    AAC 762-SDN-6 Pin & Weld

    5 inches. When I did the ecco conversion it ended up longer and heavier than the original. It's good to be back to what the mini was.

    AAC 762-SDN-6 Pin & Weld

    They are doing mini 4 retro mods now. I just sent in my mini 4 (a week and a half turnaround) and they modded it to 5 baffles vs 4, which is shorter, and weighs less. I will let you all know how it sounds but I am super psyched about this one. This is a can I use all the time and beat the hell...

    300blk out problems

    I have never had an issue with factory ammo and magazines in 300 Blackout. I generally always use emags for 300 as they look different and I have a bunch of them but doesn't seem to matter. I have had at least 6 300 blk rifles of various sizes including the OG 9" AAC that I still have. This...

    Centurion Arms Chrome Sandcutter Carrier

    Some of the sand in the middle east is like moon dust. When it mixes with oil it makes almost like a cement, locking up the gun. The sandcutter was designed to help with this problem. The cuts in the BCG rails clear debris as it moves. This is one of the reasons why the 416 was so successful...

    AAC 762-SDN-6 Pin & Weld

    Definitely shorter and lighter with far less back pressure. I don't think I would say its as quiet but it has a similar tone.

    Barrel recomendation for 8" 300BLK

    You not going to get that accuracy out of 300 blk ammo. I would be more concerned about proper gasing, length, and twist rate for the type of shooting you want vs spending the money on a high end barrel that is not going to reach its potential.

    Best 12.5 barrel?

    A carbine 12.5 is one of the most mechanically reliable barrel to gas systems you can get. Excellent dwell time, you can tune the gas to what you want, large envelope of operation, and is super soft shooting for an SBR. Even better with the A5 system.

    Best 12.5 barrel?

    Its also the shortest barrel length you can run a K can and not get a ton of flash in my experience. Its kind of the perfect do all length.

    Best 12.5 barrel?

    He may want to try the A5H1. I started with the A5H3 and did the A5H2, I think it runs the best with A5H1

    Best 12.5 barrel?

    I have one of the OG Hodges. No issues with reliability but only have experience with 2 of them. Mine is perfectly gassed for a high pressure can. Sometimes with crappy steel case it won't lock back but I'm fine with that. Running an A5 with a A5H1.

    Optic for SBR 556?

    I am kind of in agreement with @Docsherm on this. My general opinion is dot or dot + magnifier on 11.5" or shorter. 12.5" - 14.5" dot + magnifier or LPVO. 14.5" - 16" GP rifle LPVO 1-8 or 1-10. If running more of a precision roll / DMR 2-10 or 3-18 with a 12:00 dot.
