A different upper won't change the characteristics of it. AND, you'll have the original upper, so there won't be any issues with value or keeping the gun original down the road for resale.

If you can't get no satisfaction from that mount just grab one of these or one of these (when they get more) and cruise

My local gun shop had a GREAT labor day sale on 5.56 X-tac brass PMC for $7.49 a box so I nabbed 1000 rounds for under $400 including tax NOW we can go plinking again

Hmm that i might have to look into. The only thing
I've noticed is you have to let it "slam" home
initially or it won't close completely. I think
this was more from being new as it's not
been a problem since the first day.
When i got it I was deciding between
Springfield sub-compact 40 Glock G27 or
this. I do like it a lot but think the other
two would have been great also. Worst
part is not finding a good holdter for it yet

Anyone put on an auto bolt release or modify the bolt release on a 10/22?

I was having an issue with my extractor on my 10/22, so I bought a bunch of Volquartsen goodies for it. Got a trigger upgrade that came with the auto bolt release, recoil buffer, and extractor.

Auto bolt release is not working properly. I have followed several youtube videos to verify everything is installed correctly and it still doesn't release without doing the normal non-auto procedure to release it.

Not sure if it is getting caught on my mag release or something else. Can't find what is hold it up. They are sending me another to see if it is an issue with the auto bolt release and went ahead and ordered one of their extended mag releases to see if that is an issue.

I bought a built trigger, but looking at that plate, it was pretty simple, just filling down that ridge

$75 exchanged, w a new billet trigger

I bought kidd bolt handle and buffer

The volquartsen one didn't need to be filed, I got it with the kit I bought for the trigger and extractor.

Finally found the issue, it was the archangel extended mag release. I sanded the angle that made contact with the bolt release plate some and it works perfectly now.
