Update on Armalite recoil system kits - ordered another AR-10 carbine recoil system on Tuesday at 10:25pm, got tracking on Thursday morning at 8:59am.

Looking back at this now, a week later - this happens daily here, with Newbs. I'm just sayin...

Shooting here on 6 Feb, if you're in, brother.

Yes, they do use larger, longer pins, if you're comparing it to the AR15 part. No way, no how will the AR15 part work in a .308AR. Searching online is the best way, just to find some - but everything is backordered right now. I'm on a waiting list for 4 of the solid pins, just waiting. Used my last spare a few weeks ago.

@DayWalker got it hard, too...

If you have any difficulties with the MagPul mags, after ordering them from anything that I stated, then I'll buy them from you, and cut your loss. I have plenty of guns that run them well, and that's my money-back guarantee, based on my recommendation.

Drew warned you about how you'd be treated here, once you disclosed your working relationship, right? I'm just asking...

Mikey brought up the breasts - completely NOT MY fault here... I'm just sticking to the current conversation, and staying on topic...

He set you up... But, welcome aboard anyway. Brace yourself...

Because he's Sadistic - and he knows what we do to Newbs. You work for him - but I think he might hate you. I'm just sayin'... He likes to push the fat pig into the pond filled with the Piranhas. That's just how he is... 🤪

Helicoils sucks and are a temporary repair - fix it THAT time. If you want to fix it permanently, then use Time-Sert. Explain Drew. Drew - that owns this site - is your boss?! Who the fuk let Drew into a position where he's bossing people around?... FML, Biden is the President, and Drew is bossing fuckers around. What are we in for, here?... EDIT - This by NO MEANS correlates Drew with that FukWad Biden, in any way, shape or form...

Breasts are amazing... Love them...

We're a collective group of Blind Monkeys, brother - but we still find a banana once in awhile... We'll get it right - after awhile...

Check if it's Colt cut or Glock cut, brother - before you buy anything else... I'm just sayin'...

It wasn't far off - it was DEEP HIDDEN, when I found it. Still smells like balls, no matter how many times I clean it... 🤪

I beg to differ, but if you say so, then it must be... I remember it WAY differently... Started with you asking, "What are you carrying?..." Well, I've got a Springfield Armory XD-45 LE model, with the thumb safety. 13-rd mag, one in the pipe, and I've got two spare mags with +2 extensions, so I've got 44 rounds of .45ACP on me - and one spare loose round in my pocket, because it would be SACRILEGE to not have 45 rounds of .45ACP on me... And then Rob says, "Oh YEAH!..." ...and just starts PEELING guns off his body. Left and right. "I've got this one here, and I've got this one here, and I've got this one THERE, and..." I think he pulled one out of his prison-wallet. DEEP HIDDEN. It was pretty fucking EPIC for the first face-to-face with this guy... This was the BEGINNING of the 2012 shoot. Later that weekend, my Kimber Ultra RCP II was missing - and I had to SEARCH Rob to recover it...

Was that series shot suppressed, or unsuppressed? You went with the heavier buffer and spring from Slash - wise move - but you opened that gas block back up to wide-open. So... I'm watching your brass ejection pattern, for the most part, and it's ejecting about 2 o'clock-ish, most of the time, and the gas block is wide open. Cut the gas down - dial it back down. That BCG is still moving, and it should have slowed down, with the heavier buffer. But nothing really changed, with the now wide-open gas block. Only change one thing at a time, when you're trying to diagnose these things. Compounding the problem - we're trying to do this over the internet, just with pics, or descriptions, or videos... Not a complaint or a gripe - just trying to let you know that it ain't easy, figuring this stuff out. Answer what I asked at my opening - just so I have the answers to what I was asking, and can move forward with what I presume. My assessment so far - heavier buffer should have slowed it down, but opening the gas sped it back up. We're at the same scenario as before, at least looking at the vids - but I still don't know if you're still shooting suppressed, like that last vid. If all those stars align - close the gas down, in steps, until this thing is functioning right. The vids are GREAT, by the way... I just need to know the details of what is being shot, IN those vids. This is an awesome thread to read, right here - and what we really need, when trying to diagnose gun issues over the internet:

Have you measured that to verify? Things happen... That gas port size sounds right, based on the barrel specs you listed.

Lancer L7AWM mags are really the best ones to run in these guns, but they're almost twice the price of the MagPuls, in most cases. You can use those, too, perfectly fine, if you can't find the MagPuls anywhere...

Nope, still not doing it...

I missed this one, sorry, brother! YES! Any ACOG QD mount will work... The ones from American Defense (ADM) are very, very nice - and I love some ADM mounts, for my red-dots and red-dot magnifiers. The ones from LaRue are REALLY nice, as well - and the ADMs run a little bit less $$$... The 5x from PA will come with their thumbscrew mount and a riser - already. It's set,right out of the box, to mount right up to any AR.

OP, this is the barrel to look for - when it's back in stock. Don't mean to preach or anything, but you picked a bad time to build one, I'm just sayin'... https://criterionbarrels.com/products/large-frame-ar/dpms-pattern-308-hybrid-barrel-rifle-gas-stainless/?v=00dc5da36527

For the working barrel configuration from one specific manufacturer, here's what works, unsuppressed. 16" barrel, rifle gas, medium-heavy contour, 0.936" gas block journal size, 0.105" gas port diameter.

Nope, no way. I'm not using the FOURTH trigger for Doc in another gun build. I'll pick up a couple of them this time, and another scope mount, and a red dot mount, and a mount for an ACOG... I've got a growing list of their stuff that I need...

More Baby-Steps... Getting closer... That Wilson Combat 10" rail is gonna work perfectly on the 16" barrel, and that Wilson Intermediate Length gas system. It just flows... If I add a trigger and a stock, it's shoot-able - into a hill, with no sights on it. But ready to fire. It's getting closer, brothers. Baby Steps...
