44Dave Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 OK, so a Black Rain receiver came home with me today so I figure I'm one of you guys now. I'm wondering which AR15 LPK parts are compatible with this LR308. Is there a list somewhere? Searching was not fruitful for me. I thought a MOE grip was compatible but hell if I can get it on...
Robocop1051 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) You definitely need new pivot/takedown pons. You should upgrade to an Armalite bolt catch and mag catch. The MOE grips should fit. Have you tried cussing? I often find if I use colorful four letter words in varying order, the difficult parts tend to fit better. If it breaks, fcuk it... you needed a new one anyways. Lol Seriously though. The grips are all interchangeable. As with many .308's... Some fitting may be required.

44Dave Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 OK, fitting I can do. So the trigger, selector, & safety are interchangeable?
shibiwan Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 OK, fitting I can do. So the trigger, selector, & safety are interchangeable? Yes
imschur Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 There are also some 308 specific triggers http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/triggers-bottom-metals/triggers/index.htm?avs|Make_3=AR%20xzzx308
44Dave Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 Those would be nice, but I already have a few extra ar triggers. After paying for the receiver set, bcg, handle... I'm broke ;p
imschur Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 I always like to remind folks they better off skimping on stocks, grips and handguards. Barrel and fire control group are the heart of the weapons accuracy.
98Z5V Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 If you're broke now, it's only gonna get worse. I'm just sayin'... The rest of this thing will take a toll on the wallet!

Barrel and fire control group are the heart of the weapons accuracy. Thats true, but thats going to be a future upgrade. A rifle without a barrel is worse than a rifle without a match trigger, right?

Especially if some of these guys around here have anything to say about it. Buncha friggin enablers I tell ya! <lmao>

44Dave Posted October 30, 2013 Author Report Posted October 30, 2013 So my problem with the moe grip is that its so tight the receiver is shaving off plastic as it slides on. And then it cant go on all the way. The way I see it I have 3 choices: A) lightly file the inside of the handle B) heat gun to make the grip more pliable and accepting C) astroglide
Robocop1051 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I use a rotary tool on most grips, to fit them properly to the .308 frames
washguy Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 http://www.outdoorgearbarn.com/p-21534-magpul-ar15-acs-adaptable-carbine-storage-stock-mil-spec-black.aspx go here for your stock.....I use the acs on most of my 308's they lock down...no wiggle...I like mil spec...get the mil spec buffer tube also...whats another 40 bills? lol :) Wash
shibiwan Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I liked the ACS/ACS-L. It's a really nice stock but I sold it when I switched to the PRS stock.
98Z5V Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 That MOE grip will go on there, OP. Make sure you don't crush your spring(s) whilst putting it on (make sure they're lined up), and tap that thing in place with a rubber mallet. No need to cut or shave anything - it'll go on.
edgecrusher Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 ^^^ what he said, it might be tight so be careful of your spring( don't lose the detent) I too like the acs stick for my carbines, PRS stock for my precision work. Get mil spec. Period. Thicker walls on the tube, especially at the threaded portion
Rsquared Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Don't give me that innocent look! You KNOW what I'm talking about! :bitchslap: Hey! I'm just standing over here minding my own business. <laughs> I think that I'm being wrongfully prosecuted officer. Aren't you retired already? Edited October 31, 2013 by Rsquared
392heminut Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 SOMEBODY has to warn the virgins! Once a cop, always a cop! <lmao>
unforgiven Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 ^^^^^ you crack me up brother Larry.But you know once a bad apple always a bad apple. >:D
Rsquared Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 Hey Hey Hey! No piling on. Who am I kidding...........here it comes. OK all of you degenerates. Get it outta your system already....while I'm still in my defensive crouch.
