Back in June I sent Ted Yost my Milspec to be upgraded. I got a little bored and that's dangerous. I picked up a GI and decided I would try a little metal work at home.
The result are VERY mild upgrades to a Springfield GI. I posted some initial picks a while ago. It's done now.
What I did:
Ed Brown slide stop
Ed Brown extractor
Ed Brown firing pin and stop
Fitted a new MSH
EMC wide spur hammer slightly bobbed so it won't bite me
Real steel thumb safety
Kings bushing (I really like how it protects the barrel crown)
Kings #104 front sight
Yost retro rear sight
Greider medium length trigger
VZ canvas grips
Thin grip screws and bushings
Wolff Spring Kit
Wilsons sear spring
I was only able to shoot at 50' today, but it's dead on and 100% reliable after 500 rounds.
Here are some pics. The Catapillar machines in the background are for scale. It really is that big.
I really had fun with this. I know it's mild and not involved, but I'm pleased with the results.
