    Just got to fire my m11 for the first time today!! After shooting I have put all my regrets aside. The m11 with the lage upper functioned flawless ... zero problem with my 4 plastic mags. If you have any 2nd thought about a FA just go ahead and order the gun you will not regret it.
    Now I just need to test some silencers to make a decision. Can anyone help me with that. :)

    Yea having the lage upper makes having a mac worth it. The http://www.bowersgroup.com/ can is very common and a low price. I have the old mac 2 stage can with the wipes on mine. It still is a great can and making wipes is easy. I have been thinking of getting it updated but it is quiet even with blown out wipes so it works for me. I'm like 400 on the lage .22 list but I'm sure the list is at some crazy number now. If you guys are not on it yet I would send him a email now :)

    Finally got the Upper, and Im 300 and teen change for the .22 upper. Unbelievable that Im actually probably going to come out ahead on a $500 upper to shoot cheap ammo.
    (and yes the stock is crooked because I didnt screw it to the lower so it would fit into the safe easier):exnbp:

    I put the Ace folding adapter on mine with the lage stock fits into range bags easier that way. What was your number on the .22 list?

    Could you post a picture of that setup. I have stuck with the wire stock but that might convince me to change.



    For the lage .22 kit:
    I was 510 on Jan 27 and 434 on May 2

    What version do you want? I still can't decide.

    first day out with the lage today and bent the extractor rod.

    what a pita

    I guess its going back for repairs

    I had read about over inserting a mag before I got mine. I'm guessing that's what happened to you? You want have to send the whole thing back just have Richard send you a new extractor rod. He may not even charge for it.

    I'm sure the mag was over inserted and the rod rotated. What kind of mags are you using? The zytels I have can't be over inserted but the steel ones I have can.
