    AR .308 build advice...

    Re: AR .308 build advice... I'm not a fan of just buying a prebuilt rifle. I like custom built stuff that shoots. LMT doesn't, that I'm aware of, build something like what I want. Stainless barrel, free float tube (NO DAMN QUAD RAILS!!!), no collapsable stock, I've done all that tacticool...

    AR .308 build advice...

    Re: AR .308 build advice... Well, I haven't had the chance to ask this yet, but I know his standard receivers are DPMS pattern. Like I stated in the OP, it takes HK G3/91 mags. I am seriously considering the Krieger barrel and am looking at Geissele triggers. Just was wondering what the...

    Rifle Scopes Acceptable red dot accuracy?

    Re: Acceptable red dot accuracy? I do the same thing with my Aimpoint. Call it a "6 o'clock" hold. Just like with irons, holding underneath allows you to see the whole target and place the aiming point much more precisely.

    AR .308 build advice...

    Ok, I've been looking for an AR type .308 rifle for a while now. Have tried trading for one on here with no luck at all. So now I'm looking at just building one. I found a local shop here, Branch Custom Weaponry, that builds billet uppers and lowers to take G3 mags (around $1/ea from...

    new LR-243 a few ???

    Re: new LR-243 a few ??? AFAIK, all DPMS pattern "AR-10" parts will work. For a trigger, in my mind there's only one game in town for the AR world... Geissele. Not sure on bullet weights, not much of a .243 guy... Good luck and enjoy.

    My First AR (long range rig) w/ pics.

    Re: My First AR (long range rig) w/ pics. I'm 6' and find that I never use the shorter options on my m4 stock. I'm switching to a regular old A2 stock. Need the extra inch in LOP.

    location for gun safe

    Re: location for gun safe I'll be building a new house next summer. Probably gonna be building a vault right in. Have a high end bank vault door built right in. For a safe, I would suggest moving it to the toughest point in the house you can get the delivery men to move it to.

    why not an AK?

    Re: why not an AK? I had the pleasant opportunity to spend a week with a group of Riflemen out at Rolla, ND at a "Riflemen's Boot Camp", we had a 13 yr. old young man by the name of Evan that ran a scoped AK-47. He was laying in sub-2moa groups out to 600 meters with RUSTY surplus and Wolf...

    Competitors: 50 Yard Match?

    Re: Competitors: 50 Yard Match? Why the bipod??? Why not any position you want, NO support. aka, standing, sitting/kneeling, or prone. Encourage the use of slings and REALLY show your skill.

    $720

    Re: $720 Wait... single point sling on a tack driver??? Is this for "tactical" work? Or medium range precision??? For close up, quick, CQB type stuff, you bought the wrong rifle. It'll do it, but it's slower to swing, etc due to the weight. For mid range accuracy, a single point is not...

    AR15 Setup Help...

    Re: AR15 Setup Help... The setup you have (minus the red dot) is plenty capable of making a 500 yd shot. Last week out in ND I was dinging the gong at 600 with a 16" YHM barrel and BUIS, prone unsupported w/sling. If you want better accuracy then you're currently getting and you're POSITIVE...
