[ARCHIVED THREAD] - First Rounds Fired

Posted: 3/27/2002 6:47:07 PM EDT

Received my Bushmaster M4 last week, but only today did I get my first chance to go to a range.

Haven't fired an M-16/M4/ar-15 in about 10 years, so try not to laugh too hard.

First picture is a grouping fired using the iron sights straight out of the box, no adjustments made.

Second picture is the Reflex II after adjustments.

Had to shoot at an indoor range, so was limited to 25 meters as the max distance.
Ammo was Winchester Q3131A from Ammoman.com
Also tested 2 used Colt 20 round mags from Georgia Precision Shooting.

Very happy to report not a single malfunction or stoppage of any kind.

Damn!! That mini-y muzzle brake is LOUD!

Not that impressive groupings, I know...but it is all user error, I am sure. Give me some time.

Not bad for 10 years.

I wouldn't worry about the groups you fired. Everyone is allowed to have a bad day now and then. Glad to hear it all worked out for you. Now time to buy more mags
