If I come across some A1 buttstocks anyone want them? Stuff I seen last week was cheap $30-$60 depending how beat they were, most had armory markings on them. I seen complete kits ( minus lower and barrel) a lot cheaper than whats been offered around the net- $350~$400. I could give you the sellers info if you are interested, he's been on our show circuit for 20 years of better. The only thing he sells is classic MILSERP AR platform stuff.

The stuff that I got from Right to Bear Arms had used threaded fixtures instead of using roll pins. They were 1st rate and don't know why they are not available anymore. I did talk to these folks last fall, they told me that going into the 2nd quarter that they were going to be making all their own stuff. Again, you could call them They were the most reasonable company out there selling the 5-D Tactical jig https://www.ceratac.com/default.asp

Here is another supplier,I bought 2 lowers from them last year. They don't have the large frames listed anymore,but you could call them. https://www.zrtacticalsolutions.com/shop/80-forged-ar15-lower/

Noreen is about the only one I've seen in awhile. You could call these folks up and ask them who else supplies them https://www.righttobear.com/noreen-DPMS-80-percent-raw-billet-308-lower-p/n-fg-308.htm

I'm not going to get involved with the other post because he knows what direction this needs to go. But I am going to ask a few simple questions to make you think. 1)-Did you headspace this after you put everything together? 2)-did you patch the bore or check it for obstructions? 3)- you really need to do a detailed oiling until things get broken in. Why did I post it, because it's something he should be aware of. Remington Core-lokt 180gr ammunition is not particularly happy being stripped from a mag and shoved up the feed ramps designed for ball type ammo.

They sure are proud of their receivers. I did see this while I was at their site,have no idea if it's applicable. IMPORTANT!! You MUST use the G10 Enhanced Cam Pin in the G10 Side Charging Uppers! Use of a Standard Cam Pin will cause the Bolt Carrier Group to lock up in the G10 Upper Receiver and be VERY difficult to remove and could damage the Upper Receiver. https://gibbzarms.com/product/g10-308-side-charging-upper-receiver-right-handed/

I just scored a 1,000 peices of "Federal Gold Medal Match" once fired brass in 308 for $110 shipped. Ya just don't get that every day.

Military-style semi-auto rifles seldom have firing pin retraction springs. If care is not used in assembling ammunition, a “slam-fire” can occur before the bolt locks. The military arsenals accomplish this using different techniques and components—including different primer sensitivity specifications—from their commercial counterparts. CCI makes rifle primers for commercial sale that matches military sensitivity specs that reduce the chance of a slam-fire when other factors go out of control*. If you’re reloading for a military semi-auto, look to CCI Military primers. *Effective slam-fire prevention requires more than special primers. Headspace, chamber condition, firing pin shape and protrusion, bolt velocity, cartridge case condition, and other factors can affect slam-fire potential. https://www.cci-ammunition.com/products/primers/primers.aspx?id=30

Lube the BCG and shoot the rifle to break it in. Also, you'll want to be careful using ammunition like that as it can slam fire. There is a reason the military requires specific primers.

Awesome

I'd rather have a cigar to the eye than that, I like it.

Excellent videos.

Thanks The last 2 cycles is were it all caught up to me. My spleen was 29cm, it's now back to normal around 13.5cm.

I am allergic to cat's, can live without them.

Thanks, I appreciate it and will look at them as well. Been a really rough week here, trying to finish up 7 months of Chemo

Thanks Cliff I picked up a MISURP chest belt rig over the weekend. The belt was kitted out and is almost in new condition. It came with a pistol holster, 8- 5.56 mag pouches, a bunch of smaller pouches for various stuff and one large pouch that looks like a small ruck. I have to go to chemo but will try to get some pictures up tonight. Thanks guys.

Made in the USA, works for me and they look nice. Thanks I am ordering in the morning

I wonder if Beahing Tactical would want to venture out? He sure makes quality slings.

I am looking for some more kit, price point is not part of my decision process. Biggest thing that I want is for them to be made in the USA if at all possible. I am looking for a pouch that will carry two mags. Condor seems to offer a lot of choices https://www.madcityoutdoor.com/collections/m14-molle-pouches I was looking at this site that and seen these- https://scorpiustactical.com/products/91088-single-m14-mag-pouch-gen-ii?_pos=41&_sid=6c3aabd88&_ss=r I like having the divider like the MA62 has. So who has the suggestions?

And just like that Speer is releasing new ammo. https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2020/01/01/speer-gold-dot-5-7x28mm-ammunition/

What surprised me the first time I picked up my Five-Seven was how light it was.

I love my Five-Seven. Maybe since Ruger is making it affordable it will breath life back into the caliber

Well,I don't know what happened here but can a Mod delete the multiple post? Thanks

You should really slow yourself down a bit, don't go out buying stuff until you actually know what you need. Here is a video to give you an idea of one of the reasons I prefer a mounting system made from one piece of material for the AR platform. Another reason I like a one piece mount is the convenience of moving the optical from one gun to another.
