Yugo 8mm Jammomatic baby... I think I told you I found the reason why the rounds are hanging up in the T-slot... Shhh.... Don't tell anyone I could use some more worthless 8mm cheap... It's really no big deal... The ammo was not made to work in a t-slot worth a tinkers damn... So I'll probibly pick up some romainian and some more yugo while it's around...

Its all good in the neighborhood... I'll load up some .308 and run it to get my respect back... Not used to havin' the hang-ups but what the hay...

It's a lot of fun just tryin' to get it steaming the first time... I did that off of 3 belts... The elevation helped I believe I was at about 2000 ft. above sea level... :bounce: Think I was putting to much soluable too... :peep:

That's kick-ass for "no cranks allowed" :beer: I still hope to get a w/c put together on one of my kits.

Didn't even notice anyone posted in here... Slick

The trigger and sear that I have in that gun is the WLA setup I'm still working with it however with the other guns that I have built with the KMP style the WLA is certainly falling short...

Havin' a fast finger helps and when the yugo doesn't jam I can drop 100 rounds with no problem just about as fast as usin' a crank...

Might be a good thing that you have waited so long Slick as everyone is still making improvements on there products... :headbang:
