    What is the Lapping Tool of choice for Large Frame AR upper receivers?

    Because every company puts out a lemon once in a while. Even a CNC monkey works on some Mondays or sometimes has a morning spat with his boyfriend. Those two brands of receivers are forged, not excreted extruded to a perfectly rectangular turd billet as a starting point. This is the biggest...

    What is the Lapping Tool of choice for Large Frame AR upper receivers?

    Companies that have them: That AERO M5-E1 dangler seems to be missing its German helmet! PTG's cooked to order, not before. Great company. Here's another one. Looks like a Tipton to me. I have 4 Aero Precision and 2 ARMALITE large frame upper receivers that I've been thinking of lapping...

    What is the Large Frame {Non-ARMALITE} AR mag of choice at this time.

    Asking what spoon to use when feeding my Aero Precision 6.5CM. As always, thanks to those that know. I sure don't.

    What would you do with your money? It's not a question of what I'm going to use it for and all the variables... It's just two scopes that are similar on paper and cost. I guess I am asking about quality of glass and construction. I do remember when Frank gave a positive nod to the original...

    Large frame accuracy

    You're doing it wrong. All wrong. And it doesn't take the integral of f(x) by separation of parts to figure this out.

    Armalite AR-10 Lower compatibility

    No. Simple as that. Kinda... It is not the Gen 1 vs Gen 2 issue. It is the B model (ORIGINAL DESIGN from 1996) vs the A model (NEWER VERSION). The A model ARMALITE rifles use the 1950's ARMALITE mags, KAC, PMAG, LARUE TACTICAL yada...

    AR's that Kick- 450 Bush Master, 458 SoCom and 50 Beowulf

    TROMIX AND WILSON COMBAT have teamed up for the 375 SOCOM. My first two 458S complete uppers are from 2002 by Marty, owner of Teppo Jutsu. In the last two years I have purchased a 458S and 375S barrel/bolt combo with gages by TROMIX. He's very easy to talk to over the phone. Reloading is the...

    Knight's Armament SR25 vs LMT 308

    Just askin', sir. Who/Whom beat KAC (and the rest) as the best rifle in trials BUTT!!! lost the contract for the M110 due to cost increases to the weapon system to cover expenses to meet the production plant security requirements per DOD Code WTF? I remember: ARMALITE.
