    Best Ejection Port Dust Cover?

    I have gone through thousands of ejection port covers this year. I could count on one hand the number of bad ones, whether it is the spring/detent or they were not crimped together properly, it does occasional happen. They all come from just a few sources. I would take the chance to add some...

    14.5" 308 ar

    I had a 14.5" 308 for awhile. with the permanently attached muzzle break, it was the most obnoxious rifle to shoot I have ever owned. At the range, people for 2 or 3 benches on either side would stop shooting and get up....heck, it was obnoxious even standing directly behind someone shooting it...

    Pof .308

    that is a good first post. This site does have a for sale section for active members.....and sorry to burst your bubble, the second hand market on those is $1500 to $2000, so it is not a smoking deal, just average pricing.

    Gunsmithing SOT 07 ITAR and Excise Question

    but does the 06 need to get the ITAR? just curious, I am going to get a FFL again, very least a 01, maybe add the NFA to it. I do not know if I want to do the 07 again....The 06 interests me, but the dam insurance!!! hell, would be worth it just to manufacturer 22LR :)

    Pof or lwrc repr Which is the better buy

    Go with the LWRC. I love my ASA side chargers (I have a few of them, 308s, 9mm, 223...and 2 other builds in process). On the second hand market POF 308s are going $1500 to $2100 range with little use on them. POF main advantage is the Mike Rock Barrel.

    POF P308 PRS Conversion Issues

    the 308s are finicky in this style of piston system. changing the weight of buffer, strength of spring can cause problems, as you have experienced. Soon as I started reading the OPs first post I was saying to myself "Piston". There is a reason POF has various sizes of pistons on hand. To tune...

    308 Piston bolts any difference?

    You can run a DI bolt in them. but the Hogan/pof carriers have an integral piston key machined into them, so are specific for there systems.

    Is a billet Lower worth it?

    I love when these threads come up. If your in a position to find out the strength differences between the two, my guess is that your world has gone to hell in a hand basket in a very very bad way......or your doing something with the lower that it was never meant to do, IE: jack stand, baseball...

    AR in 9mm

    I have one of those blocks, never had a problem with it. Actually I really like is because it lets you adjust the block position for the mags. My modified uzi mags sit a little differently then my Colt mags, so it is set for using the Colt mags. If your using a block, the lower can be any...

    Smith Enterprises, Inc. Suing over a forum post.

    The Key here is that you did not put money down. A customer can only bitch/gripe so much when they do not have any money already invested......Paying upfront IS asking for trouble. I have seen a lot of companies get themselves in trouble with customers because of this.

    5.45x39

    If you use a old Black follower in it, you can run about 20 to 23 rounds in a 30rnd 223 magazine.....been playing with this caliber in the AR for over 10 years now.....and for ten years I have been hearing "what if the ammo dries up".....

    Which big bore for AR?

    I have been shooting the Beowulf since it came out.....hell, I have even had a .499 LW and 50AE from Tromix. I am on my second upper, long story, but a family has the first....It will shoot Sub MOA with Factory ammo, pretty impressive considering they are 1/2" projectiles. The 500 S&W was the...

    Lets Talk Triggers

    Gotta agree with this..... That being said, I have quite a few different single and double stage triggers. Geissele triggers rock, personally don't care for the 3G version though because I also like a nice clean breaking trigger for longer range. I have been happy with my Chip McCormick...
