    I've shot mine, it is worth every penny! It is an absolute blast & launches cans just like the videos online.

    One thing to note, I had to mortar mine almost every time to eject (tried a cheap BCA BCG first and then my SOLGW BCG)


    Anyone shoot theirs yet? Sadly mine is still in the box.

    Were you using the blanks available through the group buy? Maybe others will work better.

    I didn't have any problems clearing the blanks, but I wasn't launching anything so there was no back pressure.

    I was using a factory Sig M-400 BCG. I'll report once I launch an actual can or golf ball...

    Sorry for the delay -- I was using the blanks from the group buy. I'll report back next time I get out on some acreage to test! Good chance my can upper is ever so slightly out of spec if you guys have no issues cycling. I bought a knockoff raptor CH for mine which will give me a little more real estate to yank on next time.

    Off topic -- fingers crossed these don't end up being considered AOW's with the ATF getting their teeth back
