As soon as McEnroe started crying, I'd bust his knee... :bat:

Just put some synthetic EP grease, and don't even worry about it. <thumbsup>

I know. I know. <lmao> No need, now, since it fits perfectly in a discreet bag. <thumbsup>

Found 'em: https://www.carrlane.com/catalog/index.cfm/27825071F0B221118070C1C513E111D081B0006280B1713050245221E0107070F1A3C3B2853514B54 "Ball Plungers" looks like the common name. They even have "Plunger Wrenches" for easier installation:

^^^ You nailed it. Well.

Here's how she rolls these days, men. Fits perfectly inside a tennis racket bag. <thumbsup>

Damn, I love that rifle...

I'm not having any luck finding you a 20" heavy/bull barrel, threaded or not. do you have a 24" heavy now? Get it cut down and recrowned... ADCO can do this for you effortlessly.

Pick from among many great barrels, then, and run a thread protector. Just an idea. You won't find too many barrels out there that will outshoot this one: http://www.rainierarms.com/rainier-arms-matchtm-308-barrel-20 Mount a thread protector, done.

Is the "no threads" something that's self-imposed, or state-law imposed? Why no threads?

No, we don't... <lmao>

They'll still allow concealed carry. The CEO is an "avid hunter with a concealed-carry license." He thinks people will be uncomfortable with patrons "visibly armed." I like these two comments: ^^^ That dude gets it. <thumbsup> ^^^ That stupid-ass doesn't get it. :ugone2far: How many examples does she need, in order to understand that... Armed criminals hoping to make a statement almost always target gun-free zones... Why do you need to bring a gun into any location where there are kids? To protect them...

You may not have a choice - you might have already been sucked in, kicking and screaming... You just didn't realize it yet... <lmao>

If this comes up again - Ruger SR-762 lower receiver is identical to the Matrix Aerospace M-762 lower receiver. I did this:

I tackled the Matrix takedown spring area this way - cut a second spring and stacked them. i should have used a small washer to separate the two springs, but can't find a washer small enough. I doubt the springs will connect (spiral together at the ends) based in the amount of movement there is there. If they do, it's not a big deal, not a high-risk area. I figured I needed the spring to stick out as much as it does on any other AR15 build, which is about this much: I stacked the two springs together (detent and takedown pin in place), and just cut it off there. Looked right. Length on both springs, end-to-end: Didn't feel like drilling the lower to use a 6-32 set screw, so I just ran the 4-40 tap in the stock hole - no drilling required to run a 4-40, if you decide that. 4-40 set screw going in: Done:

Gary, did everything work out?

Yep, insert flat blade screwdriver enough to compress the ball, and it contacts the slots. You're raising or lowering the whole device to make the adjustment, not really changing the tension of it.

Yeah, because you could use the lower jaw as a damn weapon! <lmao>

I love this video - I really do. <thumbsup> I'm not a Glock fanboy, by ANY means. I bash them more than anything else, but that's because I could never get used to that first round, with the trigger safety. I don't like it, and that's me. However, I do respect those pistols. That damn video is great!

wait... you're gonna scare her with the helicopter?!... <lmao>

Yep - medic, does that charging handle latch to the inside of the receiver?... That's cool, and different. Pics of the charging handle, please... out of the rifle... :)) One of these days, I'll build on an SID set - so damn nice...

Yep, and the guy was too cheap to buy this 5.56 version and try it out. I was gonna buy it just to try it, but told him I'd cut his stock ejection port rod to take his non-fitting one off, rather than take apart his upper. I told him I'd give him the new cover if it works. He didn't want to do it... <dontknow> EDIT - Matrix sticks that little gem right in the back of the FCG pocket, where the lug on the upper will contact it - easy tensioning device, and pretty damn smart. <thumbsup>

Yep! <lmao>

That is the exact - exact - same detent that Matrix Aerospace is putting into their lower receivers, to tension the upper receiver when it's closed. Slick as $hit setup. <thumbsup>

He DOES owe us a flight out, doesn't he... <munch>
