  1. I have two FA Barrels & they out shoot me with out a problem , but with the LW Barrel , I can't see you going wrong there ether .
  2. That's a cop out . Why can't they say its DPMS compatible or with an AR 10 ? <dontknow>
  3. You can have the Barrel treated to be black , Nitrated of course is an option , Creakote also , both permeant finishes . Paint works also , just easy to scratch off with some paints. Look up Stainless Steel blackening, there are products out there to blacken it just like cold blueing a part .
  4. Looks good .
  5. Thats a good one .
  6. I see nothing about it on their sight , but they will work on PA 10 & TAC 10 uppers , what ever pattern they are . Call or email them to make sure .
  7. I find it strange they said they bought CProducts when the quality was going down . I think I read some posts in another Forum where he was saying the quality went down when the new owners took over & made changes to his design . Could be he was pissed for loosing or selling the CO. or what ever made him go in another direction . Rebuilding their reputation ? On someone else's design & name , could be , I would give them a test to see how they do when they put them on the market ,against the old design . I have about twenty of the original CProducts & they are fine mags . They are all Stainless , I think , some of the Finnish comes off from use , but not a big deal. If the Lancers were not so expensive ( twice the price of the PMag ) I would get some & probably will to test them , like all the others I have done , but right now the twenty & twenty five rd. PMags are the best available for the price . My DPMS mags work fine also , I've had no problems with them .
  8. Just as Matt wrote , the first stage is just to set up the second stage & I guess you can say it feels like smooth creep . 9 oz. is kind of light for a trigger pull on an AR .
  9. Don't have sex with this chic & post the video , you will be pissing through a tube . <hump> http://metro.co.uk/2015/02/03/girl-poured-acid-on-boyfriends-penis-after-he-released-sex-tape-5047162/
  10. Nice they got the Horses out of there . Not sure that was a full Propane tank . I witnessed one that a lit candle was put on top of it & that thing launched , big time . Wished I had video back then .
  11. I have extras also , but have been " lucky " lately , I have a cardboard box that stops them , well mostly <laughs>
  12. The words , luck or lucky , describe an event or out come , that you had no input in. You may have been lucky in your life & never knew it . Now , bad luck , can be pretty much described the same way . Example ; I was putting in the detent for the AR Pivot pin & that bastard took off into space & I don't have another ( bad luck ) WOW , I can't believe I found the little sucker , even though it made a complete trip to space & back . ( Good luck or just plain lucky ) <lmao> You can't tell us nothing like that never happen in your life <dontknow> <laughs>
  13. I'm a believer that the Barrel/chamber on any firearm makes it a decent shooting MOA or a super sub MOA shooter , you pretty much get what you pay for . Of course there are other factors , but the Barrel is the base for any real good shooter . IMO <dontknow> Find or wait for the Barrel that you want .
  14. Does that make him ,loquacious ? Just asking . <laughs>
  15. Robo , just how long did it take to get your Barrel again ? <lmao> I couldn't help myself !
  16. Sell your AR15 & buy a DPMS G2, even if you have to save up to get it . That being my first choice , if you want to get into a 308AR right off the bat & don't want to wait , you need to look at what you want to do with this rifle , then pick the one that comes closest to what you want . Sounds like you are going to customize it any way from you other thread , right ?
  17. With the length of the hand guard you want , you will probably have to go to a low profile Gas Block . I don't think the railed gas block thats on the barrel will let you slip one over . <dontknow>
  18. Wow .
  19. Damn thats hard to hear , but heard too often . As long as there are motorcycles , there will be accidents & speed kills , I learned it very early riding . Didn't stop me from going fast Bar hopping though , glad I made it through that phase.
  20. The" Rule " strikes again ! <thumbsup>
  21. If he would have made that catch & it was a touchdown , it would have been called the greatest catch of the game . I'm sure the Pat's "D " was expecting a run , so probably why the SeaHawks passed . Just didn't work the way it was designed .Their luck just ran out .
  22. And so it ends , That ending was unbelievable .
  23. Deflate the Sea Hawks , Go Pat's. <lmao> I'm only saying that because Brady was my first string QB in my Fantasy League . <thumbsup> I also really don't care myself ,but will watch it any way .
  24. Around 20" ? Fulton Armory sells Krieger Criterion Barrels & as said , Rainier , with its own Barrels along with the other manufacturers Barrels they sell . There's actually quite a few really good barrels out, for the 308AR market .
  25. I have two rifle length FA barrels with std AR 15 rifle length Gas Tubes & no problems. One on a DPMS Upper Receiver & the other on a Tactical Machining Upper receiver & also used a SI Defense Upper Receiver & none of them had any issues . I don't see it as an issue with the Gas Tube . I see it as another issue with no Standard for 308AR's . All Upper Receivers ( or Barrels ) not being to some sort of standard as compared to the MilSpec standard of the AR 15/M16/M4. Its why building an 308AR from some manufacturers, issues such as these come up & why building an 308AR can be a challenge with some configurations of different manufacturers components . Doesn't matter who made them of how well they are made . I have two DPMS Lower receivers with matching DPMS Uppers ( one a TM Upper ) & they work flawlessly , I have a early CMMG Lower & SI Defense Billet upper & that combo will not work reliably with the LR PMags , Any Steel mag works fine . This CMMG Billet Lower was made many years before the PMag was out , so I really can't blame CMMG , but it just goes to show , that all 308AR Parts or components don't play well together . The different length Gas tube at FA ,is probably just a AR 10 Tube , the measurements are just too close . There has been issues in the past where some using the AR 10 Gas tube, on a DPMS configuration, have had issues because its too long & switching to a std . AR 15 Gas Tube , fixed the problem , so you see it can get compacted building an 308 AR . The good thing is , its an inexpensive component to change out . You can blame the manufactures if you want , but it all comes down to , YOU , your building a Rifle , You made yourself a Hobbyist Gunsmith & stuff sometimes happens when building a Custom rifle <dontknow>
