I must be in the minority. I've been wanting to get rid on my 1911 for a while now.

Here's a warm North Carolina welcome.

Wow, Portland PD was not playing games with them.

The guy is a Patriot and a half. The founding fathers would be proud.

Thankfully my Cav duty was state side. Those troops had it bad on the east/west border.

On the Chek border they had T55s when we went up there to plot our azimuth readings.

He was there the same time a I was. M551A1, M60A1 and M60A3 gunner/TC myself. The Soviets armor numbers were staggering. We were told we were out numbered 4-1. Thank gawd for superior fire power!

Well I looked for a 7mm-08 barrel last night and it's slim picking. Any leads on a .260 barrel, and what length? 21 3/4" with a target crown? I take it this would be a custom barrel.

"In the neck" The neck for us, was the Fulda gap's code name. It's where the Russians were expected to invade Germany when I was stationed there in the 70's. It's a major choke point where the tanks were expected to cross the border. "In the throat" was a position on the Czechoslovakian border, which was our main objective. Those that were "In the neck" had a 3 minute life expectancy if the shite ever hit the fan. Now, for me, "In the neck" is where I aim while doing pistol drills. :)

Robo one word for ya. MOVE!

They still make that shooting box IIRC. I had one similar to it, when I was shooting NRA slow fire competitions.

For two guys to come after him with AR's, he had to piss someone off big time.

Damn good article J. Now to find someone to cut and crown a 7mm-08 AR barrel to 21 3/4".

He's another one that needs one in the neck.

My wish list? An upper in the following calibers, 6.5 Creedmore, 260 Rem and a good ole 7mm-08. Now where did that 300 Win Mag AR go? Never mind, my wallet is screaming just thinking about a 300 Win Mag AR. Dang you ToolInDie.

One more off the welfare rolls in my book. More tax dollars saved.

No shite, and here I thought he was going to take one for the team. Or was that "get" one for the team?

Welcome to the forum Matt. You found a great forum no doubt!

Holy thread derail Batman. Y'all do it in style that's fer damn sure.

Here's a warm welcome wave from North Carolina.

Oh come on now, just buy from them and let us know how it goes.

Looking froward to the range report from that beauty.

I wouldn't either, then I thought, "Damn it would be an epic thread."

I take it you need a rifle length glacier hand guard, correct? Because they only make a carbine or rifle length. No mid length glacier hand guards to be found. Midway carries what you seek. This below is a glacier carbine length hand guard. On a 16" HBAR barrel.

Dang Doc, I certainly hope Robo would post a female pic not a male pic. Then again, ya never know..............Has the course of the poor OP's thread been driven far enough off course yet?
