    Rifle Scopes weaver 4x20x50 tactical

    Re: weaver 4x20x50 tactical Just a heads up...I saw on another thread that they have a new 4-20 that will be coming out soon that is mil/mil if that is any interest to you. If you're in no hurry it might be worth waiting for although it does not have your preferred reticle. Im kinda with...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Comparison

    Re: 1911 Comparison +1 on the Dan Wesson. They make an all stainless "Heritage" that is right around your price range and is a fine pistol. Fantastic fit, no MIM parts, wonderful quality. Just food for thought. Between the two in your OP I would suggest the Kimber. However, the PRO is...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD

    Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD To SWFA: You guys rock. This looks like everything I've been looking for in a scope for my 308 build. Was considering the 4-16PST or the new Weaver, but if thats the expected price Im willing to wait and spend a little extra on this. Always been a pleasure...

    AR-15 upper

    Re: AR-15 upper Wow. I'll have to agree with the Punisher on this one and wonder why. Have you even looked at the two rifles? Could you possibly mean the Sig 516??? For one thing, you state that all the action resides in the upper. This is not the case on...pretty much every rifle of the...

    DPMS LR upper source

    Re: DPMS LR upper source Troy seems to be on top of it. They have a pretty decent explanation on their site. Download the PDF on the link below and it is pretty straightforward. Found out I have the new upper receiver height. Lucky me. Hope this helps...

    AR mounts for scopes

    Re: AR mounts for scopes Check out American Defense as well. I have a couple of their mounts and they are outstanding. Very solid and have never had one loosen up. I have both the scout and the recon. IMO the second QD lever on the recon is just there for piece of mind. The scout is just...

    Tactical Weapons Solutions AR 10 ?

    Re: Tactical Weapons Solutions AR 10 ? I've never heard of this company, but its cool to see somebody making an AR pattern 308 using a Douglas barrel. They make good stuff. Unfortunately Douglas doesn't make AR barrels so they must be turning and chambering a Douglas blank themselves.

    Troy 13.8 forend

    Re: Troy 13.8 forend Okay, so I measured and I guess I have one of the 'new' shorter rail A3 upper receivers from DPMS. Is this just a DPMS-Troy issue or is any rail I buy (DD, PRI, etc.) going to have the same alignment issue? Seems like if its DPMS thats has changed the dimensions of...

    DPMS SASS stock question

    Re: DPMS SASS stock question Is this for a 308 or 223 SASS? Because if its for the 308 you should make sure its a 308 specific PRS. The 308 model has a shorter cheek piece so that wont interfere with the charging handle.

    Best Picatinny Riser for DPMS LRT-SASS

    Re: Best Picatinny Riser for DPMS LRT-SASS HA! ORD beat me to it! Check out the "Mounts, Rings and Bases" section on SWFA (link below) ARMS makes several mounts that would likely suit your needs. The ARMS #5 will get you 3/4" of rise. If you plan on detaching the scope frequently I...

    which AR-15 barrel

    Re: which AR-15 barrel Depending on what you want to spend you have a lot of options. POF uses Rock Creek Barrels. Do you want just a new barrel or is your goal to build a second upper to swap for hunting?

    bushnell trophy t dot

    Re: bushnell trophy t dot Its a decent red dot. I have one on a flat top for short range plinking. Its alright for 100yds but I probably wouldn't use it much past that distance. Only reason being that due to the length of the scope it has a bit of tunnel vision. It seems well built and...

    douglas

    Re: douglas My father is actually good friends with the owner. They do make a very nice barrel. Im actually in the process of building a DPMS Ar10 variant. However, Douglas has unfortunately left the scope of barrel manufacturers Im considering. May I ask why you want to go Douglas? No...

    C-Products .308 Magazine

    Re: C-Products .308 Magazine I bought 2 of the 20 rounders (308)last year when I was in the early stages of building my Lr-308 (still in process). The mags I have are way too tall when locked in place, so much that they don't allow the bolt to fully close. I may be able to bend the lips...

    JSE Surplus Upper GTG.

    Re: JSE Surplus Upper GTG. I bought a complete rifle from them at a gun show several years back. I believe they build their uppers from Del-Ton kits. If your barrel is marked "DTI" thats it. Mine is on a DPMS lower though. I can notice a big difference in finish quality between the upper...

    Changing the barrel on a DPMS SASS upper?

    Re: Changing the barrel on a DPMS SASS upper? It should be pretty simple as long as you have the right tools. Just know that the SASS barrel has a different size gas port (its slightly larger) so your bud will need the tube and gas block as well. I assume you had planned on doing this...

    Changing the barrel on a DPMS SASS upper?

    Re: Changing the barrel on a DPMS SASS upper? They do have a different size barrel nut for the 308 platform. Would probably be best to have the correct wrench and avoid any damage to the receiver trying to monkey it off another way. Out of curiosity...why the barrel switch? Are you...

    Weaver Bipod

    Re: Weaver Bipod http://www.weaveroptics.com/accessories/tactical/precisiontacticalbipod.aspx Weaver says they're 'Made in USA'. I was considering one of these for Lr308 build I am in the middle of. May be worth it to spend the extra $30-40 and go for the GG&G though. Midway is asking...
