    flash hiders?

    Re: flash hiders? The A2 is a compromise product imo, and of the two you mention the Vortex is better. You might also consider looking at these offerings: http://ar15performance.com/muzzle_devices

    Rail System for AR-15

    Re: Rail System for AR-15 Short answer to your question - yes. It's a free float handguard, which means if you bridged from the receiver on to that handguard (which is no way associated with the barrel, it just covers it and gives you a means to attach components to), you can change your...

    best longer length AR butt stock??

    Re: best longer length AR butt stock?? Nothing like buying something that belongs on a pickup truck that would be more appropriate on a sports cars, or vice versa. I know the phrase you use very well. I was suggesting that there is an option far less expensive than for example a sniper stock...

    Rail System for AR-15

    Re: Rail System for AR-15 Rewind a bit here - and just sticking with the AR15. You want to be able to mount your NF F1 on/off, right? The issue here is that you don't want to bridge the mount (assuming it's a more than one piece) from the receiver onto the handguard itself. There are...

    Last round won't throw the bolt back on my AR.

    Re: Last round won't throw the bolt back on my AR. Is is just with the last round in every mag? If that were the case I'd check mag/springs 1st.Not clear in your post whether it was just the 1 mag or all of them.

    Looking for my first rifle

    Re: Looking for my first rifle With semi-s, particularly AR10 platforms, you're looking at a very expensive investment for a rifle that is capable of much more than what you want it for. I would recommend that you not go this route. If it;s target shooting and it's only 300 yards, a BR would...

    Stripped barrel of copper arter 150 rds, mistake?

    Re: Stripped barrel of copper arter 150 rds, mistake? I don't mess with copper fouling until my accuracy drops off noticeably. I use KG12 but my intent is never to remove all fouling just some of it.

    .223 Barrel Upgrade

    Re: .223 Barrel Upgrade I was going to ask - .75 MOA with factory loads or hand loads? Are you a competition shooter? If so, maybe then I'd look at a barrel (if the crown itself isn't an issue), the ammo, the trigger, scope and mount before I would look at re-barreling. Another thing is...

    AR optic choices

    Re: AR optic choices Have you also looked at mounts? There are a couple of variations here too - 1/3 witness and absolute co-witness. Basically if your battery dies, you don't lose the ability to view thru your red dot. 1/3 means your sites are in the bottom 1/3 of your FOV and absolute is...

    AR optic choices

    Re: AR optic choices Quack - have you used both types? The 2-4 (or more) MOA dot if used for hunting beyond 100 might be problematic on shot placement. Are you averse to something like...

    Small frame AR build thread

    Re: Small frame AR build thread Well - I will say that you picked your barrel/bolt combo from an outstanding firm. Harrison is very good at what he does and my 6.8 barrel/blot from him is simply....great. I will be buying more from him. Glad you settled into a cartridge you will enjoy and...

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? YEs - this is very good shooting for a gas gun on a bipod. I'm actually surprised you asked that - my first thought was "Show off!" But then i thought, I shott the same with my gas gun on a bipod. Enjoy and take her out to the distances you're...

    Help w/ AR

    Re: Help w/ AR Well heck - the only things you need then are a match barrel, good trigger and glass. Everything else is window dressing. You can easily build your own exactly the way you want to - no builder will give you what you want at a rpice that you can easily afford. I've built 3 so...

    Trigger Reccomendatiion

    Re: Trigger Reccomendatiion Geissele SSA-E - if you want a 2 stage trigger, which you didn't mention in your original question. I like it alot - the 2.3 1st stage allows me to take up the slack to the 1s stage and the remaining ~1.2 lbs is nothing at all, very clean break. Or - throw caution...

    AR-15 Colors

    Re: AR-15 Colors +1 on the Duracoat http://www.lauerweaponry.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=929 Why buy new parts when all you have to do is paint them? This is a no bake and very reliable (imo) system that I have used on 2 firearms.
