Carl, may I ask why you wanted it shorter? Can't wait to order one, couple more paychecks.

I'm going to use the short breech on a 2240 I am working on.  Not another stubby project but something sort of similar, me thinks.

Very light!
I am going to put it on my Dad's shooter. Seems he is whispering from heaven "I really do like that breech you made me son, but that AR Breech is the BOMB!!!"




Yes sir it sure looks nice Rich cant wait to see it mounted.

Wow Rich, that did come out nice.  The breech looks awesome mounted your gun.  Great job and an excellent choice.  :-* :-* :-*

Did you notice immediately how much lighter the gun felt in your hand as you shot it?

Very nice Rich, looks sweet and I bet the weight reduction will really help when shooting offhand.

Thanks guys, So far I'm liking it a lot. I took a half dozen shots, but still getting that rear site tuned in at the monument.
As for the weight, I have another pistol with the same configuration with the Crosman long steel breech and rb grips. I did not really notice a difference until I picked up each one. There is a difference, but not to bad. The other pistol is going to get scopped for benchrest shooting and the other will eventually see a better rear site!!! Lighter for offhand, monster for the rest.
Been wanting to do this for years. Now I finally have enough parts to pull it off.
