Very difficult decision between the 1301 and the M4, but the 1301's improved ergos won me over.

Buy extra o-rings for the firing pin and firing pin retaining pin. O-rings are cheap unless you don't have one.

They rip pretty easily but they are standard metric. I will have a look tomorrow if I remember.
