FightIite SCR - who has one?

[Member 34319]

I like different things, this guy keeps finding me online and each time it does I really can't stop thinking that's stupid cool.

Who has one?

Whatcha think of it.

Reliability issues?



Guys online have been using wood stocks from semi auto shotguns and darn that's a cool looking rifle.

You'll have better luck asking Californians. It's just a "featureless" Rifle that's CA compliant.


Yawn.

Yawn.

I like it regardless of the reasons why it was created. Has clean lines.

Looks fairly light too, I'm curious if it sheds some weight off a traditional receiver style configuration.

Not super light. Lousy trigger, awkward mag release due to ergos.

Again....yawn.

If you end up getting one, please post up how it shoots.

Kruels opinion duly noted. Thanks!

I swear it's nothing personal.

Looks like it would be as awkward feeling as an unconverted saiga...

@Reno911 What kind of pricing are you seeing on these?

 

[Member 34319]

The lower receiver itself I've seen for around 4-5 hundred.

Their complete rifles are pretty expensive. In the 800-1000 range. I'd rather put an upper together myself for the lower.

 

[Member 34319]

The Jessi James stuff is priced in the 2-3 thousand marks.

Only issue I see is that the safety and mag release are left in a position more suitable for a pistol grip. Seems like you'd be reaching or have to adjust your grip to use them ...more than one would like to.

Bingo ^^^
I had an SCR when I lived in the PRK. I sold it to a pal before I left.
Pluses: It was good as a thumb in the eye of the California DOJ
It used any AR-15 upper
it used AR mags
Negatives: the trigger was indeed stiff
The charging handle will slice your thumb if you use it while holding the rifle in the normal manner.
Re-assembling it after cleaning etc is awkward at first because you have to slide the tongue on the proprietary bolt into the stock.
For reasons I'll never understand, it came without a bolt-catch. It had a slot for one which they put a plug in and they sent you the bolt-catch for free if you asked.
Once you got the hang of the trigger (or got it worked on) it was accurate enough. I enjoyed shooting it. I enjoyed leaving it behind in CA more.
