^^^ ...and here go the Viagra jokes... <lmao> OP, that badass, man. <thumbsup>

Daily .45 ACP dose. NOT a Glock... :))

Poor misguided Adam will see the light as soon as he and I meet - and he shoots some Geissele Hi-Speed DMR triggers, and some more Geissele SSA-E triggers, and the some Geissele S3G triggers. He'll wisen up a little. He'll even get to shoot the ATC SR-Gold trigger in the 308. As well as the Armalite NM 2-stage, a Jard 2.5lb 2-stage and a Jard 2.0lb 2-stage, along with some ALG ACT triggers, a Spike's NiB trigger, and a few others. Rational Clarity is something to behold, when it hits someone. I'll get that on video... <lmao> He'll shoot that new Timney 2.5lb 2-stage flat trigger in the 700, too - but that's not an AR trigger, and he can't have it... Holy $HIT, that thing is sweet! <thumbsup>

Ah $hit, here it goes... :banana:

Machine it first, and finalize the lower. Build it and test fire it to make sure you machined everything right. Once it fires, rip it apart and paint it. It would suck - SUCK - to machine it and paint it, or worse yet, paint it then THEN machine it - to find out that something was off, and you wasted $35 for 4oz of Cerakote. This is the 3rd one I've done with Cerakote, and I haven't masked any holes in the lower or upper. Everything goes together great, with painted holes. This stuff goes on at 0.0005"~0.001". 5 TEN-THOU to 1 THOU. It goes on pretty damn thin. <thumbsup> I was heavy on that Snow White, and the only thing I thought I messed up was not cleaning out the safety selector hole before baking. Baked it, installed the safety, and it loosened up with one drop of lube. Get after it, man! <lmao>

Also, there's tons of info on this site about parts compatibility - it's everywhere. You could start searching about builds and compiling info - probably TOO much info, all over the place here. Don't even know where to start to direct you in looking. Literally, it's all over the place. Your database will explode, but your head would probably burst first, from finding all of it. Look around in the manufacturers sections, and find the differences between Armalite, DPMS and RRA patterns. You need to start there. Happy Hunting, and welcome aboard.

..and ZIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!!! <lmao> Shib, you NEED to do that, man. Afterall, YOU started that $hit... :banana:

If you already have the Geissele in mind, and long-range accuracy is your ultimate goal, then don't mess around with the trigger. Just buy the Geissele Hi-Speed Match and be done.

Everytime this comes up, the Glock Fags come running from out of the woodwork... <lmao> <outtahere>

You posted this Sep 24th. It's Sep 27th. You don't have pics of the SBRs up here yet... :bat:

I see what you did there... :eek:

Oh Lordy, here we go on the Glock thing... <lmao>

It's not - just make sure you cover well. I took all my parts down to bare metal in the blast cabinet, so I wasn't working on covering black parts - they were just raw aluminum. About 2.5oz out of the 4oz bottle covered a 10" hanguard, upper and lower, and carbine receiver extension. Didn't cover any hole in the lower, just shot it with the paint. The BADASS safety was a little stiff to move at first, but it loosened right up. Trigger and hammer pins went right in, no problem, as well as everything else. I think pics of that rifle are earlier in this thread. EDIT - Pics of it are on pages 4 and 5.

Bubba, they still have the two models listed right on their own website - NikoPlex and BDC: http://www.nikonsportoptics.com/en/Nikon-Products/Scopes/AR-MSR/index.page

Shoot me what you want shot with paint, brother. I'll fire it up and get it back within a week here. I have Thursday and Sundays off, so I can sit in the blast cabinet the day prior, paint it the next day, and get it out again. Lemme know what you're looking at for a color, and what you want painted. I'm getting ready to paint some custom knuckles on a Jeep front axle for a guy - he's trying to determine the color now. He powdercoated them bright green, but didn't like it. He had them in the blast cabinet at work yesterday... <lmao> My new bottles of Dark Earth and Burnt Bronze will be here Tuesday. That light gray $hit goes back in the cabinet on Wednesday, painting it Thursday, and putting that damn rifle back together that afternoon. I hate having a rifle apart. Only need a little of the Dark Earth to finish that rifle, so I'll have enough left over for the XD-45 lower - and I'll get the slide with the Burnt Bronze. I need to do the rifle paint and the XD-45 both, at the same time. $hit gonna go down on Thursday!!!

I run Armalite springs in everything except for two rifles - I just don't know what that rifle-length spring was. In one other particular rifle, I wore out the Armalite spring, and replaced it with a Sprinco "Blue" carbine spring.

Back in early 2010, WAAAAAY back... <lmao> DNP knows he deal - I was dead set on building from an Iron Ridge billet set. He and I were talking about it over and over. I went to a gun show in Dulles Expo Center and came home with a DPMS 308 lower... Just couldn't WAIT to built it!!! Damn, am I glad I didn't go the the IRA set. <thumbsup>

The entire story is around here somewhere...

Not really "another basic receiver set," guys - look closely at the pics. It's every single bit what the Spike's Billet 308 would have been, which is a "damn near identical version" of the Spike's Billet 5.56 set - which is a damn nice receiver set. Seekins make the billet 5.56 receivers for Spikes, and the Spike's BAR and SAR rails. This is exactly what the Spike's 308 would have looked like. <thumbsup>

Derp!...

For Micro... <lmao>

Attached to 2/75 at the end of 2003 for an Afghan deployment, and worked with all three companies - didn't meet him personally. Dealt with Bn leadership, all the company commanders, all the company 1SGs, and most platoon leaders. He was probably on that deployment (the whole Bn was deployed), and he'd remember our presence there with them. Ask him about the Intel Guys that were attached to them on that one. Official name of that deployment was "Operation Mountain Resolve," with 10th Mountain Division overall in that region. If he did Jumpmaster at Ft Lewis between 1999 and 2003, then I was one of his instructors. We always held aside 10 slots for every 60-man class for 2/75 guys. In 2000, we took 12, and all 12 graduated - they constituted their own "Ranger Stick" of JM students. 2/75 Bn CSM went nuts!

ggymrat, post followup questions. Need your input here.

Like Shibi's Happy Ending?! :eek: <dontknow> <laughs>
