BCM/Vltor kit is on the way. Just need to get barrel and bolt now, lurking for a sale on an 18-20 incher with a bolt.

Thank you sir! Gonna hit that checkout tonight.

I'm looking at a buffer kit from BCM that runs the Vltor A5 buffer. The kit comes with the lightest buffer 3.8 oz. I'm planning on using this in a 6.5 Grendel so thinking I may want a bit heavier for running it suppressed. Question is does anyone know if I can add standard tungsten weights to this buffer? I would assume they are using standard style buffer weights but hate to drop the coin and find out my weights won't fit and have to drop more coin to get the heavier one from Vltor, they are mighty proud of their stuff!

Sweet Jane Key Lime Milkshake Style NEIPA with Key Lime Puree and Vanilla. Brewed by Great South Bay Brewery in Bay Shore N.Y. for Fat Orange Cat, distributed by 12%. Has that citrusy hop aroma with a hint of key lime pie. Flavor starts with a bit of pucker, tart fresh lime at the start that rolls into that citrusy New England hazy flavor. The finish is all about key lime pie with that creamy meringue on top. Crazy how close to the real thing they can get a beer to taste but then still taste like beer, doesn't make sense but taste great, a sour I can handle!

WOW! A 7075 charging handle, gotta get one of those......... Wonder how much 7075 they removed from the lower to get that clearance, and right where I want less material on my lower.

Push Pop Party Nitro by Left Hand Brewing Co. in Longmont Co. I would normally start with aroma but the opening of this beer is an event. It scared the schit out of me, large pop when I cracked it and then the sound of a mass of bubbles with loud hissing. I held it over the sink expecting an eruption but it didn't!?!? It boils with fine bubbles in the glass for a good while but the head doesn't rise much, you can still see the couple inches below the head fizzing in the picture. Aroma is similar to an orange push-pop, citrusy, with a hint of grapefruit rind. Flavor is like the name, push-pop orange, a little sweet with just a hint of malt. And a touch of Fanta. No real bitter at all, just a creamy push-pop. Feels real light, watery but super creamy. A very unique and unusual beer, gotta get a few more so I can watch people jump when they open them!

Immediately started drooling

Cold Roses, American Style Dry Hopped Kettle Sour by Single Speed Brewing of Waterloo Iowa. Has a floral like piss smell. Taste follows with a floral like in Febreze air freshener floral taste. Sour like a white wine that has went bad, vinegary nasty crap. Had the wife try, she said it smelled like piss and she was not putting it in her mouth. I couldn't get past three sips, figured that was an honest try and dumped the rest. Took a half glass of Pseudo Sue to get my palate back………

The Fulton bolt I worked with was nice, it was a snug fit on the go gauge in a Criterion Barrel. That rifle shoots lights out! Have them fit a bolt, it will be a super accurate rifle and you will have forgotten about the money long before the barrel is shot out.

Don't want to be cremated or buried in the ground. Stuff me in a couple hefty bags and throw me over the bridge. There are a couple bridges I used a staging areas for running traplines, my body could be utilized by the critters whose furs I utilized. I know this is against laws and norms but but F'em, it's what I want.

This is the third different measurement listed for these barrels, granted we are talking 1/16th's of an inch, from a straight 11 inch to one at 11 3/16th inch. This is with the same Aero upper, starting to make me wonder if these barrels were QC rejects from Sig, hard to believe they would change up a piston system that often.

I'm a little slow sometimes so ya'll will have to excuse the confusion I may have caused on the pin issue. I got to thinking when I check headspace I always orient the bolt like it would be during function, just turn it enough to see if the lug passes with the gauge, hence I did not catch the pin hitting on a lug when the bolt is not correctly oriented. Went back and checked the "pistol" I have built with the Sig bolt, it will not spin all the way around but like all the other bolts I have checked works fine when in the correct orientation so there may not be any dimensional differences in the lugs. Also just realized the Sig bolt uses two AR-15 ejectors and springs as well as the pin being a different length than any others I have, CDNN has the pins in stock so I grabbed a few.

Grandpa never cleaned a thing, fresh shot of WD40 on whatever was sticking, blow down the barrel, take a look and go shooting. My Father who taught me what clean was is a whole different matter. If he got the slightest smudge on a patch from anywhere on the weapon it was not clean and I had to start over, kinda like the company armorer. Clean is a relative term but a person knows dirty when he sees it.

Please don't use it anymore. Your hands, eyes, possibly life are more important than anything that can be proven by driving that bolt to failure.

Just checked my new Toolcraft bolt, like yours it does not rotate fully in the Sig barrel. Like the BRN-10 bolt it does not work in the Wilson Combat 338 barrel, closes on the no go gauge but not the field gauge. The standard Brownells bolt passes the headspace gauges, slipped it in the Toolcraft carrier and that should be good. Now to grab one of the last few Sig bolts for my second shorty build, just have to figure out whos extractor and ejectors to build out that bolt with. Where there is will there is a way Edit; @98Z5VI'm looking at this Toolcraft bolt in the Sig barrel, why would it need to rotate all the way around? It slides in at the correct orientation and will sit correctly in lockup with the bolt closed with no interference from the pin? I checked it with and without the extractor.

Has the headspace been compared between gas gun and bolt gun?

Propaganda 101, they have it down pat.

Still 49 in stock...........

Going cheap because if you don't have a P716 they are not supposed to do you any good. Sig discontinued the P716 years ago now. I had figured what the heck, no harm having an extra barrel for my P716 at that price, got to comparing things and realized it was just a custom gas tube away from being a DI gun. 98 pointed me to White Oak Armament and the mass enabling began

Sig offers a cleaning service for their P series pistols, $84.99 plus shipping gets you a clean gun and replacement of worn springs and some small parts. I've read that they use something similar to a dishwasher to do the cleaning.

Could be they dropped the feature. When I bought my PM400 it was pointed out as a safety feature on their website, it is not mentioned now.

Strange as my 11 incher hits dead center. I am curious if there are two different barrels, Sig made a gas block change at about the same time they were producing the pistol version of the 716, possibly the port location changed. I need to mock up my second barrel and see where it hits. I am also noticing Sig headspaced these barrels tight, a BRN-10 bolt failed a no go gauge on most of my barrels but passes on the Sig barrels.

Look at the Sig 938, very similar size to the 238 but 9mm. Took me a good 500 rounds to get a feel for the pistol but now I can get hits reliably. Mine was an earlier one that had to go back for some parts swapping to work right but I think all the bugs are worked out now....and the prices are a couple hundred less than when I bought.
