Can Y'all ship via UPS if a customer requests UPS shipping, and without a delivery signature?
-
Finally a better quality and affordable hawk from a US hawk maker. Much, Much better than those attempts that come out of India, Pakistan, and China. <thumbsup>
-
So if I order one of your barrels you'll ship UPS then, right?
-
Thanks anyway but I was simply wondering if you have ever been there and what the range is like.
-
Thank you for the assistance. <thumbsup>

I sure am glad you put this one out there. Just got one out the door for $65.87 total which is probably more than 1/2 price off. I probably never would've discovered this one until long after it was too late. Thanks again !!! <thumbsup> Now the more I think about it the better I like this. I can use a clamp-on front sight block on the 20" upper I am going to build and have a better selection of who's gas black to buy and will have a much smoother upper for mounting of the scope I want to buy. Won't have to drill the barrel for a gas block that should work great. Happy as all get-out here. :banana:

Perfect. Thank you.

I cannot tell if this is the proper rear sight for the front sight above. Any suggestions ... ??? Midwest Industries AR Series Emergency Rear Flip Up Sight - Black Midwest Industries AR Series Emergency Rear Flip Up Sight - Black SKU: MIMCTAR-ERS Manufacturer part number: MCTAR-ERS Availability: In stock Old price: $105.00 Price: $93.95 0004951_midwest-industries-ar15m16-emergency-rear-flip-up-sight-black_125.png EDIT: And now that I think about it ... I wonder if this would work with the A2 carry handle for the AR10 if the picatinny gas block is NOT of the same height?
-
Just ran across this one ... extra 20% today; www.magplates.com
-
The A2 carry handle for my .308 build came in today along with the Ergo vice block I ordered. Surprised it showed up today as I wasn't expecting it until Tuesday.
-
One of my partners at works has one. He loves it and shoots it all the time.
-
RIGHT ON !!! (could not have said it better myself)
-
I sure need to get in to reloading but I simply do not know where to start.
-
What do you have on order or in the mail? Part 2

Sounds like a great buy. What type of reloader do you have? -
I fully agree with you on the holidays. May your friend rest in peace. I'm sure he'll be with you always like all the rest of the Vietnam veterans that never came home; they will also be with us always.

It appears that Ranier has Acogs on sale.

Check your older records. Might be a very old pre-paid backorder ... (???) Otherwise you may have simply won a prize !!! <thumbsup> -
Oh yes. That's going to look great. <thumbsup> Thanks for posting the pics. Please keep this updated. I'm still a little ways behind you. One of my barrels should be here Tuesday. I decided to build the carbine first then later when I decide on a better barrel I'll do another upper in 20". I forgot I had previously bought an upper receiver about a year ago. Found it when going thru the parts bin and a light bulb went on. Got several parts due in Tuesday. I'll post up when they get here and I sort everything out.

Handguard cap, barrel nut, .308 barrel nut and wrench, gas tube pins, extended A2 front sight posts, sight post wrench.
-
Thanks for this explanation. I will be using this soon.
-
Very likely I have to agree also
-
Glad to hear this is working out. Keep us informed on how this continues to develop. By all means enjoy your weekend. Unfortunately I will be on call starting this Friday thru next Friday.

Another A2 carry handle in route.

This really sucks. I'm sorry to hear the bad news but from FedEx this is NOT IN THE LEAST SURPRISING. I avoid having anything to do with this worthless and incompetent LIBERAL ASSED company if I can ever help it. :cookoo: I say this, to stress that I despise these people to the extent that I have backed out of buying something I really needed that was also on sale somewhere and purchased the same thing for upwards of $20.00 or more in regular cost simply because the company that had the item on sale was using FedEx exclusively. I dodge FedEx like a germophobe dodges a leper colony. If I was you I would call FedEx immediately and ask for a supervisor and when you actually have a supervisor then explain the matter to him/her. It might help to go to FedEx and speak with someone face-to-face. Ask them if you are the person that should file the claim or the merchant. Also contact the merchant and give them the name of the supervisor and whatever it was the supervisor told you and follow instructions as to who should file the claim and by all means keep copies of everything. It seems there is a definite trend of FedEx shipping going bad once it reaches Hutchins, TX. Once it leave Hutchins and comes my direction it only gets worse. I'm sure it is not much better from Hutchins to El Paso. Unfortunately I can offer you no decent explanation for this but I can tell you I know all too well how this feels as it has happened to me before. Extremely frustrating and disappointing. I would like to point out to whoever may also be reading this, that beginning in about 2012 up until as recent as this past Friday, I have been epxeriencing some strange and mysterious happenings with packages being shipped to me via the USPS and sometimes UPS that originated from know firearms parts suppliers, etc., The most recent was Friday when I received a package of spare pins and springs from MidwayUSA. This was shipped in a small light gray plastic package, of which appeared to have been taken from a roll of bulk packaging material and sealed-to-size on both ends once it was stuffed by Midway. Interestingly was that one small area of the outer layer of gray plastic was peeled back so somebody could see thru the inner clear layer of plastic and discover what was in the package. This was shipped via the USPS, who incidentally likes to use "discretion" every now and then by holding delivery on something until I sign for it or come to the post office to pick it up. Needles to say, EVERY one of the packages they've done this with appears to have been opened. I Last week also I received an order from JSE Surplus. I had this shipped via the USPS. IT was delivered without any problems. The week before that I had received an A2 carry handle I ordered from BCM. This was delivered via UPS and the followed instructions and delivered the package by leaving it behind my front storm door and without signature. These companies hire folks that do eventually learn how to seal a package; be it a box, envelope, or whatever so I know the initial sealing is good. Somebody along the way, for whatever reason, just has to see what I'm ordering. I could go on and on about my horror stories with FedEx but it won't make you feel any better. I will say that over here in our area they are totally incompetent, lazy, dishonest, arrogant and outright some of the most pathetically miserable people I've ever seen in anybody's workforce. I hope you get it straightened out. Please keep us advised of the developments. Let me know what the overall condition of your barrel is and how the workmanship appears. I had my eye on the 20" barrel and was going to move on it soon. My advice; if those threads are damaged I'd send it back and ask for another one. Good luck !!!
