  1. You could break an anvil in a sandpit, brother...
  2. I've had my GunTec for the longest time without fucking it up. I bought it back when that's about the only thing they made. Now, they make a shiit-ton of stuff. http://www.guntecusa.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=78 EDIT- for the record, I have a BUNCH of different armorer's wrenches. Some multi, some specific. My PRI barrel nut wrench is the most badass piece of kit in existence.
  3. Matt, run your buffer length dimensional numbers from Slash's tech data, and use that for cutting your buffer down... http://heavybuffers.com/reference.html
  4. I'm in with it. Let's launch 'em!!!
  5. There are several A-Series complete uppers on Armalite's website, in stock. THey don't even list the stripped A-Series upper on their website right now. The best bet might be to just buy the entire upper. https://armalite.com/product-category/uppers/complete-halves/ar-10-complete-upper-half-assemblies/ These are in stock, as of this posting: https://armalite.com/shop/ar-10a-carbine-upper-assembly/ https://armalite.com/shop/ar-10a-supersass-carbine-upper-assembly/ https://armalite.com/shop/ar-10-b-series-16-tactical-complete-upper-half-assembly/
  6. Larry, make sure you bring tickets with you to the Spring Shoot, brother!!!
  7. Definitely staying out there Friday night. Might have to come back Saturday night to the house, unless we straight kidnap Matt and keep him longer... I'm in.

    Open sights

    I take it you've seen this article? http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2011/06/foghorn/ask-foghorn-competition-iron-sights/ Also, check out Phoenix Precision (a manufacturer) and Fulton Armory (a vendor). Compass Lake Engineering, as well. They might have something that fills this need.
  9. Replied to - Thanks, man!!!
  10. I'm in, man - just let me know how to pay for them.
  11. Hell yes.
  12. Bet that thing would taste great, with gravy!
  13. Open the lever,push in on the lever (towards the mount), and rotate the captured nut on the other side one/sixth of a turn - one flat on the nut. Pushing in on the lever pushes the nut out of the captured machining on the other side of the mount. EDIT - Mount OFF the gun, of course. Won't be able to do this procedure with the mount on the gun...
  14. I have alot of ADM mounts - I set them up so the nut in the other side is JUST at that point where it locks up tight and the mount doesn't wiggle. I test it by loosening the nut one more flat, and it wiggles, then take that nut back that one flat so it doesn't wiggle. I don't worry about how much lever tension it takes to lock it down - just how it's adjusted so it JUST doesn't wiggle. JUST to that point. That's how I have all the magnified scope mounts set, and the red dot mounts set.
  15. Last weekend in March, I'll get you some vids of what a 16" .308AR can do at 660 yards.
  16. NATHAN! Right on, man - great interview.
  17. If it's an Armalite AR-10 Carbine receiver extension, it'll have an internal depth of 7 5/8".
  18. I've got them on the 7.5" 5.56 pistol and the 11.5" 5.56 pistol. They rock. Gen 3 is out now - I got mine just as they were releasing Gen 2, and had to wait. Got some of the first Gen 2 sets out.
  19. Just make sure you put a stout lock in every location that Pelican case has for a lock - if it's 6 lockable points, then 6 locks... NO TSA LOCKS, BROTHER!!!
  20. Absolutely awesome - I have the same materials and taper (profile) in the 16" version of that barrel. Great barrel.
  21. That's REALLY cool how they stepped right up like that - impressive customer service.
  22. I NEVER TRUST THE BAG SMASHERS AND RAMPMONKEYS... Texas airport baggage handler charged with stealing multiple checked firearms http://www.foxnews.com/travel/2017/03/03/texas-airport-baggage-handler-charged-with-stealing-multiple-checked-firearms.html Published March 03, 2017 FoxNews.com An airport baggage handler formerly employed at Austin-Bergstrom International Airpor has been arrested after authorities said he stole handguns from checked luggage to trade for marijuana. According to a press release issued Wednesday by the U.S Attorney’s Office, Western District of Texas, 25-year old baggage handler, Ja’Quan Johnson of Austin, Texas surrendered to FBI agents based on a federal criminal complaint charging him with theft from an interstate shipment and possession of stolen firearms while working at Austin's main airport (ABIA) The complaint alleges that Johnson stole numerous handguns from inside passenger bags at ABIA between Nov. 29, 2016 and Feb. 2, 2017. The complaint also claims that Johnson traded some of the stolen firearms for marijuana, which is illegal to possess in Texas. Austin police have since recovered seven stolen firearms and seized an unspecified amount of illegal drugs in warranted searches, which led to the arrests of two of Johnson's alleged accomplices. Should he be convicted, Johnson will face up to 10 years in a federal prison for theft from an interstate shipment and for possession of each stolen firearm. Johnson was released on a personal recognizance bond following his initial court appearance on March 1 before United States Magistrate Judge Andrew W. Austin. No future court dates have been announced but the FBI, Austin police and the Transportation Security Administration are currently investigating.
  23. Kinda scary to hear - welcome aboard... I think...
  24. Gotta get an Armalite AR-10 rifle gas tube in that thing before any other attempts at diagnosis... Gas has to be guaranteed, first.
  25. ^^^ Yep.
