After a few weeks I am just more and more impressed with the shootability of these guns.

Yes they kick a bit, are expensive to shoot, but man are these things tough.

Shooting pretty quick at 100 yards with irons all shoots fit into a palm sized area. The cheekrest was the best investment.

So next up is a scout scope for the 20mm handguard mount.

Is that a Springfield or Norinco?
I saw Springfield has a version that looks like that, is it restricted due to barrel length?
