    V seven Rifles?

    What barrels do you typically use? How much does that gun weigh, do you have any idea?

    What AR bulk ammo (M193) and twist rate for SHTF gun?

    1000% percent agree with all that. But it does zip right through level 3 armor like a hot knife through butter. After spending lots of time in gun stores where the rep is telling them to get level 4 plates they opt for level 3 because no one will have green tip or AP rounds. Because of this I...

    What AR bulk ammo (M193) and twist rate for SHTF gun?

    I think for SHTF you would probably be better off with a case of M855. You can get better accuracy out of a good flavor or M193 but the armor defeating capabilities of M855 makes me lean that way. Or maybe do a 1/2 and 1/2 - 500 rounds M855 and 500 round M193. Your gtg with 1:7 and 1:8 twists...

    SR25 Upper Compatibility

    So there have been mixed results if I recall correctly on their uppers.

    SR25 Upper Compatibility

    I appreciate all the work you have put in on this! There is a huge hole in the market. I know Charlie's Customs was working on dimensional drawing of the SR upper but I dont know where that got left off. LMT (and KAC to some extent) lowers are readily available and I have always been confused...

    Which SBR?

    Kind of a broad question. Do you have a caliber in mind or are you just looking for awesome form 4 SBRs?

    X-Caliber AR Barrels

    Fantastic barrels. They were doing fast twist on 300 blackout long before any other barrel makers. You pay for it and wait for it but they are great barrels.

    Suppressed AK

    https://www.boretech.com/products/decimator-suppressor-cleaning-system It does work but If you have access to a 556 AR just put your can on that and do 2 or 3 mag dumps and it will self clean.

    Suppressed AK

    1. Are the PSA American made AKs concentric enough with quality threads/barrel shoulder good enough to mount a brake and suppressor? - Sorry no experience with PSA AKs but if you already own the gun you can check with a bore alignment rod. Any competent smith can do this when they put the QD...

    Advancements in Handguards

    @Jigstick what do you want to do with your rifle? What length of a rail are you looking for? If you are not using the rail for anything other than a handguard, find one that you like the size of and rock on. If you are looking to attached items like bipods and lights than M-LOK is probably...

    V seven Rifles?

    I have no experience with their full rifles but I personally own a V7 barrel on my 16" recce build. Its half MOA and lightweight for the accuracy. A shop I am affiliated with has done a number of builds with 12.5 V7 barrels, again they are lasers, even with non match ammo. I have heard some...

    Nope, but thats my point.

    5.56 becoming obsolete

    True, but the announcement of the winner for the NGSW is not till the end of the year. The logistics and money needed to migrate all of big Army from 556 to 6.8 is daunting. If I was a betting man I would think the NGSW will end up like the SCAR program or any combat of the future BS. Clearly...

    SBR 5.56 ammo

    Have you shot the PMC?

    SBR 5.56 ammo

    In my guns I have gotten better accuracy out of the PMC clone vs the IMI and generally it's cheaper. I have had some decent sub moa groups out of the IMI but nothing to write home about.

    Need help!! Aero m5e1 not cycling

    I disagree, I have seen numerous guns that are brand new (factory & home builds) that were not lubed properly and had issues for the first 20 rounds or so. He only has 2 rounds through it. Troubleshooting always starts at the very beginning (it is clear he is a beginner with an AR), if not you...
