Roll pins are the fucking bane of my existence

@Confused roll pin hell
Message permalink: 723242778645102672
There's one that's used for my safety selector. I got one in, and the other is almost through but just stopped completely
Message permalink: 723243047315439756
Is it an ar I thought the only roll pins were the bolt catch and trigger guard
Message permalink: 723244462243053619
Oh I see what you mean, an after market safety
Message permalink: 723244552491892748
I have a noveske and a bad safety selector and didn’t have issues
Message permalink: 723244717961379880
I'm using a forward controls design safety. If I manage to get the roll pin in, it'll be bombproof
Message permalink: 723247808941129729
Had to get to my second job though. I'll take a look at it when I get home. The roll pin might be damaged
Message permalink: 723252253531701259
I think what I'll do is remove the pin, get a spare, pinch the tip slightly, and dip it in aeroshell
Message permalink: 723253554185240616
Are Magpul irons any good? My cousin bought a front/rear set of MBUS as his only way of aiming.
Message permalink: 723254022076891218
Have you seen the punches that are actually a hollow starter?
Message permalink: 723254185805611219
They aren’t bad @Potatoes O'Reilly
Message permalink: 723254273407975424
I prefer iron though, either Troy or the magpul pro’s

In the A tier, what brand is that big B between BCM and Armalite?
Message permalink: 723256844285378571
Barrett

Ohhh duh. I recognize it now that you say it lol
Message permalink: 723257075484065884
Haha I don’t usually see it without the full name
Message permalink: 723257142836199485
That chart has a lot wrong with it
Message permalink: 723257512845115474
It’s an ok start but there is a bit that can be moved around
Message permalink: 723257634563817512
Cool thing about the safety selectors is that the selector acts as a pin starter, it's just the middle part that the pin has to drive through
Message permalink: 723257811655589969
Yeah. I'm just looking at brand after brand for parts. Trying to find parts I like without having to take out a mortgage.
Message permalink: 723257819503001723
What parts are you needing recommendations on?
Message permalink: 723257977234128956
Hell, I made a damn good rifle build that comes out to around 1400 if you're interested. Unless you're looking for cheaper.
Message permalink: 723258002693554218
@DirtyBird ambi safety, ambi mag release, bolt catch. I think I'm going with FCD detents, springs and pins. High end stuff, but those parts don't break the bank.
Message permalink: 723258623324848270
@Sparrow to be honest I haven't really figured a budget out because I have no idea what upper I want
Message permalink: 723259130017611797
Primaryarms.com is a great spot to look
Message permalink: 723259653252841492
Fcd for the price is actually really not bad. It’s not cheap but they are drastically above most other stuff that is in the same price range
Message permalink: 723260764722430054
If you're building your own, I'd probably go with Aero.
Message permalink: 723261559379591229
Aero receivers are gtg I havent tried any other parts from them

I know Larue can be over gassed but it is still quality and this is a fairly inexpensive kit for what you get. Just add a lower

Message permalink: 723263068200632321
Isn't it supposed to be an upper only?
Message permalink: 723263111993491487
It is a whole kit. Lower parts kit, stock and upper
Message permalink: 723263228947333240
Ooooh, got ya.
Message permalink: 723263279920840784
Everything without the lower receiver.
Message permalink: 723263298157674589
So basically, you just need a stripped lower?
Message permalink: 723263329404977223
If so... that's a decent price for sure.
Message permalink: 723263374611316739
Yep I don’t know why they call it the

The Larue trigger is phenomenal for the money too
Message permalink: 723263486225940501
Only 99 bucks
Message permalink: 723263564139462688
They do a large frame kit for $1200 308 and 6.5 creedmore
Message permalink: 723263627326390354
You're looking at twice of that easily for a CMC or Geissele

Message permalink: 723263935989547039
The Larue shorty actually looks nice.
Message permalink: 723264024254349313
I swapped the stock because I didn’t want to sbr
Message permalink: 723264026766868481
I like long handguards.
Message permalink: 723264058995769435
What lower are you using?
Message permalink: 723264131859218452
My Pistol is a PSA, gross I know, lol.
Message permalink: 723264163597778984
But it was the easiest to get at the time.
Message permalink: 723264194102689846
And I put upgrades in it.
Message permalink: 723264240055746580
The only thing is the upper and hand guard are proprietary. So I would have to change upper receiver if I changed handguard
Message permalink: 723264262323306555
Oh are they? That can be annoying.
Message permalink: 723264329536766073
It looks like a bastard child of a noveske/smos upper and a DD rail
Message permalink: 723264507673182218
There is nothing wrong with psa if you know how to upgrade it and check tolerances... you just have to know that their qc sucks and you have to look over everything
Message permalink: 723264537440157747
Or vltor upper I guess
Message permalink: 723264541051322488
It’s mlok on three sides and rail on top
Message permalink: 723264681837592617
I've passed up on so many DD rifles and lowers... I don't even know why, it just rubs me the wrong way.
Message permalink: 723264691865911337
I'd rather get a PSA

One of the reviews said it would but I wanted to double check
Message permalink: 723264861068329020
Yeah, it fits on a 320

Literally says it in the Specs

I know lmao

I’m saying for co witness

Pfft, Co-witness is gay
Message permalink: 723265032636596254
Didn’t know if there was a better option
Message permalink: 723265062638452818
Hardly a reason to get a red dot if you are gonna co-witness... may as well just use the sights, lol.
Message permalink: 723265212492415016
I was told coworkers is good to have
Message permalink: 723265317593415700
Co witness
Message permalink: 723265338632044584
If you're gonna cowitness, I'd suggest lower 1/3
Message permalink: 723265379862052889
I get using sights as a reference point and for backups.
Message permalink: 723265382604996709
We're talking pistol.
Message permalink: 723265418130882713
Not AR
Message permalink: 723265426511102083
Ah
Message permalink: 723265438070341725
Yeah just as a backup
Message permalink: 723265492986626061
Oh, well as pure backups... then suppressor height sights should be just fine.
Message permalink: 723265570958737471
@Confused dont mean to interrupt, but id love to pick up our conversation from last night
Message permalink: 723266028125159584
Shoot, what were we talking about? I was exhausted then
Message permalink: 723266400302530620
Understandable, the difference between 300 WM and 338LM and the platforms that support them
Message permalink: 723266757124554792
Ballistics, felt recoil and such topics were all on the table last night
Message permalink: 723266918978420828
Long story short, both will fuck you up. Lol
Message permalink: 723267107134898186
Haha that’s a good point. I’m not well versed on the large calibers so I’ll back out on this one
Message permalink: 723267253210054706
Depends on what you want to do, both have their quirks
Message permalink: 723267426099396628
.338 Holds more energy as well, it's a slightly larger round with more powder behind it.
Message permalink: 723267506776572027
300wm is a pretty ancient round that happens to have good ballistics
Message permalink: 723267605334327406
*cough* Ballistic Coefficient
Message permalink: 723267631720824873
Yes, and the felt recoil even in a 20lb rifle is downright vicious
Message permalink: 723267633344020480
300wm is gonna be a cheaper gun and ammo
Message permalink: 723267654911131780
> Yes, and the felt recoil even in a 20lb rifle is downright vicious @[MI] LawlessHawk get a muzzle brake
Message permalink: 723267768173985953
The 338 Lapua shoots larger diameter and heavier bullets that are generally more aerodynamic than the bullets the 300 Win Mag uses. The two cartridges have a similar trajectory at normal hunting ranges, but typical 338 Lapua loads have 30-40% more muzzle energy. The 338 Lapua has nearly twice as much recoil energy though.
