Robocop1051 Posted September 9, 2018 Report Posted September 9, 2018 What’s this?? It may not look like much laying there naked... but this is more features integrated into a single format, than has ever been offered before. 100% completely ambidextrous controls, built directly into a 7075 billet receiver. Never again worry about the compatibility of bolt-on aftermarket parts, because the parts you want are already part of our system. We really can’t think of anything else to add to our receiver, or else we’d have crammed it in there among everything else. **UPDATE: 9/10/2018 7075 T-6 Billet Aluminum Type III Hardcoat Anodize Cerakote Ceramic Coating Integrated Ambidextrous Magazine Release Integrated Ambidextrous Bolt HOLD Integrated Ambidextrous Bolt RELEASE Ambidextrous Safety Selector I have my own design, but I might outsource this to cut down on my machine time. There are a lot of good quality, affordable, options out there. Integrated Ambidextrous Anti-Rotation Q.D. mounts Replaceable Q.D. cups... NOBODY offers this ability! Flared Magwell

It’s just my new design for a replaceable, anti-rotation, QD attachment plug... and, yes, I put one on both side.
jtallen83 Posted September 9, 2018 Report Posted September 9, 2018 Very nice, looks stout! Take down and pivot pins?

98Z5V Posted September 9, 2018 Report Posted September 9, 2018 That's a different receiver curve than both Armalite and DPMS-based systems... Kind of a cross between the two.
Robocop1051 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Report Posted September 9, 2018 It’s that angle and the light/glare. It’s a LR308 compatible receiver.

I don’t see myself making DI Uppers anytime soon. It’s for that reason that I am making LR308 compatible lowers, so that I can still market to people who want to build their own rifles. I realize that my piston operated system isn’t for everyone. That’s fine.

blue109 Posted September 9, 2018 Report Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) I go through these phases lol. Got rid of the other two .308s and was down to 2 ARs for a while. Collection is growing again though Edited September 9, 2018 by blue109

I know how they work, but I have never shot a short stroke, I hear it creates more of a snap in the recoil from the piston basically hammering the bcg.

There is about 0.02" between the operation rod and the surface of the bolt key. The end of my op rod is also radius-ed, and my bolt key is cupped, so that the impact is more of a capture vs a hammer effect. No way to peen the surface that way. My operation rod also has three contact points inside the rifle, preventing it from straying, and possibly bending or missing. The three points are in constant contact with the op rod at all times.
survivalshop Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 Whats the notch at the Mag Well & Trigger Guard ? Ambi-Bolt release ? What finish do you plan on applying ?

I can't say I have seen a long stroke piston like an ak in any ar platform, I wonder why that is.

From the 5.56x45 to the .338 Lapua Magnum. PWS makes a long stroke system. I was with Farkle when he bent his op rod while shooting his. The whole rifle was frozen because of it. PWS made good on it, but it still sucked none the less.
