Hey Ishi, could you put up the specs again (and maybe who made) your pig buster. One of the Young troopers here is wanting a new 30cal Critter buster. He just completed a remy 700 build that he will make double his build price on.

Thanks, Andy. It has "R1A1" stamped on the receiver, is there a difference? The receiver is metric and was milled to accept the fch.

Evening guys. I think this has turned into a new project hints firearms thread.

Andy, curious why you'd recommend the birdcage over the vortex? Never seen these in action...but most bird cages don't come close in flash suppression.
Randy, it's a UGSW Kukri. They go by another name now...I'll look'em up and pm you.

R1A1 was Century playing on the South African R1 designation, the kit your rifle started as was an L1A1 (Brit or Aussie depending on the markings). The metric receiver is just what it was built on of course. Birdman is the Gunsmith .... The F1 flash supressor is a limited production variation to the standard L1A1 flash supressor, it also acts as a MB to a degree, much shorter than the origial issue version while retaining the working properties, it also allows the use of the standard Commonwealth pattern bayonets (sould you need to put "cold steel up 'em") ....

Do you reload, Adam? I think the BlueBonnets of Death would reign supreme in that there machine! ![[Linked Image from i99.photobucket.com]](http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l287/Izhmash/BLUEBONNETS_zps7cbe65b9.jpg) That is true, but old FMJ does wonders too.

The muzzle brake will be replaced with something else, but I don't know what with yet. This one is garbage. I will also shorten the barrel to 18 inches. I live very close to a reputable FAL smith.
Yes, they're piston driven.
Trigger pull is long and heavy compared to a good AR trigger. Linear and smooth.
The ergos are good, though I will replace the furniture at some point.
I wish I was set up to reload. Maybe now I have a good excuse to make the investment. Those are TTSX bullets, right? I say go with the original style L1A1 one so you can put steel pointed thing on the end!
