For some reason it seems a little to far away and awkward to flip. SAtill want one however.
No problem at all. Same location (grip to thumb), 1/3 throw compared to 1/2 throw, and ambidextrous too boot.

No I haven't tried different lubes, very happy with TW-25B lube or CLP and Birchwood Casey Gun Scrubber for solvent.

I really, really like this rifle, just a tad heavy compared to an M-4.


BTW, I was very upset when my department gave our HK416s away, very stupid for having already purchased them. Very fine rifle!!!

Also, when you (if) you get up my way, you're welcome to shoot mine.
