Gun and gear reviews MK-15 is peak

Absolutely in love with this thing. 500 rounds yesterday with out issue (I know it’s not a lot)

only thing is it’s stiff for about the first 20 rounds. The bolt wouldn’t close on 5 rounds. So shot 5 4 round mags then it took full mags no problem. The bolt would also close at first on the empty mag like it had another round to go. (Only happened on first 2 mags) believe it was also just because it was stiff. After it loosened up It was smooth sailing. (Give your rifle a chance to loosen up a bit and don’t immediately think it’s fucked)

Also takes the crossmags no problem.
Very well built rifle though. All metal parts including the stock.
QC issues have all been fixed from what I can see (charging handle digging in, etc)

Just a friendly suggestion, you may want to look into cheek risers.

If your current stance works for you, that's great!

However, you may find your neck and shoulders get stiff more easily (when shooting) as you age.

I'm glad you're having fun!

You can see how tense his neck and face are in that position. Needs to adjust something. You should be able to shoulder your rifle and aim through your sight without having to move your head much from a neutral position

Yes I agree. I’m having to raise my shoulder up really high. I like the idea of a cheek riser
