N Jensen, the one thing I saw in this thread - and it's not a dig on you, in the least - there are options out there, and others are stating those options. Then I see you, stating that it must be one way, one way only, and there are no other options. Brother, when we stop listening, we stop learning. If we don't learn, we don't progress. We never get better. I kinda think you are refusing to accept any other way - when there are other ways. On another note - very awesome accomplishments. I have no idea why you haven't talked about those before, because those accomplishments are topics (very good ones) all by themselves. Hell, MANY topics! <thumbsup>

That was such an awesome Redbull setup - they put on some good shows, with crazy action, but this one was the best. <thumbsup> This one was pretty good, and comes close...

Gotta find a way to manage that $hit, man - only shake during your Natural Respiratory Pause, or something... <laughs>

Did you get one yet? Post up any info on how it's working for you? <thumbsup> What I posted isn't "old news." What I posted in an example of what's in my hands, man. Haven't seen anybody else here on this site post what I did... Thought that might be helpful, and maybe help someone that was on the fence about buying one - "Do I do it, or not? Haven't seen one work yet, so I don't know..."

They took a pretty serious ass-whoopin'. I'm just sayin'... First off, I'm in a boat, in the middle of the lake. Trained EYE-talian Attack Ninjas can't swim - it's not in their training manual... I quickly dispatched about 350 of them, just by letting them know that information. Had they not known that, and it not been pointed out, things could have gone WAY differently for me that night. <dontknow>

I've already been looking at the Carry Nightmare. Snatch that, and I get this for free?! Serious?!

Oh, make no mistake - I know what you're talking about, brother. <thumbsup> I myself, in my own way, am putting the pressure on Jon, too - since I'll be funding Dawn Marie's build. With this next check, I just might have a whole 300BLK. :banana: Which means Dawn Marie might get her 300BLK pretty damn quick. Jon, I said, Dawn Marie might be getting her 300BLK pretty damn quick. :eek:

It was the idea - and proof - of these guys right here. I posted this article here, originally. They didn't use a hacksaw - they used a sawzall. http://web.archive.org/web/20080705023514/http://www.sniperschool.com/sniper-rifle-barrel-length/ http://web.archive.org/web/20080705023736/http://www.sniperschool.com/barrel-length-revisited/

Okay, now here's how it all went down... No $hit, there I was, in a boat in the middle of the lake. I was surrounded by 400 trained EYE-talian Attack Ninjas, and all I was armed with was 2 Soju caps and a box of 20 peppermint toothpicks... :bat: I chopped up some brass tonight. Now, I didn't go about it stoopid - I weighed them out first, just to see if this was going to be worth my time. When the numbers came up different, I got curious. .308 Winchester brass, with primer still in it, weighed 168.0 grains even. 7.62x51 NATO brass, with primer still in it, weighed out at 190.3 grains... I suspect Foul Play. Out came the cut-off wheel. As a general rule, the 7.62x51 NATO is on the left. The .308 Winchester is on the right. In all pics below. I can get macro-stupid with these, if you guys want to see more - the original pics are about 4000 wide, and 5mb in size.

We can only go so far with the 550 as a base, brother. We can make it mean, but if we start with something in the 700~800 range as a base, it'll blow your socks off. :hethan: Now, if we start with a 1000cc engine... You have over 200Hp to the tires. :eek: :banana: :hail:

I am getting a BIG paycheck this next one... I'm just sayin'... <dontknow> :banana:

I'd let you short-bus-drivin', window-lickin' bastards drive me anywhere... <lmao>

Damn. Got me looking at this now: http://www.stainlesstumblingmedia.com/products/package-kits/stm-complete-package.html

Guy Tal had them all out on the table, brother - 4 different .308 versions. <thumbsup> * DPMS/SR-25 version * Armalite AR-10 version * SCAR 17 version * H&K G3 version

There will be a real good hands-on writeup right here within a couple weeks. <thumbsup>

Those are Wolff springs - which are good, too.

Wow!!! That is sweet - but I'll bet it's like firing that damn hand-cannon .460 Smith & Wesson! :eek: If I had $5k laying around... well, I wouldn't. I'd blow it on the MRAD... <lmao>

Now, HERE are the out-takes. You wouldn't believe what I had to go through with TweedleDee trying to get this video... :stfu2: (Profanity Warning on the third one, down there VVV...)

Here's the demo - no more sore thumbs from loading all day long. Well, like we can afford to sling enough lead to be "loading all day long..." <lmao>

Whilst in Vegas, I got a frantic text message from Rob... <lmao> "Hey, Drew sent me this to try to get ahold of you - go find MagLula, they have 308 loaders now!" I read the forwarded email from Drew, and it was straight from Guy Tal, of MagLula. I found the booth to go check one out, and he only had TWO left. The one on the table was paint-penned as a demo model, but he DID have just one more under the table... >:D They're not available on his website yet, but they are listed as "Coming in November 2013"

"...like he always does..." <laughs> <thumbsup>

And the Smacketh Has Been Laid Down! <lmao> "...and I shall lay the smacketh down upon thee!!!" Jon, you better HURRY, brother.

Looks like the base of the gas key is part of the carrier - but the round forward portion is one single, longer "tube" that is pressed and pinned into place in that key body/carrier...

Rainier has them, and I'm sure other places will carry it, too. http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=3292

Sounds AWESOME, Larry!!! TWO OF THEM!!! :hethan: Now, get ready for this one... <lmao> Dawn Marie wants her rifle to start out as a 300BLK. THEN her own AR in 5.56. Her Blackout will be NUTS, too!!!
