About 8 days after placing the order I got tracking info. According to his website, these are made to order, so it can take a few days, but it was not too bad a wait.
Yes, you just remove the slide, insert a feedramp part into the frame, insert the tabs into the upper and click it into place. Taking it apart is no worse than removing the slide. Dismantling the upper for close cleaning is 9 screws & one spring. All of the parts are well made and thought out. Nothing unnecessary or overly complicated.
I will need to get it threaded, as the manufacturer doesn't do this, even with the ones with the muzzle brake, which is pressed on. So far, my only real complaint. As soon as I can get Claude to thread the barrel, the Osprey goes on for testing. Being a blowback design, I expect that there will likely be some bolt noise, but that's to be expected from a semi-auto action.
Coach and I (and maybe Tyler, too) are going to the range (JCSC out near MT. Washington, Mike get ready for some potential new members) today and I intend to test fire and zero the scope then. I will post an AAR and let you guys know how it performs.
So far, including 4 Kriss mags, and not counting the G21 frame, I have ~$625 in it. The kit was just under $500, the rest was parts to suit my taste to finish it. I got this one with the full length picatinney rail, but there is a quad rail option avaialble, too.
I am seriously stoked as I have wanted a.45 ACP carbine for some time and this is the first viable option I've seen that didn't involve snake oil or tax stamps, and the Kriss 30 rd mags! I mean, what more could you ask than massive destructive capability out of such a small package in as little time as it takes to squeeze the trigger 30 times! This little dragon is going to be all out BOSS BEAST MODE! (Insert my best maniacal mad scientist laugh here)
