I honestly don't remember for sure, seems like it was right on the edge. I remember not cranking down to hard on the second screw.

Bore snakes: There is a method
jtallen83 replied to Exhail's topic in Cleaning ,Maintenance and Tools
Not a fan of them for actual cleaning but I do pull one through after getting it out of the case at the range or in the field, positive confirmation of no bore obstruction or too much oil. -
Welcome from Iowa, via Missouri!

Maybe I need to try the right one, wasn't an IPA fan until you guys steered me the right direction.

Fuk that makes me hungary!

I left it alone, no need to open it up as function has been flawless both normal and suppressed. I put the size in the beginning of the thread I posted above, .073". I was surprised it did not need opened up since my 716 has shown signs of being undergassed, must be in the piston portion.
-
716 is a piston gun. I used a SLR gas block dimple jig to get it positioned exactly. The block hangs a bit over the journal ledge but that hasn’t been an issue, could be with a different block though.

Always love Milwaukee tools, older Porter Cable are the only drills I have seen come close to them. Besides cursing I always believed in a good swift kick, when someone can't get something working on the jobsite my first question is always, "Did you kick it?"

Love a balsamic marinade with chicken, looks just right

Suppressor is the way to go, makes it a blast to shoot.
-
That seems like an obvious place to start, eliminate the ammo, by the lot number, first, then start looking at the BCG. Please share that info! I have regularly recommended ammo with those "plastic" tips as accurate hunting bullets for AR's and will stop doing that if I see evidence of an issue like that.

Nice work!

The Perfect Disguise by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery in Milton, DE. Has a sweet malt and citrus aroma. Flavor is a very pleasant melon with caramel like malt backbone. The finish has some citrus with a touch of pithy dryness. Very tasty beer that's easy drinking, the 8% ABV is well hidden, a perfect disguise.

I have a build with a 16 inch Sig M400 barrel ready to go together when I have time. They are standard AR15 spec. Fit and finish are very good, accuracy to be determined.

What do you have on order or in the mail? Part 2
jtallen83 replied to imschur's topic in General Discussion
I have them in three rifles and no issues, Aero, Matrix, and Sig. Not sure where the thread is but I did some comparison measurements and posted it here when I had a catch break in a Matrix build, not sure what brand the broken catch was as it came with the Matrix receiver set. -

I have been getting lots of PM's about this build. Still $49.99, shows 53 in stock now, the 308 marked versions are gone but I don't see much difference in the ones I have. Just a month ago they had both versions and showed 70 something in stock. I think I may just SBR one of these. -
About as compact as practical, better jump on one those barrels if you want to build one, been getting PM's on a few different sites asking for details:
-
I can’t remember if I have used one on a DPMS pattern bolt. I can give it a try when I get home in a week or so.
-
Many manufacturers are touting this loose feature as a way to ease over-gassing on 308 AR's. My AR-10 McFarland rings have always been tight; https://www.armalite.com/product/ea1055-ar10-mcfarland-gas-ring/

Here is a link to my build with the SIG barrel. It works as does the SIG bolt that CDNN sells. I may have waited to order the tube until I had barrel and receiver in hand but it should be the same as mine. -

The barrels are good, no issues with the build from the barrel. My P716 is a jam-O-matic but no issue with the barrel and bolt, the bolt catch turns out to be a great part for my builds so far.
