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).- KYtoMD

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...- KYtoMD

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. -

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.- KYtoMD

Triggers,
Some pretty good sales this week. Geissele G2S for $99 for Cyber Monday. Heck, even their top-end Hi-Speed National Match is only $195, which is really tempting my wallet.- KYtoMD

AR10 BCG compatibility?
Thanks! I'm likely going to go for the M5E1 builder set and then build around that. Was looking at BA Premium barrels since they're heavily discounted right now ($189 for the 20" Premium heavy 308 profile), but it seems like opinions have been mixed as of late. Something about their quality... -

AR10 BCG compatibility?
Have been doing some research on AR10 builds. Seems like for lowers/uppers, it's best to stick with one brand for both. Also seems like handguards need to match up with the upper receiver pattern (DPMS low vs high). Are there any issues with AR10 BCG compatibility? For example, if I use an... -

"Rumor" heard at Cabelas...
Was just at the Delaware Cabela's recently and they still had a solid selection of stuff in stock. Prices are actually not bad if you picked up some of their gift cards earlier this year when they were discounting them 20%.
