Mismatch Gas System - Buffer
You should be fine. My midlength 18" barrels are similarly sized in the gas port and they cycle an A2 buffer without issue.

So Who Else Has Ordered New 15rd Mags Today?
70% of June's magazine sales. Magazine sales are a portion of total revenue as there are 700+ non-magazine SKUs that we sell.

So Who Else Has Ordered New 15rd Mags Today?
We have shipped a little under 500 mags to NJ so far today. To put that in perspective, that was 70% of all NJ mag shipments in the month of June.

AR pics, lets see'um!
Winner winner, chicken dinner! It's a Tactical Innovations .22LR AM15 upper on a full-auto lower. The FCG comes from the Colt LMG and the upper fires from an open bolt. Cyclic rate of about 1850rpm. I'm sourcing some 275rd drums today.

The need for a good (high lumen) flashlight
Rookie mistake of not having a camera on me (this was a road trip from hell) but I had to unhitch a U-haul in the middle of nowhere around 0100 with zero illumination other than my car's tail lights and stars. Pulled out my P3X and the 15 lumen mode was enough to get the job done with minimal cursing. I walked south to the top of the slope that goes down to the pond (not pictured because it's an old Google Earth shot). In the pic, I was standing at the "X" and at 1K lumens, the P3X light up (approximately) the area in red (scale for reference is in the lower right corner). Loving this flashlight!

What's your opinion about White Oak armament?
Excellent value and quality. They do small batch production which I like since it means they have more opportunities to QC their products.

Why do AR lowers not need an OAL of 26"?
Federally speaking, if you have the parts to make an illegal configuration as well as a legal one, it cannot be presumed that you will make the illegal one. There is case law/precedent to this effect involvoing T/C.

thinkng of my next build
Make sure you use a .308 AR LPK and not an AR15 LPK. While most of the parts are interchangeable, the bolt catches are not. An AR15 bolt catch will fit however will eventually break.

The need for a good (high lumen) flashlight
I can light up my neighbor's entire back yard from my deck with this P3X. I'll take it out to the acreage this weekend play with it some more in an area that has zero light pollution.

The need for a good (high lumen) flashlight
Got my first P3X Fury today. Won't be my last, that's for sure. I'm going to play with it tonight but it's an impressive amount of light.

Thanks for the order! I think I'm going to open up the deal to the rest of the internet over the weekend. Supply lines on the bundle components seem to be firming up so we shouldn't run out.

In my experience retailing lowers, the market seems to prefer the pictograms over words which is why I went that route. Nope, anyone who answers the phone knows about this deal.

SBR AR15 Complete
I may be wrong, I don't profess to know everything 10000%. But as I understand it, the EO was a directive from POTUS to BATFE to look into changing the way title two firearms are handled. Technically, ATF can say they aren't going to take any action whatsoever after they respond to all the comments. But there's been enough holes poked in the proposal to require CLEO sign off that it's hard to imagine they would enact the ruling as it was originally worded. If they want to make changes to incorporate the feedback from comments, it would significantly change the direction which would then re-open the comment period. I'm not alone in this line of thought as multiple SOTs are also of this opinion.
