  1. DPMS is like Ford, if you hot rod your F150 your warranty is VOID

  3. Hello, welcome. I lived in Pampa over 15 years. Was transferred to Woodward Ok in 1980. I belonged to the Pampa Rifle and Pistol Club and shot with several other clubs in Amarillo,Canadian and we had a competition shooting league. It has been several decades, but the Pampa club is still active.
  4. Absolutely! The bad guys and the cockroaches will take over the planet. The Florida Democratic congressman on Fox News was told that if there had been one or two or three armed Concealed Handgun Licensed people in the nightclub could have saved lives, during the over 2 hours of shooting. The ignorant closed minded gun control idiot said it would have been worse. Now that is the B.S. that is being spread by our Liberal politicians.
  5. Orlando, Florida: At Least 20 People Dead After Gunman Opens Fire in Nightclub, Police Say 42 people were taken to hospitals after the shooting at LGBT nightclub Pulse Orlando, police said Sunday, calling the incident "domestic terrorism." Police killed the gunman while exchanging fire.
  6. Serious, may not be serious enough. It is so serious here on Poverty Hill Acres that when our Wide Body Chihuahua hears the word WHATABURGER she starts acting starved and heads for the car.
  7. All the comforts of home, well almost...
  8. I found out a long time ago I don't want to have a situation where I need to shoot something as small as a squirrel or as large as a Mall Cop at 1200 meters to stay alive, so back in the day my scopes were all 4x fixed power Weavers, Redfield, or Bushnell, I even have a 4 power Mauser marked scope,BTY it still holds a good zero on the old customized 03A3. I bought them because of price or durability now my eyes like the 1x to 5x for the peashooters or the 5x by 18X for the .308 and 3006. I never thought it a good idea to put a $1000 piece of glass on a $400 rifle, just don't make sense to this old brown shoe jarhead.
  9. I want the can too!
  10. Could this maybe supposed to read: I carry both slung across the body ( Muzzle up , on my back ) & on the Shoulder? I use a Beachin' sling and it works well for me on my mini 14 with an original Ruger wood stock or a pre banChoate folding stock. I haven't needed to carry the DPMS LR 308 slung yet, but will.

    Oklahoma

    Back in 1943 when I left in the first grade Oklahoma had some good schools and some not so good. Texas was about the same, I was just joking. Usually the rural schools are better. Except for extracurricular stuff
  12. Yes I also like the 12" or 12.5" I could make a quick job with an 4.5" angle grinder clamped in a vise, since I sold my old bench grinder, then use a file and finish it off with a Dremmel tool. rather than have to pull the birdcage and the gas block. Cut off the old Delta ring and weld spring, unscrew the barrel nut and pull the barrel.
  13. I have done some general sloppy measurements and believe I can file and grind down the original gas block enough for a metal freefloating hand guard to clear the gas block on a DPMS LR 308 Oracle. Anyone done this?
  14. I'm going along with Wash Go to David Tubb's web site watch his videos specially the one on the one promoting the flat wire buffer springs. David Tubb is the real thing in high power rifle as far as I am concerned. His AR10 LR308 flat wire spring has 42 coils. And is less than $30. I have one on order (has shipped) YES, I will report on it,as compared to the original spring in my factory original DPMS LR308 Oracle. I have no dog in this issue except the facts.
  15. Ooough, can't handle them Tombstone pizzas, like the knife.
  16. Got shipping notice on my Tubb AR308 flat wire 42coil buffer spring .
  17. I wanted to bump up the postings about the Sons of Liberty. This mini-series should be shown every year in all American high schools. History books are really lacking in teaching how the only "government of the people by the people" came into being and why it came into being. Americans must never forget, how much those patriots risk and gace in order to become a new country of FREE MEN self governing them selves for the very first time. You need to see the part where Ben Franklin asked why? and then said "That is what I want!" I downloaded the entire series from Amazon Videos. I have watched it 2 or 3 times before and I started again tonight. It never gets old for me .
  18. Use plain old Lubriplate 115... guaranteed to not slip, slide or sling gravel !

    so not hog meat, that narrows it down somewhat. Maybe cow meat?
  20. This posting could prove to be a real request to provide information that is not permitted by U.S. Law: (from Freeminder) Hello I build my first .308AR and for checking some dimensions I need a 3D-Model or a print of .308 magazine. This is the last part which I need. I have searched in the internet but I do not found some .308 magazine, only AR-15 magazines. If someone have this, please be so kind and send me this. I want to use Magpul. Thank you and best regards freemind ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I did reply to his posting, that exporting magazines, blueprints of magazines Etc., Etc., is prohibited by law. look on any magazine for AR, M1A or AR 15 firearms. there should be an anti-export warning note on any magazine sold new in the USA.
