SBR AR15 Complete
Yes, 41P is about trusts and corps requiring CLEO sign off. What I said what prior to Obama's EO, BATFE, on their own accord, was looking at eliminating CLEO sign off for individuals.

Best place/price for CR123s?
Agreed. I use the Battery Station ones because they have the circuit breaker in them and are designed for use in weapon applications. My batteries in optics, weaponlights, and my EDC light get cycled out every six months (same time as I change the CO/smoke detector batteries) whether they need to come out or not as PM. So that's six pairs of CR123s in X300Us and one pair in my EDC Fury every six months. I probably go through more batteries than the average user. The Battery Station ones have earned my trust and they're also made in the US.

I have run Battery Station branded ones for 5+ years now without issue: http://www.batterystation.com/cr123a.htm

SBR AR15 Complete
The signature requirement isn't in effect for trusts at this time and I don't think there will be a change in CLEO signature requirements considering that prior to this, the BATFE was independently looking at completely doing away with CLEO signature requirements for Title 2 firearms.

Colt 901 Modular Carbine: it's here!
If you can hold out and a 1-6 is enough for you, SWFA usually has a 20% off deal on Black Friday on their 1-6 FFP mil/mil which makes it $800.

Colt 901 Modular Carbine: it's here!
There's also the FSC30 which is the 30 cal version of the FSC556. There seems to be a love/hate relationship with that comp though depending on who you ask about it.

Colt 901 Modular Carbine: it's here!
I'd take a hard look at a low power variable optic. I have a 1-8.5 FFP Bushnell coming for my SPR and I think something like that would be perfectly suited to a multi-use carbine like the 901. Vortex and SWFA also put out really nice 1-6 optics too. As for mags, well, you know what I'm gonna say there...

AR10 Question
As far as I know, there isn't an Armalite that will take both DPMS-pattern mags like the Magpul PMAGs and Armalite's proprietary modified M14/M1A mags. The AR10A takes the DPMS-pattern mags while the AR10B takes the modified M14/M1A mags.

The need for a good (high lumen) flashlight
I have Surefire Furys all over the place for the same reasons. Sometimes, I think I need help. Which usually results in me checking on what new lights SF has coming out...

Decided to start 2nd build
A 12" will leave almost the entire gas block exposed. The ODIN 3 Gun barrel uses an intermediate length gas system so it's just a tad shorter.

Decided to start 2nd build
A 12" would leave about a quarter inch of gas block exposed.

Am I being anal retentive???
The before looks more off center to me?

Am I being anal retentive???
I'd say it's par for the course. Crush washers aren't centered prior to torquing down a muzzle device.

Supreme Court takes up straw purchase conviction case
If you had someone else take possession and they filled out the background check, regardless of if they paid you for the firearm or not, it wouldn't have been illegal. As for your question about if it was a gift, the outcome would not have been the same. If it was a bonafide gift and money did not change hands, it would have been legal.

Supreme Court takes up straw purchase conviction case
The firearm was transferred to his uncle, a PA resident, through a PA FFL. This was legal and the correct way of transfering a handgun from a resident of one state to the resident of another. This isn't what was in question. The issue is did Abramski lie on the 4473? The firearm was clearly not a gift since the uncle paid him for it.

Which bolt carrier group in a 6920?
Yes, it should have the M16 full-auto profile.

5.56 55gr vs. 62gr, disadvantages/advantages
As part of the M4 upgrade program, the military is considering 70K PSI rounds aka proof rounds to make the M4 more lethal. The M855A1 rounds aren't those but are an enhanced version of M855 that are supposed to be barrier blind and more effective against personnel. Now if they swap to shooting proof rounds, well, let's just say they're going to be buying a lot of bolts and barrels...

5.56 55gr vs. 62gr, disadvantages/advantages
Because M855 has a steel core that is supposed to make it a better penetrator. M855 is technically an anti light-armor round while M193 is straight anti-personnel. In practice, M193 tends to punch through helmets better than M855 at <200yds due to velocity. When talking about intermediate barriers like cinder blocks, I feel the difference between the two is moot and if you want to punch through that stuff, step up to .308.
