I thought the Automag had an excellent trigger, as did the Backup so maybe it is a different gun by AMT.

I have an M1 Garand, check my profile. I love that gun, but .30-06 is too expensive to shoot often. I keep a clip loaded in it though so if I pull the action back I can hear the *PING!*

AMT switches hands frequently it seems, I know currently they have pretty bad QC. HI standard is another company that went down the tubes.

My rangemaster sells m2 ball at 20 cents a round when its in bulk, korean surplus. He has a little store he does as a side biz, hes retired now.

Something about the Automag I both liked an disliked was how the lever that is usually a decocker is just a firing pin block, and doesn't drop the hammer. This allows you to test the trigger without dry firing the gun, but now you have an extra step when decocking the gun.

Can't wait to shoot it though.

Yeah, I shot the POS they call the Automag V. It broke after three shots. The magazine catch broken and the screw holding the sights on hit me in the forehead. I have some shots of me shooting it I'll upload later.
