    Gunsmithing RRA Lar 8 barrel nut

    Does anybody know who makes a free float hand guard with a barrel nut for a RRA LAR 8. I know DD makes one but I was wondering if that was the only option. Thank you for any advice you can give.

    Gunsmithing AR10 Barrel Nut

    Is there a difference between the AR10 barrel nut and the SASS/AR10T barrel nut? If so, what else would change as far as a build would go? It would be going on an Armalite AR10 stripped upper. I searched through previous topics, but I couldn't find anything on the subject.

    Since i spend so much time here, I noticed that everyone mounts their rings so that the screws (seekins) or hex nuts (everyone else) are on the right side of the rifle. So, thats how I mounted mine and figured, those hide guys know more than I. Anyway, I was at a friend's house yesterday and...
