>>62431243Not strictly on topic, but I think I remember originally talking about it with anons here not prg and after 7 long months after 5 long years I might finally have the barrel this week. If so and no further issues will post here as well. Almost feels unreal.
>>62431266Which barrel did you decide on?
>>62431259cool on you for actually stepping up to take some updates anon
>>62431294I mean I've only put it off for 2 years now
>>62431243literally me
>>62431277Probably sounds retarded but don't want to jinx it until arrival, paranoid at this point. But nothing special honestly, just a quality steel 300wm with a few customizations like letting me direct thread my suppressor. After a fair amount of research I decided I didn't want to go carbon this time around, nor any more exotic caliber. Also didn't go for that new 400modbb steel despite it looking interesting, though some of that is just because they seem to never have supplies. I already had a bunch of 300wm. In another year or two I'll reevaluate, but at least I'll have the gun and kit. Swapping a barrel and maybe bolt/mags isn't a huge deal.

>>62431243The unobtatium gear reddit robber rig is...
anyone else strongly considering 6.5cm brs now? ammo prices have plummeted to a surprising degree, not quite as cheap as 308 in the truly low end but almost identical for decent grade stuff let alone better and still more accuracy all around. 308 still has some cool short range fun niche loads like frangible but otherwise while 6.5 started more as an accuracy cartridge if its the same price its interesting.
>>62436014Largely wasted under 700y and a 2500rd barrel life isnt great but I got a PRS anyway
>>62436049>and a 2500rd barrel life isnt greatReally? I've never heard of a barrel life that short for 6.5, 3500-4000 is more the mark. 2500 sounds like one of the newer more aggressive cartridges, the PRCs or the like. And even then barrel life discussions always need an asterisk, because they're typically made by the standards of PRS shooter where when a barrel goes from 0.3moa to 0.6moa it's eol. In a hunting or general BR context though 2-3moa is often just fine, I've seen plenty of dudes talking about retiring a fancy 6.5 barrel to a hunting/practice/fun gun and pushing through 7000 rounds.It's definitely less life then 308 but I don't think it's radically less. But yeah barrel cost would be a consideration.>Largely wasted under 700yDepends on the gun, some do better with it. And you get somewhat lower recoil regardless I suppose.
>>62436159Itll still shoot but competition shooters are replacing barrels at 2-2500. 4k for battle rifle accuracy is probably.. accurate.
Is it just me or does the PTR get filthy as fuck. I only put like 30 rounds through mine the other day and the amount of carbon and stuff in it was crazy. Maybe its the ammo..
>>62436477That's why they have relief cuts in the chamber
>>62436477Its a (delayed) blowback firearm. They are the real kings of shitting where they eat. If I ever get another PTR or the CA-3 I am just gonna buy a shit ton of brake clean and hose the rifle out outside when I get home from range trips, the proceed with normal cleaning.

Scored an M1A barreled action compete with sadlak mount for $500 due to some rust damage. Ugly, but nothing that impedes function. Ordered a $50 GI stock and threw on an aimpoint I had lying around. Feeling good bros
>>62440436A beater, AKA "sleeper"!
>>62440436Is the barrel fine though? I'm sure you can get parts to replace what's rusted long as the barrel is in good condition.
/hg/ has been overrun by gay niggers and third worldersShame
>>62441290Always has been
>>62441089The receiver heel and underside of the barrel where it meets the receiver were the worst spots and I think the pitting there is pretty permanent. The upside is the barrel ended up being a 61 dated Winchester and the bore is clean so even with the grungy exterior I’d still rather have this than a commercial non chrome lined Springfield barrel
>>62441290how do you like the mlock extension?
>>62441506It's quite nice. I wanted something to extend the surface area of the SCAR without going too heavy and the Lancer carbon fiber rail has been great. Also it takes about 4 mags before the handguard starts to get warm to the touch, which is really good considering how close to the gas block it is.Prevents my hand from getting the ol spicy barrel, which used to be my biggest issue with the SCAR

Is it possible to build a Scar like you can build an AR15? I have some money and I remember an anon saying he was going to build his Scar. I'll go look online while I wait for a fast and prompt reply.
>>62448395I've been wishing the Scar would become an open platform for years now. Just not going happen. Right now the short stroke piston with big block bcg haven't really taken off much outside the og SOFCAR trial rifles. Everything seems to be moving towards pic related style systems instead.

