    I think removing the accelerator is an improvement.
    When dealing with liberals, always attribute to malice what would ordinarily be attributed to incompetence.

    Because seating the enbloc doesn't release the bolt. You have to pull back the op rod after inserting the enbloc to release it.

    Ryan, it works just like the M14 when the accelerator is removed. If you have an old op rod catch around try it. Stu

    Except the enbloc ejects after the last round. With the Holbrook they don't. I was thinking about getting a Holbrook.

    Stu, I have several of them and like them. I have a little AR in my hands and sometimes it's much easier to use a Holbrook. You want me to send you one to try out?

    Thanks Bill. I'm going to get one after I get my WRA stock. Thanks for the offer though. Stu
