This may or may not help, but it's worth sending a dozen magazines downrange and checking results.

My run, with carbine thrown in at the end.

Fixed that one for ya, brother...

Getting closer - these beasts are what I will go with most of the time. Sierra GameKing 90gr BTHP and RL-7. I cannot wait to put one of these in a coyote. Dies and barrel should be in next week.

Your wish is my command - Shooter Ready?!

Here's Larry's pistol run:

Damn, these vids are large files - still downloading, just to turn around and upload the things!

I'll upload those right now, brother - where's the vid of you, man?!

PRI. Precision Reflex, Delta series.

Exactly. That front sight post should be the first thing in your focus, on target, as you're going out, flat. Front sight, front sight, front sight. On target as soon as the front sight is in your view - you'll be flat, and have front/rear sight alignment by the time you're all the way out. BANG. Back in at your chest, right in your face- that's your workspace. All reloads, clearing of/tending to malfunctions, and any time NOT on target happens in your workspace. We need a Mike Pistol Vid - he's the ArcFuckingMaster.

This is what we were talking about and doing at the end of the shoot, brother.

Gone. Sold out. 375 rifles at $3,200 each. Rifle numbers 1~125 were sold at Christmas time. This was 126~500, with Mark LaRue keeping #500 as his own. That's $1,200,000 for those 375 rifles...

Sweet!!! I knew it wouldn't take long, from me to you, but I didn't think it would be the next day!

Brownell's has the KAOS for the 12" launcher in stock right now - just cut it.

I did a sponge-camo job on the Savage FV-SR. Came out great. More details in this thread:

Every other manufacturer out there just uses the shorter AR15 gas systems on the Big ARs, and says "It'll be good enough," rather than buy proprietary gas tubes from Armalite, or violate Armalite's patent on it all.

In order for Armalite to give the bolt carrier group the proper amount of gas, for the proper amount of time, and generate the proper amount of force in order to cycle the weapon, they had two choices: 1. Move the gas port in the barrel, which will affect dwell time, 2. Use a longer gas tube and keep the gas port in the barrel in the same place, with the properly developed dwell time. Eugene Stoner did the math on it all, and developed this. I think this is the why on this one. Actually, the AR-10 was developed first, and all this was "mathed out." I think the gas port location and gas tube length on the AR15 was changed, from the AR-10 design... That's gotta be it. There is no other explanation.

I really started thinking about this, and I think I have the answers. I'm pretty certain I know why the Armalite AR-10 gas tubes are longer. So, as I mentioned before, the carrier gas key will sit further back on the AR-10 than it will on any AR15. It's mounted the exact same distance back from the front of the carrier face, but the AR-10 bolt is larger, thus the gas key is further back when the bolt is closed, in the firing position. As it turns out, it's about 3/16" further back. 308AR BCG on the left, AR15 BCG on the right. Both bolts are pushed into the carrier, in the position they would be in when a round is fired.

With the purchase of 4, you're the reason they're out of stock... Shiit, that wasn't you, it was COBrien...

Lesson 65b. You snooze, you lose.

Here's the news writeup from Military.com Deadly Explosion at Army Ammunition Plant in Missouri Military.com | 11 Apr 2017 | by Brendan McGarry An explosion rocked an Army ammunition plant on Tuesday in Missouri, leaving one person dead and four others injured, the service said. The incident occurred around 1 p.m. local time at a "mixing building" at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in Independence, Missouri, according to Justine Barati, director of public and congressional affairs for Joint Munitions Command. "The four injured employees were evaluated on scene and refused further treating," Barati said in an email. "The explosion was in a primer mixing cell. The investigation is currently ongoing" to determine what caused the incident, she said. The facility is owned by the service but operated by Orbital-ATK and produces more than 1 billion rounds of small-caliber ammunition each year. About 30 government employees work at the plant, including 29 civilians and one soldier, according to the email. The slain worker and the others who were injured were all employed by the company, Barati said in a brief telephone interview with Military.com. A spokesman for Orbital-ATK didn't immediately respond to a request for comment but the company later posted a statement online. "We confirm there was an explosion today at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant that resulted in a fatality of one of our team members," it states. "Investigation is underway. Our hearts and thoughts go out to the family of our fallen colleague." Officials with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, or ATF, have secured the scene and determined the area to be safe, but the plant has been closed for the rest of the day, Barati said. Employees should call their building hotline number before returning to work on Wednesday, she said. A press conference was scheduled for later in the day. Orbital-ATK on Monday received a nearly $100 million contract from the Army to produce 5.56mm and 7.62mm ammo for the service. The company and the Army have upgraded the facility in recent years to enhanced product quality, performance and efficiency, according to a recent press release. Since 2000, ATK has produced more than 17 billion rounds of small-caliber ammunition at Lake City to support U.S. and allied warfighters around the globe. The sprawling facility is housed on nearly 4,000 acres and includes 408 buildings, 43 magazines, nine warehouses and storage capacity of 707,000 square feet, according to the Army.

SHIIT!

Nope, not for a 37mm launcher It's only a DD and requires a stamp if it's 40mm. 37mm launchers can't shoot all the military M79 and M203 ammo, because that ammo is all 40mm. Nothing at all required (on a federal level) for a 37mm launcher.
