There was a curved barrel version of the M3 back in the day. You'll have to google the pic.

Yeah, those are the pics I remember seeing.

Designed in Queensland! 😆

The dude doesn't look too sure about it.

How many were produced?

I would feel the same way.

Picked up an M&P 2.0, Apex trigger goodies (that stock trigger is horrendous) WOTG sights as with all my guns. I got it because more and more students are showing up with them, so I wanted to have an educated answer when questions arise. I put over 1,500 rounds through it so far. I really like the metal mags and they fly outta the gun like shit through a goose.

It shoots good, but it's not better than a Glock by any means and it's eating me up on combat reloads, but that make the beast with two backsers not gonna win. I'm gonna keep running it hard for another 3-5k. I'll make my final call at that point.

I just picked up a 300 blk HBAR barrel.  I have an LRB upper and lower and have been mulling what to make with them.

Everyone says 300blk is the shit, I'll try it.  Takes me about 30 minutes to pull a barrel now...

Anyone have any FHE with running this caliber with an Adams Arms piston system?

No experience with the Adams but I really like my BCM 300.

Looking forward to the later review kopf.

I'm considering one of these.

I have it on a 5.45 setup.  All the 5.45 milsurp is dirty as hell and it deals with it beautifully.  The gas setup on the 5.45 is pretty much identical to the 5.56, but 300blk has different issues.  Their site says it works fine, but my 300blk barrel has a mid length gas port..  I don't know if pushing the piston requires the same amount of gas as a DI setup........

How much training are you' doing?

Got a fantastic shot of the eclipse this past week...  My pic doesn't look like everyone else's, but I like mine better, plus I don't need to wear special glasses.

Story of my weekend...  shooting long-range targets up in WY.  My wife has accused me of running out of elevation once or twice, I guess she's right.  The .348WCF made it out to 800yds, but I couldn't get to 1200.

Nice  8 to 12 is a big jump, especially if your wind calls are weak, and even then it ain't no joke.
