Re: Pistol-Length Gas Tube

An adjustable gas block really helps. Makes it easy to tune the rifle to subsonic and supersonic loads with just a few clicks using an allen wrench

Re: Need Assistance with New 300 BLK Build!!

What is the intended application for your rifle? Home defense? hunting? plinking? experimental forway into something other than 5.56? I used to want a Piston build, but the more I researched it, I decided against it. I'm very happy with the DI build. It can shoot supers and subs, suppressed or unsup...

Re: Subsonic Defense Ammunition

I wanted the 300 blk sbr for home defense. There's grizzly bears in my backyard so that complicates the home defense. I have tried 225 gr bthp near max loads (11.4 gr lil gun with 11.8 being published max) out of a 8.5 inch barrel. They cycle fine, but I'm pretty sure they won't expand. Against a bi...

I did have an issue early on where I would load a magpul gen 3 mag with 30 rounds and when I inserted the mag a...

Re: AR-15 300 BLK picture thread..........

This was a lot of time and effort, but I finally got it to work. Functions reliably suppressed or unsuppressed, sub or super. Almost ready to run it thru a rifle course. Subsonic load is 225 gr bthp on 11.4 gr Lil' Gun. Working on a supersonic load using 125 gr nosler ballistic tips https://preview....
