Ok this is who I hate posting, everyone finds out how much I don't really know, lol. My question is: I am building a AR10 DPMS style gun, First of all, I am using already bought and have in hand, which I use in all my guns, the JP Enterprise Silent Capture No-Kick Buffer for .308. I have a standard sized Mil-Spec 6-hole adjustable Buffer Tube bought fromMidway U.S.A.. I also have a BufferTube that is straight and has a little end cap type sticking out built into the end with a little hole in it. I bought it a long time ago do just never sent it back. I found a Magpul Adjustable Snipers Stock for a great price and was going to order it. The selker said it was for a A2 set up. I researched A2 and only came up with something about removable handle. I don't have a handke so figured if I am using a normal mil spec buffer tube even though the stock says AR15 why wouldn't it work on my .308??? Did I miss the boat? Or am I making something simple hard. I don't understand what the difference would be as long as my buffer tube works with my buffer and it does. As far as I know have .398 buffer inside tube with a quarter in the bottom of buffer tube aspect instructions say to but don't hv everything built yet to check cycling of BCG. Now if I was to use the long straight buffer tube I have a plastic stubb I need to put in there for my JP buffer to work correctly. Can someone please correct me if I'm out there in left field? Thanks

Hello everyone, I thought I would try here first. I'm looking to buy a .308 DPMS style upper and lower receiver. Has anybody out there bought one. Decided they don't need it right now or just isn't in the budget for now? I am looking for something in the looks as the Mega Maten, or LiveWire, or A2, he is wanting The Sharpe's Bros. "The Jack". I am going to build my Son in Law a .308 for his Christmas present, so I'll have someone to Elk hunt with next year. Please if you would keep your prices at a reasonable price you know I don't mind giving you what you paid for it but for asking $200-$300 more is out of the question. Thank all of you have a great week, you can pm me m. I don't know if it's all right for me to post my phone number here or not .

Thank you

Thx W

Just wondering why dosn't everyone pull their ads when an item is sold m. Sure would save slot of time reading the ad and come down to sold mixed into the conversation. I m just asking not smacking to get plucked and cooked

Thanks I appreciate it. I am hard headed an trying to figure out why all A-bolts are 24"-26"long. This gun is going to be for long distance shooting 1,000yards. I've got friends that are into the long range shooting. I think it's pretty neat so Ifigured I would build a AR10 .308 DPMS style gun and go down with them.

Thankya

Thanks

Thank you

Thank you I will look into that

Thankya much

You still around the area now

I was kind of thinking so, 24" sure is a long piece of metal to swing around. Thinking bout bumping it down to at least a 20" maybe 18". I know my 18" .300 BO will group em tight. Thanks for the reply

Thank you much

Hey everyone I'm trying to finish out my build. I need some of y'all's input on my barrel. I'm trying to decide between 22" and 24" barrel. Is there really that much difference between a 22" & a 24" barrel. I'll be shooting premium grade ammo. I usually use Hormandy ammo around the 150 to 168 grain. Going with the 1:11 twist. I've been talking to Andy Kreiger & JP at Black Hole Weaponry. I have read a couple negative feedbacks on BlackHole though,so I'm debating. Also there's quite a bit of money difference between the two, about $400. But that doesn't bother me if I know I'm getting the best . Thanks for any input anyone woukd give
