    New barrel needed; what to get?

    I'm hoping to get some ideas on where I can get a new barrel for a Bushmaster BR308 (basically LR308). I've had 416 and LW50 stainless barrels on my precision guns. I've also had nitrided/melonited 4150 CMV barrels on my AR and HK builds. What I'm wondering is, does anyone make a nice 4150 CMV...

    gas system compatibility

    I am considering an Armalite rifle length gas system (Super SASS) and gas port on a custom barrel; this rifle will have a DPMS pattern barrel extension, bolt, upper receiver and carrier. I am assuming the carrier key location is the same for both patterns, but wanted to make sure. I am reading...

    308AR resale value?

    Re: 308AR resale value? I'd say its worth less unfired. Mixmaster 308 ARs can be kinda fickle; I'd want to know it runs ok.

    Suppressors Best suppressor for 308 semi auto?

    Re: Best suppressor for 308 semi auto? Is that can hearing safe on a 16" 308? Looks like its not out yet; I googled it and saw some reports of 143DB and that seems very loud.

    Suppressors Best suppressor for 308 semi auto?

    Looking for some advice on my first silencer purchase. It will be going on a 308 AR and doing double duty on a 5.56 AR, so I'm assuming it needs to be tough to handle higher rates of fire. My priorities in order: Accuracy/minimal POI shift DB reduction quality construction/long life minimal...

    My new LMT MWS

    Re: My new LMT MWS Is the weight on these mostly in the barrel? Whats the weight of the rifle with the barrel removed? I'm considering one of these, and I'd like to know if I buy a lighter profile barrel (like the SCAR 17S) that it will come down to something more in the 8-9LB range.
