Brownell's barrel
I know that few manufacturers machine their own barrels and fewer still make their own blanks, what I was saying is that barrels branded by Noveske and Ranier are top notch barrels. I liked those because I could not find DD barrels online, gave up after about 2 min of searching, I am sure they are out there. Without a good barrel, whats the point.

Brownell's barrel
i would rather wait for a good quality barrel then buy something sub-pas just because its available. buy once, cry once... even if you have to wait. In stock right now: http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=3051 http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=3680 http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=2400 http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=3052

Boy do I need help with using my scope
by setting your scope for 100 yards I assume the paralex knob? dont forget that the paralex seting if marked for 100y is only an aproximate, adjust paralex until you do not see any reticle movement then proceed as other's have already said.

Brownell's barrel
with so many quality manufacturers making good barrels, why take the chance? Noveske, DD, Ranier and so on... why look further?

anyone notice the gun buyback pictures?
So why are we not lining up there with cash to pick some of the good firearms off the line before they get to the turn in?

High End Optics in Nj?
I rember going to a King of Prussia gun show and seeing the NF 2.5-10x32 before I bought one but I don't rember seeing SB/Steiner/Kahles (though this was before Steiner and Kahles started making these scopes again) I know EuroOptic is in PA, but I couldn't figure out of they had a storefront or not. Might have to call 'em. I think they may offer a Hide discount lol. Thanks for the heads up guys. Its impossible to find much of anything worth while in NJ I know, but one can also save on taxes buying online. Just hate paying for something that expensive sight-unseen.

High End Optics in Nj?
Does anyone carry high end optics in Nj? I am looking at either the S&B PMII 5-25 MSR, Steiner Military 5-25 MSR or the Kahles 624i (soon to release their MSR) I'm finding it hard to spend $3k+ without holding it in my hand, feeling the clicks as looking through the glass. Does anyone carry these guys in NJ? I work in NYC and was thinking of checking out B&H since they carry them on the website but it does not appear that they have them in the store based on the delivery times quotes on the site, could be wrong, may have to give em a call.

Optic opinions
Isn't Ft Dix 200y not 300? Anyway, I have a 12" round steel plate that I hit all day long with a 16/14.5" AR and a AimPoint M3 slinging shitty Russian ammo. At 200 yards, an non magnified optic zero'ed at 50y is more than enough for minute of man accuracy with practice.

UH oh. Problems with my AR-Any smiths in East Brunwsick Area?
A chemical way of ensuring the castle nut does not back off will not be as good as a mechanical way. Solvens and oils used in the maintenance of the weapon will eat away at the lock tight pretty quickly. If you shoot 300 or 400 rounds a year, you may not have a problem for several years and by then you will possibly even change the stock. If you shoot several thousand rounds a year that castle nut will walk off pretty quickly... There is a reason why weapons that run many rounds such as the ones in military hands are staked rather than having a few drops of threrad sealer used. No offence, a $30 end plate is not worth having my weapon fail due to the catsle nut walking. I have two rifles with ASAP plates and two with Noveske QDs and all 4 are staked.

UH oh. Problems with my AR-Any smiths in East Brunwsick Area?
Im in EB if ur still having problems... Id be willing to lend u a hand on the weekend if you need it. Im confused... Staking the castle nut is what you are supposed to do, and you dont and are proud of it?

Opinions on the Bushie M4A3?
I've run quite a few thousand rounds through mine, maybe 10K by now. Upgraded to a BCM Bolt - BM Bolt is not HPT/MPI, staked the gas key better - original staking sucked, installed H-buffer then H2 - the gas port its too big/gun is overgassed, replaced the crazy long factory pinned stock with a mil-spec buffer and pinne MOE stock with the correct length carbine spring. Other than that, installed a free float rail, optic and so on... The BM rifle is not of the quality of LMT/Noveske/Colt/BCM/LaRue/KAC but it was a good first rifle. It is not a backup to the PredatAR. Go out and shoot! Enjoy!

Went to Range 14 for the first time
+1. I loved the edict that atendees could not wear anything camo was a bit silly. Smokin, I stand by what I said, just like OBRPC does not want black rifle training was a bit of an F-Off to a large portion of the firearm owning community. This is what sucks about the firearms comminity in my opinion, instead of uniting because we are all enthusiasts, be it duck or deer hunters, Mil/LEO, benchrest... whatever it may be, we pick camps and ostracise the other group. Its silly.

Approximately 600 mags being shipped to dealers next week
Agreed, and we are free to not buy from them. For instance, I am willing to wait for you to have them on your website in order to not to pay more than I feel is appropriate.

+1 MTN Armory
i have some of their mags. cant reverse the mod without a drill or drill press to drill out the rivet, but the bottom plate is removable. The follower is not removable nor is the spring. Can not load more than 15 rounds.

Went to Range 14 for the first time
not my story to tell. sorry. Never said members could not use ARs at the club... I am talking about training, not practice.

Went to Range 14 for the first time
Ive been going to R14 for about 2.5 years now. Something deffinatly changed over the last year and they have become a lot more Nazi about the "rules" Having to place steel targets at only the 200yard line is abit annoying but on the other hand, I use steel for shooting at as long a distance as I can so I would more than likely place it at 200yards anyway. Making sure the tarket swings is annoying as well, they need a serious lesson in physics if they think bullet fragments will travel 200yards back to the firing line if the piece of steel does not sway. All of a sudden this year they started asking about my magazines and if the stocks were pinned... never did that before. I have no problem with that but its the first time, at any range I was asked that, and being asked every cease fire is a bit excessive. having said that, it is without a doubt the best bang for the buck. I would love it if it was 500 or 600 yards, but hey, it is what it is. I live in EB, and would rather drive to R14. OBRPC has a nice facility for sure, but it's half the distance of R14. If you want to practice weapon manipulation and shooting on the move, there is no better place than a private club for sure. Ever since OBPRC prohibited training with those evil black rifles on their premises, they can F-Off. I would never give a dime of my money to them.

FTF on steel ammo
you need a lighter buffer. the bolt is short cycling and not stripping the next round. at least that is what it sounds like the problem is. this is odd because as a generality, BM have larger than needed gas ports causing them to be over gassed, not undergassed. shooting Wolf almost exclusivly I had to put a heavier buffer in my BM (carbine gas system) Your gun being a 20" barrel, I would imagine having a rifle length gas system. Do you have an A1/A2 stock with a rifle buffer?

Collapsible stock question
with a non SBR'ed barrel there is no way an AR will ever be below the 26" requirement with a stock. Even pinned all the way closed you should be fine. I have all my stocks pinned one notch from fully collapsed only to access the end plate sling mount. Had I not needed that I would have pinned them fully collapsed.