>>62463126I'm waiting for them to realize it's not what they wanted, then turn around and buy into 6MM arc. We'll see what happens. These things take years. The Scar went into service in 2008 and it wasn't until 2011 they decided it wasn't what they wanted. Keep in mind these things are never said out loud. The Gov'mint just stops ordering and changes logistics. FN never said, "whoops we failed with the Scar 17, oh well."

>>62476980I took it apart to see what he did, but I didn't take pictures (unfortunately). However, from old KTOG posts about adjustable triggers, I found that he did perform the same trim on the sear that they did. I circled around the trim, and the thin line is pretty much where the sear is now.The pull isn't much lighter, but it definitely breaks a lot earlier than before. It's pretty much a heavy one stage trigger now, which isn't too bad for about $90 and a week turnaround.
>>62482133I would pay $90. But man, look at all those reinforceing plastic bosses molded into the web of the grip. Serious strength indicated here! I feel like dancing!

>>62446041For those wondering, you can buy a Tortort receiver plus (nitrided) barrel and rail from Riley for $694 including shipping. Pretty cool that they're not sticking it to us on price. A receiver direct from tortort is usually in the $600 range. I'll be about $1055 for my build including shipping and rivets. Not too shabby for milled build. Now I need to decide how to finish it. I'm leaning towards rust bluing but I've always wanted to have an entire rifle nitrided, I might try contacting my local nitride shop and seeing how expensive that would be.
>>62484089Rust bluing is diy at least. Get this book. First editions are expensive but not needed unless you're a bookfag too. Has everything you need on yhe chemistry side. C&Arsenal has diy videos for equipment side.

It's an inch and a half off center at 25y even after bottoming out the rear sight. Confirms the bench vise snapped before I fully torqued it down. Bolt hold open also isn't always working, but I think it's from the top being too shallow to capture to bolt well. Other than that, it ran flawlessly after dialing gas. No malfunction firing.

