Ginger, the spikes was not the best quality, the stock was cross threaded onto the body (I should have noticed that myself) combined with a lack of professionalism and engineering knowledge and probably chemistry between myself and wayne are the factors involved with me not dealing with nwcp again.

That said he's got my respect for ploughing on in a very competitive market and having to deal with very demanding customers and sorting through the mountain of paperwork required to bring in the stuff he does...

I bare no malice towards wayne and wish him well in the future.

That is where I stand on the matter..

Your input was helpful, still not sure of which is better, might be a close thing.

Is your rail able to take a proper scope, say 3-9x40 ?

Lots of people have Smith`s, I fancy something different and reasonably accurate for 25-30yds.

Heard the Beretta ARX160 in .22 is good, again something different :shakeshout:
Theres a dozen different rail attachments for them so you can chose what would be right for the scope you want to put on there. I used to have a mini scope on mine, a AGS 3-9x IIRC and it was fine. If you're puting a normal/larger size scope on you'd probably need to use a proper H&K claw mount to ensure you had adequate stability. OF course the newer GSG MP5 alike, the 522 has an intergrated picatinny rail on top of the receiver so there'd be no problem there.

Agreed, as said a combination of factors.....

lantac is like 2.5k!
Paul is currently working on a new bolt system for his 22 Ravens and will be bringing out a new 'entry level' model similar to the Raven TCR (223). Should be out later this year.
