    Suggestions for AR-10

    Thanks for the responses. Firearms like POF's P308 are able to keep their piston .308 sub 9 pounds and maintain accuracy. I was just wondering if there were any others out there that were not quite so expensive. "A used POF P-308 will do better than MOA, and I've seen them for around...

    Suggestions for AR-10

    I am looking for an AR in .308 that is a piston gun with ~1.5 MOA accuracy and is relatively light. I would like to keep it sub $2000. I have not found many such rifles. It seems DPMS, Armalite, and similar builds are all heavy, and DI guns. The Sig 716 looks tempting but I haven't...

    AR Barrel nut removal. Finding out the hard way.

    Yeah I know, No worries. I am experimenting and having fun with it. "One day" I will have the cash to do everything the right way. For now, I will have to humor myself with my mistakes here and there. Sorry, no video, but maybe next time! As for the Troy wrench, the TRX has its own...

    AR Barrel nut removal. Finding out the hard way.

    For those interested in installing a foregrip, you might want to prepare yourself. I thought I was just going to buy a barrel nut wrench and screw that puppy off. After some research and personal trial and error, I realize that many brands of new AR's have this thing torqued down REALLY tight...

    What to know about AR Handguards?

    Well I ended up going with a Troy TRX Extreme. Found one for under $150, and it was the lightest rail I found. I was really tempted to keep the FBS but I may use the rifle for coyote/varmint hunting and didn't want anything distorting a magnified optic. I think I will end up going with Troy...

    What to know about AR Handguards?

    Any idea why the Troy alpha rails with the flip sights are not compatible with midlength systems? I would think if the gas block was slim enough, it would work on the 13"

    What to know about AR Handguards?

    No, I don't plan to mount much. Basically an angled foregrip and sights. I don't know much about the MOE handguard. I know its plastic and not sure if thats a good sturdy foundation for sights, but maybe you could educate me otherwise. I will probably use a single point sling, so I am not...

    Modifying the AR gas block

    I recently bought a PSA mid-length rifle which came with a GI FSB. First of all I intend to get rid of that one way or the other and run Troy BUIS. I would like to keep the sight radius stretched out reasonably far. This is my first AR, so know this is coming from an absolute novice. My...

    What to know about AR Handguards?

    I recently purchased my first AR style rifle. I went with a midlength PSA. I am looking to mount a 10" or a 12" handguard but am not sure what to look for. Ultimately I would like to stay below $200. I know on my hunting rifles, I have always tried to move towards a free floating system...
