  1. i'm not really a drinker, don't need to
  2. that was pretty easy,, you faild to mention what the slide was though
  3. That a neat trick, as we don't have DA's or city courts, or City jails, or station houses, precincts or any other such nonse, nor dis there anway on the planet you could ever get a report i've written , actually we didn't wright them, we had a 24/7 room of 50 woman than transcribed them from phone around the facility. we did'nt operate in the stone age. lol $100 for the first report you locate.
  4. Not anything, there was a list and still is to this day. get off you're ass and call any SO in Florida or most southern states, I'm full of poop, but you never worked in the field and the Military doesn't count as cross certifyiing you in law enforcement. A gun doesnt creat a standard the training does, tactical loading doen't matter, what gun you , nor does your stance, or anything to do with equipment, You really need to do some soul searching because you seem to be consumed with not believing anything I say, then get in your own mind seem to think I care what yhou thin and at te same time make yourself feel important over the idea that you know my job better even though you have no idea. really strnge my f rined I would suggest you move it off the cookie cutter website to another design, or contact the company that built it, That said, you can simply take the stance of the staff of other forum and adopt the practice of, if you don't like the post, you don't have to respond, but being the man I am, when I seem to have an advisary so gifted with knowlege from God that he's all knowing not just with guns but apparently he knows the inner workings of everyone elses careers, Honeslty its just entertainmennt for me. You see I left that career long ago, for greater things, so I'll being called a liar a, ignorant, illiterate or any other derogotory comment as a compliment, because being so illiteate allowed me to do two things in life, and thats spend money, and screw with those that screw with me out of the fact their lives apparently suck so bad. taking digs at me give them a bump to their self esteeem and since i'm generallly a decent person I'm actally happy I can offer support to those that have a hard time in life.
  5. i was lucky enough to work for a department that let you carry you're own, NJ and NY carry Glock 19s because they're cheap and Glock as an agressive sale pitch, and tried to take our dept for a ride, The dept didn't belive in standardized one for a weapons. it works for a rifle , but when the smallest deputy was a 4'9 Female and the biggest guy 6'7 and 288, and everyone in between what you wind up with is a bunch of lousy marksmanship. And the nail in the coffin for them was the fact that the guys that ran the armory we all ex Marines that loved their 1911s and at a time when polymer was uncommon, no respectable Cop, or member of the Military had any respect for a glorfied plastic frame and a its Heritage as the design of a coat hanger company. the POS 17 I have was $300 in the early 90's Its been locked in a safe since the early 90s when it decided it wanted to be a Glock 18 and turn into a fully automatic pistol, except you never know when, and nobody including Glock it thats even posssible found out why. In those days on girls carried compacts and most all had Lady Smiths, and if you were a girl and bought a glock were got hassled. as a guy you dared not have a Glock or Compact anything, if you had carried a Glock you were a cheap loser , and bragging about you're 17 plus two mag didn't mean poop. One guy of over 4000 people carried a compact lady smith from a pawn shop becasue he really was cheap which also included a toupe so bad his knick name was woody woodpecker, was tortured 24/7 and would get mans gun, nor a decent hair pieces so the running line was "Does Mr Smith no you have Mrs Smiths Gun"? and the best Hey I heard you finally decided to by a real gun , what happened? he say what do you mean? and they'd say "I was told with the fortune you saved on that doormat on your head you saved enouigh to by a pair of Sigs. Sigs were the most popular along with beretta 92s and then the die hards with 357 Colt 6" Pythons. So the choices were 9mm, .38spl, .40, .45, .357 Sig, and 357 Mag. only one fool carried a 38, she was a female freak cop groupy that somehow managed her way from a Majors secretary to the academy so she could work midnights and bring cookies to the brass. She carried and old Colt Police 38 from the late 60s her father used or some poop.. so all those choices and 45 and 357 were the majority, most with 9's ran after 45 were approved because a 115gr Silver tips were usless, they won't even go through a windshield, and the its greatest show of its complete failure was a an incident in little South Florida crack ghetto, when a City cop attempted to locate a kid with a warrant for some stupid poop, like missing a court date, just no big deal he was gona be served a new court date. Well things went sideways as the cop was white, the kid was black and the neighbord was known as a safe haven for people on the run etc. So t he mother thought he was there to bring him in, and hes