This entire announcement terrifies me - you're big enough already, man!!!

Trigger jerk, recoil anticipation and heeling were three things I always trained people for prior to pistol qual. By watching where their own impacts land, they could identify what they were doing wrong, recognize that, and make corrections for it. That was hardly ever taught at a PMI in the early and mid 90s, but I made sure they knew it. When they see their own mistakes, and remedy it - it's just like a self-licking ice cream cone...

My name is Tom-Ass. I am a survivor living in Arizona...

I'm pretty sure I enabled these new enablers - they don't know it yet. I got this barrel so cheap it's not even funny, and they didn't charge me any shipping...

This barrel is on the way to me. I'll probably have it in-hand before they make the product announcement, and before it's on the website.

Weirder things have happened, brother - run it and see what's up!

We missed the boat on this one, guys. Went right through, and we didn't notice. I pulled this info from Full30.com. https://forum.full30.com/t/illinois-sb-337-has-been-signed-into-law/9489 Here's the meat and potatoes on it: https://blog.k-var.com/news/illinois-pritzker-signs-firearm-registration-dealer-licensing-bill/#more-4857 January 17, 2019 by David Dolbee Within 48 hours of being sworn in, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed Senate Bill 337 into law. The bill was passed by the previous legislature, but Republican Governor Bruce Rauner refused to sign it into law. Senate President John Cullerton previously made the unprecedented move of placing a procedural hold on the bill in order to avoid the possibility of a veto under the previous Governor, Bruce Rauner, and then removed the hold to send the bill to a newly inaugurated governor. Cullerton’s political tricks means SB 337 will now establish a firearm registry and likely shut down local gun stores in Illinois with government red tape. Gov. J.B. Pritzker holds paperwork he signed Jan. 17, 2019, requiring gun stores to get state licenses. Senate Bill 337, as amended by Representative Kathleen Willis (D-77), will direct the state police to create an electronic transaction form for firearm transfers, which will amount to a registry. This solution in search of a problem will not only waste taxpayer funded resources, but it will also not improve public safety. Criminals, by definition, do not obey the law, and acquire the vast majority of their firearms illegally such as by theft, on the black market, or by straw purchase. A registry would not affect criminals as it could only include lawful transactions. The only purpose that firearm registries serve is to facilitate future confiscations of firearms from those who currently own them legally. In addition, SB 337 will create onerous gun dealer licensing within the state. While the purported intent of this law was to enhance “responsible business practices,” this law only proves that the intention is to close as many federally licensed firearm dealers (FFLs) as possible. The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) licenses and closely monitors all FFLs and strictly enforces any violation of federal law. SB 337 goes so far beyond federal law in its mandatory regulations and red tape imposed at the state level that they will almost assuredly force the closure of most firearm dealers and prevent prospective owners from opening new ones. This law seeks to create so many department divisions, anti-gun 5-member licensing boards, and licensing fees that dealers will be forced to close through oversight by anti-gun appointees or being priced out of business. Hopefully, Second Amendment defenders such as the NRA, Second Amendment Foundation and others will be able to block this through the courts. If not, it will set a dangerous precedent that will be mimicked by other states.

That came together very well - excellent picks on the parts.

Nice score!!!

Great news, but... PICS!!! Get a pic in here of it installed, and what you had to file - invaluable info for the next guy that has this issue. Good work, man.

Yep. Initially, they rated slide life at 5,000 rounds. Then it dropped to 2,500, then 1,250. If you're only shooting (peacetime qual requirements) 50 rounds a year, that's a 20+ year lifespan on the slide. So, that made it "okay." I always hated the M9.

BCA are good people! They have it - they know what's going on. On an 18" midlength gas .308 barrel with a .750 gas block diameter, you need 0.081" to run it, on the small side. I took one up to 0.085" to make it reliable with anything.

This is amazing, watching all this go down... Fucking BADASS!!!

The 30 cals are stackable to themselves, and the 50 cals are stackable to themselves. The 30s and 50s don't stack on each other, though. I just ordered 3 x 30 cal setups.

Wanted to update this one. I got hands-on this beast last week. HOOOOLEEEEESHEEEIIITT!!! They did an OUTSTANDING JOB on this receiver set, and it's truly ambi. Damn is it nice. It's standard DPMS-based parts, and it's a work of art, both visually and functionally. You cannot go wrong with this set of receivers. ADM also has some SERIOUS titanium hardware coming to market, that is just ingenious. Scope mounts, red dot mounts, a rail system, and other stuff. ADM is gonna be a game-changer in the light-weight build market as soon as they announce all this stuff. The scope mount will blow your mind...

NICE!!! Get that thing naked already and get the pics up!!!!

Gonna have to be the Allen Engineering AE30. I need to call them. Has to be a 30-cal can on this one, because all their other ones are 5.56 cans.

Check THIS out... Damn,this is badass. Many kudos to Tactical Toolbox.

He just needs pivot, takedown, and bolt catch...

Spring Shoot is mid-March. You know, break it in. Small group, so I'll provide all food - list your preferences, and you can have lobster ONE NIGHT. I'm just sayin'... (Don't try that "lobster" shiit for 3 nights. I ain't doin' it. You try it, and I'll feed you a roasted armadillo... )

Buy 10 of them at Cabela's... Done deal, brother...

Hold on - it's on Cabela's for $29.99... They're cheaper on this?... https://www.cabelas.com/product/MTM-CAN-AMMO-CRATE/2574825.uts

Sounds like he has familiarity - he better watch those teeth! Black N Decker Pecker Wrecker, right there!... Good luck tonight, Raven!...

You weren't fuqing with me - you replied to another guy to just Man UP with the gerbils. Like you had experience, or something, and just BRING IT OUT. Tell me about your Gerbils - cardboard tube, or did you just rough it, and stuff 'em in there?... Did they crawl, or claw? Most interested in you insertion method, as you've done the MAN UP thing on them before... You know, just curious what you went through. Spill it, let it out...