whats the best br to get if you dont have any other 308 guns? besides ar10
>>62493404Nice, congrats, I remember the excitement of building my first ak and the drive to the range to shoot it for the first time. I haven't tried building a big boolit rifle yet but it will happen
>>62496103scar, xcr, bren 2/3.
>>62496103what do you mean by "best"?The PTR is probably the most accessible if you don't want an AR-10. The FAL has the best aesthetics, but it's a heavily flawed gun and I wouldn't recommend it unless you specifically want a FAL
>>62496103Maybe consider a used/on sale MDRX, since you don't have other 308 guns you may have a use for the caliber conversion capability of it.
>>62497077ive heard the ergos are shit on the ptr and would need some big aftermarket parts to compensate... what makes the fal flawed? it looks cool
>>62497403If you do get an MDRX as this anon suggested, order vibratite vc3 and retorque the barrel screws and the screws on the ass end. Also change the stock muzzle device to something else - it'll improve accuracy as the stock muzzle device somehow has a weird harmonic effect with the barrel and makes it open up drastically a few shots in (like 8 MOA spread from bench rest)
>>62497423>ive heard the ergos are shit on the ptr and would need some big aftermarket parts to compensate... >what makes the fal flawed>I've heardAny answer is in the same catagory that you dismiss the PTR for, so what difference why the FAL is flawed, you've already heard it is.
>>62497423The ergos are fine on the PTR, it's just kind of clunky and slow with the ergonomics. Biggest issue with its ergonomics is the length of pull, but every time I've taken friends out shooting, they love the PTR more than anything else. The FAL has a lot of problems on a couple different levels. For a casual shooter, the biggest issue is probably the finnicky mags - FAL mags are expensive and tend to not be perfectly interchangeable like you'd see with ARs or the PTR. Sometimes you'll luck out with a gun that works with every mag, other times you'll have a handful of surplus mags that are tough to fit into the magwell right. At least in my experience, the problem mags aren't useless, they're just annoyingly hard to lock in.As far as the design goes, the tilting bolt design isn't great for accuracy (though it's not really a problem for the average shooter), and the dust cover design means your options for optics aren't great. The gas system is adjustable, which means you usually have to spend your first range trip dialing it in, and the system may require you to change the setting depending on the ammo you're shooting.Aftermarket parts are also harder to come by with the FAL compared to the PTR, and they're almost always more expensive. Adding to that issue is that there's two different standards for FALs, and there's a lot of dubious-quality FAL builds on the market.Assuming you've got a good build (DSA is fine), the FAL is a lot of fun and a little easier to shoot than the PTR. But I wouldn't consider it to be good enough to be worth the effort unless you specifically want a FAL.tl;drif you just want a .308 rifle that's not an AR-10, the PTR is better. If you specifically want a FAL, get a FAL.
>>62497403>Maybe consider a used/on sale MDRX, since you don't have other 308 guns you may have a use for the caliber conversion capability of it.I have an MDRX and I like it a lot, but the WLVRN is overall a significant improvement/refinement, so definitely be looking for a serious discount. 10% off or whatever doesn't cut it, if I sell my MDRX it'll probably be for at least 35% off, even to cover whoever buys it getting that DT upgrade package with some to spare.The caliber conversion is also somewhat less cool than it was before the wlvrn, because DT mishandled the whole thing and irritated aftermarket folks (who were tiny in number). That used to let you get every single caliber under the sun practically which was really neat, live in a straight wall state and want a 350legend or 450bush decent bullpup battlerifle? You could. It looks like that has shrived up though so while you might still find someone custom for extra money you're more limited to official kits.

>>62497512thank you for making this very helpful and awesome post and not being a faggot
Hello /brg/I’m getting a bipod shipped for my SG-542. I’ve got one of the (rare) 542 bayonets. Soon I’ll have a whole kit. Until then I’m enjoying long range shooting off a bench bag, even if it’s just got BR tier accuracy, it’s still fun ringing steel from a few hundred yards away
>>62499972Beautiful rifle
How's the CA3 compared to new PTR91s?
>>62500043don't buy a century anon.
>>62500001Thank you anon, sorry you were off by 1 :(
>speaking of FALsSo what's the best way to transport my FAL to the range using a 4.3L Rolls-Royce engine in green and black? Why right here, of course: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1960-daimler-ferret-2/
Greeting big boolit frens, it's been a while
>>62501142Now that is a sweet scope setup!
>>62493404while retiming barrel you should get a 21" for itsince you're gonna need a new locking shoulder anyways
>>62480044What's the practical effective range on one of these and what advantage does it offer over a mag fed leverboi
I love battle rifles, and I hate John Lennon.
>>62501472you have a good head on your shoulders
Quick, recommend a good bipod that I can use as a pry bar or bottle opener in a pinch1913 mount, quick detach preferable
>>62502233just have your local metal shop weld together a pry bar and bottle opener then weld them both onto a 1913 mount. put them at an angle and you've got a bipod, boom. you'll have the most unique one at the range.

>>62501196Why? I gave it set-back, it should only be a hair tighter in the chamber. I ain't buying a whole fucking new barrel either.>>62496662I think I need some rosin, powdered sugar and drywall tape aint cutting it and it keeps spinning. I found a heavy duty vise on craigslist and that's working.
>>62499972blessed
>>62431852You just gave me an amazing meme for friends
night
Surefire finally got off their ass and made my RC2, then the gayTF did their job and cleared it in 6 days. Went out with the boys and shot it today and I fell in love all over again. I wouldn't call it hearing safe, but certainly tolerable
>>62507992Did you put in the 36 degree locking piece?
>>62508012Yessir, and a fresh recoil spring assembly. Ordered oversized rollers but bolt gap came out at .015 so I didn't bother installing. It somehow shoots softer at the shoulder suppressed, but it's back to launching brass into the next county
>>62507992I'm waiting for the RC3
>>62505004Bought pitchers rosin for the clamp, took the barrel off, gave the barrel face 1 pass with a piece of 400 grit paper. Hand timed right at 11 oclock after and shes perfecto. Headspace is the same.

