Agent47 Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 uuuhhh...a bit off...but it's okay...I guess... box mag is supposed to be completely below the receiver... Link to post Share on other sites
scooberoo Posted November 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 It looks like Ares made 2 versions of the lowere receiver. One magwell was cut in half while one magwell wasn't cut. The cut version allows direct attachment of the boxmag to the lower receiver. The non-cut version requires the use of a box mag adapter. Use the pic below for reference. Check out the 2 lower receivers. Somehow HurricanE had to sold the feeding issue. Hey, HurricanE, if you guys are listening, your prices are too high, hehehe. Hurricane also used an older version of the Shrike. Above is the newer version. Here's Ares' older version below (just like HurricanE's version) : Link to post Share on other sites
LeMongelo Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 uuuhhh...a bit off...but it's okay...I guess... box mag is supposed to be completely below the receiver... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What scooberoo said...ARES built two types of lowers. Also, with those pics it's way too hard to tell how accurate it is to the real counterpart. From those pics, I don't see any flagrant differences...who knows. Link to post Share on other sites

Kukailimoku Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 No fake links? I'd only want it if it resembled the belt-fed version. Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise it wouldn't be a shrike. On the real Shrike the box is there to hold the ammo and nothing more...much like the 249 Link to post Share on other sites

Looking at the Hurricane one I didn't see the feed hole. I thought there was another non-beltfed version. Link to post Share on other sites
