Dedicated .22LR barrels are 1 in 16 twist, so whatever barrel is close will work better. As a side note, original M16 barrels were 1 in 12 twist. Another thing to remember when using a .22LR kit with your .223/5.56 barrel is that .22LR bullets are actually .221 and so are slightly undersize for you barrel. Some people also say that the lube used on .22LR bullets can accumulate in the barrel gas port after repeated firings, so you need to pay attention to that when you go back to .223/5.56.

Doods! The guy asked for a "AR bible".... Twice! You will need an assembly guide. This is the one I have. The AR-15 Complete Assembly Guide, Volume 2" Book by Walt Kuleck with Clint McKee Vol 2 You can get it at ebay, amazon, Midway USA Rertails at about $20, but street price is lower. If you want build ideas/configurations/pics etc. something like the "Gun Digest book of The AR-15" by Patrick Sweeney will help. I got my copy from Boarders in a cheap sale! Heck, just go to places like Midway's book section and you sell lots of AR-15 guides.

GREAT!! Now my laptop is covered with pee!!

I'll bet that setup isn't legal in NJ. 1) Barrel too short 2) Multiple pistol grips 3) Big Bullet Blasting Belts of more than 15rds

Here's another one to think about. These rules all mention below/beneath/under the 'action' of the firearm. What if the grip was below/beneath/under the barrel as in a bullpup gun?

As supplied the wedges have lots of extra material to account for the differences in receivers, so much filing/dremeling will be needed. The material used is more rubber than plastic, so chunks braking off is unlikely in the firearm. However, I would probably replace it every few years just in case age or solvent has affected it somehow.

I believe the wedge does have an impact on accuracy, especially at long range as the cant will effect the bullet impact point. It may be small, but it is there. And besides, nobody likes things that wobble, it just doesn't give the impression of quality.

I've heard others mentioned this before. Do you know if this interpretation based on a certain document/ruling etc. or is it urban legend?

Magwell too low in the gun; really slow realoading. Cool looking none the less.

Mine has crossed rifles with pistols in the background.

Unless you absolutely know what you are doing, never restore/polish any antique/valuable object. Real collectors always look for orginality and if thay wanted to they would get the work done themselves. Like my army CWO used to say; "You can't un-fu*k a woman!" I would leave it AS-IS and also be sure you keep the paper it was wrapped in.

Doing squats does wonders for your a$$!

Racing diff oil. Filmy but stinka like sh*t!

No disrespect intended, but shouldn't the 'guest' spots be made available to forum members first?

A muzzle brake/comp.

Looks like it will be something 20ga. I'll take her to Cheyanne sometime soon and check out their stuff. Thanks for the input guys.

Thanks. I did consider getting a POF 308, but decided it would be more fulfulling this way. It wasn't too bad considering and can you say "Refund anticipation"!

Haha. She didn't actually say she needed it to be a 12ga, that was my idea. LOL! She's fired my 12ga OU and does ok with it, but would indeed prefer a semi auto.

My wife (5'2") is looking to get a general purpose 12ga semi auto shotgun with interchangeable chokes. Budget is $700 or less and good used is ok too. Appreciate any help.

Just completed! LR-308 - 18" Rainier Ultramatch barrel - Troy MRF rail & alum stubby front grip - PWS brake - SI-Defense billet matched receivers power coated FDE - Std. DPMS BCG - Burris XTM 3-12x scope - Geissele super dynamic trigger - Magpul CTR & MIAD - BCM gunfighter charging handle (med latch)

You can get it directly from their agent in GA. http://www.lothar-walther.de/473.php

Props to you if you want to build your own gun. With that said, here are my opinions. - A BCG should include a firing pin. - Consider getting a free float handguard. - A LPK will include a pistol grip. - 16" carbine barrels start at about $125. I recommend a Walther SS M4 profile at $175 - You can assemble a buffer assembly kit for less that what you stated. - You will need a barrel wrench and an upper receiver vice block. A vice is optional if you are willing to bolt the block to a plank!

For your barrel I suggest Lothar Walther M4 Stainless - $175 http://www.lothar-walther.de/473.php For the gas block. YHM Specter 0.750. Will fit the above barrel.
