    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 10mm......Woods and Carry Comapanion.

    Most of the time when I hike and fish here in Alaska, the Marlin 1895 SBL is out front to defend against large predators. It holds 6 rounds of .458 cal 45-70, is stainless and laminate making it nearly impervious to rain and temperature changes, has XS ghost ring sights, and a large lever for...

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    Well. Good for you! I do not see the charging handle out in the pics but I believe you. Thanks for the pics. Again, you are the first and only one I know of. Which LAR8 do you own? How old? Mine is brand new and i had to use the spacer. Good Luck. What kind of accuracy are you getting...

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    Great. I have no idea why though. The overwhelming majority (as in you are the only exception I know of) cannot operate the charging handle on the stock Rock River Arms LAR8 with the stock Magpul PRS while the cheek weld on the PRS is raised. Rock River says no. Magpul says no. The RRA and...

    My SASSy Girl: RRA LAR-8 Range Report

    The machine screw that holds my A2 stock onto my LAR8 came with a "vented" screw from Rock River. There is a hole through the middle of the screw measuring .080 (eighty thousands). This hole is to allow water or excess oil to be ejected from the buffer tube to prevent a hydraulic lock in the...

    Good muzzle brake for 308

    JP Enterprises out of Minnesota. They have the "Recoil Eliminator" which has love-it-or-hate-it-looks but is super effective and the more traditional looking brakes for all barrel sizes that also work very well. I am putting one on my 308 to hopefully spot misses through the scope.

    Bye Bye Bi-pod, Hello Mega-Benchbag!!!

    I believe that is obvious. But its not an old thread for me as I was searching for specific info regardless of the date. As for my opinion of you, there are people on here looking for good info and giving good info........and there are others like you. Also, there is no statute of...

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    less than 10$ shipped. I have regular and stainless. Let me know. Good luck. Shoot your rifle but if you are any bigger than my 5th grader....you should be fine with a 1" extender. Good luck.

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    The PRS is designed to fit rifles with A2 rifle length buffer tubes. Swapping tubes/ springs is only necessary for weapons not equipped with the A2 rifle length buffer tube. Call Rock River Arms to verify. If the LAR8 in question has a rifle length buffer tube, the PRS will bolt right on with...

    Marks on Brass--What are they? Is it OK?

    Thanks......relatively new gun for me. Semi-Auto 308 that is. It runs great just was not sure about those marks. Going to try the soft bit on the deflector.

    308 rifle options

    The RRA LAR8 varmint guns are consistently shooting sub-MOA. Like mine so far. Rock River is nice to deal with and helpful with any problems although I have had only one small one in 3 weapons. I have the Varmint A4 LAR8 w/ 26" SS Cryo-Treated Bull Barrel. It is long.......and heavy....i bet...

    Marks on Brass--What are they? Is it OK?

    Thanks for the help all. I have a RRA LAR8 which functions perfectly on lots of different ammo and is very accurate. Just wanted to know if any of you with more experience can help me identify the marks at the neck and the single hash mark half way up the brass and is it something i need to...

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    Here is the Rock River Arms LAR8 A4 Varmint w/ 26" Cryo-treated barrel. Also the Falcon ERGO grip with palmshelf and Magpul PRS. The DPMS 1" Extender is evident directly in front of the PRS.

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    I took a handful of hardened machine screws of the proper length and thread to a local machine shop today. They did a beautiful job venting the screws with a .080 hole. Took the rifle directly to the range and put 60 rounds through without a hitch. The ERGO grip remained tight as did the...

    Rock River Arms LAR8 + Magpul PRS Mystery Revealed.

    Thanks for the reply ORD. It is an old issue with a lot of confusing and contradictory information out there in bits and pieces so I did a lot of researching and reading before posting. I am trying to put researched info all in one place for other shooters. Many (not you) are still confused...

    Who here has given up....

    My kids love to shoot the AR15. It makes a big boom and has almost no recoil. I have a place to shoot 1000 yds and so have begun enjoying local competitions of various types with a RRA LAR8 (.308) AR10 type rifle. It is the Varmint A4 with the 26" cryo-treated SS heavy Wilson barrel. I guess...
