Damn near...

You wouldn't know how to run the gear required to measure the differences... <lmao>

Larry, it's some kind of sexual device. <laughs>

The tang on the front is wider, sturdier - but doesn't have the reach. Wasn't locking the bolt back on the last round. That was consistent across steel DPMS mags, Pmag LR20s, and Lancer L7 mags. Never locked the bolt back on the Lancers or Pmags not even once, and would get caught by the DPMS about 1/2 the time. Won't work reliably in the AP sets. Plus, you have to fit it for the AP set. It's not fun to fit it.

You tell him it was fine, as long as the weren't using a backhoe to do it?... <lmao> Right on, wash!

I updated my build thread - AP builders, don't use the Armalite 10B catch. I'll explain more once I get the 10A in-hand, and can get pics of all 3 together.

Armalite 10B bolt catch is out. I'll explain more once I get my hands on the Armalite 10A catch, and toss up pics of all 3. Note to AP builders - don't use the Armalite 10B catch.

I felt bad that the original thread was closed before i could really see it. I'm glad the dumbass came back for Round 2. <thumbsup> Chris, I'll buy something from you, just for all the bull$hit that guy talked.

She'd toss an armbar on him and put him down hard. I'm just sayin'... :eek: :bat:

I never called them about an issue, because I didn't buy the parts from them. I bought that lower already built, from a member here, but that was specifically listed in his parts list - hell, we helped him build that rifle. That receiver extension is too deep, and that fuckin' spring is weird. It doesn't even go (belong) in an AR15. Brother, I'd say just buy some quality mil-spec AR15 carbine receiver extension, and the Armalite EA1095 spring, and run it. the buffer they have is good - measures out, and it's a heavy little fucker. For them to say no one has had an issue - well, maybe nobody has told them that there's an issue. I sure as hell had an issue with it, though. <dontknow>

Aero's bolt catch works. Only reason I changed mine is to get something with more beef in there. Their bolt catch is fully functional... Please post a pic of the issue you're having. If I understand it correctly, when you put your upper in place (pinned on the lower), the width of the upper pushes the bolt catch out, into the bolt-hold position...

all that video successfully did ws show that a child actor went on to become a Marine, and was in aviation training at some point... That bull$hit couldn't even link the child actor to the fuckhead that shot up the church...

I've been picking up parts to build up the second one, and figured I'd try something out. For the second one (nowhere near built yet), I selected the Armalite AR10 Carbine receiver extension, EA1095 spring and the AR10 Carbine buffer (an AR15 Carbine H3 buffer is exactly what it is). Swapped those extension parts over to this running rifle - guess what? No bolt face overtravel, way beyond the bolt catch... Re-measured the internal depth on the AP parts and receiver extension, and came up with 7.100" again. Should be 7.000", just like an AR15 Carbine receiver extension. Short little buffer still comes in at 2.504", which is right where it should be. The spring was weird as hell. 10.75" long (relaxed length), 26 coils, wire diameter 0.070". Fuckin' weird spring... Overall suggestion: Don't hesitate to build an Aero Precision 308 set - just don't use their carbine receiver extension kit. I'll shoot it on Thirsty Thursday and see how she functions, with the Armalite parts. I don't predict any problems.

DSG has the 10B catch. They don't have the 10A in stock there, or listed.

Both. All.

Too late now - did you ask Slash before you ordered it?... <lmao>

I used the Armalite catch in the first Aero set - just wanted a catch with more meat on it. I used the 10B catch, and had some fitting to do. The 10A catch will probably drop right in with no work.

Shepp, FDE sticker count - how many ya got?

<laughs> Good one... :happydrunks:

That stuff needs to get into the hands (and packs) of Combat Medics. Amazing. No, not the damn ATF...

I keep an axe in my truck. You never know...

What's with the girl with the beard, in the first pic?...

Got a temper problem? Why the hell is GB feedback SO important to you? Why do you have such a hardon for GB positive feedback? Got some stockpiling to do?... Your server was hardly in China, too. You didn't put up much of a fight, either.

I hope the OP understands that everything that's happening right now is the 100% direct result of his own actions. 100%.

That's the charge that shows up, superpilot. I'm sure you came back here to show us. You're excelling. <thumbsup>
