They manufacture BCGs for ALOT of OEM companies.

We have people here that can fix that. For good. I'm just sayin'...

Justin Beiber is volts... The Rock is the AMPS...

It ain't easy being one of your friends, either, fucker... Nothing but love, brother, nothing but love...

Toolcraft is 110% pure quality, so whichever one you get from them, you won't have an issue. If you ever DO have an issue down the road, they have a lifetime, no-bullshiit warranty on it.

Hardly ANY 308 manufacturer screws up the .308AR rifle recoil system, but I have seen one. It was recent, too, and I commented on that. The .308AR rifle recoil system is a hard thing to jack up - so it remains pretty consistent, without much fanfare or trouble. If you purchase a rifle recoil system FROM Armalite, FOR the AR-10, you will never have problems from your recoil system, at all. I have only ONE .308AR with a rifle recoil system, and the parts are all Fulton Armory (verified DPMS), and it's flawless - because that doesn't get screwed up often, and also because Fulton Armory will never screw it up - reputable parts from reputable vendors.

Holy CRAP!!!! I've never seen anything like that... I can use whatever caliber necessary here (AZ), except no FMJ rounds, and I can't use ANY lights... Hey, that says "handguns are legal..."

I've seen burned down ground wires before, brother - lemme tell you what happened... Guy starts having all kinds of electrical problems with an off-road vehicle... Blows out his Electric Power Steering. Replaced under warranty. Next, his regulator/rectifier blows out (converts AC to DC, and keeps it under 15.5VDC). Warranty. Then he blows out an ECM - the brain. Warranty. Then, all kinds of signal sensors start to go, Vehicle Speed Sensor, Gear Position Sensor, Throttle Position Sensor (which is a combined MAP sensor)... All kinds of shiit. Warranty. THEN, he fries another Electric Power Steering unit up... At this point, I'm tired of it, and I tell the manufacturer that I need a complete vehicle wiring harness. My justification was: It's the only thing that makes sense here. Something happened somewhere, and he burned down a ground. That AMP power has to return to the battery via another ground now. Volts consumed by load, AMPS return to battery, never consumed, always there - that's a charging system. Common charging system stuff. More AMPS returning on another path, because that's what they do... And they burn down THAT ground, then another, then another... I want a wiring harness, or I want paid under warranty to take his whole wiring harness apart and find the burned-down grounds... I get manufacturer approval for a complete wiring harness replacement, all under warranty - and by now, the guy's warranty has expired. By they did it anyway. Call the guy and tell him the news. Know what he tells me?!!? "Yeah man, right after I got it, my battery bracket broke, and my battery hit the bottom of my seat frame and everything shut off out in the desert - I had to have a buddy tow me home..." No fucking shiit... He KNEW when it happened, and I had to CSI that fucking rig for a year to get it right. If only he'd told me... right from the get-go... These things aren't like houses, brother - they're like cars. But not. Cars have alternators. You start a car, you can unhook the battery, take it out, and the car runs, until you shut it off - the alternator provides all the power, and the battery is only there to start it. This is more like powersports shiit and motorcycles. The battery is there to start it, and run it. You unhook the battery, and it dies, right away. The charging system is AC converted to DC, via the reg/rect, and all the charging system does is keep the battery up. You burn down something in the charging system, and you'll hunt that shiit forever, or catch on fire. Hot wires that short to ground before the load - just pop fuses. That's an easy diag, and that's all they do. What fuse popped, what does it handle, and where are the hot wires to those components? - let's look at them. That a given, every single time. In this camper, something happened to smoke a ground circuit, and the generator keeps making power, so everything works - on another ground circuit. Until it smoked another one. Then another one. Before too long, there was only one ground circuit handling everything, before it let the smoke out... Volts are one thing. Don't fuk with the Amps...

I have your answer then, and it's in the form of a 12.5" Grendel pistol. Well above the .22-cal limit at 6.5mm, and easily accurate enough to hunt a coyote at 500 yards, when you consider a 5" vital zone and a 10" target (height of midsection, top to bottom). Easy to range with if you're using a mil scope, with an average coyote being 18" high at the shoulder, from the ground. Every 18" target is exactly one mil in the scope at 500 yards. If that coyote is 2 mils high at the shoulder when you spot him, he's 250 yards away. 4 mils high, 125 yards. Blam, done.

