...for the moment. Pretty soon we'll be helping you find the most competitive places to sell your neighbors' stuff, without their knowledge of course.... >:D

It's your only option for non-reticle sights when you utilize a low profile gas block.

I'm becoming addicted to cheapie scopes that work surprisingly well... I've got an Osprey 10-40x52 w/ Mil-Dot on order from Georgia Optics. Stupid gun shows!

I had the same problem, so I just bought an unwanted one in OD green (very cheaply I might add) and Krylon'd it. Worked like a charm!

Sounds like you are pretty well on track brother, I'd have to say your only contentious point is on barrel length. After a certain barrel length, you aren't making any substantial gains in accuracy, you're just adding weight and barrel whip. In your case, 16" is plenty for what you're wanting to achieve, and the only thing that is going to hurt you with regard to accuracy is having too thin a profile. That shouldn't be a problem if you're ordering a custom barrel anyways. EDIT: Oh, BTW, welcome to the forums! <thumbsup>

I don't have any interest in being argumentative about this, but simply put, I don't agree with you. Talk to some of the top of the line AR builders out there and they will tell you that most of the things that make a bolt gun superbly accurate also apply to ARs. I hadn't had my LR-308 for the first week before I could see the accuracy difference between off the shelf ammo and handloads. Just my .02 though brother, we all have our own point of view. :)

Handled one of these today in the pawn shop, that thing is ergonomically the sweetest rifle I've ever handled. Has anyone else been checking it out?

Good to see you back in the forums again! You've missed some stuff!

First of all, Rsquared, don't touch the RRA new guy just yet. Second, welcome to our forums. This place is like the Hotel California for your finances, just sayin'.

I'm a patient and determined person. Everyone on Armalite's staff will probably beg them to send me one just so I'll leave them alone. If they answer their e-mails, they're in big trouble! ;)

Hey, I'm finally building an Armalite patterned system for once, and I desperately need an adjustable gas system such as is featured on your S.S.A.S.S. system, could you help me out?

It's no Armalite, but I love it all the same. They hate, because they WANT! ... and who can blame them, really? They have such good taste.

LOL I'm still giggling over this thing... Don't worry, I'll gladly let you ALL shoot it.

I hate, absolutely HATE repeating myself. No matter how many hundreds of times you have to repeat the most mundane instructions, it still passes over the heads of the knuckle dragging cavemen that management loves to hire. ARRGH!

Aw, come on bro, riding with us, that'd be the quickest 10 hours of your lifetime.

No kidding, who could resist that 1000 watt smile?

I know Jody, I'm trying to get the last 3 of his license plate but he's always in a hurry....

Happy Father's Day fellas, you guys are the epitome of the kind of dads this world needs. Keep up the good work!

Correct on my order. Please PM me info on how & where to pay.

Whoa, whoa, WHOA! Where's the can bro?

Also, that is NOT me in the video, that is my coworker Richard. I'm much better looking than him. It can also be noted that with just one exposure to the rifle, he automatically wants one. The recruits will be rolling in soon, be on the lookout.

Here's some range footage as promised! Second round jammed, probably because we were running it dry, but all subsequent rounds fired without any failures whatsoever.

Put me down for 3 large of #1.

This is so the generation of button pushers coming up now can be snipers if they grow up.
