Going left to right, smooth end first, and a little tap to pass the j spring and set the notch correctly. It can go the other way but then you're dealing with two notches. Either entry will work but left to right is that much simpler, with smooth end first.

I'll take 10lbs of 223 tumbled, 3 lbs 308 as well. Thank you

Welcome Bud, looks like you were answered quick enough. Now I re-read your post. That does seem odd. Have you called DPMS? I'm guessing you have a legit concern. Have you been taken advantage of? Have you used the rifle? All well on the functions? Have you asked the dealer about it? Curious minds want to know.

Good eyes.

RA - Raritan Arsenal, FJA- Lt. Col Frank J Atwood. They tell a whole story by the different markings. Fast search I couldn't find the specific circle 8. Interesting piece of history and an actual piece of history as well. Tack drivers for sure.

Very nice, can you explain the stamping? Circle22, circle8, just curious.

I'm pretty sure that Aero is an aeronautics manufacturer first and guns second.

New magazines? Which rounds are FTE, 1st round, 2nd round? Load 8 and fire. It happened to me with new mags this past week, loaded 30 FTE, load 28 no problem.

Should ship Monday, waiting on email. Thanks Hell is waiting the six months. I almost forgot I ordered it, the phone call was a surprise.

Got it in two seconds. Generally when the blue wheel of wonder/boredom shows up it's on your end. BTW I just printed an eight page app I don't need. If you can't print your own I'll send you this one. PM me an address. @Sharpshooter

oooohhh hadn't noticed that @98Z5V , much as I didn't notice the triple 6 on my Anderson receiver I bought on sale. Well I didn't notice until I heard the strange snickering from the LGS gun stackers. Another laugh at my expense, dang. @Sisco I already have been looking into that proposition. It would be much akin to buying a rifle because we have a box of ammo in that caliber. Although I'm sure the sophisticated folks round here never entertained that idea. Hmm. @Sharpshooter Run is an optimum choice in this case. This mafia is the real deal. It's stacked with senior consiglieri's, 60, 70, and 80 year old poker faced wise gals. They can spot a fleck of dust at sixty yards, or an askew picture from two rooms away. It's a tough crowd. @Radioactive You never know. No reason to take any unnecessary chances. Has anyone read " Stone Soup"? It's a story of two soldiers walking home from a far away distance. It's a children's book but has a valuable lesson for adult folks also. The soldiers come upon a village and decide to take a chance on entering the place. They ask to be fed, but receive the cold shoulder. No one has anything to offer says the village. We're as poor as you. That's when one of the soldiers has an idea and places two stones in a pot over the fire. I imagine, it's been a while since reading the book and I hope to do it justice. He begins to stir the pot and cook his imaginary soup. Of course the villagers are watching every move they make. Finally one villager relents and offers a carrot, which is graciously accepted. Then another has some cabbage to add. Before long their a terrific soup simmering and the village is filled with a hustle and bustle. Smiling faces appear and soothing aromas. Strangers become friends and teamwork produces wonderful results. "1911 Soup". Forty nine parts make up the 1911. There was a bag of beautifully preserved, although dirty parts, lying in a bag for 35 years...🙂

Welcome from Fla. Most folks are terrified of making mistakes. There are so many brave souls here that screw up and then fix the problem that they themselves become experts. I'm not one of the experts, I'm in the intermediate dummy pool. Best of Luck.

I bought these parts and wanted to thank Cliff out loud, so to speak. There are many smaller parts that are hard to pick up by the eye from this picture. Here's my plan. I always like to explain in as few words as necessary, as do most of us, cough', ahem', not really. So a short story made long is more likely to happen, and it does so here. My development's club house is going to be updated. The Mrs. and her friends are now going to play in my house this coming Wednesday. Most of you guys know this part of the story anyhow. I now have 53 projects to make my house acceptable to our new guests. Move the dead plant and pile of dirt from the backyard, etc. I have a 1000 piece puzzle on a table that we visit and try to put together and spend a couple of minutes there each day. GONE!!! That's the new spot for the Mah Jongg mafia. A bunch of other demands will be equally ignored at my peril. I have a new puzzle and Cliff sold it to me. There are so many thigamajigs in this bag I'm calling it a puzzle. A wonderful oily smelling, and greasy bag of fun. Some of these parts are unknown to me, but I will find out what they are and when they were made. I can carry them in a small container and get out of the house with them and my dirty little fat boy Jack Russell for a few hours while the mafia does their thing. How's that for a run-on sentence ?

@shepp Yes I am still amazed, a 34" rod. I've seen a couple of fellas standing by a lake with those combos. I thought they were toys, or at best time spending devices, y'know perhaps a way of blowing off steam. I don't think that any more. I would have lost that fish myself. I hooked into a monster fish recently, I did let it run for a bit, then reel in. Another run and tightened the drag a little more. After the third run I tried to force the issue and lost it. The end of my line was curled up and led me to believe it just gave way. How long did it take you to land that fish? Good job BTW. I wanted to add, those are some wonderful pics !!!

@Sisco Just noticed the thread again. Thanks. Is that Bass the bait you used for the Pike? 😉

Quick check, nope.

I have a few of those barrels put away also. I will look for a barrel for you OP. I'm sitting on 6 barrels at this time or 5, damn, buy and stash, sheesh. Well at least the 6.5cm is almost done, gotta check. Haven't opened the build box since before the Holidays.

@mchljrdn I like to shop at bkingsfirearms.com. USMC Veteran owned small business. I've bought supplies at a reasonable price there. I don't now the folks well, but they have answered the phone when I called with a question. They will accept USPS money orders as well as the usual forms of payment. Who likes those nasty little paper trails the Mrs. finds? It's worth a shot to look bro. Best of Luck to you.

@98Z5V That's a tease right there, an appetizer, whiting your appetite, a shove in the direction of..., " wanna see more?". What is important here is "...the instruction book is enclosed." Unintended reference, "... forearm muscle may need to be enlarged in order to handle 26" barrel." Are 4 round magazines legal? Ask Mike, because Mike knows. Mikey Bloomers that is. The pantywaist.

On this quaint wallet emptying site the only suggestion worth considering is, buy two. Oh no, I just viewed a Noreen 30-06 two mag dump on YouTube. the guys head looked like a chicken typing a post. Me likey. BAR stuff man!!!

Plenty on Youtube

Not suggesting the 243 for elk in the above post, I just like that rifle. 243 is good for show off, pretentious, egotistic elk that will pose for you at 100 yds. You'll still need the most sturdy of bullets for the kill.
