      New AR Owner Questions

      Your current AR has a 16" with a carbine length gas system, which leads to a system that is significantly overgassed. The M16 you qualified with had a 20" barrel with a rifle length gas system, which is not nearly as overgassed of a system. Carbine length gas systems (gas port at 7 inches) were...

      AR-10 .308 gas system lengths ?

      Either one should be fine, as long as you get an adjustable gas block (and all AR10s should have one).

      Anyone using a Criterion HBAR Barrel?

      Their HBAR barrels should perform just as well as the other profiles. All of them are button-rifled and then hand-lapped for consistency. IIRC HBAR Criterion barrels are pretty popular in high power competition.

      LaRue MBT $87

      I would say the break on the MBT is actually better than an SSA. The reset is slightly better on the SSA, though.

      Recommendation on Barrel

      With a $300 budget, you can do much better than Faxon. Here's a Criterion 20" HBAR barrel for $300. This is a match-grade, 410R stainless barrel with a hand-lapped bore. https://www.fulton-armory.com/barrelfa20nmhbarss1x8plainmuzzle.aspx If you prefer a different length or if you like chrome...

      LaRue MBT $87

      Can someone who has one of these as well as a Geissele SSA or G2S comment on how they feel compared to each other?

      Kershaw Clash Black SpeedSafe $16.15 @ Amazon

      The Ken Onion Leek is made in the USA and I've seen it go for $25 on sale quite a few times.

      Can't add anything to your cart on Brownells

      When that happens in chrome, I try internet explorer or Microsoft edge and it usually works.

      Black Friday 2018 - Firearm deals & Accessories

      They are not Radian Raptors. Radian themselves confirmed that they used to make them for Stag but no longer do as of about 4 months ago, and that these are knockoffs.

      Vortex Diamondback Tactical FFP Scopes

      Anyone try one of these yet? Seem to tick off a lot of boxes as far as features - FFP, exposed turrets, etched reticles, both MOA and MRAD available. The 4-16x FFP MRAD is being sold for $293 and the 6-24x FFP MRAD is being sold for $335 at Sport Optics with the Black Friday/Cyber Monday...

      Anyone used a Vortex Spitfire 3x?

      I don't have the 3x but do have the 1x Spitfire. For people with astigmatism, you can't beat it for the price. Another benefit - the etched reticle is visible even without illumination, so it is usable without batteries.

      G27 Not Firing - Primer strikes off center

      Do you have any aftermarket parts in the G27? That doesn't look like a typical Glock primer strike, which is usually a rectangular outline with a circular indent in the middle.
