survivalshop Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 Nice looking rifle, I like the color scheme . I plan on using the color on a 5.56 carbine I'm building . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxgusmc Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I have had several questions about the JP gas block fit up, so here is a couple of pictures: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXAGG05 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Shot a friend's .223 with the Jp adjustable on it last weekend and decided I already want to upgrade my rifle that's on order, but have a few questions in summary.The rifle I ordered is a custom build LR-308-B, which makes it .308 chamber, 18", fluted, threaded. I would assume that's technically the same as the SASS.Is the fitment issue with the barrel, or the handguard?JP lists the size of their adjustable gb at .936" bore and DPMS lists the same on their build page.So is there a fitment/function issue or not anymore?EDIT: Ok, so I understand why it shouldn't fit the barrel, but apparently it does work?

skeeter Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 What paint did you use on that handguard? Looks like a great match to the Magpul stuff. Very nice rifle maxgusmc! <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, I'd elect to go with the JP Low Profile adjustable gas block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMoto Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 In that case, I'd elect to go with the JP Low Profile adjustable gas block. This is what I intend to do when i can. I will report back with results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
