That's very cool John & Doug. I'd love to own an original with full auto or even get to fire one!
Also Douglas I agree with Richard. If I owned an original I would definitely fire it at least once!
Since I'm in California I am quite satisfied firing it's modern semi-auto commercial version. I just recently fully field stripped it, cleaned it & reassembled for the first time. Very cool but the recoil spring & guide rod were definitely tricky to get back together. It'll take some getting used to.
Here are some pics of it stripped (sorry for the poor quality, got to learn how to use this new phone's camera).
Also pics of the bolt hold open device & installed into a mag.
I picked up a BAR combo tool and mag loader too.
