  1. Check both those receiver extensions, too. Make sure they don't need "modded" to screw in another turn... @bfoosh006, try to see if this in an ongoing issue at PSA - let them know about it. Thay can notch their own receiver extensions, in order to fully seat them like they should be, during assembly. This will cut out troubleshooting on message boards, and customer-fixes. And BCGs crashing into lowers.
  2. 98Z5V

    Scratched my itch.

    You guys have issues.
  3. Told ya - he was hungry!...
  4. OP, you can run the kit you listed in your first post, with the PRS Gen 3. You don't need extra parts, or a rifle recoil system. If you want a rifle recoil system, make sure you verify the 5.200" buffer length, though. A 5.900" long AR15 rifle buffer ain't gonna work on a .308AR. No matter which system you run, though - I'd buy a genuine Armalite EA1095 spring for it. That's their AR-10 spring, and it works on both rifle and carbine recoil systems (not in DPMS-based recoil systems, though).
  5. The PRS Gen 3 is a different animal. It works on any rifle or carbine receiver extension. This kit contents he listed above will be fine, if they're all in spec. That's very similar to the Armalite AR-10 Carbine recoil system, right there. It's fine, if it's in spec. If it's not, we can fix him. https://www.magpul.com/products/prs-gen3-precision-adjustable-stock
  6. Found a video of it. That poor little fox looked like he was volunteering for the Fulton Recovery System...
  7. 3.250" long buffer, right? That extension is correct for an AR15-sized H3 buffer.
  8. Bad Day. You're a fox, and you're hungry. You FINALLY find and catch a rabbit... ...and then THIS happens to you...
  9. ^^^ That stuff that I posed up above is only a start, and you still need to measure the internal depth of the receiver extension, even if you file and give it another turn. Getting it installed correctly is the first step, and that's what that is above. AR15 Carbine Receiver extension (and the DPMS-based 308 extension) should have an internal depth of 7.000". Armalite AR-10 (based) Carbine Receiver Extension should have an internal depth of 7 5/8". If it's still over that, it's time to stack quarters, or find a tube that's in-spec.
  10. ^^^ If it is, Wide-Open that thing for any future testing, until there's solid function...
  11. I love two slings. V-TAC Mk1 slings, and Beachin' slings. I don't know how many V-TAC Mk1s I have, but I'd bet it's 10. I don't know how many Beachin' slings I have - but I need to rotate them out and get the buckle added, and it'll take some time, and be expensive... Jacob, you have a standard quote to add the adjusting buckle to one of your existing slings?
  12. I'm about to show you guys how easy this really is. First question really posed: Right off the bat, the very two posts he got were for the LaRue MBT2S. It's $99 bucks right now, and you'll wait to get it. If you researched that trigger at all here, you'd find this: https://forum.308ar.com/search/?q="larue trigger"&sortby=relevancy If you even took the step to search the LaRue trigger on the vast, vast www., you'd go right to LaRue's website, and you'd be able to read ALL the reviews... https://www.larue.com/products/larue-tactical-mbt-2s-trigger/ Okay, got it. First major, MAJOR hurdle is down. Damn near killed me to get through that, it was so hard. Next question that was posed was this: That's gonna be a tough one, search-wise. Here's what I found: https://forum.308ar.com/search/?q="Faxon barrel"&sortby=relevancy I search the www. for the term "Faxon barrel accuracy" and this is what I got back: https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=3p4DW8akHaSWjQOt0JHADA&q=Faxon+barrel+accuracy&oq=Faxon+barrel+accuracy&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0j0i22i30k1l6.1632.6622.0.7077.22.20.0.0.0.0.188.1835.12j6.18.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..4.18.1822.0..0i131k1j0i10k1.0.bV0pU3s2w38 Last question posed was this one: This is really the only VALID question - without extreme laziness - and the answer is simple, with common familiarity in this platform. YOU ALWAYS CHECK HEADSPACE ON A LARGE-FRAME AR BUILD. That's so important, that it's a pinned topic in the section "308 AR - What You Need To Know" So, bottom line here - very simple search attempts would have turn up this very basic information. Zero attempt was made, to discover the answers to these very basic questions, and instead, a huge amount of bullshiit was posted about attitude. Most of which came from the guy that never attempted to even help himself, first. Now, with all that said, who's the a$shole here?...
  13. He needs to be - I know it was called out, but I don't think anything official was launched. I hope it goes official, and I hope this kills his Netflix deal... He and the Wookie deserve exactly what Comey got - fired. What they really deserve was what McCabe got - fired, and pension lost.
  14. That's the biggest issue - BIGGEST. Parents that can't, don't know how, or don't WANT TO ... PARENT.
  15. Small schools are definitely the key, and large schools just plain suck. Don't ever give up fighting for your son, brother. Ever. They might tell you some bullshiit - but when they see you're not having it, and you will see this through to the end - they change their tune, usually... They're used to dealing with candy-ass pushover parents, that don't really give a shiit...
