Makes perfect sense - but JMs and Safeties need to be watching everything, even when it's at blinding speed on a Mass Tac. Or jumpers die. It's freaky from the JM and Safety side - it looks fast as fuk if you're a jumper, but on the other side of it - it's fast, but in slow motion. If that make any sense. You did great, hooking that dumbass up. No chance for the safety wire in the snap hook on that one. If he's still alive now - he's alive after that jump, because of you. No chance he would'a yanked that Rip Cord Grip... Well done.

Ah Shiit... Did you shoot it yet?...

THAAAAAT LOOKS LIKE A BAFFLE STRIKE... I'm just sayin'...

That's a good stock, and LIGHT, too. You'll like the whole setup.

You can wait 'til the Fall Shoot. Maybe. I know that as SOON as you shoot DK's gun, ur done... If you can manage to NOT shoot it, and stay away, DirtBike Tommy will have his gun out at the shoot, and you can't get away from that... It's just "too much time..." Brace yourself, brother.

Definitely, a "minimum decibel level," or you'd never pass the JM Course. If jumpers couldn't hear YOUR VOICE inside a C-130 bombing along at 130 knots and doors open (or tailgate down), WITH earplugs in... Then they couldn't repeat the jump commands... The only things I ever saw that were truly crazy inside the aircraft were (2) Jump Refusals. They get dealt with rapidly, effeciently, inside the aircraft, and then they get dealt with again at the airfield when the aircraft lands, and then they get dealt with again ASAP back at the unit. Only time I had to take a dude out was... He approached with his eyes closed, literally threw the static line out, and promptly slammed his arms down hard against his sides - well, like he's supposed to, in order to exit the aircraft... "Arms and Elbows TIGHT into your sides!" BUT... with his eyes closed, and throwing that static line, when he slammed his arms down to his sides, he did it so fast that the static line went UNDER his arm. No Bueno, as a static line jumper knows... I close-lined him into the aircraft. He got close to the door, but he never made it out. It was during the conduct of a JM course, and he was a JM student, and he was scared to death of jumping. We had video cameras all over the interior of the aircraft. When all was said and done, he was dismissed from the course - after proper counseling, where he was shown the videos from all angles... I have a couple other "as$hole jumper" stories that I'll share sometime. Most of the time, they're just scared and inexperienced. But, they learn fast. As Fuk.

I LOVE IT!!!

I've got a little bit of JumpMaster time under my belt - you stand the chance of seeing some crazy shiit inside the aircraft. You have to be ready for anything...

Not wrong at all, man, not at all... Dryer sheets - the scented ones. The more heavily scented, the better. Rodents of all types hate those things. I pack/stuff/stick those things all over the nooks and crannies of my camper. Keeps those little fuckers away.

How did the other jumpers around not notice that - and the JumpMaster? And the Safety? Hope he got very familiar with the Reserve Ripcord Grip. Jump Commands (SHOUTED VERY LOUDLY, IN A THUNDEROUS COMMAND VOICE)" +++Time callouts,vary by unit SOP, but there is usually "SIX MINUTES!" at a minimum+++ Get Ready! Outboard personnel, Stand UP! Inboard Personnel, Stand UP! HOOK UP! Check Static lines! Check Equipment! Sound off for Equipment Check! THIRTY SECONDS! STAND BY! GO! Those three in red were ignored by the jumper, and those around him. JumpMaster should have kicked him straight in the chest, back into the aircraft, as he approached the door - with no static line to handoff...

It's NOT DIRT! It's "Dirte"... Welcome aboard, man.

YES!!! Great lookin' little Brindle!!! Maybe not crazy like Tig? Fantastic addition, brother, truly fantastic!

I'll have DirtBike Tommy bring his to the Fall Shoot. He's about $2k deep, and it's badass...

This deal is still live, men - if you can add it to your cart, you will get it. https://www.surplusammo.com/products/saa-ar-15-m16-bolt-assembly-w-pins-nitride-9310-mpi-223-5-56-300aac.html If you guys fuk around and don't buy them out, I'm buying more this Friday. Get to it.

