It's on a Mega set, for fuk's sake. Do the PRI. Don't cheap out now, not on that upper and lower.

Eff that - do it on this one. It deserves it. Run the PRI.

I'm glad I could be of assistance in my previous endeavors, and will GLADLY help you in the future. I believe we have a few training targets that are currently active. Just let me know, and we will commence the "advanced" training seminars immediately... <dontknow> <lmao>

^^^ Sounds like Operator Error... <lmao> :eek: :hornet:

LImp-wrist a pistol once, and you'll understand it. Don't limp-wrist it. That's exactly what he's talking about.

Fixed that for ya.

We can handle that one, down here in AZ. We meet at Jon's range, and we go full-on Gallagher on $HIT. <lmao> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gasAFyonmmI

Quite worrying about what to do to it, and take it out and shoot it. Run it as-is at 1k yards, if that's your goal. See how it does. Come back with results from the 1k yard shooting festiities, and let us know how it - and you - did. Recommendations will come after that. Don't mod it until you know what IT can do. If you outshoot it, out of the box, make the mods that you need to get it up to YOUR shooting level.

^^^ No, it doesn't - or you wouldn't be trying to leave us... <lmao>

TT had a couple different locations. You're right, it's different without Logan there now.

^^^ Still evasive... <laughs>

I like how Greg conveniently didn't answer the question about his recent Varget acquisition... <lmao>

Noooow... I see what you did there... <lmao>

Didn't the CT ban start before Clinton's 1994 AWB, by a few extra years? I thought it did. <dontknow>

The job was pretty much finished by August 2002. From January to August 2002, we assisted our Phil brothers in reducing their numbers from almost 1,000, to about 100. From that point on, it was "stabilization," and it's been going on ever since.

Those guys have been good for, literally, decades. Mid 90's I was hitting their retail store up, when it was only a military surplus store. Right out side of Ft Lewis, WA (now Joint-Base Lewis/McChord).

For more readily available info, search out the following terms: JTF-510 OEF-P (Operation Enduring Freedom-Philippines) Abu Sabaya Khadaffy Janjalani I can give several more names to search for, that reveal a $hit-ton of intel from open-source Phil-news, but that just wouldn't be right.

It also wasn't a year after 9/11 attacks. I was there in mid-Jan 2002. There's alot of details left out of that article, but I can point you to alot of details about that initial operation. Research Martin and Gracia Burnham, Deborah Yap, Guillermo Sobero. Research Abu Sabaya, and all of the ASG (Abu Sayyaf Group).

