No. It's too short. Your buddy's AR15 carbine buffer is too short to run in his rifle-length receiver extension, too. He's gonna fuk some parts up, so educate him quick, before he's buying another lower. Show him this pic: Right after you show him that pic, bitch-slap him in the back of the head, and tell him he's an idiot. <thumbsup>

That's normal - they should be the same length.

6-32 tap and set screw work well, too. Drill first, with the correct drill bit - #35 or #36 work equally well in this role. Larger diameter, larger allen (not brittle, like the tinyass allen that fits a 4-40, I think it's 0.050"). More meat, coarser threads, easier to work with. I thread all mine with 6-32, unless they were already threaded for 4-40. EDIT - 6-32 set screws are a hell of alot easier to find, too. <thumbsup>

Slightly crack the charging handle to unseat the bolt, and everything comes out of the barrel. <thumbsup>

And if they ever TRY to follow the rules, they get warnings from THAT GUY... ^^^ <lmao>

Oh, Sweet Hay-Soos, this is a NICE DAMN RAIL! :hethan: New-Build-Pics coming up this weekend, with shoot results. I have an installation trick coming, too. <thumbsup> Installation de-structions tell you that you need the DPMS 2-prong .308 Armorer's Wrench to install this - you don't, if you have another cool piece of hardware in your toolbox. Wait for it.... WAAAAAAIT... :banana:

The SF group 106s were all on the trailer/tripod. As the firer, you were sitting on the left leg of the tripod, and your spotter was on the right leg. If you had a pic, you would have seen why you were in the middle of the biggest boom you ever felt - the fireball was curling back out of the 106, then forward and around you... <lmao>

Fuk yeah! Works for Ed!!! <lmao>

Intake and exhaust mods, a jet kit, and the Doo-Hickey mod. All necessary. To start. <thumbsup> We'll get into cargo capacity later, if you go that route. SW-Motech for it all.

I hate those buck-toothed killing machines... :rant2: :bat:

Try alot of different cigars. The ones you DO NOT LIKE, you will remember.

Marbles. I'm just sayin'...

I do that every chance I get... :hethan: <lmao>

That was NUTS!

Angel, did you notice the dust port/water port in the bottom of the Lancers? Pretty damn sweet addition. <thumbsup> It's on the lock plate for the bottom cover on the mag. Open for water exfil, closed to prevent dust intrusion. Badass design.

I don't think 0.047" gas port is gonna get it on a midlength gas 18" .308 barrel. My opinion. Too small.

I'll help you out with this - the "private range" is probably private, and Madhouse has a connection, so that part would be out, for you. However, here's the information on the American Shooting Center: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=American+Shooting+Center

HELL YEAH, BROTHER!!! :hethan: You'll need to mod it. I have extensive experience modding KLRs. I'm just sayin'... <lmao>

0.047" seems TINY. I've never seen a gas port that small in a .308 AR barrel, or a 5.56 barrel. What gas system is that new barrel using?

Send it to me - I'll run it until it pukes, or performs. It'll break in, or die. Same thing you have to do to new Privates when they get to you... <lmao>

There's a bunch that could be done to these rifles to better them, as far as Lock Time goes. Heart of the Action by David Tubb | September 23rd, 2010 http://www.rifleshootermag.com/shooting-tips/shooting_tips_rs_heartaction_200811/ In the search for the ultimate in match rifle accuracy, faster is better. Tubb’s redesigned bolt for the Remington 700 is all about reducing lock time and increasing accuracy. It incorporates a lightweight firing pin, smaller firing pin hole, smaller ejector and a more efficient extractor design. The Remington 700 action is popular and in use by many competitive shooters, as well as tactical professionals, and for years I’ve been striving to make it better. It’s unrealistic to criticize a reasonably priced factory rifle for not including some of the re-engineered system components I and others have come up with. The ignition system is a good example. I am adamant about attaining an extremely fast lock time (the time between trigger break and primer ignition). Shooting offhand, for instance, there’s always more movement than we want. I believe that there is a connection between rifle accuracy and lock time, and without a doubt there is a connection between lock time and score when shooting at targets on a windy day. So every time we can reduce the time between trigger break and cartridge ignition, we have effectively improved accuracy. If the shot fires closer to the time the sight or crosshairs are on target, then the bullet will hit nearer to the position of the sight or crosshairs. Can’t ask for more than that. So the first product I created many years ago was the SpeedLock lightweight firing pin for the 700. After that, and realizing that no amount of custom gunsmithing could accomplish what a clean sheet of paper could, I came up with a new, complete bolt assembly. The components included an efficient, small extractor; a smaller firing pin hole diameter; a small diameter ejector; precision manufacturing techniques that eliminate the need for truing and squaring; and, of course, fast lock-time. I also wanted to offer interchangeable bolt knobs so shooters could change them to suit their needs. I incorporated every lock-time reduction trick I know—light-weight aluminum bolt shroud, lightened cocking piece, chrome silicon spring and a SpeedLock firing pin with an 0.062-inch diameter pin tip to go along with the smaller hole diameter into this part—and it provides a little better than 40 percent faster ignition over standard bolts. That means the bullet leaves the muzzle before the firing pin tip on a stock 700 action has even hit the primer. That’s big. Reducing the firing pin hole diameter to 0.065 inches (a Remington bolt’s firing pin hole is normally 0.078) also makes for far fewer pierced primers when striving to attain maximum velocities from a load. Additionally, increased striker energy is imparted onto the primer for more reliable ignition. The reason for reducing the ejector diameter was to help minimize brass flow into the ejector hole, and with a smaller ejector plunger hole in the locking lug the bolt is slightly stronger. Remington stock size is 0.135 inch; ours measures 0.110. The extractor design is another part I developed years ago. Shooters have long been replacing the stock Remington extractor with a Sako-style one to improve function. I believe an extractor should be as small as possible to increase the effective bolt face integrity, but it must also work 100 percent. Additionally, I increased the bolt body diameter to 0.699 inches, so that bushing the front and rear for a close fit in the action—as we often do on stock bolts—isn’t necessary. Adding flutes to the bolt body decreased weight and changed its appearance. A custom rifle should look custom. NOTE: We, on this board, will have an option for a Titanium firing pin coming up soon. <thumbsup>

Then it's justified... <lmao>

Helped rip it apart while he was digging the parts out and reinstalling them. He knew what was going on right away. He's what got me into looking at these things deeper, and figuring out not just what the problem was, but why it was a problem in the first place. Nobody liked the two Armorers we had - they were awesome. If I had free time, i'd go shoot the $hit with them, just to do it. I still talk to one of them today, and he's a hell of a good friend. <thumbsup> I was going to mention David Tubb. Glad someone else did. He's put out quite a bit of into on how Lock Time has an affect on accuracy. Yes, we are talking about milliseconds, too. <thumbsup>

Just BUY THE THING already!!! <lmao> Nobody likes a quitter, and all that. The longer you wait, the bigger the chance that Lesson 65b will whip your a$s... <laughs> You snooze, you lose... :banana:

sounds like a cartoon?...
