I'm not sure here, but I'm pretty positive Pappy knows about The Rule. I think he has 2 on order, and ONE for sale... <lmao> It's all in how you phrase it, and he phrased it all kinda wrong, to avoid The Rule... :banana:

Damn, they might be out of business now... Just searched for one, no bueno, anywhere. Back in the day, it wasn't legal for Service Rifle competition, but those rules were for the M16/AR15 competition, well before the M110 category came on... Lesson 65b... <lmao>

I've been rockin' the Sierra Precision SPR-1 since 2010. Fuckin' GREAT adjustable buttplate. Originally, I built my first .308AR after the "M110 design." I started with the A2 stock on it. Scope position, eye relief, etc., just wasn't what I wanted it to be. I found out about the Sierra Precision SPR-1 buttplate from Fulton Armory, after talking to them about the issues I didn't like with my rifle. They suggested it. And I bought it from them, immediately. Right after installing it on the A2, it was too much LOP. Right back onto the website, Fulton A1 stock body and shorter screw ordered, and away we went. That adjustable buttplate actually does MORE than the spec'd M110 stock does. Look at it closely, and it's easy to figure out. I love the fuckin' thing. :hethan: I've been telling you guys about it for 5 years now - and I don't think another single person here has tried it... <dontknow> The original build: SPR-1 installed:

Damnit. This all just reminds me that I need to call Roger...
-
Call Bill Geissele. Seriously. This is very good, too.
-
Damn near - right next door to him. One IMPRESSIVE armory... :hail:
-
Damn, that rifle looks good.
-
Pappy! Where you been, brother?
-
DAMN, BUBBA!!! :eek: :hail:
-
You killed the glue, brother... <lmao>

Not a big deal, if you can get the other piece out. Alot of people think the barrel index pin locks the extension onto the barrel, but it doesn't. If the old chunk will come out, you have no issues, brother. http://www.jsesurplus.com/ar15barrelextensionpinpinonly.aspx Yank that fucker out with a wicked magnet... :hethan:

^^^ THAT GUY... is on FIRE! <lmao> en FUEGO!!! :hethan:

Yep, this is how it all went down... Had a buddy call me last night when I was on the way home from work. He lives in Oklahoma. He was in Sedona, AZ, and on his way to Yuma, AZ, to pick up a bunch of equipment for work. Turn-N-Burn run. He said he'd hit my place around noon today, and asked if it was okay to stop - hadn't seen him since 2009 or so. HELL YEAH, it's okay to stop!!! :hethan: He calls me when he's about 5 miles from town, and says, "Hey, forgot to mention, I've got another guy from work with me - is that okay? He's a retired SEAL..." Hehehe - Hell Yeah, it's STILL okay, brother!!! Real quick-like, I had to change t-shirts, before they arrived... I decided to pick THIS one to wear, for their arrival... :banana: My buddy and his cohort get here, he comes in and I give him a BIGASS Pants Down hug - kinda freaked the other guy out. He sees my shirt and says, "Really?!..." and laughed his ass off... I says, "Yep, it's gotta be that way..." <laughs> INSTANT Male Bonding... <lmao> I fired up the grill, blazed some bratwurst, laid out the home-brewed spinach-artichoke dip, and we shot the shiit for awhile - then the conversation turned... to guns... Well, THAT got interesting, and all kinds of stuff started getting pulled out. That convo went on for awhile, lead to other crazy dangerous shiit, the motorcycles came up. That led to the CR500, in the storyline. So, we progress out back, and the 500 gets dug out of it's dedicated storage facility - I meant to get it out today anyway, and work on the carb. We talked for another long while, and their boss calls - apparently, there was another crew out on the road, they were 1 of 2 driving crews, getting and hauling gear. The other crew was already in Yuma, and was worried because they had no signs of these guys... Other crew calls the boss, boss calls them, and they say they're "still on the way..." So, they had to leave. GREAT visit, and I have a new friend and saw my old friend. So, anyway, they take off, and I get to work on the 500. Minor stuff, but I got it all done - and left it out. Now, out of nowhere, I FINALLY get me some fuckin' Monsoon Season here, that I've been begging for.Shiit just starts immediately, and it's a fuckin' downpour here. There was no way I was getting the 500 back to it's dedicated storage facility, and the next best thing to do was... It gets to sleep inside tonight... :yup:

DPMS LR-308 A2 Buffer Tube Lenghts
98Z5V replied to StrongArm67's topic in DPMS LR-308 General, Technical Discussion
The VLTOR A5 system. Specifically meant to convert a USMC 20" M16 to a collapsible-stock system. The end result is the USMC M16A5. -
^^^ He nailed it. Based on this: "Designed to be a truly silent weapon, the DeLisle is considered by many to be the most effective firearm of its type ever produced. With only 167 originally produced, the DeLisle is one of the rarest of the WWII firearms." ...A loud DeLisle isn't gonna get it. And I know someone with an original...

Guys, he stated this already ^^^... Won't hurt to try a standard bolt catch, but his catch is functioning right now. I'm just sayin'...
-
^^^ I see what you did there...
-
Take apart the buffer, remove one weight, insert a 1/2" diameter plastic spacer of equal length. Run it and see if that works. That's gonna tell you if it's the buffer weight - which is a gas port diameter issue with a standard-weight buffer. It's a shortcut, but a good test.
-
When it won't lock back, it's usually because the buffer is too heavy - BCG gets enough travel to eject a spend piece of brass, but not far enough to hit the catch. If you're using a standard buffer, and not a heavier buffer, then it's a gas issue - your gas port on the barrel is too small, usually.

His profile says Virginia Beach... <lmao> Welcome aboard, man. Please pardon the non-observant one in our bunch... <laughs>

Lighted to heaviest, in the Geissele Hi-Speed lineup is: Match, DMR, Service. Lighter pull on the Match over the DMR gives you the advantage of... lighter pull. That's it. Have you used one of the Geissele Hi-Speed triggers before? If not, I'd suggest the DMR first. It's adjustment range, overall, can go into the upper pull-weight ranges of the Match, and into the lighter pull-weight ranges of the Service. If you adjust into the minimum pull-weight of it (into the upper ranges of the Match), and find that you don't like triggers that light, you can change it. You can only take the pull-weight of the Match up to a certain extent, and if it's still to light for you, you'll be trying to sell an expensive trigger. There is no downside to any Geissele trigger. My $0.02.

Integral suppressor - suppressed was the only way to get it. One day, I'll have one, but it won't be from the two manufacturers that currently make it. There's another company out there working on it, designed from an original, exact in every way.
