    Pistol vs.SBR - Accidental Build Risk

    I don’t own a single lower that was purchased as a complete rifle, and only one has ever had a rifle length barrel mounted to it. I have a Quarter Circle 10 9mm lower that was built as a pistol years ago with a 10” barrel and Phase 5 foam covered pistol buffer tube , and I researched it back...

    Pistol vs.SBR - Accidental Build Risk

    While reading another thread on building an AR pistol, comments were made about SBRs, and it got me wondering if there is the potential to inadvertently build a weapon that classifies as an SBR when a pistol was the intent. I looked it up and found information defining an SBR as being shorter...

    Quality Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    Yeah, I was surprised that no one recommended that route. But as was stated in the OP, he wants Lapua brass. I bought the Berger ammo. Lou

    Quality Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    Awesome, thanks for the responses guys. I think I’ll go with the Berger ammo since it has Lapua brass, which is what he really wanted. Lou

    Quality Factory 6.5 Creedmoor Ammo

    My buddy just bought a Savage in 6.5 Creedmoor, and is looking for ammo capable of going out to 1200 yards accurately. Berger makes match ammo with a 140 grain hybrid projectile that looks very appealing. He is interested in Lapua brass for reloading, and I don’t know what brass is used for...

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    I actually bought the “Right to Bear” .22 lr kit along with their upper receiver. I asked and they said that their branded product is actually CMMG manufactured equipment. They are not off-spec components. I have been thoroughly satisfied with the fit, finish and performance. The rifle runs...

    Rifle Scopes U.S. optics warranty

    Maggie, I am the original owner of a USO LR-17, and the scope does not have hash marks for either the elevation column or the windage column. Apparently it got out of the factory with these missing. You have no idea of where you are at in your adjustments as a result. Is this a warranty...

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    Absolutely. I’ll let you know. FWIW.....I have a Vudoo with an MTU contour and a 16” JP Precision .22 lr upper, and the JP precision rig is not that far off from the Vudoo. It is a legit sub MOA 10 shot rifle at 50 yards with CCI SV. The 9” upper is a CMMG, and it is a bit behind the JP...

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    I literally just put the 4.5” upper together and have no range time with it as of yet. The 9” is pretty decent, and I run it with a Lupold LPVO. I typically set up a 6” plate at 25 and a 10” Plate at 50 and shoot offhand. It works great for that. I built the 4.5” just to see how it compared...

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    Not that I shoot my .22 lr or 9mm at 200. Those are 25 and 50 yard rigs for me. I was referring to a .223 out to 200.

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    My current inventory of SBR uppers includes a 9” .22 lr, a 4.5” .22 lr and a 10” 9mm. I love them. They are very practical for 200 and in. Lou

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    You describe the exact kind of shooting that I will he doing. I’m not dumping precision shooting entirely though. I just think that this style of shooting would be more fun for the family. I have 4 kids and am trying to keep shooting fun for them. Thanks for the link and advice on chambering...

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    Indeed, I have the pistol lower with a brace configuration. I’m ok in that regard. I appreciate the advice.

    Good info here. Thanks for that.

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    Hmmm......not a bad idea actually. The only thing keeping me from doing that would be that I want a 16” upper as well. The sunk cost plus the machine cost would add up to one expensive barrel for sure.

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    And no, I didn’t see the post “where are all the 11.5” ar barrels” before posting this. My apologies to those offended when this occurs. I’m still interested in people’s opinions on the subject.

    I think that I want an 11.5” AR pistol

    So, I have been shooting precision rifle rigs for the last several years and feel like I want to do some simple, practical shooting to break the monotony. I have a 16” barreled upper receiver for my AR, but I think that I want something more compact and maneuverable. I have a 9” CMMG .22 lr...

    Rifle Scopes 30mm QD mount with 3.75" outer ring spread, does it even exist?

    I just went through this exercise attempting to mount my USO LR-17 on an AR. I ended up with a Badger Unimount cantilever one-piece mount. It has the spacing to accommodate the huge elevation/parallax housing on USOs. It isn’t QD, however. Lou
