First Range report: 4/2/15
Some pics the build are up. First 60 rounds through it at range for function check and make sure cycling right, also sighted in the M21 red dot. She is a beauty to shoot, every shot was smooth has like zero recoil with brake and carrier helping as well. I picked up every shell, and everyone that was ejected landed in the exact same pile at the 3:30-4:00 mark so perfect ejection for a Mid length gas system running a H1 buffer and standard buffer spring. Ammo was zqi ss109 and went bang zero complaint from that. Were almost 15 people at range and almost everyone one took a shot was were impressed. Next range day will be to do a 25/50/100 yard accuracy test then onto shooting some steel and video of the other brakes to try out. I have always shot a MB556K on my rifles and Lantac has changed the way i look at brakes, slightly less recoil, the recoil it does have goes straight into shoulder and dissipates. Only thing i see people not liking the Dragon for so far it that its not Suppressor compatible, but they are in the works i believe on one in the future. Going to pull apart carrier at 200-300 round make and see how easy it is to wipe down. More to come thanks for the interest on the build.

I'm most curious about the bolt.

I recently bought a reduced friction nitride Ares bolt after Oli700's recommendation that has so far impressed me, so I'm curious how yours would stack up. It feels almost like it's on bearings.

I also recently purchased a Mega Arms tactical/adjustable trigger that has a SUPER short pull and reset once I tuned it for my lower. It is a really nice trigger. Especially for $60.

So I'm tagging for updates to see what your opinion is after you test things.
 
the way it works is a cartridge goes in a magazine, magazine goes in the magazine well, pull back charging handle, pick target, press trigger then tell us how neat you think the parts are
