Well got out of work early today and put 40 rounds through it. Very smooth firing! Not one problem with feeding, de-linking, firing or extraction. Well worth the buy!

Having this 1919a4 in sem-auto and with a crappy trigger pull will definately help conserve ammo.

All in all... would I buy another one if I had the chance....HELL YEAH!

Today I did some examining on the function of the trigger, sear and locking frame and whatnot and found a way to really increase the smoothness while reducing the weight of the trigger pull. It is down to about 8 pounds from about 25 pounds.

It will be a week or so before I can fire it but dry firing it works like a charm! Disconnect works without a hitch so no full auto there!

I'll get a video up when I go out again.

Built the tripod adaptor. This baby now holds three ammo cans. One for the live ammo, one can for the empty brass to fall into and the last can for the spent links. This way nothing hits the floor.

All primered flat black and ready for the range!

Chris, I have to hand it to you. You do excellent work. That is one sharp addition.

I didn't do anyof the welding....just the fabrication and cutting of parts using a desgin that is on the net. They are just priced outragiously so I made my own.

That tripod looks awesome in person! It is real nicely made. I can tell the chubby inspector had no part in it!

well...fired my last shots out of it today and decided not to keep it.

As soon as I figure out what I want for sale or trade(s), I'll be putting it up on the ad boards.
