My New M1A EBR!
- Thread starter '88Scrat
- Start date
It's the Sage Navy Seal Grey but when it arrived it seemed slightly darker then others I had seen. I find I am not opposed to this.
I also found out just how fast the Sage stocks fly off the shelf. I ordered mine from Clyde Armory 1 day before they recieved a shipment of 100 of them. When I checked their website 5 days later they were sold out.
I am now. How much disassembly is required to add the full auto cut-out cover? I ask because the hardest part of this whole build for me was actually finding a torque wrench that went down to 65 inch pounds. I found one but it is no longer availiable.
The AFG is very solid. The gap is odd looking ain't it?
I was a little skeptical of using both the kydex foregrip and AFG at the same time but it turned out very sturdy.And by the way SR240 your input during this build was a HUGE help. Thanks goes out to you in particular.
I am happy to be of service
You will need an inch pound torque wrench because the action needs
to be removed from the chassis before you can install the FACC.
You may be able to find a low cost wrench online... it doesn't need to be fancy.
I went without the FACC for about 8 years so it shouldn't be a priority.
I do suggest that you buy an NSG one when you find one because they are not easy to find.
The AFG gap did catch my eye, but it being solid is all that matters.

School me on mounting a SAGE stock to an M1A receiver/barrel.
Is this something considerably more involved than installing any other typical stock? Are there special tools or any degree of fitting involved? Mind you, my experience is more with M1 Garands than M1A/M14s.

Fishbed, the worst part is getting the castle nut off. I broke a pair of castle nut pliers trying. One that is off, the instead is dead simple
