    Suppressors SAS Arbiter owners

    Maybe I'm an outlier, but my Ti Arbiter opens my groups up. I've tried it on a variety of rifles and it pretty much always is the same. It was one of the earliest Ti models and When I first go it, it was filled with chips. Recently I tried it on an AR-10 and the groups opened up from .8moa to...

    Rimfire Rifle Photos Thread

    Most fun I've had with a 22lr. CMMG 4.5" barrel with my SWR Spectre can and a Sig armbrace on a pistol lower. Subsonic with bulk pack. [/URL]

    My First AR10 Build

    Recently I got a rainier match barrel and it just didn't shoot. Like 2.5moa no matter what I did. Be sure to try yours out before the 60 days are up. I paid a little more and went for the ultra match. My GF dropped the ultra match on the ground.... But it still shoots sub MOA.

    Which .308 Bullets for 1,000 yds in a 20 inch AR-10 will work best???????????

    24" barrel here. AR-10T. My load is 175gr SMK, 44.6gr Varget, Lapua brass, plain CCI LR primer. I think I have the bullet seated pretty far out. I've read that the OAL of the AR-10 mag might be longer than certain DPMS pattern mags. I get 2690ft/s and it does pretty darn good out to 950yds...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Trying to decide HK USP or SIG TACOPS

    What are you guys smoking here? The HK USP isn't all that great. Thought I shot a .40 Tactical which I liked, nearly every othe USP I tried (and the one I owned) were clunky and slow to shoot. Bore axis is too high and the trigger is just too damn long. Also the trigger face is curved way too...

    Rifle Scopes Top Shelf Glass

    Re: Top Shelf Glass I think at a certain point it ends up like high end stereo equipment. Diminishing returns. Well at least in regards to clarity. There are other optical benefits that some scopes might have which won't be obvious without extensive use, The difference between my NF and...

    One piece at a time.....

    Re: One piece at a time..... Ahh. I see. Well, nice build. I hope you find all the rest of the parts soon. Just curious, which type of barrel is it? DPMS barrel extension? I've boon wanting one of rainier arms match barrels for a while, but it would be for an Armalite AR10 instead. They...

    One piece at a time.....

    Re: One piece at a time..... What's with the strange step down behind the muzzle brake? It looks almost like its just threaded on a few tuns.

    MK12 vs SPR Variant

    Re: MK12 vs SPR Variant The spr barrel contour and the ops inc 12th model are awesome. You could do what I did and use those components and custom tailor everything else to your needs. That's what I did.

    AR technical questions

    Re: AR technical questions A buddy of mine has a post 1994 ban era Colt match target. It has large trigger pin holes, the sear block and the large front takedown hole that uses the pin that is captured by a screw. Sounds next to identical to yours. His has a 20" Hbar with a bare muzzle...

    AR technical questions

    Re: AR technical questions You can also get a flattop upper with the big front hole. https://danieldefense.com/big-hole-upper-receiver-assembly-b.html And you can get rid of the screw in the front and use a detent style from KNS. (only useful when used in conjunction with the bighole...

    Threaded barrel vs post-ban

    Re: Threaded barrel vs post-ban I prefer threads. The barrel becomes much more versatile with threads. Muzzle brake can help with and undisturbed sight picture while shooting. Flash suppressor can help with vision when shooting in poor/low lighting. Sound suppressors help with overall...

    question on 1:8 twist AR bull barrel & reloading

    Re: question on 1:8 twist AR bull barrel & reloading Nice sticks. I've got a long bbl on my .308 AR. It's one of the old AR-10T's which had a 22" barrel. (or maybe it's 24") Anyway, it's really long and heavy, but since it shoots so darn well, I couldn't see changing it. Otherwise I think...
