  1. I just picked up a set of Diamondhead signts. This set specifies that it is good for the gas block. Found them at Stag. Got free shipping on them on the 4th. (Just love the good ole American companies). Anyhow, all my research showed that although costly, you need to spend the bucks to get a good quality folding sight that will stay accurate over time. I am not saying Diamondhead is the only way to go, several others have suggested ones that kept comming up as an excellent product during my research.
  2. Thanks Lunker, just got 25. As i lost my gat said, the free shipping put me over the top. I just ordered from sportsmans guide yesterday (25 boxes), but this was a tad cheaper shipped. Wish i had more $ i would buy more...LOL Thanks again!
  3. Thanks for the response AS350 Driver. The crimped primers shouldnt be a problem. I plan on buying the dillon super swage tool real soon. Anyone know if this is the same brass as PMC Bronze? Anyone know where it is made? Shawnmoore - Can we get in on this deal?
  4. Anyone here reloaded using these cases? I saw a deal on 1k but wasnt sure about the quality of the brass for reloading. Where is this made?
  5. I recently looked at a 57. One of the things that turned me away was the 10 round mag for NJ. If I was living in a less communist state I may have gone for it as it was a sweet gun. In the end, I opted for the FNP45 tactical. This is a very similar gun in 45, and it carries 15 rounds of the tried and true 45 acp. As others have indicated, your intended use should play into the equation.
  6. Sabeast, Many of the members above have provided excellent locations, most of which are active in this forum. For me, the distance would be a factor. In my case, Bullseye and the guild are both nearby. I prefer to frequant Bullseye tactical in woodbridge for two reasons. 1. Chris (the owner) is a great guy and is truly trying to help us out. 2. chris's prices seem to be better than the guild in rahway. That said, i would buy a gun (and have in the past) from the guild if Bullseye was not in Woodbridge. So again, it is nice to support the dealers that support this forum, especially if they are nearby and offer good service and value, which the members above have indicated.
  7. "But now you need tools to break down the AR. Also, there are many reviews that have this pin loosening during firing, making the problem worse. If he uses a quality electrical tape rated for high temps he should be good. And the insulating qualities will allow you to shoot in lightning storms, the likes of which always happen during the zombies." Now thats funny:-) Anyhow, as most of you have stated, this is a common situation with the AR type gun. In the end, the tape will prolly fall off and I will give up my anal worries of this little bit of play that really doesnt hurt a darned thing. BTW RAZ-0...I do like the option you presented. I did not see any size options for the AR10, which has larger and longer pins. Thanks, Howard
  8. I also did check into the acuwedge. They seem cheep enough. I read that Colt actually puts them in some guns from the factory. I did read though that some think this plastic is going to melt if the gun is really used, although that was not validated by others.
  9. Yes, Brownells does sell an adjustable pin. I have placed a pic. below. As I have read, the play does not affect the accuracy (although the writeup on Brownells does say it increass accuracy). Honestly, my research on the web kinda showed consensis that this will not adversly affect accuracy. To be honest, I am not that good of a shooter yet, so I really couldnt put this to the test. The only reason that I trusted tape is because I feel that this problem is only cosmetic (in other words, it bothers me). If I thought it would affect accuracy, I think I would purchase the .001 oversize pins that Armalite sells. Thank you all for your responses. Howard
  10. I have recently gotten into the whole AR thing (I think it is a sickness as you cannot just buy 1). First I purchased a Stag in 6.8spc. This is a real sweet gun. It has "0" play between the 2 halves. Then I purchased an AR10 by Armalite in 308. On this gun, which otherwise seems well made, there is a bit of annoying play between the halves with the pins in place. I have read a large amount on this topic, and the consensus is that this does not affect accuracy one bit. I do understand this completely, however, I cannot stand the feeling I get when the 2 halves show movement. Again, I did a bunch of searching on the web. Some use oversized pins (Armalite actually sells them), but others say you should not use the oversize pins. I came across a guy that put O-rings around the pin boss. I thought this was an excellent idea and tried it, to no avail (I guess my play is very small). Then I came across a guy that used scotch tape on the parting surfaces. This too seemed like a great idea. I tried this. I was shocked that the thickness of 2 pieces of tape on top of each other on the parting surface completely removed all play. I had a problem with that though - you could see this cheesy tape. So, I took the same approach, but used black electrical tape. The thickness of one layer of tape completely eliminated all play. In fact, it was even tight when pushing in the rear pin. Now, all play is gone and one cannot even see the tape. I think I can live with this repair. Anyone have any similar experience?

  12. First off, good luck and happy shooting. Ruger makes a fine gun for the money. Anyhow, i must tell you, when i opeded the picture, the first thing i saw was the made in the USA sticker. I was sold right there! I have recently purchased several firearms, including 2 pistols. ALL were made here in the good ole USA. And, imagine this, they all work like a clock, including my new Ruger SR40. Enjoy!
  13. Chris at Bullseye Tactical on main street Woodbridge is a Stag dealer. He would be more than happy to order one up for you. His prices are good as well. I have a complete Stag upper on order right now with him...expect it any day as a matter of fact. I can also say that i currently own 2 Stag ars and the quality looks to be real good.
  14. Looks like the beginnings of a sweet gun. I currently have an upper on order as well. I ordered it from a local gun shop but it is a stag in 6.8spc...cant wait either!! Enjoy!
  15. Good looking gun...now for the fun part...shooting it! Good luck.
  16. I just took delivery of a Stag 1L. Fit and finish look GREAT. Have not shot it yet so I cannot comment there. Also just ordered a 7L, which is 6.8spc. Has not arrived yet but it was in stock. Stag apperently has one of the lowest waiting times as they recently increased the size of their manufacturing area. They are made in the USA. They are a newer company in the ar game, but i have read that they have been making parts for other companies in the ar game for a long time. For me, the selling point was that they had a left handed model, and it was in stock. Also looked at the S&W but it was $500 more and in right handed. I have done a lot of research on the web, and found very few people that had a problem with them...for the money, they seem a good deal. One additional piece of info that i did not have when I "pulled the trigger" (pun intended) is that stag offers a plus package on the 5.56 models. The plus package on a complete gun is $100. Everyone that talks about the Stag on the net says that this is a steal for what you are getting. This package is also offered on most uppers and lowers that Stag sells as well. None in the 6.8 spc though.
  17. Maksim, Thanks for setting this deal up. I know it was work on your end and you need to know that we all appreciate it!! **Thanks again**
