Hi,

I'm new here. I built a 6.8 last summer on a Model 1 barrel. Now I find out I'm over stabilizing. But how in-accurate can this be? I'm looking around at 1:11 barrels and the price of them is $100 less than it cost to put the whole 6.8 together.

So now I'm thinking of a 7.62x39, Anyone have any pointers of feeding and magazines?

Thanks,

Bill

    Here it is. Don't know anything about Gorilla company or the gas block. But, it is easy forward access and cheap. My price range. Got one on the way. Might be worth a look. https://www.gorillamachining.com/Gorilla-Machining-AR-15--Gen-2-Low-Profile-Adjustable-Gas-Block-Black-Nitride-_p_525.html

  3. New shotgun and looking for opinions on sights

    General Long Gun Discussion
    I've been in search for a new shotgun to use for hog hunting. All I have is an 870 with a field barrel and took a hog with it this past year. Tree stand hunting with that barrel was a challenge. My cousin loaned me his 1187 Police and I decided I needed something like that in my life after...

  5. Found this, hopefully it makes for a peaceful discussion or Opinion article

    General Long Gun Discussion
    Keeping the AR-15 (and M4 carbine) gas system running. Posted by: Grant Cunningham I’m constantly amazed at the number of people who believe that the gas impingement system of the AR-15 rife and M4 carbine is somehow a liability. So strong is this belief that there is today a growing...

  6. QPQ AR extensions - As bad as we think???

    General Long Gun Discussion
    So, I'm seeing lots of AR barrels out there with QPQ extensions. They tout that the two pieces (barrel and extension) are finished separately then assembled to avoid torque issues. My concern is the fact that (as we've discussed here before) the QPQ process softens the material of the...