How much do you think ammo prices will go up because of the schizo boomer?

>>62508028I'm personally not wild on the g3 platform (it's fun for the price) but seeing the brass get fucking LAUNCHED always brings a smile to my face.
>>62474879Here it is with the suppressor, fits right at the end of the brass ramp on the handguard. Still a bit over gassed, going to get the suppressor piston and try that next time I go to the range.Also, any recommendations for lightweight 30mm scope mounts? I have a Vudu 1-8 I want to put on this, but it's already pretty heavy and I don't want to make it worse. Looking at Aero, if anyone has tried those.
>>62432120SEXOOOOOOOOOOO
>>62498689I went yesterday, nice comfy pic anon
>>62484014Meta last year was to build out a AR308 but it's always more difficult than AR15s cus there is no set TDP across manufacturers unless you buy all your parts from the same companies and get an undrilled gas port
>>62486050Is that what a 17" Barrel looks like?
>>62489401Supposedly the South Africans painted some nutria brown but I don't have any photos. Nice AF M16 clone
>>62497077Gib AR10I wish Brownells hadn't been lazy fags and quit making them after 2 years. I'll just have to cope with my ArmaLite
>>62517245Yeah, it's a 17.7" para barrel. The flash hider is concealing a couple inches underneath.
>>62500043I have one, out of 170 rounds I had 2 failure to feed, ammo to blame probably. It's a great buy for the price, looking to buy another. I bought a new PTR GI model with the plastic lower in 2014, biggest piece of shit ever.
Saltech seems to be back on the menu
>>62517626>I bought a new PTR GI model with the plastic lower in 2014That’s funny, I bought a PTR GI model in 2012 and it works great, light recoil, never had a stoppage in 1,400 rounds of various .308 and 7.62x51 loads and bullet types.
>>62518165I'm glad yours works well, mine did not. Apparently PTR had some guys in QC that were fired. Idk how many surplus parts they used but some of the mag catches were out of spec. The CA3 being mostly surplus parts is actually a positive thing in my opinion. If PTR was recreating these parts I can see how they fucked up and had issues with the rifles.
>>62496103NOT a Scar. Probably not a FAL unless you want a FAL.
I got asked by a coworker, "what is a good ar10 for hunting?">pic relatedI may have gone on a diatribe for the better part of an hour without actually telling him which company/brand to use, and subtly recommending a bolt action. The sig tread would be my recommendation for an ar10, but a 16" barrel is not ideal for hunting. The good news is that we were both on the clock so he at least was compensated for listening to me rambling on about state specific laws, pros and cons of bolt and semi, and cost vs performance.
>>62517262I would unironically cover my FAL in Nutella brown.
>>62518135In for a can.
>>62518135Lost my source, was it wildhorse?
Does anyone have recommendations for lightweight scope mounts? I recently got a Vudu 1-8 in a trade, but I don't want to get a really heavy mount and make my RFB feel top-heavy.
https://www.arizonaresponsesystems.com/product/fal-rhodesian-pattern-camo-paint-set/I tried painting my g3 with an equivalent to this kit. Except i used a toothbrush.Not sure how i feel about it. Might do another layer with less distressing.
Thinking about buying the parts necessary for a nice g3 build, I can find the parts online but how much is a good builder going to cost?
Finally got some coom and GG. Thanks for everything you do, Lube!

