I bought mine 37 years ago. Been a long long time since I pulled it out of the case. I did a quick field strip to look it over, and glad I did. The polyurethane buffer pad disintegrated in my hands. So, I look for a replacement pad. I was surprised by the amount of companies that make after-market parts for these guns. I even got a bigger button for the bolt, which I always disliked. Anyone else replace the buffer pad? It seems pretty straight forward, just use a punch to knock out the spring retainer pin. ___________________ "He who is without oil, shall throw the first rod" Compressions 9.5:1 | ||

The M11 has experienced quite the renaissance in the last several years, thanks to companies like Lage producing radically different uppers.   | |||

Yeah, I had to replace mine. I bought a sheet of neoprene or something and cut a square out of it. LMK if you want some and I'll send you a hunk if I can find it. --------------------------- My hovercraft is full of eels. | |||

Goodness, I had no idea the SWD M11 had escalated in value like that. I looked up some used ones on various sites... Woah! I bought mine for 250.00 back in the day... ___________________ "He who is without oil, shall throw the first rod" Compressions 9.5:1 | |||

Got mine in 1986 for $169.00 Me and 2 friends picked up 3 with consecutive serial numbers. I'm the only one that still have one. and I too had to replace my buffer. Came apart while shooting it and the bolt knob came up and locked it up. | |||

bought mine in 1984 for #218 dealer cost, (add $200 for the stamp) sold in 1995 or so for $3000, someone had to have it, and I had not shot it in years as an SOT, I have sold 3 or 4 in the past few years at $8K + https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

Rogue, you are an evil man! It led me down a rabbit hole. Here is my 37 year old rig:  Then I found this:  Adjustable sights, side cocking, and a rail. Now I have this:  ___________________ "He who is without oil, shall throw the first rod" Compressions 9.5:1 | |||

 Now you need one of Lage's 31k uppers... 71 round Suomi drums make it even easier to turn your 9mm ammo into smoke, noise, and ear-to-ear grins. | |||

Wait, what? |
I have an SWD M11 sub gun from the mid 90’s. Seeing what class III stuff is bringing, I am seriously tempted to let it go. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||