Joint Special Operations Task Force-Philippines. According to this, they'll be standing down. US reportedly will disband anti-terror force in Philippines Published June 26, 2014 June 11, 2014: In this photo released by the Philippine National Police Public Information Office (PNP-PIO) in Manila, Philippines, Khair Mundos, a top commander of the Abu Sayyaf extremist group who is on the U.S. list of most-wanted terrorists and has acknowledged receiving Al Qaeda funds to finance bombings in the country, undergoes a police booking procedure following his capture near Manila's international airport. (AP Photo/Philippine National Police Public Information Office) After more than a decade of helping fight Al Qaeda-linked militants, the United States is disbanding an anti-terror contingent of hundreds of elite American troops in the southern Philippines where armed groups such as Abu Sayyaf have largely been crippled, officials said Thursday. But special forces from the U.S. Pacific Command, possibly in smaller numbers, will remain after the deactivation of the anti-terror contingent called Joint Special Operations Task Force Philippines, or JSOTF-P, to ensure Al Qaeda offshoots such as Abu Sayyaf and the Indonesia-based Jemaah Islamiyah militant network do not regain lost ground, according to U.S. and Philippine officials. The move marks a new chapter in the long-running battle against an Al Qaeda-inspired movement in the southern Philippines, viewed by the U.S. as a key front in the global effort to keep terrorists at bay. It reflects shifting security strategies and focus in economically vibrant Asia, where new concerns such as multiple territorial conflicts involving China have alarmed Washington's allies entangled in the disputes. A year after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the U.S. military established the task force in the southern Philippines to help ill-equipped Filipino forces contain a bloody rampage by Abu Sayyaf gunmen, who carried out bombings, terrorized entire towns and kidnapped more than 100 people, including three Americans. Although U.S. forces are barred by the Philippine Constitution from local combat, the advice, training, military equipment and intelligence, including drone surveillance, that they provided helped the underfunded Philippine military beat back the Abu Sayyaf. U.S.-backed Philippine offensives whittled the militants' ranks from a few thousand fighters -- mostly drawn from desperately poor hinterland villages -- to about 300 gunmen, who survive on extortion and kidnappings for ransom while dodging military assaults. "Our partnership with the Philippine security forces has been successful in drastically reducing the capabilities of domestic and transnational terrorist groups in the Philippines," U.S. Embassy Press Attache Kurt Hoyer said in a written response to questions sent by email by The Associated Press. The remaining terrorists, he said, "have largely devolved into disorganized groups resorting to criminal undertakings to sustain their activities." That success has led U.S. military planners in coordination with their Philippine counterparts "to begin working on a transition plan where the JSOTF-P as a task force will no longer exist," Hoyer said, adding there were currently about 320 American military personnel left in the south. There were about 500 to 600 American military personnel in the south before the drawdown. Hoyer said a still-unspecified number of U.S. military personnel from the Pacific Command would remain under a new unit called the PACOM Augmentation Team to provide Filipino forces with counter-terrorism and combat training and advice, and "ensure that violent extremist organizations don't regain a foothold in the southern Philippines." He suggested the remaining American personnel would move away from training exercises with Filipino combat units in the field, and shift to working with Philippine security forces at unified commands and headquarters units. The timing of such withdrawals from counterterrorism campaigns from the southern Philippines to Afghanistan has been a dilemma for the U.S., which must ensure that remaining extremist forces are not able to bounce back. Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin said Philippine officials have been notified of the U.S. move and expressed confidence that Filipino forces could deal with any lingering threat from Muslim extremists in the south, scene of a decades-long Muslim separatist rebellion in the predominantly Roman Catholic nation. Gazmin said with the scaling down of the U.S. presence in the south, the Americans would renew a presence elsewhere in the country to help address another security worry -- China's increasingly assertive behavior in the disputed South China Sea, where Beijing, Manila and four other governments have been locked in increasingly tense territorial disputes. The U.S. and the Philippines, which are defense treaty allies, signed a 10-year pact in April that will allow possibly thousands of American forces temporary access to selected Filipino military camps and enable them to preposition fighter jets and ships. The Philippines' efforts to protect its territory have dovetailed with Washington's intention to pivot away from years of heavy military engagement in the Middle East to Asia, partly as a counterweight to China's rising clout.

Clean it like you would after shooting shotshells out of your rifled slug gun barrel...

Yeah, not bad. 168 or 175?

Oh, I understand you, Jimmy... I just don't think you understand yet... <lmao> I amend my comment to be accurate for your state laws - Your other barrel won't be swapped into your current config. It's going to turn into another, separate, upper receiver... Man, these things are like Lay's potato chips. You can't have just one. That, I guarantee you. The best thing you can do for yourself, especially since you've entered this gun-ownership world... is move. I know, I know, we hear it all the time, especially from the site owner of this very place here. "I can't, I can't, work, family, yada yada yada..." One day, you will realize - the politicians in YOUR state don't give one $hit about you, or your rights. The only thing that YOU can do to change that is to move the fuk out, and diminish their state income tax level by one-more-person. Eventually, when most people in your state are tired of that $hit, and they DO move, they're going to start to feel it. Until then, until money impacts them, they don't and won't care about you. Off the :soap: now...

Mine's never missing, until I go to bed - then it's beside me.

Please explain what specific parts you're talking about, because your advice to this guy just doesn't make sense. Your comments should be clarified before someone else reads it, finds some generic parts you're talking about, installs them... and we're diagnosing some other problem they are having, after that.

Not really, man - the real fix is to break it in with a couple hundred rounds of .308 Winchester commercial off-the-shelf ammo, with the upper receiver wet with lube, and get the function of the rifle down. After that, move to some military 7.62x51 ammo, and have at it. These big fuckers need to be broken in, and parts meshed. Bearing surfaces on the BCG, inside the upper receiver, bolt lugs-to-barrel extension - all that stuff needs to be properly pounded into place, whilst wet with lube. Hell, even magazines need to be broken in - don't go load your brand new 20-rd mag with 20 rounds, and expect perfection. Load light in the mags, break those bastards in, too. These things ain't AR-15s...
