You can celebrate your 6,000th post with a warning for that little gem.... >:D

YOU CAN'T HAVE HER! I SAW IT FIRST! <laughs> ... Well, technically, I guess Jon saw it first.. (Sorry bastard) .. but I saw it before you, so you just gotta get in line buster!

This. </thread>

*speechless & drooling*

If you're open to the idea of a .936 gas block size, your options are a little more open. My statement was based on your requirements for chrome-lined, med-weight contour, and .750" gas block. That my friend, is a unicorn. ;) The alpha rail shouldn't be an issue unless you're trying to fit a gas block under the rail, then you might have issues depending on what your GB size happens to be.

I don't want to be rude, but it's the appropriate profile all the way to the gas block. After you reduce the profile to .750 at the gas block, you've got to be @ that diameter or less all the way to the muzzle. Therefore, you will have difficulty locating a medium-profile barrel with a .750 gas block, unless you machine your own profile and use a two-piece gas block.

Yep. Armalite themselves offers chrome-lined 1:10 twist barrels for their AR-10 platform.

The do-it-all rifle has been conceptualized time and again here. You need to know that you aren't wearing out your welcome as much as you're trying to reinvent the wheel. The answer that most of your predecessors arrived at, is to build two uppers for the same lower. One that meets their precision requirements, and one that meets their CQB/SHTF/EOTWAWKI/Zombie Invasion requirements. The problems that will continue to remain a problem, is exactly what wise Mr. Magwa pointed out. Crap ammo is crap, you can't expect anything except the perpetual degradation of performance once you start using it. If price point is your mitigating factor, reloading is still the best choice. There is all kinds of cheap crap to buy for reloading that still won't be as detrimental as Mil-Surp.

^^^^ Wow, whole new meaning for "wet raspberry" right there....

Running Tubbs CS flat-wound with standard rifle buffer, no issues here. Unless there's a fitment issue with the CS flat-wound spring with Slash's buffer, I don't see any reason not to combine them.

You don't need an adjustable GB to run suppressed, it'll just be dirtier on the whole when you clean it. Been shooting through an Ops Inc 12th for quite some time now, only noticeable effect on the gas system is that there's more of it and it seems to cycle more reliably with junk ammo. ;)

You're GTG brother, we've kinda gotten used to doing things in a different manner than most, but you've done nothing wrong. Don't sweat the petty stuff, pet the sweaty stuff. :D

I've been swelling like a balloon for the last 4 years or so, steadily rising from the trim 150lb mark all the way to the blimpish 180lb mark. They're going to have to moor me in a hangar somewhere soon...

That and punching Eugene Stoner in the arm and saying "...and you wanted to give me flak about 'Garand thumb'...." <laughs>

RADAR!!! Man that dude could totally rock a drumset!

DON'T MAKE ME STOP THIS FORUM. I will come back there and the suffering will commence!!!!! C:-) :bat:

Me too. Somebody has to make sure those guys don't weaken their own immune systems!

Considering the state of current affairs, I could care less what revisionist historians think about anybody who has long been vindicated by standing historical accounts. I'm worried about problems caused by presidents who can't even finish their terms without discrediting themselves and their office. It's sad to see our society become a bunch of armchair quarterbacks who need to discredit the men who made this country great, and to what end? What does anyone gain from Lincoln being a villain? Hate to be the oddball, but Lincoln had enough of a reputation with the majority of our society for long enough to be a credible and upstanding figure in my imagination. What he is in anyone else's imagination doesn't have the slightest bearing on anything, being that he is long gone along with anybody that could've legitimately validated or discredited him.

I don't think anyone is making one. Mega Arms had a great thing going with their MTS-4400 but production ceased when they found out LMT held the patents for monolithic receivers. I don't know how Les Baer and LWRC have continued to build monolithic .308 ARs unscathed, but they are the only ones I know of and they aren't DPMS patterned.

Now THAT'S what she said! <laughs>

I was getting tired of the soap slime on my sinks and bathtubs anyways, let 'em come.

No, but only because it violates the premise of her statement. If you had sent a text saying that, you'd be fine.