in the doorway, and from the kitchen she charges towards him with a frying pan and a buture knife, and I forget to mention she weighs 400 pounds, he back pedals backwards and falls down the four steps up to the doorway lands flat on his and and then got the bright idea to shoot her, and not once or twiice but 14 times, it stunned her he got up she threw the pan at him and said "you just shot me you stupid mf" she didnt' go down, got on the strecher herself and fully recovered. apparently she was so fat it the bullets just didnt make it anyhwere, who knows? It was on the news, TV and ultmatley they had to pay out 5 milllion for unusual crualty and pain and suffering. Boynton Beach Fl, had to be around 90-91, I'd like to find the article it in itself proves fact is stranger than fiction, Sad but funny as hell, and lucky her. a 357 would have turned out very badly. That I've seen in person, backup a guy on a domestic he knocks, i'm a few feet behind and he's to the side of the frame as you should, but the door starts to open and you couldnt see anyone , so he move until its fully open and it wound up being the wife pulling from behind and now fully open the husband a very large biker say 6'3 and very muscular has a 12 guage at his side, partner shouts gun and the guy starts raising the gun, and before I could even move, my partner who was not what one woud ever look at as being a cop,, he was a big guy with a bigger gut form his only hobby of drinking, wore cow boy boots, and moved like a snail. and he carried that big ass python in an old school swivel so you could draw in a hurry. That said he must have becasue all I can remeber is the guy start raising the shotgun one handed on his right in slow motion and I rember the barrel get just past his knee , then hear the bang of the .357 and the 2 foot flame those things belched, an i swear that guy hit the ground befoe the flame turned to smoke. just one shot to the chest, 158 gr jhp at 1250fps and if there were levels of dead , then he took home the prize. All in all the 45 and 357 were all we needed, 9 they used sucked, and nobody cared about the 40 as it was usless, they used a 180gr Speer rated at 1000fps and the .45 was a 230gr round at 950fps so the difference was negligible and the 357 sig was the saddest of all, with and litte with only one round available at the time of 125 gr and was just and expensive piece of converation with no value. and what really killed was the rumor about it before it was released, I dont if i was just here or all over, but the big thrill was that it was gonna equal the mangnum and with a 125gr bullet it at 1350 it just about equals my 38 super, with the few choices at the time and now its a novelty just to say you have one.
  6. Ps how did i play you on the 300, that was the only decent exchange we've had and even that has to be filled with how I'm somehow telling a story. Not sure what your issue is on that one
  7. uH there was one internet photo, and the other was right on my counter top, or did you miss that one, I see you're back to the nonsense again, I don't bring my stuff to gun shops, and I've got the pictures and T shirts for all my lifes experiences, When one has, one does't need to embelish. do you need a pic of gun now, with the date on it? or maybe the box in t he closet? and Audiuence? I'll assume thats you, because nobody else disputes essentially anything I say or things I've done without merit. You claim a military stint, and I claim a cop, I offer suggestions, and you offer the cure, when theres no way in hell you can do so without that gun on the bench. I typo B24 instead of B14 and the 2nd pic you don't believe either so we'll try again. Heres's two pics for you Mr Gunsmith, one is a slide, but its very odd, and old, where is it from, how old, whats its metric calibrer and its history? The other is a photo of one of my former duty weapons, Its was the most expensive factory pistol in the world when I bought it in 1990, and now no longer produced its the most expensive used pistol on the market. It's accuracy rivals some dedicated target pistols, and its design is unlike any other auto loader. whats so special about its construction, and so mechanically different than any other combat weapoon? Lastly is its greatest attribute, It holds a deadly curse, for if it's taken from its own in the streets , time slows down, and by the time the individual points and pulls the trigger they've now become the victime with a 95% chance it causes them death in less than 10 seconds why?
  8. I buy it, and i'm not trying to sling a 5.56 1000 yards on youtube
  9. Yards, and Really? and what you want the dopes too? or we going to dispute ammo now
  10. Typo Its a B14
  11. To me 1500 as its all thats available to me at this point and I use a B24 HMR Bergara, and 190 matchkings.
  12. I'm hostile? and sent where?
  13. Not of importance, I don't by barrel blanks, as i'm not a machinist, nor is it worth my time when I can't buy a complete upper. I only purchase barrels for my bolt guns. No matter what caliber you throught in An AR10 its measurable on paper, and limited range. When I want to shoot real distance i have a 300 win mag for that.
