    Gunz are icky.
    Picked one up a few days ago.
    Had it out a couple of times.
    Davetex is correct. Use 40grn ammo.
    I'll add this: When loading mags take the time to insure the rounds are correctly inserted and load the mag two rounds short/down.
    When fully loaded the spring pressure pushing up on the rounds is extremely strong. This has caused me a few failures to feed on 2nd round fired.
    Accuracy wise its okay.
    Have a red dot on mine right now. With that and my poor eyesight its meh.
    You would need to install a correct scope to fully test accuracy.
    Trigger is a spongy but with use you'll get used to it.
    Overall I like it a lot. It a cool little carbine and certainly different looking.
    I'm still scratching my head on what to do for a sling.
    Ordered a vertical foregrip last evening. Going to try that out when it arrives.

    I have the pmr30 & want the cmr after shooting Moonpies yesterday. With a red dot & spotter on a scope you can walk your shots into the bulls eye @ 50yards. I'm sure with a 3x9 you can get some good groups.

    Get rid of the open sights and get the proper optics, problem solved. It's not like your talking shooting a tack driver here, more like minute of center mass then head shot. Either way you can only use one type of sights at a time and IMO the optics offer a better choice over all.

    Got to shoot Moonpie's CMR yesterday also and enjoyed it. I think we only had a couple of malfunctions between the three of us. I'm a pretty inexperienced rifle shooter so I think it's more accurate than I am.

    If you're wanting one, I don't think it's too bad. Would I buy one for myself? Maybe but there are a whole bunch of other things higher on my list.

    It definitely makes sense to have one if you also have a PMR 30 or want one.
