I think Fulton still uses the old height? Might be worth a phone call. Made by DPMS so there won't be compatibility issues.

Lol. My company is in a similar scenario. We are actually on our second complete tracking system, which is worse than the first miserable failure in many aspects. They just keep humping away at it though. Would have been better off just buying an established system like UPS uses instead of trying to build our own. At this point we all just laugh at the catastrophes, but we aren't getting 3am calls either. The guys in ties sitting at HQ who have no idea what we do day to day think it's a great idea as our stock prices continue to dive and branches get shut down. We have lost 2/3s of our employees in the last 2 years. Common sense says the cost saving cuts are on the wrong end.

That's the one!

And I just read naval ships are expected to field rail guns in the next 5 years. There is a ship being built right now capable of generating enough electricity to power a medium sized city. Imaging a rail gun firing a multi ton projectile from the moon! No defense against that!

Had an owl in my palm tree until it got hit by lightning!

He wrote a book in 1940 where the US became the first nuclear power. In his world it wasn't a bomb, it was radioactive dust dropped from a plane that would kill everyone. Keep in mind this is before the Manhattan project. In the book, the guy in charge of the project knew other nations would developed it soon and the effects would be bad (cold war) so he staged a coup. He had all of his bombers circling every nation on the planet, and threatened to eliminate them if they didn't agree to give up their air force capabilities. if I remember, he had to make an example of someone (Hiroshima) before the rest fell in line. He hated it, but knew he had to do it to maintain world order. Wonder how the world would look if we took that course after ww2.

So...it came up in an earlier thread. SciFi author Robert Heinlein was on point. Had a short day today and nothing new to read so I grabbed an old thin RAH paperback off the shelf. Book is Red Planet, copy 1949. Page 6 : "earth has gotten so musclebound with laws that a man can't breath" Page 13: "these ridiculous regulations offend me. That a free citizen should have to go before a committee, hat in hand, and pray for permission to bear arms-fantastic. Arm your daughter, sir, and pay no attention to petty bureaucrats" 5 min into the book and I remember why I love this guy. Glad he's not around today to see how far we have slipped.

I opened this thread with high hopes....

The stress on the cutout for the barrel pin was the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw these rods. The second thing was the piece of metal shoved into my shiny chamber and torqued on. Probably not an issue either way if you do things "correctly" but I am a disciple of the church of big fkn hammer, so probably not a good option for me.

Hey R2..the CASV actually uses the delta ring like a factory handguard. allows it to drop right in and be free floating. Rock solid. I love those things.

$2K for a chunky magwell?

Costumized...I'm using that lol.

So awesome. need my .460 as a sidearm and you are ready for duty :)

Scifi nerds wet dream right there! Just needs jet packs! Anyone ever read any RIFTS books? The powered armor suits in there are so badness. disclaimer: this nerd enlisted as a tanker around the same time as reading ROBOTECH gen3. hovertanks rock.

^ I was thinking that. Maybe you guys should measure how tall the rail section is? Does JP make rails for different platforms?

MOE+ grips on everything. couple PRI free float tubes. I'd put them on everything if I could afford it.

<3 ACS.

Those off brand foil boxes always come up short. Gotta spend the money for the real stuff. If the GOP candidate is so crappy that Jesse can take votes from them....than we get what we deserve. I'm guessing this will be the case...and am already prepared to vote outside of the major parties, like I did last time Besides...I'll take Ventura over scum bag like Christi.

I'd like to say....despite "the body" being a douche....predator is one of my favorite all time movies.

Damn you. I'm sold on that color combo. I hate FG by itself, but I love the way it changes alongside other colors.

Someone stayed at a Holliday inn last night.

Smoking deal!

Holy cow! That's a mean looking sumuma. Is that foliage green on the stock/grip? That color combo is awesome.

Dammit tom...not right before bed please...

Seems to me like that is SEAL business, and they could probably care less what the average Joe thinks.
