One is on a 458 really like it. One is on a 12ga. Really like that one too. Brother has one on his 6.5 CM

It's a good stock, have them on a couple builds.

Totally awe inspiring! Looks like something I should be doing. 20 or 30 years ago I was using a film camera and a modified flash dialed down to a few microseconds with a sound trigger to get photos of bullets but never thought of shooting one with the other. Developing the film added weeks to what the digital can do in a few seconds. Also had to work in complete darkness. $hit has come a long way!

Mine was a new build all cerakote finish so didn't have to match anything, but the Graphite Black Cerakote looks close to a lot of the annodizing to me. I was looking at photos, front was a little long also, had to do just a little bit of relief so the handguard retainer would clear ... Here is the whole build if interested, had a lot of fun with it. http://albroswift.com/308Commando.html

The RR carry handle is just a little long, can be left overhanging or trimmed. Also need a recess in the receiver for the sight adjustment post. $185.00. You really have to want one to go through the effort. I really wanted one.

Awesome

Looks good. We grind 12-13 lbs special trimming or lean trimmings with 5 lbs of bacon and press into burger patties, come out great. Like to try the smash burger approach.

I like the riflespeed AGB. Only thing I'm curious about, the way they measure the tube did you have to buy/ mount the AGB, Then take the measurement, then order the straight tube?

Looks like CDNN bought out all the Anderson Manufacturing inventory. Lots of barrel configurations and spare parts.

if you milled off the back the rifle tube would stick out the front. I'd go back to your carbine extension, if it runs don't fuk with it. Find a stock you like that fits the carbine extension there are plenty! If you want a rifle build one you already have a good start with an extension, we have started with less. Welcome to the forum!!!

I see what you are looking at, but if it's a carbine endplate where does the tab go?

Problem I see just looking at the photo is the rifle extension is threaded in about the right amount. If you threaded it in far enough to catch the keeper (Incorrectly located), it would interfere with the upper when closing. Most carbine extensions I am familiar with have extra meat down where it contacts the buffer retainer. If you thread in the rifle extension far enough to retain the pin you may have to file some off the top to fit it .

Wonder how long he held on before he dropped to the pavement.

Awesome, thanks!

Seems strange but looks like pretty nice scope. Brother didn't have any paperwork, what is the procedure for focusing the reticle? Start high power or low power or middle? Takes 2 hands to focus reticle, one to hold the zoom and one to twist eyepiece, or am I missing something?

Friend just put a nightforce on his shooter, eyepiece rotates with zoom. Is that normal? Locking ring tight or loose doesn't matter

Started reading about them until a big banner offering 10% off popped up right in the middle of the page with no obvious X to close, and a chat window popped up, so I closed the whole page out and moved on. Told them about it in the chat first though, just a bot judging from the instantaneous long winded response!

Mine expired a few months after the warranty expired. Buttons quit working. Did call the company. 2 pairs of Pro golds both started exhibiting problems, old pair had a 5 year warranty, went a good year after the 5 year warranty expired, then the right channel started screeching, the newer pair went a year after the 1 year warranty expired same issue. The pink Pro Ears I got for the woman still working. Talked to the shop about all 4, obviously I'm a repeat customer and 3 for 4 you would think they would do something to make there customer feel valued, but no, they toed the line on the warranties. Did get a nice "I'm Sorry" out of them, that and $5.00 will get you a cup of coffee at starbucks. I'm looking for a different brand for the next pair. Expensive ear protection should come with more then a 1 year warranty.

Had the 10mm blaster out to the range a few times over the last month, has been 100% reliably chewing through everything from light tightgroup loads to full blow AA#9 loads and brass is coming out in reloadable condition. Shoots the loads I use in my 1911s, the ladder loads I worked up for the carbine, factory 180 Federals, and a good bullet puller for anything that says 10mm laying around on the bench and floor. Adding the weighted spacer in front of the heavy buffer seems to function fine, no issues. Might have even improved the deadblow effect, feels really good when cycling. Scoring the JRC 8-1/2" internal depth carbine extension was the final piece of the puzzle. Guy on a muzzleloader forum pointed me to that, believe it or not.

