    Small frame AR build thread

    Re: Small frame AR build thread ETA: Knob shown above sticks out about 7/8", and is almost 1/2" in diameter. Anyway, someone asked me in the shoutbox the other day, what barrel I'd be using, which I'd not yet decided. Well, now I've decided: I'm going with a 6.5mm BRX, 20", Krieger...

    Small frame AR build thread

    Re: Small frame AR build thread I was hoping it wouldn't since the < part of the latch would face out when slung, instead of like this >, as seems to be typical. I was thinking I could make a little corner of canvas into a cover that could slip over the latch, to keep it from snagging, but...

    Small frame AR build thread

    Re: Small frame AR build thread Ha, that's a good question. I liked these two parts, which I ordered directly from Phase 5, so I got them both at once. I guess you could say the theme of this build is that it's purely for my amusement. The things that I'm interested in, are load development...

    Small frame AR build thread

    Re: Small frame AR build thread No it does not, not the whole thing at least - from the pictures I saw, I wasn't su re if that was a problem, as it seems to be canted out when installed - will that need to be clearanced or used on a different project? It looks like I might be able to grind a...

    Small frame AR build thread

    Re: Small frame AR build thread It would be, but there isn't a non-radiused edge on the thing, so it's quite comfortable. But I was thinking it would still work with gloves. It gets cold here.

    Small frame AR build thread

    This is my first DIY build. I will hopefully learn, and get the tools I need, as I go along. I have a basic workshop, drill press, torque wrench, hammer, wood screws, JB weld, etc. So I'm only still just collecting parts, in no particular order. I'm also trying to decides on the...

    Spikes Billet or Meag's Billet Set?

    Re: Spikes Billet or Meag's Billet Set? Cutting something in half, and bolting it back together, can actually leave you with a stronger, stiffer part, than if it was all one piece. I'm doing a -15 build with the Mega billet receivers currently. I can't say I regret it in the slightest, in...

    VLTOR Lower receiver.

    Re: VLTOR Lower receiver. The receiver would not be an NFA item. The new line of SBRs they were featured on, would be NFA items.

    I need some help making a decision

    Re: I need some help making a decision With that in mind, I think one of the 6.5mm cartridges makes the most sense. Small or large frame.

    I need some help making a decision

    Re: I need some help making a decision I agree, if you're willing to go to the large frame ARs, 6.5 Creedmore looks like the hot ticket. But assuming you stayed with the -15, have you considered Beowulf? According to AA's figures, the 400g Hawk JSP out of a 24" barrel produces well over 1.5...

    AR vs. AK

    Re: AR vs. AK Recoil is not caused entirely by combustion gasses, nor does it occur, as an absolute statement, entirely after the bullet leaves the barrel.

    NEW Seekins Precision iRMT Uppers & ACRT Rails

    Re: NEW Seekins Precision MR-Monolithic Upper I like the focus on rigidity, and that the rail is 7075 as well as the upper receiver. Here are my ideas for a name (I am pissed that someone else already thought of "modulithic"...I always overestimate my own uniqueness): Seekins Unitary...