  16. Don't say that just yet - if you've never had one with some Severe AD/HD. I said the same thing - initially. My kid's brain works way faster than his body. Like fucking Rain Man. If he doesn't have the right med (in the right dosage), he can't even function. I'm serious.
  17. Get ready for NETFLIX to turn to garbage... I'm just sayin'... http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2018/05/21/obamas-sign-multi-year-netflix-deal-to-produce-shows-and-films.html
  18. Well said.
  19. Exactly what happened in Parkland. Exactly... Funding brought that on, and the political motivation "for more funding" by under-reporting incidents...
  20. My pleasure, by far - if you have a rifle you wanted painted dirt colors, I have an idea - bring the pieces with you, and I'll knock that thing out quick. I have one I want to paint up, and I can paint two at once and beat both of them up. I've got an idea... I need to paint the .338 Fed Pig Puncher... might as well do two rifles... Too damn hot in the summer here to reload, so I might as well paint shiit all summer long...
  21. First, this place is FAR from "anti-social." You stick around awhile, and you'll find that out. There's a distinct backlash that WILL happen, anytime an A$shole shows up, and immediately acts like - what they are. The people here owe NOBODY... anything... When someone "demands" information - they're usually the same type of person that demanded it somewhere else - "if you KNOW about this xxx topic that I'm asking, then you HAVE to give me the information... " This is all created, maintained, and operated for the love of the platform, in a world that otherwise hasn't been able to figure it out like this group has. This question, specifically, that was asked - that trigger isn't from an SU16. That trigger isn't from a bullpup. That trigger isn't a Fostech, or any other binary trigger. It's just a standard mil-spec shiitty trigger. I hope you understand the "other side of the fence" a little better now.
  22. You're gonna shoot with him tomorrow? Is that what you said?...
  23. I tend to disagree with this one, and I'll give a great example. Unnamed High School in southeastern AZ. LOTS of military kids in this scool, with a large .mil installation in the city (You guys can figure this out). The have a security staff of 7 or 8 real security guards, IN the school, before-through-after every school day. There's little mini-gang shiit going on, kids (drug dealers) hiding "weed-drops" - and other shiit - under the dumpsters out back at set times, threats of student-on-student violence, and staff that doesn't give a shiit. Well, the security staff gave a shiit - I did all the work on the head of security's personal motorcycles, and knew him well. Didn't envy his job... Believe me. I was a parent that was involved. My kids had issues, and I was in that office, stating, "GO get the Principal. NOW." The assistant principal came out, introduced, and I cut him off - "WHO are you and WHAT is your job here?..." I'm the Assistant...." "STOP. RIGHT THERE." I looked at the staff, and said, "WHO did I just tell you to get? An Assistant-Anything?" "Well, sir, the Prinicipal is in a meeting..." "Yeah, with WHO?" "Sir, it's an interview for a substitute teacher position..." I lost my SHIIT. I, as calmly as possible, let them know that "what I was GOING TO discuss was alot more important than a damn job interview, and they better get that Principal out here NOW..." SHAZAM! Principal appears. We go into the office, and I begin. My 10th grade kid was threatened by a 9th grade drug dealer, and stated that "there were people out to get my son, anytime, during the school day..." Nope, not gonna happen. WITH a security staff of 7or 8 people, I wouldn't think ANYBODY would be in danger DURING THE SCHOOL DAY... So, I had a proposal for the Principal - you get me the contact information of that kid's mom and dad. Like, NOW. "No, Sir, we can't give that out" Yeah? Bullshiit you can't - better give up the information, and I want a meeting with that kid's parents, AND YOU. "Sir, that's not going to be possible - we can't give out personal information..." Alright, PrincipaL, here's my backup plan, and you better listen. THAT 9TH GRADE DRUG DEALER, GANG-BANGER KID... is NOW my son's protector. RIGHT NOW. If ANYTHING happens to my kid, IN this school, or afterwards - I will find out. ANYTHING. That 9th grade punkass kid better make sure nothing happens with my son, and you're only job is to either deliver that message to the kid, or deliver it to his parents... When the Principal refused to do ANYTHING... I came to the conclusion that the school was a cesspool, anybody that wanted to be a part of the solution, instead of being part of the problem, was going to go nowhere. I withdrew him from there RIGHT THEN. Immediately. "Gather his records and give me forms. He won't be back here again." He was enrolled in a smaller charter school the next morning. Now, tell me again how the public school system isn't a part of this?...
  24. Had a MKA-1919 demo gun out in the dirt a couple weekends ago. Ate everything we fed it, and shoots incredibly smooth.