>>62525849damn thats a messed up break! A machine company bought 2gallon GG to covr their machines indoor, outdoor (inder shelf) and for open weather transportaion. Not what i made it for but its fine, another company just gave it a new product name so the customer thinks its just on of their products IMAO. I think its time to work on a version made from cheaper chems so its more for non-firearm work like cars and tools. Whole industry ia a scam, they sell products they dont produce or mix ahit they dont even tested
>>62525988Just the brake dust shield, rotors are new.The car rust protection market is a nebulous weave of lies and scams. There's a large market ready for you to forcefully enter her.
>>62526126forceful sounds good son. I wanna emigrate in 5years and get industrial lines out anyways, i mean all i need to do is aource ameerican chemicals here to pre develope all products. 5 years ia alot and i got time, alot of time. 3 weeks next rust thread and we got movment now
Just checked my CA3 bolt gap, .016 inches, feelsgoodman
>>62497512Very cool write up, I wanted a working AR-10 but it's been nothing but a pile of misfeeding shit. I was fairly sure a DSA was in my future but you're really making me rethink towards getting a PTR A3S instead. I am a casual 2-4 times a year target shooter, and you'd probably say the PTR every time over a say a DSA 21" $1800 pound hound? Appreciate it big hoss.

>>62529138That's why no mag. Ultralight configuration. I do the same myself.
>>62531199>A text by wrong number.Lmao
I got a PTR a while back, but I had all kinds of problems with it until I got an HK parts bolt to put in it. The thing is, the bolt that came from PTR is in spec, but doesn't work reliably at all, while this HK parts bolt is WAY out of spec, my bolt gap is like .007 or something, but it works like a charm. Also the extractor is WAY loose, but whereas I had problems with the PTR bolt extracting rounds, I have never had an issue with the HK parts bolt. ...Is this a problem?
>>62531621Extraction issues can be caused by out of spec bolt gap too. What did your PTR bolt gap look like?
also you can just buy new rollers for like $30 instead of a whole new BCG. That said, if warranty sends you a new bolt just take it
>>62532140I think the last time I measured it with the PTR bolt it was a healthy .016. The biggest issue though is soft primer strikes. Almost every other round. Given I was using some shit steel case styff, but the HK parts bolt went through it no problem.
>>62532153I don't know how much you've already spent but you have two options I think.>buy + sized rollers to get your HK bolt in spec (you're supposed to replace the roll pin too but I haven't done that)or >buy new firing pin and spring for your PTR bolt pick the option that's cheaper. Get the rollers from RTG because HK parts sells the same shit for 2x the price
Where is the ptr-91 serial number at?
>>62514289Aero Ultralight is the way to go if you want to minimize weight. Rfb looks good tho