It's the .224 SUPER Valkyrie?... Should I edit this, later?...

I'm well aware, I have several BA barrels. One of them that I ordered actually arrived, marked as an Aero Precision barrel -- since it was an all Aero build, that was a bonus.

Way less dwell time, with that long gas tube. It's enough on the 22s and 24s... Good job, man.

Then 24", with Rifle +2" gas, brother!

My first .308 carbine recoil system was from AP. It had a receiver extension that was 7.100" internal depth, a 3.8oz shorty buffer, and a weird spring that looked more AR15 carbine spring than anything else. Once I prmarily tracked my weird functional issues to the issues in the recoil system, I bought my first Armalite system, and I haven't looked back since. I have 4 other guns that are built on the Aero M5 sets - that is top-quality stuff, right there.

On the 5.56 guns, they shoot alot of hand-chamber 80-gr projectiles. May be even higher in weight now, with the 90-gr projos all over from .224 Valk. In the large-frames, it's probably 6.5mm projos, or even 6mm by now...

That $650 PSA will feel like it's "over-gassed," and you will end up buying an adjustable gas block for it, which kills your PSA warranty-forever, according to reports from them. It's not "over-gassed," it's under-recoiled, and they compensate for that in other areas. The gas tube is too short, and the gas port in the barrel is too small. So, you'll end up with the Armalite AR-10 Carbine Recoil System for it anyway, which is the cheapest way to do that setup. You'll also need the Armalite AR-10 Carbine gas tube for it, to fix the use of an AR15 Midlength gas tube, where they gas port location is drilled. You also need to include gunsmith fees to enlarge your gas port from around 0.070" that it ships with, to somewhere between 0.080"~0.085" - add that up onto the $650, and tell me how much that rifle will cost... I'm not trying to insult you, dissuade you, or anything else. I'm giving you reality. You are building this rifle, and you probably want it to run correctly, right? That's what is being offered. It might not meet your $800 budget needs, but it's not that far over it. So, you thought your budget was gonna be $800 - and it doesn't meet that. Are you going to be better off not making that budget by a few bucks? Or by meeting that budget, saving a few bucks, having a gun that doesn't run, then spending more money to replace the wrong parts that were used in the first place? Only you can answer that one...

I wouldn't run that one, either. Since you're on a new build, and this is a blank slate, and you're looking at something to run a collapsible stock on - you want to target a buffer weight that's around 5.4oz. My preference for simplicity is the Armalite AR-10 Carbine Recoil System, because it meets all the criteria, and they are the only manufacturer making it - so it doesn't get messed up by aftermarket companies, that just do what they want anyway. Next up is the DPMS-based recoil system, with the short buffer. For that, a real AR15 mil-spec receiver extension from a reputable manufacturer, make your own buffer or buy the KAK 5.3oz buffer, and use the Sprinco Orange spring. That combo just works. The recoil system is the heart of your rifle. It's not the place to try to shave a few bucks off the build. If your recoil system is junk, or made of unknown parts, we WILL be diagnosing this in the future. I guarantee it. Read these, when you get the time - the info is in there:

In the situation he just described above, it is the perfect example for what he just stated. Perfect.

True, and why most Sheriff's have giant balls. In a county, there is no higher law authority than the Sheriff. It's not often that you'll see it, but state and federal agencies better listen to the County Sheriff when they're in his county. He can shut that whole shenanigan right down, right when he decides to do so.

We all have a little bit of lesbian in us, you know that. It's okay to embrace it when you use that mentality, brother...

^^^ That right there is the key to the whole thing.

The Texas Rangers did, right away.

Yeah, SOOOO CLOSE, and got that ass-whoopin'... "Almost" only causes pain, brother... That's like somebody sayin' "I ALMOST kicked Mike Tyson's ass this one time..."
