I don’t have that one. I have he ACE ARFX on my .308 rifle. If you get it, find a foam tube cover, or modify a CAA/MFT cheek rest. My new passion is the AB Arms USS.

The owner of "Heavy Buffers" only uses Armalite springs... https://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-parts/recoil-parts/recoil-springs/modified-308-ar-buffer-spring-prod44698.aspx?avs|Make_3=AR%20xzzx308&psize=96 You're paying for the name brand here, but the VLTOR A5 is the same as the 6 position Armalite AR-10 https://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-parts/buffer-tube-parts/buffer-tubes/ar-15-m16-a5-mil-spec-buffer-tube-prod55056.aspx The buffers "should" be the same; 2.5" long and weighs 3.8oz https://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-parts/recoil-parts/recoil-buffers/308ar-carbine-buffer-prod104527.aspx?avs|Make_3=AR%20xzzx308 Coupon code: PJJ Free shipping and $15 off $150 Coupon code: PJK Free shipping and $35 off $300

That's the complete kit. The parts are also available individually if you know what to look for and where to look.

i Agree with DNP. Open up that bolt and take a look.

Nice family photo

1. Find an Armalite AR-10 or Vltor A5 receiver extension (aka buffer tube). 2. Use an Armalite AR-10 buffet spring. There’s only one size, so if it says “Armalite” and “AR-10” then it’s the correct spring. 3. Check out the American Built Arms (AB Arms) Urban Sniper Stock (USS) with the buttpad extension. 4. Thank me later.

It sounds like a lot of work, but it’s not. 98 is right. The A5 tube, AR10 spring a H3 buffet should run you $40-$50 and only take about 20 minuets to swap out parts. We don’t usually suggest shooting handloads or reloads until AFTER the rifle is well broken in. The 308AR really likes to run WET during her break in period. Not just “a little here on the wear spots”. We’re talking about Hurricane Katrina kinda wet.

Sorry. I missed that 1st/original post about it being a complete rifle. That still doesn’t change the fact that the part might be wrong. I own a small rifle manufacturing company , and every once in a while the wrong part falls in the wrong parts bin. I will cuss and spit for an hour, trying to figure out what is wrong with a rifle, only to break it down and realize that I used a part from a different size format firearm. PSA was notorious for this when they started making 308 rifles.

The Weatherby vanguard is the same rifle as the Howa 1500.

There are about 4 different bolt catches for the .308AR format rifles. Have you tried any other parts?

In all our years, I can’t recall a bolt catch that needed to be drastically resized. You either have the wrong buffer or wrong buffer tube.

Only thing I can find on him is an out dated scam list. Looks like hackers got his PW. There is a Jgun on several other sites. I may have to try to stalk him there.

Tried. I sent him an email a few weeks ago. There was no response.

I miss Jgun. I have a box full of those Colt offset bushings.

Matt... if you draw it, I’ll do my best to get it cut. If I can cut them, I will guarantee you at least one of them.

Is there an online CAD file for the M14 receiver? This might be a fun endeavor.

I hate shimming... but I love a shimmed device. Use RockSet!

Yikes

That's pretty sweet

Excellent plan

Don’t give me wrong though. The PRI and the ARMS do not detract from the level of genius of your A2 modification. I love it. TBH, When I first started reading this thread, I half expected you to split the two bottom lugs with a linear cut, drill and tap them, and run your own crossbolt system

There’s also the ARMS 41-BL Flip up A2

This is ? worthy!!!

Fuckin genius!!! Six set screws, with a bit of red dabbed on the threads, will be solid AF! A half dozen dimples (although I doubt they’d be necessary) would make it even more solid. FWIW.. PRI has a clamp on version as well. I’ve used it successfully on several LW builds.

Are you filling the inside of the synthetic stock?
