ARdentFan Posted April 8, 2015 Report Posted April 8, 2015 Hi all, Thought Id make an intro post before creating a "did I research this right?" thread :) Been involved in firearms for about 5 years now and got hooked with this type of semi auto platform after getting a deal on an intro AR15 I couldn't refuse. Now I'm ready to stretch my legs and after doing a lot of reading, reading, and more reading, youtube video watching on construction techniques and more reading I'm ready to take the plunge and build a 308AR gun. Of the sites I've read this one attracted me the most hence the registration.
Robocop1051 Posted April 8, 2015 Report Posted April 8, 2015 Welcome ARdent. From Cali... you picked the right place to get started
ARdentFan Posted April 8, 2015 Author Report Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Thanks Robo! The Barrel Nut thread was what convinced me to sign up. Great comraderie from the members and the playful ribbing vibe was right up my alley for a forum! Edited April 8, 2015 by ARdentFan
Armed Eye Doc Posted April 8, 2015 Report Posted April 8, 2015 Welcome from Texas. There will likely be someone on the board who has already done or tried what you are looking to do.
ARdentFan Posted April 8, 2015 Author Report Posted April 8, 2015 Thats what I'm counting on! You read so much and try to gather so much information you just go on overload. If someone has already been there, done that with first hand experience that would be awesome!
EasyEJL Posted April 8, 2015 Report Posted April 8, 2015 The Barrel Nut thread was what convinced me to sign up.we get a lot of barrel nuts here. Mostly the "it has to be at least 26" so I can shoot 1400 yards, but it has to weigh less than a pound and be foldable so I can carry it in heavy thorned brush" type. ;)welcome from FL

Oh wait, wrong forum...Welcome from CA!
Rsquared Posted April 15, 2015 Report Posted April 15, 2015 Welcome from MD. A lot of builds have gone on around here. As others have said, it's more than likely been tried before. Ask away my man, that's what we're here for.
