Damn you again, Steve! Twice in one thread?!

I disagree. Iowa is a perfect example of grassroots 2A activism targeted at the general populace shifting the state's laws to the pro-gun side. In the last 10 years, Iowa's gun laws have become increasingly pro-gun. They're working on NFA reform now which I think might be putting the cart before the horse as some other, more basic title one gun laws need to be addressed before trying to legalize title two stuff for non-SOTs.

I think the reason most gun owner are upset about the antics of Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum is because they aren't helping win over the general public as far as firearms perception goes. They have done the contrary and set us back in the eyes of the average non-gun owner who isn't necessarily a gun grabber. American politics regardless of topic is fast becoming more of who can win the middle ground. No one is saying they shouldn't be able to do it legally. There's a time and a place to OC an AR15 and that wasn't it. Those idiots handed the anti gun crowd a win on a silver tray, I mean, silver foil in a red plastic basket.

Honestly, I wouldn't sweat it.

Not quite. The gas port placement is different as well as amount of barrel after the port is different between the two. An ODIN Works 3-Gun will cycle a rifle length action system without issue.

SPR= Special Purpose Rifle. Think of it as a dual purpose rifle that handles longer range precision as well as closer range shooting. Luth-AR: http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?cPath=22_140&products_id=817

It shouldn't have any trouble with that.

Measure of precision shouldn't change as distance increases until you get to such a point where your bullet goes trans-sonic. So the barrels would be sub-MOA at 100 yards, 200 yards, etc.

IMO the best thing anyone and everyone can do independently and without any sort of group coordination to advance the pro gun agenda is to take someone who is on the fence about guns to the range. Teach them the basic four rules of safety and teach them to shoot. In my experience, you don't have to sell them on guns to get them to like them. Once they start shooting, they generally like it. I've had fencesitters so excited after their first few rounds that the start to turn around from the firing line and I have to remind them to keep the gun pointed down range.

Missouri ones do too

Oooh, I'll get you for that...

They ARE clowns.

Suppressive fire is more the role of the squad's LMGs though. The IAR is meant to replace some (not all) of the USMC M249s and IIRC, the Army will be sticking with the M249 and passing on the IAR completely. The IAR isn't meant to replace the standard M4 or M16.

This. The OC crowd wanted to show off their guns in the misguided thought that their approach will win over people who are on the fence about guns. You don't teach someone to swim by going a mile off shore and throwing them overboard. As I see it, the OCers painted Chipotle into a corner and MDA exploited that. I won't penalize Chipotle for their decision and will continue to carry a concealed firearm when I'm there as I always have.

They've actually been up for a bit. I forgot about updating this thread is all. http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?cPath=99_159&products_id=834

Some pics of the prototype. This isn't a finalized design but it's supposed to be 90% of the way there.

Unfortuantely, we're not set up to pin and weld brakes. There are a number of forum vendors that we can ship to directly if you would like though.

The machine shop keeps saying they're just around the corner. Last updated was a week or two ago when they were waiting on material because they rejected the last lot of 7075 due to quality issues.

He was getting similar results though his handload did worse than FGMM due to his handload being tailored for a specific rifle. I suspect jump tolerance and OAL were the culprit. Midlength cycles a little harder. I could tell a difference but it wasn't extreme or uncomfortable. It could probably be tamed with a brake pretty easily.

Nope but I also haven't ever used the BAD EPS so I can't say if that's the way they all are or not.

Since it's brand new, I'd leave it alone. My guess is with use, it'll become easier to push the pin out. I've had some super stiff ones that after some shooting and use, the pins went from needing a hammer to being able to push out with just a little effort. I do trim the spring when using my billet lowers because it makes installing the threaded hex head insert that traps the spring and detent much easier.

I had to double check my build but yes, 100% normal. I have the same gap with the Luth and the extension kit you purchased on my house branded billet lower.

Haha, hopefully they do not disappoint. Thus far, all feedback has been positive and there are more than a few out there now.

I may know what your problem is. If you normally run steel cased Wolf, your chamber is likely really dirty. This is because steel doesn't expand the same way brass does. Brass expands in the chamber to seal it and then snaps back to size due to its elastic nature. My guess would be due to the Wolf, your brass is expanding and sticking due to the soot and junk lining it from previous rounds. This is creating enough friction to mimic short stroking. People rarely have issues shooting steel case ammo unless their extractor was cast or they switch to brass cased ammo.

This sounds like a gas issue. What brand of ammo and is was it your first time shooting that? Have you disassembled the BCG and reassembled it prior to the visit to the range?