Just to touch on this - the forward assist is the same part, be it AR15 or .308AR. AR15 BCGs have serrations, and the forward assist grabs them. .308ARs don't care about serrations - because the pawl on the forward assist wouldn't grab any of those serrations anyway, because it's too short for that. On a .308AR, the forward assist WILL GRAB the shoulder on the BCG, and if it can grab that shoulder, it WILL seat the round. That's it's design, by it's very nature. The AR15 shiit came WAAAAY after all the AR-10 design. The AR15 shiit included the serrations, and that came from the US Army, stating it had to be there. In a nutshell - forward assists DO work on Large Frame ARs - all .308ARs. But only at that last very small "click." The FA WILL seat a round. But the common ideology for the Large Frames is... if that thing didn't chamber, do I really wanna FORCE it?!... some people say NO WAY!!!... But I've done it. Doesn't matter. I wouldn't force a brand new, never fired handload like that. But for a common load, that I've always been using? I'm gonna make it chamber, if I have to.

You quoted me, but I'm betting it's for @Rsquared - he's in the armpit of MD, almost lives in DC... I'm trying to rescue him, and move him to Skull Valley with me.

Holiday weekends are fun in the dunes - as you know from rescues - but off-weekends are when you really get to ride, and not worry about shiitheads out there... Too much money, and not enough experience, fuks people up. In my book, it doesn't matter what you ride, it just matters THAT you ride. Well done, man, with the 250F.

You have no idea how much it warmed my stone-cold heart, to read that, brother.

Yep... I have one left. It's a standard MOE + in FDE, so PM me your mailing address again, and it's on the way. I think all the rest went into the campfire, after I couldn't give 'em away out here... Nobody likes those things out here, except for AZ Newbies...

Yep, exactly. I'll take Nitride any day of the week. Both of them beat the shiit out of old-skool phosphate, hands down, but I like the Nitride for the reasons you just stated. NiB is sexy - as fuk - but I want the gun to run. It ain't built to win beauty pageants.

Well, I just found this, right on JPs website - and the equivalent weight is 5.0oz. AR-10 Carbine buffers (and AR15 H3 buffers) are 5.4oz. Doesn't seem like a big deal, but let's see how it does... If you don't get the spacer cut right, and if it doesn't work right after that, then get the parts I listed above ^^^... Compatibility The JPSCS2-10 is designed to work in standard 7-inch M16/M4-length buffer extension tubes on .308 AR-type rifles like the DPMS LR-308. Armalite .308 rifles, likewise, use these standard M16 extension tubes with rifle-length stocks, so this unit will function normally when installed with the supplied spacer. However, Armalite's .308 carbines use a slightly longer, non-standard carbine extension tube. The JPSCS2-10 can still be used with these extension tubes by installing the spacer, which must be modified to fit. Alternately, the system will function readily if the longer Armalite carbine tube is replaced with a standard 7-inch .223 carbine extension tube.

Just make sure that the JP you ordered is for an Armalite AR-10 Carbine, first up. If it's not, it won't work. If you need a regular old buffer and spring, with that MagPul M110/SR25 extension (a verified replacement for the AR-10 Carbine Receiver Extension, at 7 5/8" internal depth), then you'll need any old AR15 Carbine H3 buffer (3.250" long), and an Armalite EA1095 recoil spring.

No, brother!!! But NOW you did it... I'm talking about these:

I love the look of those chopped-down carry handle A2 rear sights. Well done. That's probably the rear-sight route I'm gonna go on the next one coming up. It's either that, or another MaTech rear.

NiB is fine, if it's from a quality manufacturer, or from a reliable vendor - BA is all that, in spades, too. NiB adds to the external dimensions, when applied. Smart manufacturers know this, and machine accordingly, for the coating. Cheap NiB coatings can flake off. Smart manufacturers don't cheap out on the coating, and this isn't a problem from them. Nitride goes into the surface, doesn't add anything to the dimensions, and is a surface treatment, not a coating. 6 of one, 1/2 dozen of the other. Buy a quality NiB BCG/bolt, and you can't go wrong.
