  1. Exactly. If they leave the company alone to do what it does best - then that's a win. If they fuk with it, it's gonna be on a downward spiral...
  2. No pressure signs, at all. I saw pressure signs after that, though, going up in charge weight, before I hit the next accuracy node. I stopped there for 2 reasons - wasn't gonna make the next node, and stay safe, AND I hit my target of 2750 or higher. It's one hell of a great load, but it took time to sort it all out and get there.
  3. Tubb Carrier Weight System, with the tungsten insert. Not made anymore, though. We have a couple write-ups here about it. It was a great system.
  4. I'm running a 5.4 oz buffer with a 4oz weight added to the carrier - same principle. Soft shooting. Caliber is .308 Winchester.
  5. I like your strong throwing-hand, brother. How far away is that target guy from you. I'm so fukd from the truck theft on targets, that I need more. I thought I was good previously,with 4 big IPSC steels- and i always was, in the past. This year, I thought I'd be a baller, and move up 4 more, to 8 total. truck theives stopped me from doing that. At this point, I need 4 more, just to break even again, and I'll worry about more in the future, whenever that happens... Now... Target dude still have the deal on those? I'm in dire need of 4, and that's the minimum, considering my times...
  6. That's what you need, man. He's correct ^^^ - Calling them on the phone is quite successful, most of the time.
  7. I could listen to Johnny Cash all day and night - especially if Douggie Swanson was signing it, nothing more than his guitar, in my garage. Where you, Douggie? Prove me wrong, brother.
  8. Some amazing Kid Rock. Not joking. I know I've posted this one before. That doesn't mean it's any less awesome...
  9. I love this quote from you. It just echoes me, entirely.
  10. That was the "Friends And Family" Deal, right? Buy the .338 LM full gun, get the .500 Blackout upper with it. Cheap, too, Know Rob, and you were in on the FF Deal ("know Rob, like you'd blow Rob" - THAT close...). One complete gun, upper bonus, deal to buy a second lower (because real men have TWO guns, not 1.5 guns)... I know this was the real deal that was talked about, too... I think I already blew Rob. Where's my guns...
  11. Sleep is for the weak. I rest, momentarily throughout the day - for a few seconds at a time - so I can monitor everything around me 24/7. You can sleep when you're dead, brother.
  12. That was probably a rifle gas length system on that barrel, too, that you got that information from. Definitely the port size for a rifle-gas 20". Not a midlength gas system 18" barrel, like you have. These little details make a HUGE difference. So many people just blow that off, so commonly. Just think it's nothing. It means everything. Details really do matter, and ALL the details, too. Not just some of them. Your gun either runs, or it doesn't. We help you make it run - or we fail. Details... Garbage in, garbage out, just like the smartest computer. We're not that "smartest computer" - we need your real no-shiit gun details and measurements, here. If we don't get those real no-shiit numbers that we ask for... then we're no better than "garbage in-garbage out"... I hope everyone understands that aspect of it.
  13. Website is still up - but are those even viable now? Can you order them and get them, or is that website old and no longer functional - though it's still up? Have you contacted them? That's old-skool shiit, right there. Call them on the phone. Like, dialing a real phone, and calling people. 316-393-4434
  14. Yeah, that's inside my quoted article - that doesn't mean I'm the dumbass that doesn't know "IP Assets" - just for the record...
  15. Please don't tell me that you're fucking around with some Rock River LAR-8 gun here, or some of their parts, IN your gun. The numbers you're stating match up to a LAR-8 buffer, which would be a giant fukup on your part. List vendors for your parts, where you got 'em, what they advertised them as. Links (directly) to the parts you ordered will help. You have a LAR-8 rifle buffer, if it's truly 5.4" long. No Bueno for most of these platforms.
  16. Post pics of the parts that you have, put up a tape to verify. Rifle receiver extensions are 9 11/16" internal depth. They never vary, from that. .308AR, 5.56 guns, whatever. Rifle receiver extensions are all the same internal depth. Always.
