    KAK products

    I have bought all sorts of "small" parts from them ( 308 Buffers , K-Spec buffers, Downward Vent BCG's ( just ordered a 308 one ) I have been happy with all of it. I also got one of their complete uppers a few weeks ago, the handguard was quite rigid to me ( I didn't notice anything about the...

    308 AR Information/Advice

    As far as the PSA lower.... they only can use PSA uppers. Proprietary parts.. lack of a MilSpec guideline for LFAR's...etc. FWIW, most all 308/6.5CM LFAR barrels tend to be over gassed, so plan on using a Adj. GB. I would suggest buying a complete PSA upper, trying it out, and then if needed...

    Sooo... Any good 2024 Black Friday deals we should be keeping an eye out for?

    I just noticed the shipping cost for my order... it is about twice as much as is common. Given the cost on the ammo, far less then Midway shows, at least now I am willing to buy some to try.

    Chrome Lined or QPQ HBAR 5.56 Barrel

    No offense intended, but BA's accuracy guarantee sucks , and while they will honor their guarantee, your time matters. Myself I would try the CL'd 16", apply as many easy to do assm. accuracy tricks as you can. And the if the CL'd doesn't met your expectations, buy another upper ( Black Friday...

    What 10.3/10.5 300 Blackout barrel would you choose? Would you put money into it?

    I prefer to have as much precision as practical ( $ ) . So , for myself, I would buy a "better" barrel.

    Specific recommendations for 5 round magazine for DPMS series 10 in 6.5 mm Creedmoore

    FWIW... you might check the "height" of the various inserted magazines into the separated lower ( from the upper ) And since DPMS is now run / owned by PSA / JJE... consider buying a spare mag catch, in case your is "out of spec" and not "allowing" the mag to sit high enough. And on a side...

    TMAG

    And I did ! ( lol ) For the OP, if you are just starting to "hoard" magazines... I'd buy some.... but Gen 3 w/ windows are darned good.

    SOLGW Precision barrels

    Is the 308 barrel with 3 groove polygonal rifling, 1: 9.73″ twist, a BlackHole Weaponry barrel or not ? I still haven't seen any legit confirmation.

    First AR10/LR308 build.. Barrel questions

    I also would recommend a Criterion Barrel. I know Faxon tries to produce a great barrel... but I just don't ever see a lot of people showing off their groups from one.... ever. And given the cost of ammo... the OP might spend quite a bit on ammo trying to make that Faxon shoot to their...

    KAK 1n5 twist 11.5" v. 1n7 twist 11.5" , both suppressor ready, .076 GP.

    FWIW... this guy has already tried one. No bullets spinning apart, and "clear Gel" tests included w/ 77gr OTMs. He beat me to the "punch".

    5.56 accuracy

    Sub MOA in a AR platform, is considered danged good. In the spirit of economy I would suggest you give your current barrel a good cleaning , and try some more ammo brands. PSA AAC ammo is a bargain right now. And ADI .223 69gr SMK has always been a consistent less expensive round. As for the...
