    Criterion 6.5 Creed Barrel

    I would buy a 16"+ handguard long before I would ever consider a 22" RLGS 6.5CM.

    If you're gonna watch hot chick's pretending to work out you might as well be entertained by a band that doesn't take itself seriously at the same time.

    AR Tuning question

    I haven't followed this thread or your issue very closely, but seriously, seeing that one piece gas ring I know exactly what the very next diagnostic move would be if I were you.

    AR Tuning question

    I've never met anyone that is. And I even live fairly close to JP, on the outskirts of JP fanboi land. I tried one because every other JP part I've used is top tier. To this day it lives on my little shelf displaying all my mistakes, catastrophic failures and money wasted.

    AR Tuning question

    Uh oh.

    AR Tuning question

    I don't know. In theory I agree with this. But I've spent the last decade assembling gaming rifles tuned to the max for the sole reason that people on the internet say they won't work. In practice I can't prove any of the unreliability, finicky when dirty, temp sensitive etc. things that are...

    I've heard they are assembled on site.

    People ask me why I don't like Sig.......

    Any mass produced rifle that behaves that badly eating brass cased commercial ammo, thats a big no thanks from me.

    Of course he did. Every kid I knew growing up has been in exactly that situation. You don't need eyebrows to live.

    AR Tuning question

    Yes, not all gas rings are created equal. I replaced all worn out set with 14-15k on them. The new set didn't make it 1000 before they were toast.

    Gunsmithing Adjusting Gas Key to lower receiver gap with a JP silent capture spring?

    Would probably have twice the answers if this was in the semi auto subforum. Although the answers thus far pretty much covered it.

    Brass for precision Semi-Autos.

    Range pick up LC all day every day.

    SP10 Handguard question

    No. If you already have a flat bottomed handguard all ARCA gives you is easy bipod placement adjustability.

    KAK products

    Welp, 13.7" nitride intermediates just came back in stock, so I ordered one. Not sure why, and it'll probably be a while till it turns into an upper, but it was cheap so why not.

    Griffin mk2 9mm

    I've only put a few rounds through one, but its absolutely in a different league than any blowback gun no matter how well tuned. Less recoil than the one MP5 I've shot, and I find the AR based ergonomics to be far superior.

    Griffin mk2 9mm

    Just to be pedantic, I'll mention that the JP5 operating system is basically lifted right out of the MP5, which is definitely a tried and true gun.

    People ask me why I don't like Sig.......

    Was RO'ing a match a couple years ago. Dude comes up with an MCX if I remember correctly. I don't know anything about them and he notices me checking it out. Proceeds to walk me through all the special features and tell me how it's the greatest thing since sliced bread, and how he "knows a guy"...

    Rebarreling an AR-15

    I've ran bolts, gas tubes/blocks, springs etc. for the life of two barrels multiple times. Sometimes after they've been through two barrels I've thrown them in the parts drawer only to have them morph into a new rifle and keep on trucking. I've also got one upper receiver that was retired due to...

    I blew up my rifle!

    Eh, I've had over a dozen case head separations. They aren't exciting at all, just a lot of smoke and the next round won't feed because there's still half a case in the chamber. Most of the time you still hit exactly where you were aiming.
