, I'm using Bear Creek 180gr flat point lead moly-coated bullets and the COAL is set properly (bullet doesn't touch rifling). For the 50 test rounds, I put the brass through my Redding GR-X die so if there was a bulge, it should have gotten rid of it.

That makes sense. I have the Lee FCC installed but I guess I need to adjust it more. I also have the Redding GRX die, but it didn't seem to do anything.
