What I have found in my research prior to ordering all my parts is that even though everyone claims to be building their parts to DPMS "Standards", there really is no standard. A DPMS pattern upper might not fit well with a DPMS pattern lower of a different brand, and a DPMS pattern hand guard might not fit well with a DPMS pattern upper of a different brand. But then again they might all fit perfectly, but from all the posts i've seen online on different boards it is "safer" to get everything of the same brand. Even talking to Stag customer support they told me that even though their LR308 upper and lower are DPMS pattern, only their handguard will fit, which honestly makes no sense to me. If you want to take a change and go with different brands, which most of us would do when building an AR15 without a second thought, it appears to be more of a hit and miss when building an LR308. That is why I personally chose the Aero, the price and online reviews helped me decide. Edit: if you look at other hi end brands such as spikes and F1, they specifically state that their lowers will only fit their uppers, and vise versa.

I also picked up the Aero LPK from primaryarms on sale.

They might not hold it at their drop point but they should be able to hold it at one of their customer counters. You might be able to have them deliver to a neighbors house.

I have one on my SPR also, and I like it better then the standard milspec trigger. I of course have never tried a netter trigger so I don't know how much better it could be. What are the differences between the G2S and the SSA?

Great thanks, I'll wait then

Looks like the Geissele sales have started up again. Looking for the G2S for my LR-308 build. Right now PA has it at the cheapest price at $127.88. I don't remember, was it cheaper last year for the black friday sale?

"Hanson, meanwhile, has said Sophia and its future robot kin will help seniors in elderly care facilities and assist visitors at parks and events." Sounds an awful lot like how iRobot started

The build kit comes with a 15" freefloat handguard, assembled upper, and the take down/pivot pins. And it's a DPMS pattern. So price wise you are not gaining much going with PSA. Mine should be ariving next week.

If you are actively searching, and if they still have any left in stock, you can get the aero precision M5E1 (northern lights) builder set for $450. It's on sale for $499 plus 10% off for new buyers, coupon code SAVE10NOW

If you have the pistol then I would work the exchange with ameriglo directly and go to another LGS.

That's fat bastard to you. Anyway, I took a look at it and it's a bit pricey at $160 for the Gen 2. I was looking at the JP muzzle brake, any experience with that? https://www.midwayusa.com/product/570743/jp-enterprises-standard-compensator-muzzle-brake-308-caliber-5-8-24-thread-925-outside-diameter-threaded-end-stainless-steel

Also, any muzzle brake advice

Combo #69

Ok, so i decided to pull the trigger and thread my barrel, will be cutting it down also. I will be calling T1D tomorrow to make an appointment. So now I need to know, from the experts, what should I cut it down to? This is a 24" shilen match heavy .308 barrel on a savage model 10 action.

Sfp, i can't afford a vortex ffp.

It appears that vortex has a deal going on with optics planet right now, upto 40% off msrp. You won't find that deal on the website though, you need to call them. I just picked up a viper hst, $569 on optics planet site, for $432.

So after watching a few youtube videos i ordered the PA scope from optics planet. Then after watching a few more youtube videos I called optics planet to cancel the order. But I figured since I already have them on the line I might as well ask them if they had any special deals on vortex. Well, I was very surprised, I got the $569 Viper HS-T 4-16x44 for $432 flat. If anyone is in the market for this scope give optics planet a call now!

I ordered all the parts, and everything in coming in, I was actually able to save about $600 buying on sale and using promo codes . So now i'm looking at glass. I currently have 2 Vortex Diamondback HPs on my other guns and am very happy with them, and my budget is within that same price range, under $400. However for this build I wand a 30mm tube with exposed turrets, neither of which the diamondback HP has. It also has to have parallax adjustment and the glass needs to be of good quality, not looking for HD but clear glass at least. I was looking into the Vortex Viper HST as a possible choice but it exceeds my budget, cheapest I have found it is for $490. So while I was doing research, and pulling out what little hair I have left, I came across the Primary Arms 4-14x44 ACSS HUD, which I can get for about $240 with promo code at optics planet. Does anyone have experience with this scope? Is it good, just ok, or a piece of crap? Does anyone have any other suggestions that will satisfy my requirements?

My 3 year countdown began last June. Once my eldest son finishes HS I am outa here. Until then, when my guns and mags become illegal they will find themselves a temporary home with my cousin in PA.

Ok, so I know that toolcraft is the OEM BCG manufacturer for the military as well as many name brands out there today. I found a toolcraft (no name brand) Nitrite .308 BCG for $169.95 on www.joeboboutfitters.com. So is it worth paying $250+ for a name brand? I think I know the answer, just wanted to know what everyone else thinks. Also "This BCG is 100% manufactured in the USA and covered by Toolcraft's lifetime warranty!" Edit: $112.99 on www.monmouthreloading.com

I know, but that is with the weight with a 3-12 scope and ADM mount. For 3 gun that optic would be swapped out as well

I find it ironic that no liberal idiots are able to pick up on the fact that a gun control nut job threaten to SHOOT Dana. If they are truly against firearms then why would they threaten to SHOOT someone? This just proves how insane and dangerous these psychopaths are and just reinforces the genuine need for the ability to defend ourselves.

Husky socket and harbor freight breaker bar. They are not mac or snap-on, but life time warranty. Socket is already replaced and breaker bar will be replaced tomorrow. The funny thing is that a harbor freight impact socket and harbor freight long handle 1/2 inch ratchet were able to handle the last 3 degrees

Nope, probably not. I didn't think it was worth it. Maybe if I ever start shooting 3 gun.

Leverage, 3 foot pipe over the breaker bar handle.
