Made from hardened tool steel and parkerized. M1A Gas plug is vented and bored 58% greater volume in the plug area. Greater volume and venting equals 2600 psi less pressure (avg.) on op-rod. Cleaning drill with handle, and tip cleaner included.
Service rifle legal 1/64" hole per CMP rules!
Has the same appearance and configuration as original; CMP 4th Edition #4-13-B-b.
This part looks and fits right, and works very well. It makes recoil with heavy bullets and stout powder loads feel more like a Garand with ball ammo, reduces case stretch in my supermatch by ..004, and pretty much eliminates extractor damage to the case heads. The cases also don't chew up the edge of the stock as much, and land in a tighter pattern for easier pick up. I have had no failures to feed or extract, even with 135SMK's loaded to 2800 fps. The cleaning tools that are included are well made, but the cleaning wires are so light that they can be easily lost. Making a flag out of brightly colored tape at the handle end of the wire solves that problem.
