conversion guns.  the one i handled was OK, but H-E-A-V-Y!!!  probably 12-3+ lbs of steel and wood with a 72 rd drum under it.  it was neat but would get old fast with no happy switch.

If someone comes up with a tactical replacement stock, I might go for it!

I've fired one that belongs to a friend. VERY heavy, as SW said, but that means that the recoil is quite seriously at a .22 level. Also, the one that I shot was spot-on as far as accuracy. The trigger was nice and made it easy to do rapid fire, which combined with the hi-cap mags and lack of recoil makes it a great rapid fire gun. I imagine you could fit a trigger crank to it and start wasting money really fast Tongue

my thoughts on buying one was to set it up as a LMG with bipod and trigger crank.  you could put out a PILE of fire with 72 rd drums.
