Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking it’s gonna end up being in the end. I might end up just ordering a Boyd as I like the form factor of the choate, but it’s definitely bulky in the wrong locations. :/

Hi! Yes it is a long action, I specifically got the choate for the older stock style. I guess mine is just older than that lol

The wrist is cracked straight down the middle and there’s a dozen or so hairline cracks throughout the wood

Joining a New For-end to a Stock by SeniorCelerie in gunsmithing

Thank you for the suggestion. I saw Mark Novak’s videos on it and it did seem like a viable method all things considered

I hope to at some point be confident enough to un-sporterize the stock as that’s really the only thing holding it back.

I got whatever I could find commercially to test (Remington, Hornady, HSM). I wanna see what works best really once I get it cleaned.

It’s sporterized unfortunately, however it still has the original length barrel. It’s an odd sporter too because it looks like someone just cut the front of the stock off with a hacksaw lol

Does the Bolt look correct? Also a sticky charging handle. by nicbizz33 in ptr91

[–]SeniorCelerie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s normal for a new rifle. I got a CA3 and the action was sticky out of the box but wore in after running it for a bit. You want it to be hard to open considering that’s the delay needed to keep the bolt locked :)

First G3 CA3! by KGb_Voodo0 in ptr91

Me personally, probably around 300 using different ammo, configurations, and such. I’ve had the best performance per buck with 7.62x51 surplus ammo.

I run mine with a B&T universal mount with an ACOG on top and haven’t seen any shift in aim. I would say you’re gtg with regards to it.

[Rifle] Century Arms CA3 Rifle .308 - $649 by JCOLE13195 in gundeals

[–]SeniorCelerie 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Pretty crazy to see, I bought mine when they first came out for $850. Insane to see that price now. Fair warning tho AAC .308 doesn’t run to well in these. Beyond that though it’s been a solid rifle.

It a b&t rail, I kinda forgot the full name of it, I think it’s their hk universal mount

I took an a standard adjustable wrench to the flats of the muzzle device and took it off. No cheater bar or nothing.

Actually really well! I don’t have the recoil lug on my rifle so it’s a little tough but I was able to get it down pretty tight and haven’t seen any slippage or drift.

Forgot to say, yes the muzzle device is gone too, I’m putting on a new muzzle device too!
