Feeds flawlessly with 10 different mag mfgs

Will Special Weapons be able to modify customer SL8s in house?

Bartholomew Roberts · September 6, 2001, 10:44 AM

I don't want to get in the middle of a flame war but Special Weapons has a pretty horrible rep over at AR15.com. I'm just an occasional lurker there so I don't know what started the bashing of this business there or whether it is justified; but if it were me I'd do some research before I sent my business there.

Destructo6 · September 6, 2001, 01:12 PM

Some of the flame wars , SW et al vs USP40 et al, over at the old HK91.com board were fairly amusing. It seemed to be a fairly polarizing issue.

That is thunderous! Awesome! My Mini will be badly neglected.

Gary H · September 6, 2001, 02:39 PM

My SL-8 hasn't been used, or abused recently, but what is the legality of such a modification. I have at least 25 AR mags of different origin and I have the SL-8 and I carry my evil gun registration papers when any evil gun is removed from my domicile. What's up legally with this?

George Hill · September 6, 2001, 02:53 PM

For a Full Cap SL8? I'ld move outta state.

brouhaha · September 6, 2001, 03:01 PM

You guys do realize that this entails cutting of the receiver plastic all the way up to the ejection port, don't you? How many are willing to take a $1200 target rifle and start cutting on it? Whay not just buy an AR if you want large capacity mags? I have a SL8 and you can be sure I'm not gonna do any cutting on it...

CITADELGRAD87 · September 6, 2001, 05:09 PM

Uhh, it's "copyRIGHT," not "copyWRITE."

Food for thought considering the post immediately above mine...

Gewehr98 · September 6, 2001, 08:26 PM

for that thumbhole stock, does it?:barf:

Gary H · September 6, 2001, 09:14 PM

I hate that thumbhole. It is the number one reason why my SL-8 sits in the safe. Hurts

George Hill · September 6, 2001, 09:57 PM

Gimme and SL8 and let me have a few hours alone with it and my Dremmel... I'll fix up that stock!
