[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 179229, member: 12"] there are only minor 3 parts that are compatible with the ULA arms of Melvin Forbes, so beware of that. Colt farmed all the parts out to the "cheapest" contractor and had problems in final fitting which led to their demise. Still a very decent gun for the price, just that any broken parts will have to be hand made by your smith. Last time I talked with Melvin about the Colt Light rifles he was trying to track down the vendors and buy all the spare parts. This was a couple years ago. So he would be my first choice to go to for replacement parts. If the price is right, I would go for it. BH [/QUOTE]
