Yo my man, you will soon find that some people (not gonna say any names here) that raise a fuss about posting in ancient threads, are also prime suspects every time a perfectly good thread gets derailed off into some kind of nonsensical ADHD shiny-object blather.... To quote our dear founder, "Don't sweat the petty stuff, pet the sweaty stuff!". Welcome to the forum, enjoy yourself here!

Dear Diary, December 18th, 2021 @ 12:58am, I got the upper hand on Tom, and now that my life goal has been accomplished, I feel aimless and lost, completely unsure of what to do with my life now....

@SubGrub allow me to make an attempt to help you out here a little bit; This forum has been around for a little while now, and in that time we've all seen our fair share of newcomers to the platform who show up wanting to build a large-frame AR platform that's perfect for everything from room clearing, to 3-gun, to precision long-range shooting, and they want all of that to come in under 6 lbs as well. Well, it's never happened yet. That's because these platforms will excel at a specific purpose if you build it for a specific purpose, but you need to figure out what your biggest priority is for this build. When you state that precision shooting will be an expected function of this build, your binary trigger becomes an immediate reject, here's why: A binary trigger is most useful for a high rate of fire, everything that will suffer due to a high rate of fire (namely accuracy and therefore effectiveness) goes right out the window with all the dynamics of a high firing rate. Will it dump out expensive ammo really quickly? Yes, but otherwise it will be very unimpressive. Will it dump out cheap ammo really quickly? Yes, but it will be otherwise unimpressive, unless you're interested in communicating how much more money you have than sense to onlookers. You haven't clearly communicated any real priorities for what this build needs to accomplish, usually folks can at least articulate that they're looking to do one of the following as their goal: minimize weight (it's a large-frame AR,duh), maximize speed (it's a large AR, everything is bigger, heavier, slower), maximize accuracy, maximize effectiveness in terms of terminal ballistics, mock up smaller AR roles and platforms in the larger AR (DMR), hunting, plinking, wasting ammo as fast as possible, etc etc. Right now the only thing we know with any certainty is which trigger you want, but that tells us nothing definitive about what you want the rifle to do effectively.

That's 'cause you're so nasty that even infectious organisms know that you're a hostile environment... 🤣

Everything that cat sniffs smells tainted...

Welcome to the forum, we're glad to have you!

She's bad about giving the cold shoulder.... .... 'cause she's a cold, frigid b*tch, with enormous balls.

I never bought into the heavy buffer shmoo until the one Clint sent me kept me from losing track of the bullet trace on the MA TEN in the optic, and now I'm a believer....

I've heard some good reports and seen some really impressive groups out of both of those guns. I was duly impressed...

Awww man, check that sexy beast out! That Mk12 doesn't look too bad either....

@98Z5V has probably lost count of the number of PSA PA-10s he's personally made run like a sewing machine, and that's just the ones we know about. You ought to see the stats on unregistered visitors to his threads on fixing their issues, there are a lot more fixed guns that's he'll never be appropriately credited for than just what meets the eye. Thank you for dropping a thank-you note where it's due, I wish more folks were doing that.

Fixed that for you, DEWS hides from noone. Well, except for blueberry...

Who doesn't love a nice set of large turrets? I'm definitely turned on by them...

The sad truth is, that wouldn't be the ugliest dog he ever smashed... Just sayin'!

The Timney Calvin Elite is probably your best bet then. It so happens that the Geiselle NM is adjustable, but it's a two-stage trigger no matter how adjustable. https://timneytriggers.com/ar-calvin-elite-single-stage-drop-in/

I've got the Geiselle National Match built into several of my rifles now, they are difficult to surpass.

Hi. 🙂

No!

I noticed a distinct lack of ball-busting and chest thumping over running MOA optics this year at the Fall Shoot.... As it turns out, @Moon Boots also happens to utilize MOA optics. Coincidence? Of course, who am I kidding.... It has to be!

Okay, gotcha, thanks for clarifying. I don't like jumping to conclusions, if I don't understand the argument I'll say so and spare myself the embarrassment of assuming. I don't know that the shooter didn't call LEO, I saw nothing to suggest that he had or had not, so that's a moot point for me. I'm not with you on the shooter leaving, the shooter was on his property the whole time, had no obligation or duty to leave, especially with an aggressive bozo getting nasty with the spouse. It might be what some folks would do, but it's not what I would do. Coming back with a gun after said bozo has been asked to leave and is now trespassing and getting nasty with the spouse? You can wait until he snaps her neck if you want... Me, I'd have just gone and gotten the gun, like the guy who is still alive did. As an aside, asking the aggressor to leave satisfies any obligation to attempt to de-escalate the situation. As for whether or not he was looking to kill the guy, I won't pretend to know his motives, but I have to admit that there's plenty of justification for what he did that meets the standards of the presumption of innocence and reasonable doubt.

We used to be able to add pics via the 'edit' feature, is that not working anymore?

I'm confused, do you mean the shooter didn't call LEO, or the aggressor didn't call LEO? Or both, and is that something you know, or conjecture? Did the shooter know exactly what he himself (shooter) was looking for, or are you saying the shooter knew what the aggressor was looking for? I'm not being facetious with you, as you're a new member and I don't know you well enough to mistreat you (yet), but it's 2am where I am and apart from saying the shooter should go to jail, your meaning is otherwise unclear. Oh, and welcome to the forums!

LOL I didn't want to say it, but that's the actual very 1st thing I thought about,