  14. Uh no, I had others give me possible causes, and did it myself. The incompetent person doesn't ask questions and screws themselves worse. Nobody knows anything without being taught, or by doing. whatever you think you know about anything wasn't God given at birth. You're the clown that tells the pilot how to fly the plane even though you can't fly lol
  15. Of course the buffer poop is from the net, it was sent to me, and a little search will yield dozens, I simply sent you what was sent to me and the clock is actally the most valluable one. the DPMS Clones are the reason for alll peoples ills, the article was from one of the comments, theres no such thing as too many suggestion or too many questions as the ultimatley lead to solutions. You're trying to act like you're some brilliant gun guy and using the simplest platform on earth, then you attempt to claim you know the fix when you don't even have the weapon. Who knows how messed up it is, by throwing parts at it doesn't do it. Thus I didn't say what was wrong, only what to look for. Honestly in your life have you ever achieved anything of significance? Any real skills, Pilot, Diver, Mechanic, Tactical skills? because you're like the little bully, who talks poop to compensate for his lack of abilities and shortfalls in life. Wow
  16. Lets see, 12 years hmm, The first AR15 I shot was 1976, i was too small to shoulder it and would shoot from the hip with my dad back in the day. I was 9. I was surrounded by guns since i breath. shoot regularly, even got an AR180 for my 15th birthday, become a cop in late 89 and spend another 15 years surrounded by guns, and schools, and qualifications, and more schools, and while i never had too shoot anyone thanfuly, i've been on many and have seen wounded or dead from 9mm, 40, 45, 38, the mighty .357, and even the tried and true 1oz slug. Now i may not be an armorer but i'm quite compitent and I know what I know, and what I don't I learn from other, and pass on. Impres me with some achievement other than an AR. Is a silly little childs puzzle and not a good measure of technical apptitude, as evident when a few questions had be up and running in a day or two of questions. In the end I never gave a solution, I merely provided a valid list of places to start.
  17. First there is the M4 Carbine tube, and the the A1/A2/Rifle tube. Now my gun does'nt matter because its a real DPMS , one of the couple dozen companies to think it was smart to not create a standardized version. The only DPMS means today is the rounded upper instead of the AR10s angled. Next my spring and buffer don't matter because it proprietary, My buffer is 5.2" long, and weight 5.4oz exactly with a 12.75" 43 coil spring. One of my Clones has a Carbine stock, and mine is 3.7 ounces and and has the shorty 2.53" buffer. They vary, and depending on the gun can run from 3 to 6 or more, but its last place too look, nobody considers anything else and if is cycling issue we gotta race out and mess with springs and buffers. I never had an issue with a built, but my factory gun fire one round, eject and not lock back, and everybody preached your bit, buffer, springs. In this guys case could it be? sure as it seems based on his post it must been assembled by someone else, and may verywell have a pile of miss matched parts. His allegedly its a Gen 1 means he is totally unfamiliar with the format. No fault of his own, as most are. It took me a couple of months to get it all down. The Gen 1 and Gen 2 refer to completely different rifles, the G2 you never see and was sized down closer to an AR15, but still firing the 308. It was to be the new standard for everybody but it didnt take off. Next we have 3 different uppers, the High Profle at 3/16", and the later Low profile at 1/8", which simple refers to the thickness of the tab in the charge handle slot., and the rare High Rise Target top which is a High profile with extra meat. The problem in confustion is when the high/low started being called Gen 1 Gen 2 , it not, early and late, say Gen 1 or 2 can cause serious miscomunications as they have nothing in common. In the end my problem was some machine marks on the bolt, and the fact that it was new and very tight, I polished it out, oiled to death put a 100 rounds through it and done. The most import thing i checked and tells you exact where and where not look for issues is the Bolt Lock Test Here the comment of those you think are stupid for some reason.. One of my first ideas like everyone else it to mess with buffers andd springs Here is the list of comments in which theres no ment of "lets mess with the buffer" 1. If the bcg is tight in the carrier, the carrier bore might have tool marks in there.Check that and then polish if necessary, without opening the Inner Diameter, but just smoothing out the carrier bore.That’s a common problem, especially in that timeframe. 2. Some general diagnostic steps for you assuming everything is cleaned and lubricated properly.1. remove upper, remove bolt from bolt carrier, remove charging handle, insert carrier sans bolt into receiver and check that it moves freely back and forth with gravity. Reinstall upper onto lower, remove buffer and spring, reinstall charging handle with the bolt carrier sans bolt. With gravity, bolt carrier should freely move backwards and forwards into and out of the receiver extension. Inspect gas key to ensure it's secured.2. With bolt removed, insert bolt into the barrel extension and rotate, it should rotate 360 degrees freely without binding. Inspect barrel extension for burs.3. Parts inspections - Inspect cam pin for burs. Inspect upper receiver cam pin recess for burs. Inspect bolt gas rings for damage. Inspect firing pin - should move freely in firing pin channel (making sure it isn't bent). Inspect bolt inside bolt carrier without the cam pin or firing pin, pull and push the bolt in and out to see if it can move freely. Inspect bolt lugs for burs. Inspect bolt ejector and extractor pins to ensure they do not protrude. Inspect buffer detent for damage. Inspect buffer for damage and ensure that the roll pin that retains the buffer bumper is flush or below flush. Try to find out where it's dragging 3. This was the 2nd type of .308 AR I purchased many years ago after my first ArmaLite AR-10T. That’s the original DPMS LR-308 configuration. I remember when it catalogued, because we got one through the FFL in 2004 for a customer/friend of mine. got mine in 2007, and its extractor bent within the first few rounds. The chamber was also really tight and needed polishing, but you don’t want to polish excessively because that doesn’t help with obturation, and increases bolt thrust due to reduction in coefficient of friction of the case against the chamber walls. 4.

