Question for my fellow M1A owners

[red_zr24x4]

Any of my fellow M1A owners install a Sparrow Hawk dummy Fire control setup on a USGI stock?
SparrowHawkM14 - Hawk's M14 Dummy Kits
Scroll down to the "Hawks AMBI kit" it contains the button and the switch so you can set it up either way. I'm really thinking about picking up a USGI stock and kit just for S**t's and giggles.

I've had trouble getting the connector arm to sit right with commercial receivers without dramatically cutting into the stock. I ended up giving up and just using the "button" part to fill the hole in the stock. (Essentially, I bought a "standard" kit and only ended up using an "eco" kit's worth of parts.)

This was the case with the Springfield Armory Inc., Fulton, and Polytech receivers that I tried.

Thanks, this is the info I'm looking for.

As you can see in this picture, I have one of his lockout kits on mine. The SAI does require some filing or sanding of the connector arm to make fit. but it looks good when you get it done. Looks like it should.
Be warned, when you reassemble the rifle after a cleaning, you will need to push the connector forward and sometimes you may need to lightly pry it outward a little to get the reciever back in the stock.

I had one of the same kits that you have above and you are correct. I had to do the same thing that you mentioned above. Other than that it worked great and looked great. Enjoy.