  17. If you're really serious, and this is the length of your rifle buffer, then do me a favor - measure the INTERNAL DEPTH of your receiver extension. I don't care how long it is, from end to end, that people mistakenly measure. OAL doesn't mean shiit. INTERNAL DEPTH of the receiver extension is the only thing that matters- measure yours. It either needs to be 7.000" internal, or it's 7 5/8" internal. Everything else isn't even to any "spec" out there, and it's an anomoly. Rifle buffers for .308ARs are 5.200" long. Rifle buffers for AR15s are 5.900" long. You don't have either one of those, if yours is really 5.400" long. That's not right. Get ready to fire up your machine shop. I'm just sayin'.
  18. I have wood for you. Lemme get it dug out, and I'll have modern pics for you. Most of my pics of it are 10 years old, and hard to find here. Wood, iron sights, and classic lines is what exactly made this gun, and no other gun I have can do what this one does. You might like it. Welcome aboard, man.
  19. I still need to work on the ammo loads for that one. I'm ready, anytime... "Cool Season" is starting down here, and I'm all about load development for the next 8 months...4 Then it'll get hot again.
  20. I LOVE IT!!! Stay Spicy, brother...
  21. That's old-skool Matrix, right there. I have one of those sets that I made into a.338 Federal AR, and it's wicked bad. ^^^ Exactly right - you HAD to have their pivot and takedown pins, because they were longer than "normal." When I built my set for my .338 Fed from those, I got one extra pivot or takedown pin from YOU, brother, and someone else here sent me the OTHER pin that I needed - or I'da been fucked. Kudos to the brothers - without you guys, that gun wouldn't have happened. Extra pivot pin from one, extra takedown pin from the other... The .338 Fed 16" gun:
  22. Exactly. Report form from PSA - "No, your AAC Suppressor was functionally fine when it left our factory, and we tested it. You had a baffle strike, and that's not out problem. Your bill is $900 to fix this suppressor." AAC in the old days - back in the Kevin Brittingham Days - "they fixed stupid once - after that, it's gonna cost ya..." Baffle strike? YOU FUCKED UP, and didn't ratchet it down... no worrys.... We'll do this for you, fix stupid, this time. After that happens, there IS no "next time" - ever, as a suppressor user. I don't see PSA doing this. I see PSA making money, because they certainly don't make money on all their budget .308AR guns - those things are a money pit, that you need to fix, to get them to run right. @Robocop1051, I need to make you a bet. YOU VS. ME, brother. There's NO WAY you hate CMMG as much as I hate PSA. No fucking way, brother. CMMG truly sucks, but I'll use CMMG parts before I'd EVER use a POS PSA part. Nothing about PSA even works like it should, unless it's a 5.56 gun - and EVERYONE has THAT figured out. Bring the bet, brother.
  23. Selling it was probably your best move, man. What are you shooting now?
  24. BIG History. Had a three-way phonecall with him one time, and he didn't know that I was the 3-way. After he threatened to get his lawyers after me for what I said about his comments online... Wanted to "get his lawyers after me" for what I posted here, that didn't reflect what he was stating... HAAAA!!!! I'm SO IN on that!@!!! ...aaand DEN?! ...that's when I let him know that I was on the line. Too. Bring your lawyers, whiner. Didn't work out too pretty. Didn't phase me, not in the least, but I never had any of his lawyer-threats show up at my door. He's a BIG PSA FanBoi, super-proponent of them, Giant PSA Ass-Kisser, and all their shiit is perfect, out of the box. I disproved that theory, time and time again, right here. He's big - or his followers are big - on THR. One of his followers or fan-bois over there doesn't like me, and he's JUST like bfoosh. That guy doesn't come here for .308AR info, though - he just spouts his own nonsense over there. He gives really bad info, by the way. Just another troll and fan-boi bullshiit-reproducer. No facts learned on your own - just spout what you heard. Good luck, THR users,on accurate .308AR information. Hopefully, some of you show up here, when your problems aren't fixed over there. We welcome you. Build a couple of these things, in more than one caliber, and you'll quickly find out - what the facts are, on this system. Build a garbage-caliber weapon, shoot garbage ammo, and if it works... that doesn't make you a "professional" on this platform. Get out of your box, do your own shiit, build your own shiit, fix all your shiit-parts from manufacturers (and they're all over)... and then comment on this platform... @bfoosh006, you're more than welcome to drop in here and deliver your recollection of all that. I'd welcome it. Bring the pain. Brother.
  25. 5FDP has a whole list of songs that they pull off, routinely - but they're not normal. They're super-human.