As a starting point...Do the "mag fed, one round... looking for BCG lock back" test.After firing the single mag fed round.. and If it locks back on the empty mag... it appears to have enough gas to function.Then we'll chase other possible issues.FWIW... there is a good chance it needs a proper cleaning and relube be sure to clean the chamber of any storage oils.... and more break in time. Lasty an article on the subject of buffers. There’s a good amount of information out there online already when it comes to what buffer weights and springs you should use for AR-15s but not a whole lot of clarity when it comes to AR 10 buffer weights. Today, we aim to remedy that, and lets do the AR10 buffer weights and springs some justice. To figure out which AR-10 buffer weight and spring combination will work best in your AR10 or LR308 rifle, you’ll have to first understand some key differences between the AR-10 and LR 308 platforms. Essentially, here are the main takeaways that you should know: AR10 is a term often incorrectly and interchangeably used with LR308. Most people actually mean LR308 when they say “AR-10”. Armalite 10 rifle parts are largely not interchangeable with the AR-15. Several LR-308 parts are universally interchangeable with the AR15. The shape of the two different upper receivers are different but have no functional difference. AR-10 refers to Armalite’s design. LR308 refers to the DPMS design. Sometimes also called ‘AR-308’. DPMS stands for Defense Procurement Manufacturing Services (company’s full name is DPMS Panther Arms). Going forward we’ll continue to use the term ‘AR-10’ (in your head you can replace this term with ‘AR-308’ specifically because that’s what we sell) just think of “AR-10” as an overarching, caliber specific designation and not a reference to the original Armalite rifle. ARE AR 15 AND AR 10 BUFFER SPRINGS THE SAME? Technically, yes. All AR10 buffer springs and buffer weights are going to be able to fit in any AR-15 or LR-308 rifle. Whether they will make your rifle cycle consistently and perform reliably is a different story. That’s why there are specific buffer spring designs and various buffer weights which will work better or worse for certain length rifles. But yes, AR-15 and AR308 buffer springs specifically are the same length which makes them directly interchangeable.You can actually run your AR10 rifle without any “AR10 buffer” and just use the spring. Only the first couple or few shots will work but the experience will not be pleasant. The violent action of the BCG going back and forth will be more intense and cause more wear and tear on your gun. There’s also no guarantee that the gun will cycle consistently.The main difference in the AR buffer springs lies in the length. Going back to the actual AR-10 (Armalite design), the interchangeability is not reliant on whether you’re using an AR10 or AR308, it’s actually a buffer tube issue. AR15 style stocks are compatible with both AR15’s and AR10’s, hence the compatibility, because they use the same length buffer tubes. But if you use an A1/A2 style stock it will require a longer spring. AR10 BUFFERS (LR 308) EXPLAINED There are three types of buffers – rifle buffers, carbine buffers and adjustable buffers. So when do you use a carbine buffer vs a rifle buffer? Carbine buffers or buffers with weights that fall under the H2 or H3 category are most commonly what AR-10 owners should be using along with carbine length butt stocks. Rifle buffers are really only used with the A1/A2 style buttstocks due to the rifle buffer tube being longer. Basically every buffer used today is going to be some sort of carbine length buffer.Why are buffer weights important? If you were to shoot with just a buffer spring and no buffer weight in a full auto/select fire AR-10 — you’d likely experience light strikes and because the timing of the bolt going back and forth would be off and not completely in sync with the hammer. Having a buffer slows that cyclical action down to help you avoid light strikes, promote reliable cycling of rounds being fired, ejected and properly fed into the chamber. Once dialed in, you might surprise yourself with a softer and flatter shooting AR10 style rifle than you initially expected. You also don’t want too heavy of a buffer either otherwise you risk slowing down that bolt way too much which would cause malfunctions or failures. CHOOSING AN AR10 BUFFER WEIGHT Generally speaking, don’t get hung on the rifle length buffers. AR10 carbine buffer weights will range anywhere between 3.8 to 5.4 oz for any AR10 style rifle. But that weight range can