Glad you had a good day out there.

Hell is just two games away from freezing over.Go Vikings!

If you think all kids are like that you are sadly mistaken. Some sure, but other kids are out there working like hell to get jobs, my kid is one of them. so please don't be making blanket assumptions. If only there were more good jobs for them to look for, which there is not. Robotics, job exports and companies hiding dollars overseas, have cut into decent paying jobs, leaving Baristas, waiters and things like that. Plus we need to start training welders, machine shop work, and things like that at a younger age. College is overpriced and in a lot of ways overrated.

Angel;

Screw up, but maybe it will help them get ready for the real thing. We are kidding ourselves if we don’t think it is possible.

Great looking Seeforellen browns!

I was going to suggest contacting the Portugese Army. Also, maybe an intermediary like SARCO or one of those could do it for you. I understand the original AR10s had significantly less kick because of the design. Do find that to be the case?

Welcome! Look forward to learning about the original AR10’s from you.

Welcome from Wisconsin.

That’s what she said.....

Up until recently I went with a standard A2stock and mid level rings on all my AR’s simply because then proper cheek weld was the same position on all of them and became subconcious muscle memory for me. I have since switched to collapsible stocks on all my carbines and kept the A2’s on my 20 inch rifles., for no other reason then I wanted to try them.

I use ancho chiles a lot. Good stuff.

Congrats Double M. Waiting on some good news myself. Two weeks out of college, looks like my son is going to be offered a job in a corporate finance department. Will find out by Friday. This means he can pay his own way now!

Sold my 40 put my 9mm on the shelf and have 4 -45's. Just my personal preference. But for accuracy at any distance, nothing beats my N Frame S and W 357. Just impossible to CC

All the 300 Blk I have reloaded so far are not sutable hunting bullets, you have me interested enough I willload up some 125 -135 gr. Supersonics this spring and test them out. Trooper, for whatever reasons, I have found Wisconsin does will run longer after being shot than Bucks. I had one of those chest mush does run 100 yards then died in mid jump! The heart was practically vaporized.

Welcome from Wisconsin.

Welcome! Do stick around. As an Armalite fan I would love to see some pics of them. Even though it is a different company now, you might check with Armalite if you haven’t already, to see if they purchased the original engineering drawings of the original AR10 when they purchased the name. It would be pricey, but a machine shop could manufacture or modify something if you can’t find anything original, if you can get the specs. My understanding is that the Netherlands Armory destroyed everything when they discontinued production. Let us know if you are successful. A neat little article, but I am guessing you know all this already. http://weaponsman.com/?p=3388

Awesome Boot! Congrats on the freezer meat. Up here if you get on a deep enough slow moving stream, canoe hunting is very effective. Deer don’t expect danger from that direction.

Having proprietary parts and multiple suppliers of them is difficult unless you have a well coordinated product development team who is in constant contact with all their suppliers. it sounds like they are getting different spec parts from different people and trying to make it work. Not a good situation. I would let it shake out a while at least.

This is what happens when you don't have in house R and D and Product Development. I am guessing that they switched suppliers on the buffer tubes and buffers and someone "assumed" old and new suppliers were the same spec. The company manufacturing them might well have gone out and bought an Armalite and copied the buffer system without realizing DPMS and Armalite and PSA were different. Such schlock things do happen. As attractive as the prices, as long as they are "proprietary" and depending on other manufacturers, I am staying away.

7.62x39’s will destroy a cinderblock wall.

A service grade for $850 would be a fair price.

Same here. It seems to defeat the original purpose of CMP.

Nice work Wolf!

I agree with the article generally, but at those ranges I can use a 12 gauge slug and that is the end of the conversation as far as stopping power.
