    9mm AR uppers?

    Not sure I'm following your line of thinking here... There is no way to hold the considerably smaller 9mm magazine in place without either: a) a dedicated magwell lower (RRA, CMMG, DDLE and others have made 9mm lowers with a specific 9mm ONLY magwell for use with Colt pattern...even Glock...

    My concerns about NFA firearms - where am I wrong?

    You can call it what you will, but ultimately, when you are asking for interpretations/applications of federal law and the ramifications of same in a particular setting...you are seeking legal advice. All I'm saying is that regardless of what you may receive in terms of information herein...

    My concerns about NFA firearms - where am I wrong?

    You are seeking "legal" advice/opinions on an Internet forum...HUGE MISTAKE #1! While I certainly can understand your reservations/concerns, if you have in fact spoken with an attorney (or attorneys) familiar with NFA matters and they don't have any definitive answers for you or at least...

    Buying a 308 gas gun

    If you want a 7mm-08, you will have to build or scour the interweb until you find one in an Armalite pattern (whether a complete rifle or at least a complete upper). The only company that I'm aware of that is making current production 7mm-08 rifles is Remington in their R-25 lineup (a rebranded...

    sniper rifle question

    Post some pics of your rifle and the serials/areas in question, please. A thread like this is fairly worthless without something to behold in terms of the rifle/mount itself as we are all just guessing/speculating as to what you may (or may not) have in your possession. Even with photos, it...

    Buying a 308 gas gun

    The Armalite takes MODIFIED M1A mags or their new Gen 2 mags (based on the M1A mag body somewhat with revisions throughout). The modded M1A mag came about during the Clinton AWB when you were stuck with either finding "pre-ban" normal capacity mags or being forced to use new production of not...

    Thinking of a .308 Semi auto to make a DMR/ SASS

    1) PRVI Partisan "Match" ammo is SHITE!!! It really shouldn't be called "match" ammo as it is ridiculously inconsistent and, in my own experience, with rifles capable of being easily sub-MOA, yielded results nearing 2MOA thanks to overcharges/undercharges/wild variations in COAL/etc. Alas...

    Buying a 308 gas gun

    Nothing whatsoever wrong with the 7mm-08. Most of the companies, Armalite included, that made 7mm-08 rifles/uppers/parts for a while have gotten out of the market because of the relative lack of demand (at least compared to other calibers like the venerable .308/7.62 and the 6.5CM to name a...

    Thinking of a .308 Semi auto to make a DMR/ SASS

    Couple issues... 1) is it 1MOA or 1.75MOA with "match ammo" (and what ammo is that specifically)? I only ask because there's a big difference between a rifle shooting 1MOA and nearly 2x that. 3MOA with your average surplus ball is about right...2-3MOA is probably about average. 2) how...

    light contour?

    The JP "light" contour for .308/7.62 tubes are 0.750" under the handguards and at the journal, then 0.740" to the muzzle (its basically a straight 0.75" from just in front of the chamber to the muzzle). Their "medium" contour is the same under the handguards, but opens up to 0.936" at the...

    Buying a 308 gas gun

    For pure accuracy (on a reasonable cost basis) there really isn't anything that can touch the large-frame ARs in terms of semi-auto rifles/carbines (at least at present time). As for a budget increase to $2500...that opens up a TON of options for you, including building just about anything you...

    Help with AR scope mount

    In my experience, and without one in front of me to confirm/refute at the moment, the WOA riser rail is approx. 0.425" tall (receiver rail top to riser rail top...roughly the same height as the Badger riser). Combine that with a set of Seekins low rings which we were talking about in another...

    Buying a 308 gas gun

    You won't likely find anywhere near the levels of what you probably deem "acceptable" accuracy with the PTR-91 series and with only a ~$1500 budget...not likely the M1A either. With high quality ammo, most PTRs in their basic config (not counting the MSG/SS upgraded rifles that are out of your...

    Carbon fiber pistol grips

    While I have said many times that ounces on any AR quickly add up to pounds...you won't really find a huge variance in grip weights (aside from comparing large grips with palm shelves, heavy overmolding, etc. to something like a basic A2). You'll be far better served to look for weight savings...

    Help with AR scope mount

    I have used the combination of the Badger 22MOA Riser and the Seekins rings on several rifles will excellent results. Provided you don't want/need QD, it is a great setup. Once everything is mounted up and torqued down solid, its more or less a 1pc mount anyway in my experience. Its also...

    Gunsmithing HK G3 match grade barrel

    You should be happy! A ~1/2MOA PTR-91...hell...with luck like that in your corner you should be out buying a PowerBall ticket this instant and upon winning later this week, retiring to somewhere sunny with your own private shooting range and a range bunny to carry all your gear/ammo for you...
