    Who would you recommend to put my new build together?

    well shit, if the upper is already assembled, you might as well get a couple punches and a hammer and do the rest yourself!

    300 blk Truck Gun

    I'm looking to build it from the ground up, I was just considering noveske and aac's barrels. What advice I'm specifically looking for is something like known fitment issues, quirky things to keep an eye out for, tips and or tricks, that kind of thing. Things such as, the 300BO barrels are...

    300 blk Truck Gun

    Looking to build a 300blk SBR as a truck gun/toy. Looking for input and suggestions. Primarily going to be shooting unsuppressed for the foreseeable future. Looking at 8~ or 9~ inch barrels from noveske/rainier/aac and go back and fourth between CMT billet upper/lower and the rainier arms set or...

    SR-25, OBR, LMT MWS , AR-10a Owners question

    I wish LaRue had the option of additional uppers for my LaRue lower (pred308) but that's about it

    loose gas tube

    it's the rattling that bothers you, isn't it? i'd just try and overlook it, especially if it truly does perform flawlessly.

    Surefire, PWS or SJC

    the indexing was definitely a bitch but I love the break on my larue 308. havent tried the pws but I'm completely happy with the surefire, wheel of doom and shims aside.

    4 choices for next rifle, LVOA, PWS, CORE TAC III, or Tavor

    As far as building goes, you're on the internet- that's all you need. Youtube and a couple Google searches and you're there, that's how I did my most recent ar15 and it shoots as good or better than anything else out there. Best of Luck!

    Duck Creek Armory ARs

    Should have gone to Rainier or Surplus. They've been selling some top-notch AR15s with Geissele triggers already installed from AAC if I recall correctly for around 1350. All is not lost however, just wait it out and hopefully you can take it out and abuse the shit out of it. I waited about 7...

    Surefire, PWS or SJC

    Add another one for the Surefire SOCOM series of muzzle breaks. I have had them on multiple AR15s and they shoot almost like 22s. Makes CQB and LR shooting much easier. I also have one on my LaRue PredAR308 and the recoil went from unpleasant to unnoticeable. They really are that good. +1 if you...

    Suppressors OSS Modular Suppressors

    I agree with Heronion. There is absolutely no reason to hate on OSS because his design is different than what you (anyone) have previously experienced. I have a personal friend who I was deployed with to AFG that knows him well and vouches for him. SOCOM uses his products. He's polite and a...
