    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy started my AR308 build on April 2nd of this year by purchasing a MA-TEN receiver set, and almost everything is in. This scope will be one of the final pieces to the build, and I'm glad I got in on the first order.

    Re: Heads up: Bushnell Excursion Group Buy! Interested in price. Just got all the parts for my long range rig and have been looking for a scope I can use at both the range and hunting/outdoors.

    Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley?

    Re: Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley? I wonder where the OP of that thread got his SJC Titan parkerized at. It'd be a no brainer at that point. I'm even reading the blued finish isn't bad when exposed to the elements. Edit: Ah, Noveske themselves parkerized it upon having it...

    Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley?

    Re: Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley? I remember seeing the thread- he received the complete rifle from Noveske and I believe the finish of the comp had rust on it.

    Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley?

    Re: Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley? Good to hear. Looks like I'll be placing my order there soon. Just want to mock up the barrel first. If anybody wants to chime in on the JP Cooley brake, or the SJC Titan for that matter, it would be appreciated.

    Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley?

    Re: Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley? Not a fan of the stainless finish. Where did you pick up your brake (in blued finish) at? I've only been able to find one source, here: http://www.cpwsa.com/s_&_j_customs.htm Anybody know if this vendor is GTG? Can anybody confirm the OD of...

    Build almost done - SJC Titan or JP Cooley?

    Hey there, not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this, but I've been weighing out the pros/cons of each and I'd like to hear some input, perhaps from owners of said muzzle devices. Originally I wanted to go with the JP Cooley, .875 OD w/ .350 exit, in a black parkerized (or at least...

    Scope base choice for .308 AR-10t

    Re: Scope base choice for .308 AR-10t I'm in the same boat as you. Pretty close to finishing my Ma-Ten build and I bought the 5-20x50 HD SWFA SS, and unsure of which mount to use. I decided that I won't likely need a canted mount, but I won't be absolutely sure w/o trying it IRL. I have a...

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy Probably a non-issue, but I'll be moving from the location specified on the order at the end of August. But I'm sure the scope will be in long before that!

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG Another thought I was juggling in my mind is barrel length. I'll be attaching a JP brake at the end of the barrel, and it'll add about an inch or so to the barrel length. Makes me wonder if I should go with my original 24", or step it...

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG Looks like White Oak Precision has Krieger match barrels (or their blanks?) that they turn in house. I'll have to look into this further.

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG I was under the impression that all the Ma-Ten receiver sets were the older "high profile" style. I dug through the arfcom thread and saw it mentioned a few times, though I didn't do any actual physical comparison aside from eyeballing...

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG I see that Rainier has both extensions available, with a UltraMatch 24", threaded...though not fluted nor does it have a black finish. I may settle, but I'm determined to find a source that'll make a decently priced barrel in the fashion...

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG Casey Simpson - that sounds really familiar and may be what I had been referring to earlier in the thread. Good to hear some positive technical input about the Armalite bolts.

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG Caelumatra - very informative post, and thanks for sharing all that info! I've learned that Armalite AR-10 BCG's aren't hard to find at all. About the bolt differences- it was either in the big Ma-Ten thread on arfcom or a calguns...

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    Re: .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG I'll try to find the thread, but I believe it was on arfcom in the Ma-Ten build thread. I can't be completely sure, though. I was lead to believe that finding an Armalite BCG is fairly difficult. I see that Rainier stocks this item...

    .308 AR Platform - DPMS vs. Armalite regarding BCG

    In the midst of my build, I'm facing a few questions, primarily concerning the BCG. The DPMS style bolts are clearly more popular and available, while Armalite BCG's are like finding a needle in a haystack. My concern is not only for the time being, but in the future when I may need to source...
