      .308 Build

      Just playing around today after installing a Miculek muzzle brake. I checked the gas key to gas tube fit, perfect. I was unable to feel any snagging when easing the bolt carrier forward when the gas key captured the gas tube.

      .308 Build

      308 Build I finally found a barrel nut wrench to fit my two free float handguards I have on hand and the barrel nuts would not align. Rather, they were aligned at the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions when torqued but not at the 12 o’clock position. In other words the radius for the gas port...

      Shimming AR Barrel Extension

      I've glued one build (.22 Rimfire conversion) with high temperature Loctite and shimmed another (DPMS .308) with 0.001" S/S shim material. It didn't take much time for either process and I can see no drawbacks to doing either one. I also don't see any problem if someone doesn't want to do either...

      .308 Build

      I've read many threads on multiple sites so I felt I was prepared for this build. In fact, I still feel I'm prepared. Parts include: DPMS assembled upper, DPMS lower and DPMS lower parts kit. Ballistic Advantage 16.5" barrel and EGW free float forearm. My goal is to have an accurate, mid-level...

      Should a tiny bit of blue locktite be used on this screw? :popcorn:

      school me on AR-15

      I have a .308 lower and of course need a .308 upper but a .338 Federal upper would work great for an Elk rifle.

      Surplus Ammo & Arms Lowers/Uppers

      I noticed that they sell a matched set for a good price. Now I just need to find a dealer to order me a set for a dedicated .22 build.

      Surplus Ammo & Arms Lowers/Uppers

      Has anyone used their uppers/lowers in a build? Is the quality there compared to other middle tier suppliers? :dunno:

      Hello from Johnson County, Greenwood

      I came across this site while doing a search on AR-15 triggers and decided to join. As the title states we live in Greenwood, 8+ years now after moving from Franklin to be closer to my job. I own a variety of firearms but only one complete AR-15, a Bushmaster. I just picked up a DPMS .308 semi...
