  1. Hardly think he has been free of repercussions. Are you kidding me?  This guy has been ruined from the get go. Hope none of the people in this thread ever end up in a good shoot only to have every detail of their life, driving record, phone calls, family squabbles, etc. lived out on forums, social media, and the news media.   I have no opinion on George as that case is closed, but it seems like the people that need to ride off into the sunset are the people that feel the need to passionately discuss every minute detail of George Zimmerman.  :bored:
  2. You may have already posted it but for the life of me I can't find it. When is the changeover scheduled?
  3. Yeah, but there will be plenty of meat left over to make jerky.[emoji6] Survival is all about perspective.
  4. Tactical fat. I can last longer than a skinny guy!
  5. ... and yet our President can't seem to figure a way out to defeat them. Interesting.
  6. Yeah, I really wanted that one!
  7. I had bought two of GT's earlier knives as keepsakes for my boys. I decided I needed one for me! Inspired by East_TN_Patriot's bushcraft knife and sheath, I had GT make me one with micarta scales and ETP make me a holster. Incredible work on both ends!
  8. On their AK version they have the option of 3 o'clock. I like this better this way personally. I grip it normally using the rail as a thumb rest. The gas tube/rail is vented at the front 6 o'clock position. I'm anxious to get it to the range, but I suspect you could get real dirty trying a Costa grip.
  9. Not my pic, but this is the keymod. https://www.google.com/search?q=slr+m92&client=ms-android-att-us&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjT__Gtj7XMAhUEyYMKHevzCMYQ_AUICCgC&biw=360&bih=559#imgrc=N0Gv5REChgAOpM%3A
  10. ADM - American Defense.
  11. I've been waiting for a someone to make a nice looking hg for the m92. I had the Manticore Arms Renegade on there for sometime and I really liked it, but the SLR is just a whole other animal. So far I love the thinness of it and the feel in the hand.
  12. Updated with new pics.
  13. True, If the manufacture substitutes the serial number in their books as a replacement. Repairs can't be substituted. Some manufactures won't do that, however and that is why they gave to go through a FFL.
  14. You'd think that, but I couldn't find many either. Seems like it would be easy to get a picture but it's kind of tough. Maybe these will help.
  15. Update. Got the side charging LRBHO upper. NFA's solution is pretty ingenious and simple. I haven't used it with live fire, but just playing around with it, it works will. I did have to bend the lever a bit to get enough leverage. I was a bit concerned how it would hold up long term, but as of now I don't think that will be a problem. Only "problem" I see so far is that due to the lever not having constant tension when the empty mag is removed, the BHO can be disengaged by bumping the receiver. Not major, but something to be aware of.
  16. I built it. This is the second Aero m5 receiver set I've used, so it was a little easier this go round. The big key to the 308 is an adjustable gas block. The GB lets you ignore the issues caused by not having the buffer/buffer spring tuned just right. The Anderson and SLR both let you adjust the setting from the front. That's a big deal. Otherwise, you have to take the handguard off to tune the GB. In my experience an adjustable gas block is the difference between a finicky unreliable gun and a reliable AR308. Aero M5 receivers Aero charging handle, hinge/take down pins, bolt catch KAK 18" SS barrel (midlength) Anderson adjustable GB UTG Pro Slim 13" rail AIM nitride BCG Larue APEG grip MFT stock DPMS 308 buffer spring Radical arms 308 buffer Damage Industries brake (drilled two extra ports on top) Just added a RRA NM trigger
  17. Finally got the Aero M5 308 out to the range. Always love shooting the 308. Very easy to get the Anderson adjustable gas block set up. It adjust from the front, ala SLR's (the best), but cost a lot less. Don't have to take the handguard off to adjust either. Bushnell 4-12 AR BDC dialed in great. Got to do a something with the trigger. Had light primer strikes. Probably due to the JP springs. Gonna get a RRA NM. The KAK barrel ran great! Ran some extra Wolf steel case I had laying around. I figure if I can get that to run, anything will. Here is 10@100 yrds off hand with a bipod. The flyers were all me, but at least I was consistent in my flinching! [emoji2] It was pretty windy as well.[emoji6]
  18. Sure do like those.
  19. No, he just has less ability to hide it. [emoji6] If it weren't for the mag situation, I would have gotten one the cz58's when they first started coming in.
  20. That is correct. New Frontier makes these. They make them for Joe Bob under the "Spartan" logo. They also make them for "Runner Runner Guns" out of Texas. The only differences are the roll marks. The NFA logo is a giant billboard and not my taste. I preferred the Spartan and Joe Bob is probably the easiest one stop place to get all the pieces for that build.
  21. Well just spent some time at the range and I'm tickled pink! Ran flawlessly. Mags dropped free and loaded easily, both Glock factory and KCI (Korean) 33rnd mags. Full mags loaded easily even with a closed bolt. Only had two FTF but that was ammo related. Primers were struck well, just were stubborn. I went through 200 rnds of Herter's brass cased. Even if the LRBHO upper doesn't work, it's still a winner IMO. Very happy with the Spartan lower and KAW Valley 8.5" barrel. Here's 100 rnds off hand both eyes open rapid fire at 25 yards. I know some of you shoot pistols better but I was happy!
  22. That's kind of the hard part. Everywhere is out of them. I filled out a notify by email request with Joe Bob Outfitters and didn't expect to hear anything for awhile, but the lowers popped up the next day every so briefly. Figured I'd grab it while it was there. The uppers still aren't in stock anywhere ATM. 
  23. Will do. NFA is approaching it a little different. Initial word is pretty good. Well see.