stumbled across a guy on the shitter giving out good information on cheap papa johns pizzahttps://youtu.be/oobHScOFWWk?si=-fNGLVk4oII1mvxg
>>62476324I thought he didn't do SDI ads anymore but I haven't watched his shit since the lever gun video
>>62476324Because they pay him?>Promote us and we'll give you money/ammo/guns>lol kGuns are expensive, ammo is expensive. I don't even get why you fags hate Guntoobers so much, as if someone is forcing you to buy shit. Guntoobers provide the community a valuable service by promoting cool guns, optics, helmets, plate carrier and more, spreading general information on the hobby. Don't watch Garandthumb, go watch Paul Harre- oh....
Most people now know SDI is a scam, but what about AGI and MGS? Are they worth it? I know that can be subjective. Guns are fascinating, and I'd like to expand my hobby to include building.
>>62536433>simping for garandbum
>>62534376I've been looking at ADM Recon mounts, and I really like their return to zero capability from the reviews I've seen. Just need to decide how much weight I'm willing to deal with. Have you had any issues with the Aero ultralight?
>>62535850I literally thought this was a deas vatnik with a bloody face from the thumbnail. These last few years on /k/ have really done a number on me.
>>62538160Kek I see it
>>62531199>A text by wrong number. Lmao, the last text I got by wrong number was some retiree's birthday party photos. Hope it goes well for you.
>>62536613AGI is a scam, dunno the other one. Any "gun smithing school" is a scam. The most complex skillset for building the crazier kits or custom stuff is welding or lathe operation. Anything else is more or less like wrenching on a car. Internet has all you need to just go self-taught, just about all gunsmiths are anyway. Any with a degree have one in machining or engineering, some parallel field, not specific to it.
>>62507992that is a nice looking gun you got there. Does it shoot with the 36 degree locking piece even if it's unsupressed? I've read that it would tame the recoil even more. I would love to get my hands on one, but in germany they are unoptanium. But you can get the shitty 45 degrees all over the place. Also already got the recoilspringbuffer, the triggerpack and the extended safety from Bill Springfield and they are great. But the Lockingpiece and maybe a HK21 Chargringhandle are the missing parts here for my SAR
>>62533302On top of the charging handle guide tube>>62538511It cycles fine unsupressed, but having put thousands of rounds through it before the swap, I can definitely notice the change in cycling speed. It used to be a lot easier to source parts for these until every youtuber decided all at once they were going to do a series on them. I bought the 21e charge handle years ago, in fact I think it was one of the first upgrades I put on the rifle, but the locking pieces dried up and I had to get a RCM repro from HKparts
>>62508012you don't need one if you get a flow-through style suppressor
>>62535659If you sign up at Denny's dot com you get discount coupons, it's awesome!
>>62540473Something something cops at a Denny's and doing controlled substances in front of children while pretending to be a lawyer
>>62538511Looks really nice anon, how's the view with the front sight and the aim-pro?
>>62540927Clears the outer ring of the front sight just fine. Pretty perfect for me. And thanks>>62539853Yeah I would get one 36 degree of rtg parts. They also do have the charging handle in stock. But they won't send stuff to gernany.
>>62541194It's not legal to import that stuff to Germany? Or rtgparts just doesn't ship to Germany.If it's just rtg not shipping, somebody here would probably be an intermediate if you want those parts.
>>62517277I don't know what it says about me that with all the modern 308 BRs out there its the bog standard AR-10 that catches my eye
>>62538511>>62541194Nice rifle. >>62541650>I don't know what it says about me that with all the modern 308 BRs out there its the bog standard AR-10 that catches my eyeSays you have good taste.
>>62541856Does anyone even sell one like that anymore? Even ArmaLite doesn't seem to have em now
Post #308 bump.
>>62538492That's what I was leaning toward anyway, but a machining course won't teach you some tricks of the gunsmithing trade. The couple grand would be better put toward a welder and lather I'm thinking. The only tricky part is sifting through the garbage of stuff online to find the nuggets of wisdom. I need to clean my shop space so I can fit a lathe in there.
First time in 2 years of owning my FAL shooting anything other than M80. I didn’t even know it could do this at 100 yards. In a better shooters hands it could probably do better but that’s about 2”
>>6254165090% of modern AR-10 derivatives look like gay ass race guns with goofy cut receivers and cheese graters for handguards, so I'm with you on that.>>62542829I'd say sifting bullshit from wisdom is easier to do here in forums and videos versus those courses, with all the people around to second guess and question if it's crap. I know for a fact AGI has some pretty bad practices in their instructional vids (using the barrel in an AK as a bucking bar for rivets, for example). There's reputable gunsmiths active on youtube and boomer forums all mostly open to just talking about it and giving you that info, except gunplumber I wouldn't bother him (he does have a book on FAL building though). Technical manuals exist too.>>62542095I called them not long ago about a receiver, they don't even sell individual parts anymore.
>>62542762maybe we should start advertising /brg/
>>62542958>he does have a book on FAL building thoughWhich in bootleg copy in pdf format somewhere on thIne web, iirc.

>>62542958>easier on forums and videos than coursesNoted. I have a bunch of the old AGI videos which is a shame if they aren't great. Better than nothing I suppose, but I'll be wary of them.>>62543180pic related
