Got the first part in today for my build!
Mostly complete G3 parts kit and a 2-stage buffer are oscar mike to my location as well.
This is my first foray into any sort of gun smithing, as well as into the world of HK firearms. I'm fairly mechanically inclined and I have enough machinery to get it all done though.
I've got a nice Rock River Arms Elite CAR A4, but it doesn't have the accuracy I'm looking for. I want something with good 300-500 yd accuracy, is fed by a magazine, and mounts a scope. Settled on a G3 clone. I'm not looking for historic accuracy or to make a near copy of a real HK, I'm just looking for a nice accurate 7.62 rifle.
Here's what I'm thinking:
G3 trunion
JLD 20" barrel
JLD receiver reinforcement rails
2-stage buffer
PRS adjustable stock
Navy-type composite pistol grip
Williams trigger job
I guess it'll end up resembling an MSG3, but I can't find any barrels longer than 20" that are easy enough to come by. I'll just add a flash suppressor for length LOL
I've been reading all the build instruction pages and I have a pretty good mental image of how all this stuff will go together, but is there anyone that would be free to shoot some build assistance over once in a while?
