The black has NEVER stayed on HK extractors well. Believed to be due to the heat treat of the extractor but who knows. Dont worry about it.

Sorry, long day. Ill get pics up tomorrow.

Just a reminder that reasonable offers will be considered. Thanks for looking, Shane

AR15 based platforms are fairly easy to put together. It is my understanding there is nuance to 6.5G's to build it as intended(I have not built one myself). But moving to the large pattern platform, building is a different proposition. Its easy to spend a lot of money with abysmal results. I know more than a few very experienced people that had quite the rough go trying to get their 6.5cm/260 rem builds running and accurate.

Cleaned up ad 1) Earlier, sought after, Larue OBR in 308 with added options. Xtran model from when Larue was using the Lothar Walther barrel. Has the switch block upgrade, stock upgrade to PRS, grip upgrade and Surefire brake upgrade from factory. I have shot into the .3's with this rifle. Extremely accurate. Shoots amazingly well. Fit and finish are excellent. This rifle was closing in on 4k new. Optics, Bipod, Mounts not included. Round count is under 300. $2800 Offers considered. Please shoot me a msg if interested.

I wouldn't have chosen the word poor, but I am a fan of illuminating the concepts of false economics. But as I am sure you know some people become emotionally vested in their selections. Im not pointing at anyone specifically in this thread, I am just speaking generally.

Spares to whatever your system is is always prudent.

"Top one is my Vepr 223 (also a Robinson Arms import)... 4th one down between that UZI and the suppressed Beretta is my Vepr 2 in 7.62x39." You sure that's a Beretta? Looks like a Scorpion to me.

The bill!

6.5 go with (in no particular order) Wilson Combat, GA Precision, JP Custom or Seekins Precision if a bit more budget minded. However, if your interested in a tack driver, I have an original LW barreled Larue OBR in 308 I'd part with

SIgh... you guys wear me out. I wish I could put "will do the same thing" or "just as good" on the ignore function. I have explained many times the difference between cost and value. Value is a personal affair! One cannot decide another's value for something. I will NEVER understand the cost of a Birkin Bag, but I can appreciate there are those that do see the value and are willing to pay for it. I personally place a high value on AR's that have considerable reliability and endurance. In my opinion other AR's do not match those aspects of a KAC. Last I looked, there were NO broken proprietary bolts. People like Travis Haley and Chris Costa had ridiculous round counts on theirs, as in closing in on 100k rounds level round counts on the original bolt. Others may not place such a value on these attributes and therefore the value proposition is different for them. Much the same that a Holosun is good enough for their activities and needs. But I really cant stand someone saying its just as good as, because it meets their "value and needs" but have not considered they may be different than mine. But from a mechanical aspect the bolt designs of the SR15/16 or the SCAR16 for that matter have an advantage over other AR15's. How much value you place on that is up to the INDIVIDUAL. Specifically the SR15 is considered a very good value. You get a lot for your money there. Dont believe me, look at the resale. It is practically immune to what the AR market is doing, much like the SCAR is. But let me say this, for me, Id rather have 1 SR15 with an Aimpoint than 3 6920's with Holosuns! But thats MY value proposition.

Taking away my Xmas sport I haven't beat the snot out of one but from what I see, I think your right about the Holosun. I bought one to play with so that all of my opinion on cheaper optics wasnt pure speculation

The points were made pages ago, all thats left is keeping Ray in his lane.

Sorry Ray, all the years on this forum you have yet to win a single argument against me. You said: "IIRC one of the big wigs at Trijicon left to Primary Arms and took with him the knowledge and skills to build their brand." "Dimitri Mikroulis, who designed optics for Trijicon works for Primary Arms." So far both these statements appear to be patently wrong. I dont find anything indicating he worked for Trijicon. Only that they licensed one of his reticles. He is not listed on the executives on the PA website. Perhaps he works for them but an employee HARDLY qualifies as a big wig that left Trijicon to build the PA brand. You can make your own Reticle too. Pay 1k and I can get it put in a US Optics scope for you. BFD! The USO Scope on my Cadex has a reticle in it designed by George Gardner from GA Precision. That doesnt make him a US Optics employee, I assure you. Please show me evidence he worked for Trijicon as a high level person. You stole fizzy lifting drinks.. you bumped into the ceiling that now had to be washed and sterilized, so you get NOTHING!

Browe, former Director of Operations of Trijicon, Inc. Mr. Browe has over 22 years experience in manufacturing combat and tactical optics with extensive experience in the industry. And this link to an interview with the CEO of PA said he started it in the back of his barber shop. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2012/11/foghorn/an-interview-with-marshall-lerner-ceo-of-primary-arms/ Ill side with Lord-Fudd on this one! LOL

"IIRC one of the big wigs at Trijicon left to Primary Arms and took with him the knowledge and skills to build their brand." I think your confusing them with Browe. http://www.browe-inc.com/categories/4x32-BROWE-Combat-Optic-(BCO)/

Unless thats new, I believe its semi's only with the weight requirement. Think about an S&W 500 revolver, def. over 50oz in the longer barrels.

If you want a KAC, I have a nice lightly used one, jersey compliant, for a fair price. LMK.

I was kidding, making a joke about if people can make grips out of the skins of my pet, Ill do that too

Of the two, BCM.

Well... Im not convinced I disagree. Since I made the point, then I have an obligation to hearing your position and considering its merits. I find your position is not without substance. That led me to the discussion about the topic seems to be an actual debate amongst herpetologists. But I digress, I just want to know where I can get cat skin grips for my 1911! :O :D

I did not say I had a Retic, just that I had a Python. I specifically didnt go with a big snake because of my other pets and kids. A single anecdote of a particularly long snake doesnt make the species the longest as a species. A world record tall person from indonesia (apparently one of the shortest races of people on earth) doesnt make them the tallest race. You said longest species. That conflicted with what I recalled so I looked it up. 1st hit said Anaconda was longest as a species. Digging deeper, results say that some hold that neither is the clear winner for a lack of data that is verifiable.

Well... Google would argue with you. My Python is just a little guy at 5 ft but Ive had him for about 16 years.

I believe the Green Anaconda is the longest species.
