The possible issue I see, is that the carbine buffer will allow more rearward travel of the BCG than a standard length buffer. This could allow your BCG to chew your receiver up at the buffer tube threads.

Very sorry to learn of the loss of your friend. Life is short but it feels shorter when someone dies at 62... As @shepp said, it's great that you got to spend time with him before his passing.

That thing has been a scar for a while, I just have to pick at it from time to time all the same..... This is why you can't have nice things!

Thank your lucky stars it's not a one-off you ordered from Lothar Walther....

You still have buffer weight, carrier weight, spring strength, and gas system length to contend with as well.

Primers aren't discounted for me, loaded ammo is though. Loaded ammo is pretty much the only thing from the site that's heavily discounted for members to tell the truth, but that's pretty much all I ever bought anyways.

Word to the wise, Ms. Cleo can't see jack diddly when it comes to conception....

I've told her a thousand times if I've told her once, she's gotta stop using the same washcloth as me...

Amateur..

I've got the exact same SLR GB on 3 rifles, 2 of which are new rifles, and none of which have the SCS. Have never had an issue with either leaking or LRBHO on any of those 3 rifles. What I'm hearing is that you don't want to believe the folks who have told you the SCS is an issue. The odds of it being a factor are far higher than the odds your gas is block causing the issue. Also, as has been stated, your gas port size is well below what it needs to be for function's sake.

Happy Father's day to all my brothers here!

Very VERY nice!

I can either have one of those or go to the Fall Shoot. I'm going to miss you guys come Fall....

That was the point. The downfall of the shark is that he's no good in freshwater. Beaver just holds his breath and doesn't care either way.

Nothing scarier than being pursued by a reanimated beaver, that's for sure.... How do you kill it when it's already died?

That's my thinking as well... He'll win the fight either way, all while holding his breath.

Drills ALWAYS drill a thou or two oversized. Should be fine.

I believe it's a worthy topic. So maybe the saline environment is the preferable environment? Is it arguable within reason that the beaver will be impeded by the increased buoyancy in saline water? If so, is it sufficient in degree to skew the outcome?

Nice!

^^^ Wide open to begin with, as stated above. Who is your GB manufacturer just out of curiousity?

It's true, I did not. Sometimes I think if I didn't learn the hard way, I'd never learn anything at all...

I for one have become a studious disciple of all things pertaining to the mighty beaver. I've become acquainted with their inherent smell, the taste, what they sound like... and believe me, all that research doesn't come cheap. I'd be rich if I had all the money I've ever spent on diapers as a consequence!
