AR-15 BS Thread

I take it you figured out your barrel conundrum?

 

Exactly haha!

 

I did - ended up getting the barrel from Primary. The Wylde barrels I was looking at on Gunbroker either didn't list the ramp configuration...or I just was missing it. The Ar15 5.56 barrels had it plain as day.

 

did you end up getting your go/no go gauges?

 

Did some camoing to day!

 

Looks good! What Bipod is that? Why no threads for a suppressor?

 

Thank you, thats the $36 nock off on eBay. (little bit of love here, little bit love there, & she's solid as a rock!) took the other $210 and bought the turret matched scope. No threads because that"s one of the first Ruger American 17HMR'S to hit the market before they offered it. I haven't put them on because Ive been to busy doing customers gun's. But I guess I could have done it while I was threading the bolt though.

 

Col., Is your barrel already dimpled for the low profile gas block? If not, I used this gig and it worked perfectly. I used a Yankee hill, its position is all the way back to the barrel sleeve. Be advised Not all low profile blocks are like that.

I went with a JP low profile that wraps around the barrel and is secured with 4 screws underneath - dimpling won't work. It has the capability of drilling the barrel to use a roll pin for extra security but I'm not going to be beating this thing around enough to need that. I've got it secured now - once I test-fire it, I'll use Loctite on the screws before I adjust it.

 

No, I found someone locally to check it for me.

 

This is the bipod

That is a beautiful rifle!!

 

Ready to go to the range to test fire and then adjust the gas block.

 

Very nice!.......range?? You mean you can't walk out your back and let-er rip?

 

And if anybody says anything about his FDE not matching! Ill send you his e-mail so you can send him the funds to make it all match!!!
I don't think the intruder is going to ding him for it!

 

The color match is actually closer than the pic shows - I had to lighten it up since I took it using my phone in the basement. I'll get an outdoor picture today...and, yes, I can pretty much walk out the door and shoot. I have a 125 yard range set up on our property.

 

While looking at your finished rifle, I thought! the beige camo rattle can from H.D. would finish off that mag and bipod real nice like!
(thats the under tone of the camo rifle from yesterday)

 

Well then let-r-rip tater chip! LOL

 

I have an FDE Magpul bi-pod on order and just ordered some 10 round magazines for under it.

 

Nothing says howdy neighbor, like a 223 @ 7:12 in the morning!............ Hell they shouldn't be sleeping any way! were not!............ I started off @ 4:00 in the morning smoking a pork shoulder.
