How do you like the APA bottom metal? Would like to use one on a rifle if I can ever come across one. Very happy so far, only ten mag dumps so far, but really like how it is integrated into the trigger guard. nice clean look and functions better on the hunting platform. If it was a tactical rifle, the M5 style is where it is at.
