Also I was on the phone with Henry Chan of 9 Hole Reviews the other day and he said the PSL outshot the dragunov on their 1000 meter range! Say what you will, but the PSL is a badass gun.

Alex C. Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 So I failed to meet my weight goal on a lightweight AR build: So I said fuck it and turned it into a thermal equipped death machine. No hogs, armadillos, coyotes, foxes, etc. are safe. LoooSeR and Stimpy75 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex C. Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 8 minutes ago, Sturgeon said: What was your weight goal? Where are you at right now? The rifle was 5 pounds 15.8 ounces. I wanted it to be 5 pounds 10-12 ounces. When I weighed my factory Colt carbine I kind of gave up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturgeon Posted July 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Your barrel looks maybe a bit heavier than it could be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex C. Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 5 minutes ago, Sturgeon said: Your barrel looks maybe a bit heavier than it could be? Agreed. It was advertised as a pencil barrel by Aero Precision. Certainly isn't as thin as an SP1 barrel but I haven't busted out the calipers.

Ulric Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 I'm working on an improved magazine, with a modified version of the previous feed tower architecture I tested. I had to reinforce the feed lips to do this, so I made this test assembly to check the feed lip / bolt carrier clearance. So far so good. I was talking to some other people in the industry about this on Saturday. They are big fans of Hexmag, so I told them that I was developing a new magazine. I jokingly asked if they new anyone with half a million dollars to throw at this project, and dead serious they said they knew a couple people who might be interested. So I've spent a fair amount of today cleaning up the feed lips, and I reconstructed the AR bolt carrier is SW (I already had the bolt group from a different project.)

ApplesauceBandit Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 I don't think I ever posted my especially shiny B76 in here. I also managed to get quite the rare catch recently as well (which is very similar to another recent acquisition). Had a lot of overcast skies lately, so have been able to snag less shitty pics.
