New Contest Starting Now! This Target Haunts Me
Tell us about the one that got away, the flier that ruined your group, the zero that drifted, the shot you still see when you close your eyes. Winner will receive a free scope!
If the barrel nut needs to be timed I usually just hand tighten it close to where it needs to be and then finish it off to where it's properly timed. There are a couple of others like Padom that build many more precision ARs that I do and might have a different build philosophy than I do.
You said he was using the same type of ammo. Was he using the same exact ammo or did he change the ammo to something similar?
You might want to back off the torque on the hand guard. I know technically 80 ft lbs is still in spec but it's the upper limit and I'm not sure how many people actually...
The rail finally shipped via UPS ground today and is in the hands of UPS. We will see how long it takes them to get it across country ???
We will also see if it's the right one. Geissele shipped me the wrong reaction rod and it still took them a week to ship me the right one once I told them...
Just remember that shooting a 223 caliber in a match isn't just the shooter. The spotters are really going to have to be on the ball as well. Your hits are going to be difficult for them to spot as well at longer ranges. Don't be surprised and to hard on them if you think you hit the target but...
Yeah, good luck trying to break into this business now a days and try to stay open. With so many companies you better come up with something really unique or you're just building just another AR and you're going to need a whole lotta luck with that.
I don't think it's that hard to give people who ordered after black Friday priority. Just sort the orders by date. There is probably a system that identifies orders that are over due for being shipped. They probably wouldn't even have to have their order system redone.
Correct, same exact rail and that is what it says. Even tried doing it for a couple of other parts just top try and make sure if they were saying something different based on the part and it's popularity. But it may be site wide.
I looked at a couple of items and didn't see anything about shipping times on the product pages. I put an item in their shopping cart and began the checkout process and there it said new orders will be shipped in 3-5 business days and that new orders placed at full retail prices after the black...
What ambi controls can you not get with an Anderson lower over a more expensive lower? Other than the bolt release I can't think of one that I wouldn't think of getting. The Seekins lowers are $260.00 and for me even with buying a $100.00 lower that ambi bolt release isn't enough of a motivator...
Just got the lower built. I have another lower that's been sitting around for a long time doing nothing so I decided I would do two builds. In fact the lower is so old that the company is no longer in business LOL. The 18" build I started planning and a pistol build. So I took the lower last...
Just completed my Aero lower last night. I have to tell you it was as good as the lower on my 308 which is a Mega Billet set as far as the build goes. I haven't tried mating it to an upper yet since I don't have one completed yet. But everything had excellent tolerances that are probably as good...
I think the most important thing is something to hold to upper while you're tightening the barrel nut to the rifle. There are blocks that you can use to put the upper into a vice block or something like the Kley-Zion spline tool.
For the lower you can get a lower vice block.
Other than maybe...
I'm going to be using an Aero Precision receiver set. On my 308 I used a handguard and adjustable gas block from SLR and they're great products. SLR has some of the best customer service I've seen. Can't go wrong with SLR IMO.
I like the looks of the receiver. Don't really care how much stronger they say it is. If I didn't already have an upper I might look at getting that one just based on looks. LOL
But the Aero should be fine. That being said get what it is you want and don't look back. You only live once. LOL
I did it to relay what my service has been like. Recent CS experiences may not be important to you but it might be to the OP. It wasn't really to vent.
