  1. The feature might be turned off, on an individual level. Typically, you'd hit your profile, select Gallery, and upload your stuff into it. From there, you can paste it right into posts and threads. It's basically a self-contained image-hosting feature, so you don't have to load into Photobucket, ImageShack, and the like, then link from an external site.
  2. A quick call to Geissele would clear that up. I'm sure they'd be completely open about it.
  3. Invision Power Board feature - you can upload your own pics into your gallery, then link them into your threads and posts.
  4. Like the M4 videos that came out a couple years ago - on the standard barrel (A2 profile), the barrel drooped and blew out. On the heavy barrel (SOCOM profile), the gas tube get go, but the barrel was still intact, and the rifle was firing single-shot. Charge-shoot, charge-shoot, charge-shoot...
  5. 16" Rifle gas M118LR would be a fabulous addition to that lineup - I hope the boss goes for it. For the mainstream public, you should get ahold of Clint at Fulton, and let him know that we could have sold several of his MW profile 16" rifle gas barrels in the past few years, if he would stock them again. That barrel was always a winner. He should consider stocking a few at a time, all the time. We'll make sure they get sold for him. <thumbsup>
  6. Looks like a good program! Hmmm.....
  7. Swiping that thing is some low, low dirtbag $hit...
  8. There's a pic of that pup in a thread here - cool dog! Gonna be a BIG dog!
  9. Headspace verified by a very reputable vendor, all torque set by you off correct specs. Function check passed. You're good. <thumbsup> Sling lead, my good man.

    If you've never heard of Ralphie May, then you are in for a surprise. This dude is hilarious! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBhAyIahLvA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTwQRV8K3GU Yes, I will blow up your day with this... <lmao>
  11. That's a smokin' deal on that sight. Snatch that while it's still there. I nailed mine in 2010 at the Ft Belvoir PX for a little cheaper - but EOTech was having an instant counter rebate then, and the PX doesn't charge sales tax. I've honestly never seen a 512 cheaper than that, brother.
  12. ^^^ What blue said. <thumbsup> Blast it.
  13. It'll still shoot very, very well, when you find that perfect charge weight for your rifle configuration. But no, you won't find the consistency in the projectiles that you'll find in match projectiles.
  14. I've shot that upper configuration from Shibi - DAMN does that thing shoot nice! That a fine looking piece of hardware, man.
  15. That's normal, especially for that type of projo - FMJ-BT.
  16. For the record, I'm building a .308 AR with a 13.7" barrel, currently...
  17. Not for 5.56, and the design of the cartridge, which is where this is all coming from. That 5,56 projo needs to fragment to do what it was designed to do - otherwise, it leaves a small entry wound and a small exit wound, straight through. Fragmentation ability is directly tied to bullet speed on impact. The speed reduction of 5.56 from a 11.5" barrel down to a 10.5" barrel is the major jump, and the major loss in speed. You're already at a disadvantage shorter than 11.5", due to that drop in speed at anything under that point/length. Now, with those reduced speeds, and when you drop under the "fragmentation speed," you need to determine what ranges you'll expect to engage targets with said short-barreled weapon. If your job is room clearing, you can do that with a pretty short barrel, and that 5.56 bullet will probably fragment in that distance. If you're taking your 7.5" 5.56 pistol out to a 300-yard engagement point, that 5.56 projo is not going to fragment at that range. You better make a vital hit with it. Anyway, that's the background on it. More can be found in the works of Doc Roberts, and his analysis and presentations.
  18. You should always shoulder it well - think of it like this: the rifle needs a good base to recoil against. It literally is the same thing as limp-wristing a semi-auto pistol. Give the same ammo another chance, through another 100-rd test - but knowing what you found out. Bet they all run well the second time. <thumbsup> How many rounds total through this rifle now?
  19. Figured since Micro asked for it, I needed to get this info in this thread, too... <thumbsup>
  20. The .22 TCM is one bad little bastard - awesome acquisition. <thumbsup>
  21. I think he planned it that way... <lmao>
  22. I think that was the first AZ Shoot that Rob showed up to - everybody came down to the Sierra Vista Range. The 100-rd drum was gone in under 20 seconds - and that's still with clearing one jam... <lmao> I think that video is in that thread, towards the end of it... Holy Shitz that was a fun range day. :hethan:
  23. Those guys are gonna be pissed next weekend, brother... <lmao> I'm gonna put this on the stock:
  24. This is for those that might doubt whether I dead-centered that bastard the second time... We'll just remove all doubt right now... <lmao> Had 5 more rounds in the Ruger GSR mag, so I had Jake shoot two offhand, with sling, Primary Arms 3MOA red dot - target was the section of zero targets at 50 yards. He shot two, and I shot the other three. I hope I had the ones that were closer to center, or I put two lower left, then jerked another one... <laughs>
