Great , I'll get one , now make one for a 308 !

Nice , keep us up to date on testing .

Pull a bullet & toss it on a scale , well, maybe not, toss it <laughs>.

Checked out a CMMG 308 today because he said it would not hold a group with match ammo . Long story , short version , he tried all the things with scopes mounts & have others shoot it . I watched as he put a new scope mount on & all was secure . @ 50 yrds. it was shooting high , brought it down into the black & then shot three more slow shots & it when back to shooting high again . I was watching with a spotting scope, I asked if he was having any problems with his trigger release & he said , they all felt good , I went over to check the mount again & found that the Barrel was loose ! Well , that was different , he asked if he should send it back to the factory & <lmao> I took that real good <lmao> , I'm having him come over with the rifle & we will look at it in some depth .Hay , he's my heart Doctor , gotta take care of him .

I'll take a guess , Lake City brass , 2011 ?

I tumble with media shortly first to clean brass before lubing & sizing, depriming , then the S/S media makes them like new , inside & out .

What the gov. should be looking into is why these young people are doing this & how did they get that way . Movie & game industry's are part of the problem , but they way things are changing in society , family values or lack of . I think with Hollywood & its game industry , we are breeding these wacko's . Now could the Gov. be also breeding them or conditioning them , well , I know it can be done , but to what extent is any ones guess. Banning any thing is not the answer , at least logically, but that has never stopped a good old gun grabber from a lie or making up there own truths. As I said before , Join the gun organizations & buy gift memberships for family or friends . Only numbers will make these people see they have a fighting group of voters for the second amendment . NRA has where you can buy one for a service member for $10. Be nice get some one the American riflemen, who is in the field or on duty in some god forsaken place .

Finally got around to disassembling the 870 & ordered a" Accuracy Speaks "hammer set up for it & will order the Timney 870 fix later . The hammer sear is just gone , not sure if you can see it in the photo's , but it sheared right off.

Its odd that no trial will happen for good info on this stuff. I find it real odd that the same rifle manufacturer was used in a string of these shootings . Is the Bushmaster the favorite of mass murderers ?

I thought the State Police cleared this up & two hand guns & a Bushmaster AR 15 rifle was used . That vid. is over a month old ?

Done deal

if its a short bbl & ya plan on using a suppressor , piston would be my choice .

same here

I also renewed & I gave a membership as a gift to my shooter sister in law for $ 20 & I gave a gift of membership to a service member for an extra $ 10 . I just added two to our ranks , numbers will get those butt heads in DC to think !

Its been a long time since we talked about this , but do the FA 308 uppers still come in the std rail height & if so DPMS must be making them special for FA ?

Here's the difference in an AR 15 & a DPMS 308 bolt stops. The dented case could be from several things , wrong buffer/spring , sticking extractor ( holding the case too long ) , over gased (if they ported the gas port in the barrel wrong , not likely ,but possible, this could be related to a wrong buffer/spring ) And there is more that could cause cycling problems. Bolt bounce comes to mind & may be related to wrong components also , make sure you have the right components in there first.

Got a JP VTac rifle length hand guard & a YH 12" rail to go on it from Brownells ( thanks for the help with it Drew <thumbsup>) On another note , the free shipping code didn't work this time from Brownells ?

Ya , its 2007 again.

Well ,lets see, the BC is there for a few reasons , weight ( will explain below ) , alinement of components (BCG) & there mechanisms for bolt extraction & ejection , harnessing the gas impulse from the propellent gases ( some say its a piston ). The weight is used in some ways as a timing thing for case cool down prior to extraction( this is also why there is travel in the bolt, with in the BC, when unlocking ) , if the case was still tightly adhered to the chamber walls (ignition pressure ), you would get a lot of cases stuck in the chamber & no extraction or ripped up case rims . The carrier key helps alien it all & redirect the propellent gases to the BCG. You can lighten the weight , but you have to do other things to compensate for this weight loss , adj. gas block , heaver buffer / spring . The CUP or pressure of these firearms are quite substantial & that in its self is a good reason to have a robust BCG. I tried to keep it simple & probably missed some . <dontknow>

The gas rings do multiple things , they do some what seal the propellent gases from the chamber area, as do piston rings in an internal combustion engine , how would an engine run with out them & what kind of crap would be in the oil pan/oil ? They also seal the area behind them to permit the propellent gases to move the bolt carrier & the bolt rearward for extraction of the fired case. ( this is why some say a DI system, is a piston system ) It is a timing thing as far as bolt travel & unlocking . The gas rings do have a part in all this . I have heard of people leaving them out entirely , but ya never hear back , of long term complications , if any . Be safe & ya could of left them with one of us to keep the round count up for testing . <thumbsup>

F'en Communists . This how it starts

http://dsgarms.com/ No need to call yourself names .

These damn things are hard enough to feed , let alone making them belt fed . Its why I never bought one for my self . Now others , if they want to feed the damn things , that's ok . So basically 98 , Its Ok with me if ya get one . <thumbsup>

Good job !

Now ya did it ! <thumbsup>
