AXTS makes the Raptor for the 308. It'll run about 120 +/-, depending on where you look for it.

Great minds, eh?

I like my regular Raptor so much that I made the decision to put one on my SASS inspired build. Granted, I don't have any parts for it yet, but I'm working on that over time and I have a clear idea as to the parts I want to use.

Jezz it drives me crazy when I see someone carelessly handle a weapon like this.

That is not careless.

Careless is leaving a stuck round in the chamber because you didnt clear it, as you drive home.

I wasn't talking about the gun he cleared.
There are other people on the range.
And, he points a gun within inches of himself, if not closer.

Its just a tool. Not a modern art masterpiece.

I don't care what he does with his tools, until he's careless with where he POINTS the damn thing. (Carefully worded, huh.

)

I saw no muzzle violation on the AK.

Yep. And the stock's butt pad is easy and cheap to replace if it gets boogered up.

I see what you did there.

I agree, technically there was no violation. But, still careless. Others were down range behind his back. He never checked. He lazily drops his rifle off his shoulder using only the strap, and the rifle is certainly pointed in the general direction of where those other folks were, and not under his control while being handled by only the strap. That crap makes me nervous. It might not bother others.

I rest my case. If I were on range with him, I doubt I'd say anything, but I'd certainly keep a watchful eye.

FWF, ARs can be "mortared" horizontally as well. Think vertical post with muzzle pointing down range.

Hey look a video of something I don't understand.....I know!! I'll get all bent out of shape over it!!!

I use a medium length BCM charging handle. You may want an ambi or large depending on your needs.

I have had good results with BCM CH's.
