Well then, what .gov contracts do they have, and what were they "tasked to fix" for the .gov? This is the first that I've heard of this, and I'd like to know...

Here's a lapdance for @Robocop1051 on his birthday, I love this guy. I might mean that in a gay-way... I'm unsure right now...

Don't worry about that - he's pretty comfortable. "Snuggly" is a great description. First-hand account. Don't feed him Tequila.

I poke at him, but it's all love. In all honesty, there are a very, very few select people here that I've met in person - that I'd go to jail for. Rob is definitely one of them, and he's in a small crowd. He's more my brother, than my own brother is... I mean that.

He needed that, brother Lone Wolf... by the way, if you ever have to bunk with him, you better put one of these under your covers - you know, just in case... I saved this one - from Zack - in Vegas. I found it in MY bed, Zack put it there. I guess it was in all the beds, that were not ROB'S bed... I saved this one and laminated it, so I can use it later...

His B-Day is actually the 14th, so you squeaked that one in under the wire, by time-of-post... Happy Birthday, @Robocop1051, you corksucker... I present you with this...

Cool - but overpriced for what you're getting. Many companies do what they do - but JP caters to the RaceGun Crowd, so they charge premiums, based on what people are willing to pay. RaceGun Parts - $$$. Ever seen the difference between a RaceGun bolt, and a regular bolt? Ever seen what the RaceGun Crowd will pay for a part that says "it's better"?... Lots of companies make their bolts from the same materials, same HPT and MPI tests... the bolt is not a RaceGun part - but JP make it so, and charges a premium for it. Enjoy it.

No nightly hooker or a small jet, man? Come on,.. you gotta sell those tools for what they're really worth...

Yes, ever so slightly. It's enough to make a difference, though. . Since you have one, slam it in and try it, man. It'll change your ejection pattern - but it will be cool to hear how much, from a firsthand prospective.

I feel your pain, and I have all that frustration, too. Tools and boxes, and if I could sell them for what I've paid for them, I could buy 5 new houses with land, maybe a small jet, rent nightly hookers... I get it. Quality tools are worth the money, if your job is making money with those tools.

Nah, no dumbass in it, at all - but you'da found it out the first time you leaned into the bipod.

^^^ Alot of companies do that, with a cost that's not as much.

IMHO, if it gets out of the gun, every single time, it's no big deal. However, if you want to change that ejection pattern - that's buffer weight, just like you thought, or a heavier spring. Sprinco Red spring. Either one will do it. The spring is cheaper, brother. you also have adjustable gas - put another 1/2 turn in it and see what happens, go 3 turns instead of 2.5 - THAT is the easiest - it's free, since you already have that capability.

That is HILARIOUS!!! That is fucked up, right there...

I have an old clamshell setup for AR15s, and 10 years ago, I was searching for one for .308ARs. The biggest problem is that the receivers are so different, so it's tough to make an all-around clamshell that would fit them all. I switched over to Geissele Reaction Rods years ago, because of that. They're far superior, but cost $$$ unless you catch a Geissele sale on them. Brownells make a very similar product, and it's much cheaper in price.

This is pretty cool, and I didn't know it - I guess the official name of the wood is Amboyna Burl. I just picked that block of wood because it looked badass - well, actually Greg picked it for me... I click over to Joe's main page, and he's got info on his "Rare and Unique" woods, and the damn Amboyna Burl is the third one down his list. It didn't cost me this much a decade ago, but I still think it was around (or a little over) $150. Pretty damn cool. https://classicsingleaction.com/rare-woods

That's one hell of a great looking build, man! That bipod is on there backwards, though - as soon as you try to load that bipod, the legs will fold on you. Flip that sucker around.

But, her ass will be phenomenal when I wear it as a hat.

Holy Shiit, my Kimber Desert Warrior is famous! @DNP pointed this out to me tonight. Joe Perkins made my custom grips, and I never knew it's on his website. That's badass. I had these made in 2011 or 2012 - whenever the second trip out here was, that I met up with @edgecrusher - on his second trip out that we linked up on, I went to Tombstone with him and fam, and Big Mike, for a Cowboy Action Shoot. That's when Greg peer-pressured the fuk outta me to get this piece of wood from Joe Perkins, and make it into grips for this gun... That's the pic from his website - it's right here, just scroll down to number 169 in this gallery... https://classicsingleaction.com/gallery?start=40 Awesome find, Dirk!!!

Now THAT is something that I need. Well done, RA, you've won the thread so far, man. Well fuckin' done.

Effie Sue Washington, on the media... Her video on Trayvon was pretty epic, but YT yanked it...

He has a DPMS G2 (not the DPMS LR-308 original platform), and I'm betting that the K he has in his serial number isn't at the very end.

Here's mine, to add to the discussion - I bought this DPMS LR-308 stripped lower in Jan or Feb of 2010.

Here's a great example - they blurred out the serial, but left the K to prove it's a stripped lower:

Since Remington killed off DPMS, all the historical links from DPMS are now gone. If they weren't, I'd give you a direct link to the DPMS FAQ, that specifically states that information, about the K and the end of the serial number.
