  1. Really looks like it needs to go in another turn - and it looks like it's already got a little cutout for the retainer - and that's only because it's got that fancy little lip on the lower third of it. You'll need to cut that notch a little bigger to get it another turn - but you can try it at home, now. Remove the buffer retainer and it's spring, then screw that extension in another turn - your goal is to see if the side and upper sections protrude PAST the forward edge of the lower receiver (Can't stick out past the "ears" on the lower...). I swear, it's almost like they're manufacturing this shiit just to test us. It's about turning stupid...
  2. I've had three of them now, completely reliable. They all start with "Springfield..."
  3. Strange update to this one - looks like tips were called in to the FBI two different times, prior to this incident happening. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/05/29/fbi-received-tips-about-oklahoma-city-restaurant-shooter-s-youtube-videos.html
  4. Armalite AR-10 Carbine buffer is an H3-weighted buffer at 5.4 oz. Carbine buffer = 3.0 oz Carbine H buffer = 3.6 oz Carbine H2 buffer = 4.6 oz Carbine H3 buffer = 5.4 oz. Or, very, very close. I've seen some that are 0.10 oz in either direction, from those weights. What you have in yours is more like the H buffer.
  5. Never thought about that. I always keep a few pounds of it for 30 Carbine.
  6. You can do that if you want, but it's just going to give you practice in taking buffers apart - the same guts are in both. (photo from ARF)
  7. Read down into this thread right here:

    Daaaaaaaaamn...
  9. ^^^ Page 5 in that thread. 16" rifle gas 5.56 Dissipator = 0.110"...
  10. I'll have two that I'll be painting at the same time, now. Gonna be pretty cool. I'l knock them out in the next week or so. Larry's truck gun is pretty damn nice!
  11. Man, I haven't seen her for a couple years now - more than that, Jake was still in the house then. Damn... I hope she can come out to the Fall Shoot. Can't wait to see these pistolas, brother!
  12. Only powders I've used for BLK so far is 1680 and H110, under 150gr Hornady FMJ BTs. Both of those work very well.
  13. I've been nothing but impressed with the Faxon 5R Match barrels so far. Two of them in Grendel, and they just flat work.

    Nice!!! Here's the easy way to do your own beer batter, fellas, and it turns out pretty tasty: 2 Tablespoons granulated garlic 2 Tablespoons Paprika 2 Teaspons salt (I've been cooking alot lately with pink Himalayan salt) 2 Teaspoons ground black pepper 1 Cup of flour 2 Eggs 1 beer of choice I whip the eggs first, then pour the beer in. All 4 seasonings go in, mix it all up. Flour goes in last, blend it in well. Makes one hell of a beer batter, and it'll do quite a bit of fish. I think I did 40 oz of Cod today, and still had alot of batter left over. It's killer...
  15. Damn good work, on all of them. Fantastic.

    Alright, I usually only cook on weekends, batches. Again, this ain't grilling, but... Homemade beer batter on some Cod. It's still cooling...

  19. What a crazy deal on that barrel!!!
  20. That beast is running like a champ! It's quite impressive... suppressed .338 Lapua Magnum semi auto...
  21. Duluth Trading Company. They make a couple "shorts" version of their Ultimate Firehose Workpants ( I got the Duluth-Flex version). I've got a pair of the pants, and they're great. Liked them so much that I have a pair of the shorts on the way. More of the pants in the future, too. Shorts are listed on the Pants page: https://www.duluthtrading.com/store/mens/mens-pants/mens-pants.aspx
  22. He shouldn't have had them in California, then. They were federally legal, for when he got them - had to have been in another state. He wouldn't have gotten approved, as a Cali resident,the BATFE knows better. So, the real question is, concerning the suppressors - why did he move them into Cali? Did he not know that they're not legal there?

    That thing you have is the devil. 8" pistol with a shockwave blade on it. Shooting it is like some fucker hitting you in the shoulder with a machete...
  24. That thing is a TRUE dissipator, right? That gas port should be about 0.110"...
  25. You can modify a rifle buffer, EASY. It's 1/2" internal diameter, so you only need a piece of 1/2" OD PVC pipe, to remove a weight, and replace it with a piece of PVC of the same length. I'm telling you right now, that if that is the case - and you need to lighten that buffer to get it to function... You need to drill up your gas port. The gas port is too small. Been down this road too many times, and know it too well. Before you do anything to that gun, I'd pull that gas block and measure out the gas port diameter - and post that number in here. I'm just sayin'... don't exactly know what I'm doin' here, but I'd be drilling that gas port up if it was mine...
