6132expert Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Some of you may or may not remember, but a few YEARS ago I done a build and today was the first time I fired it.

blue109 Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 sure it needs a barrel swap? not just some more trigger time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darb Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Some of you may or may not remember, but a few YEARS ago I done a build and today was the first time I fired it. It ran flawlessly even though I was all over the paper. I will be doi g a barrel swap real soon. you are making me feel better, only a year for me. What do you have for sights, optics and trigger? All over the paper? how many rounds did you run through it? Just asking. <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted September 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 The barrel now has about 90 rounds through it. I put put 40 down the pipe. No sights yet but used a cheap bone collector optics 3x9x40 600BDC. It has the 16 inch dpms carbine barrel with a si defense upper, troy free float, DMR Trigger ( I Fing love ) DPMS lower ACS stock which I may look into FAB Defence. I think I am going to look at barrel options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6132expert Posted September 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Thanks but I need to finish it. I have my hands in to much other stuff..like kids and wife. I have however bought my Tundra and paid cash for it and my wife Avalon. Bought a few nice side arms and started another 5.56 build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rsquared Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Muzzle device? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 ^^^ Yep, might perform better with something on the end of it. Might also be the loose nut that's right behind the trigger. It's happened before. Haven't shot in a year... I'm just sayin'... <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted September 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Lol...no this nut has shot in the past year and it quit well at it. No I have not place a muzzle device on the end yet and it is a one shot at a time rifle. It's like I fire and the rifle jumps 12 inches left or right. I have a few things going on with other stuff but I will get a break when I order a new barrel. Probably after this 5.56 piston build Im into and after I get my Sig TacOps 1911. Then it will be new barrel, break, and bipod. Then I am setting up my reload room. I have been collecting equipment and components for some time now grabbing up everything I can when I find good deals.

EasyEJL Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 which particular 16" barrel is it on there? I might be interested in trading off a Ranier Select in 20" for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Not real sure but it is one of two. Either the Orical or Sportical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyEJL Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 the only downside to my barrel is that its been duracoated FDE. but i'd be interested. shoots sub moa in my setup, and I suck as an operator :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 I dont know man. I might be out to just sell it as to trade. You had any dealings with anyone on this page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjajimmy Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Didn't we just go through this ? <laughs> Yep. Make sure you're running the gun correctly. I made the same mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 What is the round count on that 20 inch and yes my brother edgecrusher that was my concern. I have not been in here for some time now and I don't know who is gtg and who isn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Well if its not the nut behind the trigger , it could be something else is going on . Not to say DPMS never put out a bad barrel , but they are usually good shooters . Could be the barrel nut a little loose , scope mount or rings loose , could be the Barrel/chamber doesn't like the ammo . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
