.308 AR Free Float Tubes, Hand Guards, Quadrails
TacBlade replied to imschur's topic in .308AR Parts
imschur I like that one also!!! I have it on my new build!!! <thumbsup> -
I am comparing the AR10 style charging handle to the DPMS style charging handle and need and Overall length on both? I have a DPMS style upper and of course the charging handle and I have what I believe to be an AR10 style handle. The AR10 style I believe is about 1/2" longer? The reason I am doughting this yet again, is that I found a company that is selling charging handles for the AR.308 style rifle and it says on their website, that one charging handle fits both styles? Thanks for any help here!

I am pretty sure now that the AR10 charging handle is about 1/2" longer than the DPMS CH. I am not 100 percent sure, cuz I don't have a AR10 upper to try it in. The one that fits in my CMMG upper is 1/2 shorter, so it has to be an AR10 handle. I am pretty sure that the AR15 handles are even shorter yet than either one of these? Thanks

Slop between the upper and lower?
TacBlade replied to TacBlade's topic in DPMS LR-308 General, Technical Discussion
The Accu-Wedge does not work in the .308 AR, at least not in the CMMG lower. Its to big? -
He does GREAT Work!! On my .50 Cal AR upper, I had to install the Manufactures Heavy Hammer. That brought my pull weight to almost 10 lbs, yes, 10 lbs. I had Bill do a trigger job and it is now a crisp 3-4 lbs...Very, Very Nice!!!

Yes, that sounds like a good idea! I think I will order one up also. Guess what? JP sent out the Bolt and Carrier today! I got a notice of shipping in an email. That was pretty quick, considering I just talked to them yesterday!!! I will be able to fire my new build finally!! But, like you said above, I should get one of the Go/No Go gauges first?

This is an old post, but there is a strap wrench made from rubber that works just like the chain wrench you mentioned. You can get one that is sold for guns out of Brownells or you can go to Sears and get the same thing, but is sold to loosen stuff like oil filters. They both are made the same way, but way better than and not so scarry as the Chain Wrench!

Why shorter barrels may often be better - Article

My short barrel works pretty good, my wife always has a smile on her face!!! <laughs> <lmao> <thumbsup> -
What is the best Bolt Carrier Group available for the .308 AR?
TacBlade replied to TacBlade's topic in General Discussion
That looks like it could be pretty nice! A very good reason to start another build when I am done here shortly with my current one? -
Just got off the phone with JP and they told me that they have plenty of Carriers ready, but are waiting on the bolts. I tried to get them to just sell me the carrier, but they would not. I can get the bolt right now from Brownells. Just to point that out to everyone else, Brownells has the JP bolt in stock and they are very nice. I can get them for $10.00 cheaper at the dealer cost plus shipping. I am not a dealer, but have a business license on file at Brownells so I can get a little discount.

Lining up holes on barrel and gas block?
TacBlade replied to TacBlade's topic in DPMS LR-308 General, Technical Discussion
No instructions came with it? Was I not suppose to put it up as tight as it will go on the barrel? -
I may learn something new here yet again today? I bought a charging handle way back from a guy that advertised a .308 AR charging handle for sale. I then bought my DPMS upper and it came with a charging handle. The first charging handle is about 1/2" longer than the one that came with my DPMS upper? Fill me in on the details here?
