GAP10 is a overpriced SP10...change my mind

He wasn’t agree with you moron

No shit Sherlock

My experience with GAP building several AR-10s for me is that they do several things that many other shops don’t have a handle on yet.

1. Barrel work. Starting with a top-tier barrel, they do excellent profiling, matching the gas block to the shoulder, and chambering with an ideal chamber for the particular cartridge and specified projectile ogives. Their gas port sizing is ideal for the cartridge and intended bullets.

2. Bedding the barrel to the upper. Not sure what method they use, but it’s tight.

3. Gas tube alignment

4. Muzzle work is square, concentric, with sharp threads and a superbly-cut crown.

5. Barrel extension and bolt are matched for reliability and accuracy.

6. Several other tweaks that go along with precision-rifle building

The end result for me has been a reliable, super-accurate rifle. This was before the GAP-10 and GAP-10 G2 rifles became a thing.

There is institutional knowledge in that shop about how to make a gas gun run and shoot. They aren’t just slapping parts together.

Do it again and you‘ll be doing it elsewhere.

Troll the bear pit all you want. Stay out of the other forums with troll shit.

Do you really think you got under my skin?

You’re fucking spare parts dude.

50% off bin spare parts or full price spare parts?

New guy is a retread?

 

[UpSideDown]

No, no, the new guy has a point. The GAP-10 is obviously a piece of shit. No one has offered to buy it for a hellaciously low price yet. The proof is in the lack of extortionists.

Scrap pile spare parts.

That just makes you sound like a fag. Your whole OP makes it obvious that you're a fag without a clue. GAP uses a Seekins SP10 receiver set, other than that, no they are not the same fucking rifle and no your button rifled commercial rock creek will not shoot as accurately as a non mass produced barrel done on a cut rifled Bartlein.

Huh, I didn't remember that Rock Creek even made button-rifled barrels, but it appears they do indeed. All the ones I've had or shot were 5R cut-rifled, but they were on custom precision bolt guns. I don't know what they're like nowadays, but after Mike left I drifted over to Kriegers and Bartleins. Didn't want to take the chance with new management.

The gen 1s POFs had them and they were hammers. I think frank said his was among his most accurate ar10s.
