  1. Could be the carrier is hitting those threads because the buffer has too much room and isn't stopping it short like it should. I stopped that in my Matrix build with two quarters in the tube before replacing the spring and buffer.
  2. As soon as I saw the drop down menu with all the lens strength choices I knew I had a question for @Armed Eye Doc http://www.bjonessights.com/AR15.html What am I looking for in my eyeglass prescription that will clue me in on what power lens I would need for one of the B Jones sights?
  3. Fire, Skulls, and Money IPA from Toppling Goliath of Dechora, Iowa. This was the priciest TG offering I have seen. Grapefruit and a sweeter tropical fruit smell, very aromatic. Taste mild upfront, a little mango/passion fruit hint and a touch of malty sweetness. Then comes the grapefruit/ orange peel bitter to even it out. All kinds of different hops flavors, tasting it is like hitting a moving target. Has the real fine fizzies for carbonation, nothing over the top just adds a dimension to the creamy feel.
  4. Maybe not, that's a couple bucks more per trigger in shipping and I haven't won yet.......
  5. Shooting suppressed? If your early in the round count use a little more lube.
  6. One at a time, cause I wanna win one of those build kits!
  7. just ordered another myself last week, hoping I may be able to slide just one more before the price changes.
  8. Toppling Goliath of Dechora, Iowa's version of an Oatmeal Stout, Rover Truck. Smelled a little bready with a little smoky hint. Tasted nice and smooth, creamy oatmeal for sure, has a dark molasses sweet to it, not overbearing but adds to the toasted notes, kind of a malty flavor all the way through as well. Creamy and smooth the first can went down before I even thought much about it.
  9. I run a couple Bushnell 1x6.5x, only use the illumination sparingly at dusk or full on when trying to use them for a red dot on 1x. I have both of these; Mounted up a PA 1x8x for my grandson today. looks good in the basement. Weather provided it will get zeroed this week.
  10. Ejector swipe, not real unusual. Might be a tad hot but could also just need some weight in the buffer or a stiffer spring to slow things down a bit. Could ease the edges of the ejector a bit. I've got one that shows the same crater effect around the primer strike but it has more to do with an oversize firing pin hole in the bolt than pressure. Hard to totally do away with all the marks and still have good reliability, at least I'd rather be a touch on the over-gassed side of the equation.
  11. Had the privilege of a short visit last week when class got out early. Very humbling place.
  12. Run mine with MBUS for sights shooting 200-220 gr suppressed rings the steel regular at 100 yards and rapidly accurate in that 15-20 yard range. Something about that "pistol" lends itself to working well for inexperienced and beginner shooters, short light, accurate, and really quiet. Is it bench rest quality, hell no. Does it get the job done inside it's limitations, hell yes!
  13. Guilty, actually had two........
  14. Surprised it has took this long for others to get in the game, maybe patents held them back. Any pricing on this option? others like it are the Noveske Switchblock; https://www.noveske.com/products/switchblock-clamp-on-5-56mm And LaRue's PST gas block available on their rifles, "The PredatOBR's Port Selector Technology™ (PST) gas block is adjustable, to aid in the optimum function when using a sound suppressor. This special gas block contains a dual port mechanism that is operated by rotating a lever from one side to another. When the lever is rotated to the right-side of the rifle, the gasses are reduced, to compensate for the extra blowback created by the suppressor. When rotated to the left side, the gasses are increased for use without a suppressor."; https://www.larue.com/products/larue-tactical-14-5-inch-predatobr-7-62/
  15. Wonder if it is a longer pawl? I have one that was sold as a 308 specific but it is too long, jams up my Aero and matrix builds because of the longer pawl.
  16. Prototypes in the near future is a long way from equipping the troops.
  17. There are some collapsible stocks with no wiggle, Magpul makes several with locks that firm things right up.
  18. That is the root of the matter! Tyranny is the reason the founders put the 2A in.
  19. Gun violence? When one of my weapons becomes violent I will get rid of it. Gun violence is a catch phrase for the anti 2A crowd, you know better.
  20. Welcome from Iowa, via Virginia!
  21. That is some fantasy schit right there! They want our guns, all our guns. When they get one bite they immediately begin looking for the next. Not one inch more!
  22. True, sad but true.
  23. I found the reverse for package delivery in my area. USPS is hands down more dependable and careful, FedEx throws them in the vicinity of the door, UPS sets them in front of the truck in your street then drives away.
  24. ^^^^ THIS! No more kicking the can!
