    An AM180 would be pretty awesome. Have you had one Leadeye?

    I had one back in the 80s, the drum magazines were not the most reliable thing going. Took a load of graphite powder to get a full drum to operate and when they get hot they cook off, stopping and spraying brass on your pants and shoes. I kept teh suppressor, it's on this rig that I built around the same time and still have.

    We have exchanged PM's. I gave him 3 options for partial trades. He likes all of them but he is swamped with offers so I can realistically say I might not get it.
    I hope it works out for you. That would pretty much take care of that itch you are having.

    I figured you had had one. :laugh:
    The magazines do seem like the weak link in that setup.

    What at is the optic on the Ruger? Old Aimpoint?

    And any future itches for a while. Like you said when we were mulling over calibers......squeeze trigger, 60 cents. Do in real fast and it is 12 dollars.....every time you Mag up.

    Thats why I like my pistol caliber stuff. It's a little cheaper, and easier to hand someone the gun and a full mag.

    The earliest of Aimpoints.

    The 180 was fun, but wasn't any faster than the MG-42, a gun that never jams.
