  1. There will be a small lip on the extension/buffer tube that will fill that gap. No worries!
  2. I have more than 40 mags....and 1000rds...and I'm I vet. Looks like a recipe for disaster
  3. DNPs gun inspired me when I first saw it. Love that beast.
  4. That delta doesn't match the receiver height of either generation. Its a bit higher. They have the SPR sleeve for the older "high" receiver to make it even...but not the "low". I spoke to Tony at PRI about modding my tube a little to use the top rail but it would leave 2" at the end and wouldn't really serve any purpose other than adding weight so I took a pass. I do want to put a delta on something though.
  5. i dont always use an eotech...but when i do...i prefer it to be jumbo sized. seriously though...yea. my favorite thing about the M2 was that wonderful feeling in your chest when you fire it. cant imagine it at 3x the ROF.
  6. looks new. Came on a lower I bought. I'd like a MOE+ preferably in black. Doing this on my phone so if pic doesn't work I'll get it up this afternoon.
  7. Its not possible. CA is a gun free zone. Please check your facts.
  8. weaponsguild has the best girls with guns thread ever. its amazing.
  9. I remember that day.
  10. Edit...that's just barrels. Not uppers. Sorry.
  11. Jse surplus has them stripped for $105. rifle length. Gotta use a clamp on block though since they aren't drilled for.taper pins.
  12. PRI ought to be a site sponser
  13. Nice...we used the same hand guard! I have the 14".
  14. We had some guys come in from TX and do simunition training. Pretty intense. I learned i'm a much worse shot when SHTF. Nobody got a shot off during the knife drill.
  15. The only SKS I've owned (or wanted even) was when I was in middle school and cost $89. My uncle bought 6 of them and gave them to all the boys for xmas. Was fun. Worked fine. If I saw one for $90 now I might buy it. Maybe not. $450 is laughable.
  16. looked at it again today. chambers and locks no problem on a live 308 round. gonna just chalk the headspace test up to tight new parts. been working it by hand this morning and its already getting smoother.
  17. I'd feel better about modding the small replicable part the the receiver. Do some cutring on the CMMG catch since its the least valuable. If you get it to work...great. If not...no big loss.
  18. thanks for the input guys.
  19. I have a maid if anyone wants to trade for a MOE+
  20. Just did the go. Doesn't seem like much point in doing the other two if the go won't close. IM just wondering if the tight lockup might be the only reason it failed since I know for a fact it closes on a live round. I know the test is done closing the bolt by hand...and its pretty tight by hand even with nothing in the chamber. Maybe I'll just strip it down again to be safe.
  21. sigh. so, finally getting this thing finished. i did the online ghetto headspace test a few weeks ago. stripped bolt, barrel removed from receiver. a live round slid into the chamber and the bolt would turn by hand. then i slapped a layer of masking tape on the round and it still closed. 2 layers of tape and the lugs hit and the bolt wouldnt turn. by no means a real test, but i had it apart so why not. today i brought the assembled upper to a local shop who said they could headspace it assembled. the guy said it wouldnt close on the go gauge. he also said hes seen the rainier barrels be really tight. i know shes a tight beast right now and honestly wont even close all the way without a tap, but my old upper was like that too until i got a few hundred rounds down the pipe. it closes and locks if i let it slam a little. if i put a live round in there and let it slam a little (maybe a 1/2 to 1/4 drop) it looks like its closing all the way. finally got it all put together and torqued so im dreading tearing it apart again. hindsight: i should have asked what gauges they use but i didnt i should have just brought them the stripped parts...but i didnt. thoughts? up sides....guys at the shop (black weapons armory, tucson AZ) were nice guys. they didnt charge me anything. they said bring it back if i think of something and they wont charge me again. they had tons of bad ass rifles on the walls and nice accessories under the glass.
  22. subwofer2 is good 2 go. made a trade deal for my PRS a few weeks ago while he was "out of town" stayed in communication the whole time. just got my ACS today. no issues.
  23. Troy and apex fit the new rail height. Samson has one if they ever release it. I'm sure there's a few others but not many. Everyone is mad at DPMS for changing height for no reason. At some point they are going to have to suck it up as the market becomes more saturated with the new ones.
