Not bad for a bunch a knuckleheads

While it looks bad it’ll be ok

Spare parts are never bad, I’d suggest the whole Armalite recoil kit. For now, it’s working and I’d leave it alone as it’s mostly correct with the mixed parts. Many here have been running a combination like or similar to that for a long while.

BEST QUOTE OF THE THREAD!!!! welcome racer, as you can see, we have fun, we shoot and many have car/bike issues too

Yeah buddy!

As for the big brother thing lol, I’m pretty sure unless your moving large amounts of guns illegally finishing an 80% isn’t exactly on the big radar

Here’s what your spring and buffer should be

1. Magpul (correct spelling for the brand) doesn’t make a steel magazine. Magpol isn’t a known brand at all and may be a different issue altogether. 2. Your spring is too short, not too long, so that’s something else. 3. Yes, your buffer is too light. 5.4 oz is the minimum correct weight. 4. I’m inclined to believe you have tolerance stacking issues with your receivers after reading your first post on this build. None of this matters without more information and pictures of the build

Spring is an AR15 spring and is wrong and your buffer is too light. I’m also inclined to know if this has shot before or is a new build. Receivers? Where does the gas tube fall in the cam pin cut out? This first please

Small frame and large frame safety’s are the same. They are taking advantage of you if they claim otherwise

I totally agree. With all of this (don’t tell Matt, plus, what the hell is unimpeachable?!) ive been shooting ten round groups, off a mat and prone loading the bipod. At 100 yds I’m usually getting just under 1.25” That’s me being the weak link. if you’re truly concerned the only true way to know is shoot off a bench with the gun in a sled or vise. Take the human out of the machine. If you know you pull a shot or two (or more) but are generally happy then forget it and practice those fundamentals. also, 1:10 should be shooting 168-175 gr match stuff for accuracy for best results. Nothing wrong with m80 for steel and practice but if you want pretty paper targets then go heavier and test out some different stuff. I haven’t got a load for .308 yet but an example of 5.56: Mk12 mod 0 rifle 1-7 18” SPR profile with rifle gas, likes heavies, mk262 shoots amazing. I cloned it with 77gr SMK, LC brass, 23.8 gr of Varget. It’s very close, maybe only 1/4 more for group size but costs a fraction to produce. The gun shoots my hand loads around 1” prone on the bipod with 10 shot groups. you just got to find out what she likes

You gas block clearance is fine. I don’t believe you slightly off center issue will affect accuracy but is more of a cosmetic concern if functionally the rifle is ok. Scope and mount? Possibly, but…. I’m going straight to ammo. Pms is fine ammo, but… 1. what’s the twist rate of your rifles barrel? 2. have you tried any other factory ammo? 3. what are the projectiles in your hand loads? 4. shooting position? This also can affect groups- we are often the weak link

Now that’s funny! I almost called you from work to see how it went, the suspense was killing me.

Lol, yeah right. He doesn’t have one. Or a smart phone. His desktop is a Commodore 64. Low tech, low problems. High speed low drag.

I did this too, only smaller, with a QB card holder for plays

Rainy days are best. Less traffic

@barrysuperhawk, welcome back!

Triangle tray, no issues once you get the hang of it. 30 bucks and well worth it. Once in a while give the tray a flick if the stick

Yup!

If by standard weight you mean 5.4oz then yes

Measurements are required

16” barrel and 12” handguard will cut weight where it matters most, forward of your pivot point. It will feel like you took double off

I’m in for some, don’t have any of those.... Venmo? Or I can Venmo someone else then they can pay you? Can’t not get in

That’s from your shell deflector. You can add weight to your buffer or cut back on your gas. If you do the latter, go back till it won’t lock open on empty then go one up so it will

I think we have the full cad drawings here somewhere..... but that’s a rabbit hole in and of itself. Welcome aboard!
