    308 AR10 Build Info/Picture Thread

    It's a JL Billet 308/AR10 15" Angle Cut M-Lok Handguard Low Profile. They also make a high profile to match uppers that require it. I was planning on going with their 17.2" model but wasn't sure if I would then have issues accessing the gas block.

    308 AR10 Build Info/Picture Thread

    I've been wondering how much impact does the gas block clearance really has. It's been common practice on bolt actions to check free float by running a dollar between the barrel and the stock. It makes me think now if such clearance is really not sufficient.

    AR stock other than PRS?

    Took a bit of bending to get the cheekpiece wide enough to fit but it was really easy. I did the same thing on my rem700 with a HS-Precision stock.

    Wise to go all out for first rifle? (FN SPR A1 vs. AI AT)

    Another question I'd ask if I was in your shoes is the actual purpose planned for this rifle. Some people want a "do-it all" solution when making their first purchase (e.g. hunting+plinking+hitting steel at 1k yds + f-class + tactical-shooting + home defense... well you get me). Since you...

    This is a great DIY idea! Thanks for posting. Here's my shot on my little rascal's Savage rascal.

    PIG Skins Barricade Pad is here...

    Dang I missed the promo boat! was trying to get the measurement on my HS-P stock to order the right size. These look very interesting.

    NEW from XLR Industries **ELEMENT CHASSIS**

    Man that color looks nice! Is that cerakoted? Who did the job (looks like they even painted below the cheekweld foam; how'd you do that)?

    Which 223/5.56 round safe for steel target life span?

    So I finally got into the ar15 band-wagon and went to the local store to get some ammo for the weekend outing. I ended up buying American Eagle 5.56 62Gn FMJ XM855 LPC120 green tip (they didn't have much variety). Sadly I wasn't aware of the possible effect these were causing to my steel targets...

    D.I.Y. Rear Bags

    Here was my shot at it. I needed something more robust than 1000 denier though for my aggressive tactical skills, so I went with and old pair of swimming trunks (brown side) and one my dog's chewed up pillow (tan side). The wedge bag has the hard poly beads, the square one has the foam-like...

    Rifle Scopes scope is sitting a little too low for comfort

    I had the same issue with my scope and base (although I didn't try torquing the hell out of it :) ). If the base is aluminum you can easily cut it with a mini hack saw (easier to control than a dremel) Husky 6 in. Junior Hacksaw-122JHSC at The Home Depot I covered all areas of the base were I...

    KRG New Products 2014

    I noticed a similar bolt lift design at MDT's webpage. Are those made by KRG too? Are there any major differences?

    My hunting sling with a few perks

    Thanks! I'd say around 48 dollars including shipping and enough material for 2 slings. You can easily make it for substantially less if you get your dimensions right and try to keep the purchase from one vendor to save on shipping. I had drawn a mock-up of how I wanted it to function but didn't...

    My hunting sling with a few perks

    I used my wife's little cheap sewing machine (she gave me a crash course on how to set it up) and heavy thread from Joanns (was a bit more expensive but gives you peace of mind). Coats Outdoor 200Yd Buff at Joann.com For this kind of material though, a more heavy-duty sewing machine would...

    My hunting sling with a few perks

    So I finally tested it this past weekend and can say I'm pretty happy with how it worked. I did find a couple of things I need to address. One is reducing the length of the sling so that the quick adjust doesn't bottom out before it achieves good tension. This was more pronounced when shooting...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell AR optics 1-4x24 experience?

    So I got a chance to run my 1-4 bushnell btr this past weekend. I gotta say I was a bit disappointed with image clarity. The reticle was very defined and personally I didn't had any problems acquiring it but for some reason my eyes could not get to have both reticle and target in focus. It was a...
