  1. I quoted both of your posts for reference. Your question was at what length do you switch from carbine to rifle. Rifle buffer goes in rifle tube on rifle stock. Carbine buffers go in carbine tubes…with the only issue being there are different length tubes and different length buffers with the problem amplified by different length springs. the lighter weight buffers have been created by companies “shaving weight” and cost on their end. It doesn’t work as reliably with all the mixed bag of parts out there. They then had rifles that seemed over gassed, so they drilled the ports smaller in hopes of cutting that back. Stick with the basics and get it functioning reliably, then change parts one at a time if you have the desire to do something more with it. The armalite kit is mostly recommended because it’s undeniably proven. It works. Many others work too, but this is a known batch of parts that can be ordered together and it will function. The KAK and Sprinco Orange recommended by edge will work well also. There may be many others. There are a lot of great threads debating the buffer set ups. The one thing that always comes back as “problem solved” is that armalite kit.
  2. When you have a rifle length buffer tube. You can run either system with any gas system. Just depends on wether you’re running collapsible stock or a rifle stock. Weights are about the same, spring and buffer lengths are different. @Mrj209 how lubed up are you? Get that thing dripping wet. Replace that buffer system first. Then get a few boxes through it.

    There’s been no shortage of rubber bands for my California approved rifles. Lucky us.
  4. I like the feel of that stock. It shoots nice and easy.
  5. Looks good man!
  6. This sucks a lot and you’re gonna die…isn’t that the phrase on the Welcome to Phoenix sign?
  7. The ones we have from FX look just like that and supposedly they do…we’ll see. That was my first question on the “infinitely adjustable” scope mounts.
  8. You can change one. They pivot.
  9. My dad has a set of those on the new air rifle. Seem like they work alright. Should be just fine on a 22, though unless you’re going long I don’t see the need for them. More moving parts equals more places for problems in my totally unqualified opinion.
  10. A higher capacity mag loses the last round hold open ? What the heck is that all about? Give and take I guess.
  11. A good one for sure.
  12. Ah crap…and FDE fan. You and 98 are gonna get along just fine. welcome from San Diego
  13. Like drug dealers. The first little bit is always free. Or their business model just didn’t work out. hey, I got a space in my safe you can store some of you guns (the Cali legal ones of course)….for free….until you want them back.
  14. Lmao @ (those fucking crooks)…providing you a space to upload your photos “for free”. There’s gotta be a catch somewhere.
  15. I think that’s only fair. I like the idea.
  16. I don’t even remember. I’ll get it out tomorrow and take a look.
  17. Well crap. I was going to offer up one of my shorter risers if you didn’t like the tall. I guess you could still use it to see what you like better and then buy the other in OD if you liked it. It’ll be good with the high though, I doubt you’ll be disappointed.
  18. Or he’d been into the bourbon.
  19. What color….?
  20. I bought a few to try out. I like the high one. Works good for the oldest boy too.
  21. I got to explain to a co-worker the other day that it’s just the opposite. People are animals too. me: “I bet your not the religious type?” Her: “not really” me: Also guessing you’re more in the evolution side, no?” Her: “pretty much” me: “so riddle me this…if we all evolved from the same single cell amoeba, why do you think you’re so much better than all other living things? We evolved just as they did, right? Somehow we must have evolved to be better than them though, and now we get to interfere with evolution by saving things that we deem worthy. What makes us so special we get to decide? Can’t we just let nature take its course?” Her: 🤯
  22. I love mine. Someday it’ll get a barrel, but this works great. It’s my go to for squirrel hunting if I’m able to use the 22. That’s all gonna change when I buy my PCP, but right now it’s the one to use.
  23. Hmmm…that doesn’t sound right.
  24. Anyone need a 2007 Yukon? 200k miles. Will trade for PCP.
  25. I am sooo out of money right now it isn’t even funny. I don’t think there’s even room on the card for one of these. I guess if I skip buying the slabs for the countertops tomorrow I might be able to swing it…
