You won't get a clear answer and you don't know who will enforce it. Many won't. But there is always that one. That info came straight from a Trooper. If your just range shooting build it the way you want, just make sure to separate the upper from lower while your traveling then it's just "parts" and put it in a locked gun case. They need a warrant to search your car. I have many friends in law enforcement and I was myself at one time, I don't like having to look at things that way but that law is stupid. I always cooperate with any police officer.

Nothing with holes on the end even if it is pinned and welded. You can have a thread protector unless the magazine is not detachable with something like a bullet button but that needs to be pinned also. Your better off going the route I did. Bull barrel, fixed stock and use that stupid spur and you will be legit.

F ME! New scope is 30mm not 1" my nice matching rings won't work. Now i have to have another set painted.

Dark take a look at my build. That is NYS complaint with the exception of the grip. I have that ugly Spur (and honestly think its dangerous because you have nothing to hold onto) and haven't left the house with it yet but I will switch that part out when it's range time. What are you planning on using for a barrel? You can't have any holes at the end.

She's together. Scope is just for mock up. My father in law gave it to me, now i know why, you can't see anything through it. New one here next week. Now i just need to neuter it so she meets the rules.

This piece looks awesome!

That's how I did my 223 but I used the fingers in the holes. I snugged and loosened it up a few times, tightened it down till it was nice and snug and lined up the closest hole. Didn't crank it on there and haven't had a problem and the holes in the nut kept their shape pretty well.

Thanks gents. Hopefully the new one fits if not a friend of a friend might have one that fits.

Really confused. I'm hoping the new one fits. Ideas anyone?

My barrel is supposed to be on it's way so i was just checking some things over last night. The fingers on the barrel nut wrench don't even come close to lining up with the holes. Kinda pissed I have a $25 paper weight. Ordered a new one.

3 bills isn't bad.

DPMS upper and lower. DWilson bcg. Fulton Armory 24" stainless bull.

Longest range we have local is 250 yards unfortunately. I want to buy something that will equal the way the gun is built.

Just like the title says. Looking for scope options for my 308. Father in law gave me a Firefield scope and I have a feeling it won't last very long. Willing to spend some money but not crazy money. Getting ready to build a house so this would be something I stuck a little money away every couple weeks till I had enough.

Thanks Bean, talked to Fulton today, they said my barrel was in and should be on its way. Last piece to the puzzle. Wish I did the black parts in Cerakote though to keep the color more consistent in those areas. Maybe next winter.

Thanks ART. Think I'll take it to the range and try it both ways.

I was just going to say the same thing

Bipod: I know the consensus is kick the legs forward. Mine is strictly a bench shooter so leaning into it will just cause the legs to slide forward in the bench. I'm still waiting on a barrel but I feel like the gun is long enough as it is (barrel should far surpass the bipod). If you wanted to stand and shoot my handguard is 16.5" there should be enough room for a hand. I honestly like them folded backward. Thoughts?

Gotta love the internet.

I know my bench isn't perfectly level. I'm waiting on the bipod. I will put that on set it to a level height and find a more level surface. I'll put the gun on that and set it up level both ways before setting level on the scope.

Scope riser did the trick. Bipod will be here Friday, ordered a 24" bull from Fulton Armory today will get it when they get more in stock this month. Also said he would have me ship him my bolt to check headspace.

Howard Leight hands down. Or a really cool Mag Light.

The owner had found the furniture and handle on ebay with the hopes of finding someone to assemble it for him someday. I mentioned we could go that route after an upper was already ordered. If he wants to change it down the road I'll do it fir him but the owner just had a recent tragedy in his family, I'm sure this is the least if his concern.
