I wouldn't bother with a brake. It's fine the way it is. 5.56 has minimal recoil and non flash hiding brakes just make noise.

Great ar, excellent choice.

I used a fortis rail on my last LR308 build. I'd give it top marks. I also used a Troy alpha rail on my last one. Both very good I think the fortis is a touch nicer. I used this one: https://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=4493

I am going to do it myself. Have quite a bit up and it's fun DIY project.

I have a really big job but I need it done this coming week. I gave the last contractor a 50% deposit a month ago and he hasn't shown up or retuned my calls. I'll have to deal with that separately but first I want to get the job done. It's my back yard, it's a lot of fence with two gates. It was powder coated fencing for my pool. The job was about 8200 bucks to give an idea of scale. If you want to come on out and you can do this job please hit me up. Thanks, Rob

Unless it is some rare irreplaceable item, sell it and get something you would like to use more.

There are no exceptions to the AWB in the form of registrations and grandfathering.

I've seen bunches at Ottomanelli's: spikes, stag, seekins, Wilson combat, patriot ordnance factory, black rain ordnance. They had some matched .308 sets recently too. I was there yesterday and you can build a complete rifle. They had all the parts and a couple Daniel defense barrels left (a 16 and 14.5).

Give us the details on your creation.

The latest creation is an SPR.

Well, it's finally complete and I was able to go shoot after the scope arrived yesterday. I bought a Leupold VX6 1-6 german reticle #4 with Leupold base for a real good deal off of ARFCOM. I have to say I was nervous about the Hiperfire trigger, but man was I loving it. Just a light touch of my finger stage activated the single stage. I'm hooked. I also added the GG&G bipod (wow it wasn't cheap!).

I can't remember who the check is made out to and the amount. Is Division of State Police SBI for 18 bucks? Picked up paper work and the instructions were missing and I can never remember this. And while the form is available for download I could not find any information on the SP website.

I think it's 3.5 second stage. Not 100% sure. I love that stock but timing is everything.

I'd have done the Luth-AR but they were out of stock. I'm always worried in how long it takes to get black gun parts. I like the trigger but for SPR I did a single stage hyper fire medium springs. My CQ is in 300 aac with 14.5" barrel and uses a Giesele SSA-E. The Giesele kit is great stuff so you won't be disappointed. Looks like great specs you've got. The optic to me is tricky. I just solicited a bunch of advice in another thread. I went with a 1-6 optic. I considered going with two optics like a 3-9 and then an RMR mounted on the side or top for closer targets. What I've also learned is that any decent optics in 1-4, 1-6 that are tactical ain't cheap. I have a trijcon accupoint on my .308 SPR which I may sell for a higher magnification.

I bought a used Leupold VX6 1-6 for a great price. Mounted but never taken out for use. I ordered a Larue QD SPR mount 30mm for it.

Oh definitely but it's at a level where you see lots of stuff like Trijicon and Elcan type stuff. I'm one of those folks that thinks $1 is really money.

I was looking at the march when I commented. It was 3k.

Anyone looked at the Leupold HAMR?

Yikes that is some price on the March. I said liberal not garish! LOL.

I've unfortunately had to unload a few refills but I've managed to hold onto my SPR that I just finished except for optic. Since it's one of my only remaining rifles the budget is liberal. My first thought was a 3x9 trijicon accupoint and then the RMR mounted at off center. Then I thought about a vortex PST. I'd like something that reflects the use of an SPR, which is flexibility in my view. I figure this is a crowd that should have some really good opinions. Cheers, Rob

I live 1.5 miles from there and I hear that it's very nice.

Can you do that on AR receivers?

OK--that's what I'll do. thanks for the help.

I just re-barreled an upper and I thought it was good practice to check the headspace. I know there's nothing I can do but I'm happy to take some advice. I properly twice torqued the nut. Thanks!

I have a WOA .223 Wylde SPR barrel. I know Wylde chambered barrels can shoot .223 or 5.56. Which headspce gauge should is use, .223 or 5.56, or does it matter? Thanks, Rob
