What model is this? GLWS

Any differences in buffers, springs, etc., when making the switch? Things to be aware of regarding gas port size? @LRRPF52 is a huge fan of short barrels. FWIW, sir, your approach of one caliber has great appeal, even though I'll always have a few others for reasons. Alexander Arms needs...

Wisdom here. Do NOT buy one of these (AK - not Zastava), unless you want to PM me and buy mine. For way more than it's worth. Not sure what the brand is, but I've owned two and neither one blew my skirt up. Kalashnikov was way smarter than I am but he ain't Stoner. If you've absolutely got...

Whose magazines do you all recommend? Magpul, ASC (works well for me in 223), C products, and slander are what I've found. TIA

Looking the part is definitely important. I think if I copy your rifle, but in 6.5cm, I won't look out of place if I'm wearing skinny jeans when I shoot.

Do you mind sharing what you did to piece it together? Did you take it all apart and then reassemble with loc tight, proper torques, etc? Nice job. Glad it's working out. God bless America

Gents, thank you for your replies. @longshot2000, I'll give LaRue a call and ask for John. Solid logic all the way around. @bigjake83 I have the standard bolt and firing pin. The primers look a little cratered to me - ammo dependent. Hornady TAP and some cheaper options do this whereas...

Gents, I'd lie to replace my large frame OBR bolt with a HP bolt and reduced diameter firing pin. LaRue offers this, but you have to buy their spare parts kit for 350 ish and change and I'd really just like a new bolt and firing pin. Reading on JP's website I don't think theirs will work with...

I'm wanting to get my wife something in .243 for Christmas. Is there a length of pull difference in the compact model vs. others or is it only the barrel length? Thanks, God bless America

CSM, I am a knuckle dragger. Thinking hurts my brain. Does that indicate I need to practice it more? In all seriousness, I have Sun Tzu, Clausewitz, Napoleon's Maxims, Musashi, etc. If I could implement 1/100'th of what they know..... To all the replies, thank you and I will investigate...

All, I've got two kids who love this game. Please recommend a book that covers the basics and some basic strategies. White belt level chess is the aim, for now. If not a book, then a link. Obviously I can google basic chess, but the hide has never steered me wrong so I am asking the...

You're putting burdens on yourself that are not yours to bear. You're an American. You're a man. You're an LE sniper. Heck, you've earned having an AI in the safe, especially if you used it for Uncle Sugar. If that's not enough (and I'm only joking a little here) you have a duty to pass on...

@TonyTheTiger you're as bad as the other enabler. I thought I was at the pinnacle of small arms technology with a carbine length M4 until you started posting your experiences in other threads. Longer component life, reduced split times, easier on brass - and the price is a little bit of...

You're an enabler. But thanks for the tip.
