I believe BM uses Loctite or some other type of adhesive on their rifles. The .308 ORC that we re-worked for a SWAT team had the castle nut on that was very difficult to remove and I believe it was due to an adhesive as it was not staked.

I wear glasses with lenses made of ballistic polycarb so nothing off the shelf. As for ears, Surefire Defenders under Howard Leight Impact Sport electronic muffs. I have a primary line of hearing protection that you can't get in NJ (suppressor) though between the Defender and HLs, it's a very decent and affordable combination with great protection.

We've got 7", 9", 12" and 14" Fortis REV rails in stock currently. These rails are light and strong and packed with features! Made from milspec anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, traditional pic rails at 12 and 6 o'clock while the the 3 and 9 o'clock positions have the new Key Mod system integrated with leading pic rails. Each rail comes with four rotation-limited QD points for integration with your sling. Anti-rotation tabs and mounting to the stock barrel nut round out the other key features. On a personal note, I really like how the left-right dimension is actually thinner than the rail is tall. I can wrap my hand around more of the rail which gives me better control over the rifle. Weights of the different length rails: 7": 6.7oz 9": 7.9oz 12": 9.2oz 14": 11.0oz Order by clicking the picture or the links above!

Pick up one of these then: http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?cPath=70&products_id=648 The ACT trigger is a great upgrade from the milspec trigger. It's cleaner (no creep) and has a sharper break. Also sports an electroless nickel plating. If you need one with an LPK, the better buy is this: http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?cPath=100&products_id=659

It depends on context. If the upper has a barrel on it, that means it's ready to shoot and comes with handguards, a BCG, and charging handle. If it's an unbarreled receiver, "complete" means with forward assist and ejection port cover. The "M4" in the description should refer to if the upper has the scalloped cuts to accomodate a barrel extension with M4 feedramps, a solution devised by Colt to assist in feeding when in full-auto operation.

Also, your choice of handguards may not work with the gas block you've selected. I don't know about the UTG rail but you may need a handguard cap between the gas block and the seat on the barrel. Then you run into the issue of if the gas port is drilled for a flush gas block installation or for a handguard end cap. If you can hold out for them, I've got 1:8 twist 4142 chrome moly barrels coming. Government profile, midlength gas, dimpled for the gas block installation, phosphated finish. The barrels will be available separately or as a barreled upper, ready for your choice of free float handguards. Ultimately, we'll be offering them with Fortis free float handguards, barreled receivers, or individually as parts.

I will have TONS of these so no worries about them going out of stock. They're actually here right now and I'll be taking them to get laser engraved on Monday. They should be ready to go on Wed. or Thurs. I just said "a week" initially to pad the timeline...the whole underpromise, overdeliver thing

Wait a week or so...I'll have complete laser etched 7075 Cerro forge uppers with feedramps for under $95 with the option to bundle one of our phosphated BCGs for $100

Once Magpul has their mags out, a 15/30 variant will be developed

Definitely!

Yep, they got a shipment from us

The billet sets can be ordered HERE You have the option of ordering one of our BCGs at a discount with the purchase of a billet set, only $99.95! These BCGs are backed by a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. They feature an individually MPI bolt made from 9310 steel (the only approved alternate on the print for US military bolts), chrome lined 8620 carrier, chrome lined forged gas key, and properly staked grade 8 gas key fasteners. But that's not all...we also included the option of one of our LTG (less trigger group) LPKs for $24.95 with a billet set, regularly priced at $32.95!

Guidance I have received from NJSP regarding modified mags is the modification should a) involve epoxy/adhesive and b) reversal should damage/destroy the magazine. I don't necessarily agree with the first stipulation because after three (four?) years of making modified magazines, there's only one adhesive on the market that I've found that I can't defeat easily (and I've tested a ton of different adhesives and epoxies) so it seems like a pointless parameter. Otherwise, I would have dropped the use of that very specific adhesive that's still in use with our PMAGs and stuck with just the ultrasonic welder that is now in use. The problem with the law as it is written is that it is nebulous when it comes to defining permanence and no one of authority is willing to give concrete examples of what satisfies the requirement. This is why I tend to be very conservative in the approach to modifying magazines. The last thing I want is for someone like a DA to show someone else, like a jury, how easy it is to reverse the modification. The scenario that runs through my head is a DA in a court room with a magazine and just a few seconds, with or without tools, undoing a magazine in front of a jury and saying, "With how little that took and how quickly it was done, that's not permanent." In my opinion (which with a dollar will get you a cup of coffee so take it for what it's worth), a pin or rivet alone is not enough to satisfy NJ law. It's enough for California (my opinion but in practice, my CA mags get modified the same way as NJ) but not for NJ. It's why I never released a rivet-only magazine for NJ. I've seen some with a roll pin running through the side of the body. Also not NJ legal, IMO. I've seen unsealed baseplates with a thin plastic sheet jammed in the back of the magazine which I also wouldn't consider legal.

Personally, I'd go the AR route because the M1A platform feels like optics are an afterthought. Throw in the fact that it's modular and you can swap calibers/setups by pushing two pins and you've got a pretty versatile firearm. Do a 16" lighter weight .308 build for stomping around outside and build a 20" 6.5C for when you want to ring steel at 1K yards. Just as an example, anyway.

Not always. Those really cheap milspec tubes on the market are typically made from extruded 6061, not forged 7075. The "milspec" they refer to is the extension's diameter and nothing more. Typically, they'll be extruded 6061 with cut threads. The ideal receiver extension is made from forged 7075 with rolled threads. Otherwise, a 6061 with rolled threads.

I think Magpul intentionally targeted the Troy sights at that price point. I haven't played with them yet though based on the pictures, they look to occupy a smaller footprint than the Troy sights. That being said, the Troy sights are bombproof and typically the first sights I recommend when someone is looking for folding BUIS on a duty or defensive rifle.

Shield 9mm in an MTAC or a Glock 19 in an MTAC.

Ramsey Outdoor will be carrying these mags now. We'll be shipping to their Ramsey location but they will distribute them to their other locations internally.

Very but if you're wanting to run the five coil spring, you don't have to do anything as we install that prior to shipping. Otherwise, you just have to: Push the cotter pin out Pull the firing pin out Turn the cam pin and remove Pull the bolt Push the extractor pin out Swap springs Reassemble We've got them down to about 45 seconds disassembly

I actually saw your order as it was in process and had turned the promotional price off because I didn't think anyone had any BCGs in their cart after the cutoff. I think I got it turned back on in time where you never saw it go back to the regular price in the middle of your order.

It isn't necessary for the carrier to function well. It's something offered because I personally use it and I find the extra extraction power helps overcome other shortcomings in the rifle if they're present. I use my guns pretty hard and demand alot of them. Suppressed, full-auto, short barrel, you name it. I like the extra power extractor in all applications except with a match rifle and soft brass. If you reload and use soft brass, you won't want the five coil spring but rather the four coil. This is because the five coil is more aggressive on the rim and with soft brass, can cause premature rim wear.

Down to our last 50 units. This sale ends when they run out or 1700 CST today, whichever comes first.
