LAPG is running a special, for a limited item. Get 'em fast!

Short answer to the short question - No, it is not over. You mentioned seeing "parts, accessories and ammunition that was almost impossible to come by 3 weeks ago is now readily available at several venders with declining prices..." I'm curious as to what those parts, accesories and ammunition items are, because it's still damn tough to find most things. The only thing I've seen making a comeback is .22LR ammo, from certain manufacturers, and it sells out immediately.

Barnes stopped production of the .224 70gr TSX round. THAT tore me up.

It's that TSX round, brother - that thing is wicked. Barnes does load this one themselves, and it's the Barnes VOR-TX boxed stuff. Those are all TSX loadings (the VOR-TX, that is). I've been looking for the 110s for the Blackout from them, but that poop is OOS everywhere.

The PRS takes the A1-length AR-15 rifle receiver extension. Just for info. Any AR15 rifle-length receiver extension will work. And, you're right - they're not easy to find right now. They're out there, but you have to dig - if Robo doesn't have one.

Dave, I was gonna recommend the same thing, when I saw your initial post. WMD Guns does NiB coating, which would be my suggestion for a part that has so much movement. <thumbsup>

This is also not an AR-10-specific thread, so I don't understand why it's in this section - at least, at the point it has progressed to.

Neither one of those devices are a combo of Brake and Flash hider, in one, and thus irrelevant in this thread. Not trying to be an ass, but this thread is about one device that fulfills both roles.

I missed it - sold the hell out FAST! :'(

Few boxes local. 125gr OTM Match @ $39 a box of 20. There are a few places that you can place backorders, Brownell's being one of them.

Improper torque when it was assembled. Otherwise, it won't loosen up - as you've seen - because the gas tube is almost a "locking pin" for the barrel nut. Here's the thread to the other instance:

That's damn good info, right there, Terry! <thumbsup>

Just hold the trigger all the way to the rear when you shoot - that's what you're looking for, for trigger follow-through. You can't check Natural Point Of Aim without trigger follow-through, so that's one way to keep it in your head. Your trigger finger should still be holding the trigger to the rear, after the rifle recovers from recoil and settles again...

I doubt the additional bolt lock time will do a thing, and won't add any excessive chamber pressure. The round runs fine, by design, in a bolt gun, and it's lock time could be forever. Literally. Your barrel nut is loose. Don't shoot it like that. Time for disassembly, to tighten that barrel nut. This same thing just came up not long ago - I think ss diagnosed and fixed this for a friend with a CMMG.

PERFECT use of the word, my brother!!! <laughs> <lmao>

This is the one DNP was talking about... <laughs> http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?3880087

poop, I would have been at your place, had I known! <dontknow> You cut the case short, so there's not so much "spring leverage" when the end of the round is on the bolt face. Stays put that way. It's in there strong enough to tap the pin right out. I have a small, drilled piece of wood (hole) for the bolt tail to go into. Loosen up mini-vise, and everything slowly comes apart. <thumbsup>

Hell yeah, it was... :hethan:

Sounds like you worked WAY too hard, bro - here's all you needed, with a cut-down casing, maybe 1/4" of the base, at the most:

Did you build this, or buy it complete from a factory (or buy it as a built gun from someone else)? Does it have an AR15 bolt catch in it?

Check with SI Defense, too, brother - they make a stainless one. People have had them sent out via USPS flat-rate, so don't get freaked by shipping. Do the whole thing on the phone with them.

I have handled one, whilst visiting Jon - bad idea. I wanted to do the paperwork right then. It was the standard magazine, and I really want to handle one with the 7rd extended magazine first, before I let it suck the money out of my wallet... <laughs> It is a very nice piece. P.S. Your refined degree of gun-pushing instigator qualities have not gone unnoticed... <lmao>

Pure excellence. I look forward to more, and I hope it spreads to the American public. They really, really picked some great people for this. Time to donate.