Great photos. Love the old war birds.

OK, squared away. Opened up the barrel port to 0.110", opened up the gas block to 0.110" Cycles and locks back on everything. 300BO Pistol configuration 9.9gr H110 powder 220gr subsonics 10.5" B/A Barrel 1:7 Pistol gas 5-1/2" +/- dwell Port was 0.095, stepped it up to 0.101 (Stepped it up again to 0.110") Yellow Sprinco 20% reduced spring

I do not have the wherewithal to successfully undertake the gas port system evaluation and R+R . ^^You need to do this^^ Still am trying to wrap my head around the reason why the rifle works great with heavier rounds. ^^To understand this^^ These things are pretty simple. Baby steps, follow through the waterboarding thread. Take pictures and post. Most everyone here started out same way.

Been following this thread, 300BO Pistol configuration 10.5" B/A Barrel 1:7 Pistol gas 5-1/2" +/- dwell Port was 0.095, stepped it up to 0.101 Yellow Sprinco 20% reduced spring Shooting for Subsonic 220gr Off the bench cycles and locks back Lil Gun and H110 220gr handloads and Grizzly factory 220 gr subs Off hand tight to shoulder cycles but iffy on lock back Hold at arms length cycles 2 out of 3. Looking into the port with the bore camera the gas block port is smaller then the barrel port. Seekins low profile AGB. Next step open up the gas port some more. Is opening up the AGB port a thing? How far should I go? With powders like Lil Gun and H110, enough gas pressure for subsonics? Only have 100 rounds through it, maybe more break in?

Signs are up at the Seattle Police Range, no 320's until further notice.

Woo Hoo! 10mm MFer moves from the "Needs Work" category to the MFing Blaster category. Did a couple things, first checked the headspace/ removed barrel, dropped in a round, snapped the BCG over the rim. Ran test adding shims until extractor didn't go under rim, about 0.007". Don't know what it is supposed to be but that seemed good. Full forward BCG contacts barrel face with round in chamber. Go/ No go gauges for the 1911's about the same results. So pushed the finishing reamer in all the way and spun it without pushing very hard, cut the rifling back a bit without pushing the shoulder back much. Used a white wool bit with some jeweler's rouge on the Dremel to really polish the chamber out. Put an 8-1/2" carbine extension on and added another 3.5 oz to the recoil mass. Went with the orange spring. First ran some factory 180 gr. Not too impressive but worked 100% Good SD's. 155gr XTP over 15gr AAC#9 This is what I'm talking about! 15.7 gr AAC#9, compressed load. I think the 2165fps is a mis read by the labradar. 6.8 gr Titegroup 155gr XTP Chewed through everything I threw at it, brass looked great. I'll clean it up and look closer later. Then ran some 300 BO tests. EDIT screwed up the order. Fixed now. Blue 220's, Sierra 220's, and some super-cheapo 220's. 220gr Blue bullets 9.9gr H110 COL 2.130 Lost communication. Edit: I have the order fixed I think. 220gr Blue 2.130 COL 9gr AAC#9 Didn't cycle reliably. 9.0 Lil Gun 2.130 COL 220gr Blues. Budget 220 gr FMJ's 9.9 H110 COL 2.100 #9 failed to cycle at 9.0 gr Lil Gun 9.0 COL 2.100 220 gr budget pill Sierra SMK 220's COL 2.220 #9 at 9 gr failed to cycle. 9.9gr H110 I think the 1152 is a mis read or a bad load. SMK 220 9.0 Lil Gun Like this one. Nice day at the range, got a lot of data. Out of 12 or so loadings, didn't have to dig one shell out. The AAC#9 in the 300 didn't have enough gas to pick up a round but did clear the port with the empties so pretty close. The 10mm ran flawlessly from put puts to full blow loads. Locked back on everything. I see a suppressor in my future.
