Neat. I never would've believed how hot those things could get until I played with them myself. I was friendly with some people who worked for a manufacturer and they had a post-sample M249 with some absurd suppressor on it and I can still remember how much of a pain it was to clean off the plastic from the folding table that had melted to it when I set it down.
Bought myself a birthday present. First year manufacture, I would put it at 98%.
Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me ...

Did I screw up?
Need to find a threaded barrel for one of my pistols too. Had I some forethought years ago before I started stamp collecting, I would have bought one with.
Well, you can't call Bert anymore, so yeah, I'd say you screwed up!

OR
I'd drop the money for a TacSol bbl, a magpul stock and ruger BX trigger. . Using the receiver & bolt assy.
I'm not looking to build a tac driver, just something low budget to plink with.
Anything wrong with the $100 ER Shaw threaded barrels at brownells, etc?