also depend on where you’re getting the AR 10 buffer from as well. The chart above is specifically for Odin Works’ adjustable buffers which allow users to tune their buffer weight to get your AR308 rifle cycling just the way you want.There’s no “one size fits all” answer when it comes to the topic of AR10 buffer weights and springs because there are just so many factors involved. Namely, the rifle length, ammunition load, buffer weight, buffer spring type, whether you’re shooting suppressed, etc. Some experimentation or trial and error is going to be inevitable but with this information you can make a better and more educated guess. Unlike the AR-15 buffer weights, we don’t have a chart for you based on length of rifle for AR-10s because there is less of a barrel length difference in AR10 style rifles. Most barrels are going to be around 18” to 20”.But understanding the symptoms, like if you’re experiencing short stroking or a failure to feed or eject — will also help you know what you’re dealing with and advise your next move. Below, you’ll see a figure for how to diagnose the “health” of your rifle’s ejection angle based on which direction empty casings are flying after extraction. This concept applies to the AR-15 just the same as the AR-10 or AR-308. DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE GAS BLOCK A lot of people seem to forget how big of an impact the gas block can have on the shooting experience of any AR platform rifle. Most factory built guns are going to come with an overgassed gas block which will promote higher reliability between different parts and a wider variety of ammunition loads.But when you’re building your own rifle from the ground up that tends to get in the way of properly tuning your rifle. That’s why it’s highly advantageous to have an adjustable gas block as it could mean the difference of your rifle cycling or not. Still, it’s best to think about the adjustable gas block as a fine tuning process whereas the majority of your guesswork is going to be within the buffer system.
  18. I hope you're not talking about me, because I had one issue with one gun and it was factory new, do a little search and talk poop to those that corrected my issue, and by the way I have 3 308s and 10 15s, so blow me
  19. Really? I relayed the the exact information that fixed my issue, I don't dance in mindfields, I lay them out, why not do a little search and tell everone that gave me the same advice to fix mine that they're wrong too.
  20. bullpoopy, the spring is wrong fact. and 99% its oil, the 308s need a ton, and factory buffers are all you need, that said he puts the carbine spring in, and does the test fire, then if it works it was the spriing, if not then its a gas issue, this is common trouble shooting. you dont start messing with springs and buffers before ruling all else out. its not an AR15, and if its new and even remotely dry its not going to work, It can be rough machining on the bolt. I had this issue with a real factory new DPMS, and had gunsmiths and fellow owners who told me what to check and wow they were right so who are you to claim my advice is wrong? do you even know where a round eject if is under or over gassed? only a moron would run out and buy a fancy buffer when they haven't even ruled out the gas block. and I gave him the published buffer weight and spring specs. He's obviously new to the platform so you're the one with bad info. do you even know the difference between G1 and G2? i'm gonna bet you don't because people most confuse it with something else.
  21. First off the buffer is correct but thats a rifle length spring, the spring should be 9 3/4" Get the proper spring first and see if it works, if not Put one round in the mag and fire and even if the slide doesnt lock it should eject at 3-430ish, get me that info and I'll know exactly what the issue is.
  22. I'm missing something 308 is 308 what does a lack of a winchester mark mean?
  23. The rule is the opposite of 5.56/223, in the this case 7.62/51 is lower pressure than 308, and all AR/LRs will shoot 308, and I own an original DPMS as well and there is no issue and impossible to have just by the ammo facts
  24. Its .525 high, I used a quick mount and Vortex 5-25x50 I get flack for it sitting two inches aft the charge handle but with the prs stock i have perfect eye relief so i'm not short what a move forward would do for me.
  25. My scopes are mounted just like yours, but i'm told they should not extend past the charge handle. Now if you have proper eye relief then why would it matter ? Has anyone mentioned this to you?
