    LR 308 "remodeling" Project buffer question

    Once upon a time, I picked up a 20" heavy BBL DPMS LR308, it had a short hand guard and an A2 stock. Not a bad gun but I quickly realized that it was one heavy SOB for its relatively small package. LR-308B in my opinion a very basic rifle that no one put alot of thought in to. I decided to...

    Suppressors Predator Hunting Suppressed

    Hiders, I'm not the usual for writing reviews, and living in a state with out laws favoring suppressors I have to live vicariously through those that do. Hopefully someday the MN lawmakers will see the light like our neighbor to the west and allow responsible gun owners to can their guns...

    Gunsmithing 1:9 Twist .25WSSM?

    I have a Dedicated Technologies AR in 25 WSSM, its a 1:10 twist 22" stainless ultra match. Love the thing to death, kills everything it hits, shoots .75ish MOA, light enough to be handy, heavy enough to be accurate...on and on. Recently I have been thinking about having Mike build me an 18...

    Piecing together a new AR-15

    I am going to undertake my first rifle build done entirely by myself, I've done parts here and there, lowers and such on my AR's over the years, but never built an entire rifle from parts.
