Just FYI I was trying to buy some things on eBay using the live.com search cashback deal. It is no longer working as far as I can tell. I think it was also confirmed not to work by ar15.com. Too bad. I saved almost $200 on my optics using it.

The Tactical Crib Mattress...I like it. Needs to be black though.

Centerpole, putting in an LPK is no big deal. I'm sure you could do it without much trouble. If you are in the BCS area, I can give you a hand if need be.

It's not getting it in that worries me, it's doing it without scratching the sh*t out of it.

I'll ask this question here, it's AR related a little. I want to mount a Loupy MKIV on top of this... M1 or M3 knobs? I may also use the scope on my AR-10 at times so I don't want to get BDC option. thanks.

Sorry guys, that mattress is 26+ years old. My wife informed me that it was not bought new when her sister was born but rather that it is the same mattress she slept on when she was in the crib.


So yea, 26+ year old Tactical Crib Mattress. With grommet stealth holes.

Would you rather scratch it yourself and save some money or have your gunsmith scratch it and be out the cash? I've built 7, and they all ended up with a scratch or two. It's going to get scratched either way. And the first time you take it out, it's going to gain some more.

Centerpole, the only part that could result in a scratch is the pin for the bolt catch. Put a double layer of duct tape anywhere you think you may hit the receiver, it will keep you from making any "premature" scratches.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

M1 vs. M3...how much are you going to be "In" the knobs?

Do you shoot out past 500 yards a lot? Do you make zero adjustments for each shot?

Unless you shoot matches I wouldnt worry about the knobs. Now for me...M1.

But, as soon as I get a new MkIV with the Horus reticle, twisting knobs will be a thing of the past.

Is it a smart idea to try and remove the castle nut without a spanner wrench? If so, what tool would you use?

TIA

San Antonio.

I don't know if it's staked or not. It's one of the CMMG Bargain Bin rifles.

shouldn't be staked... you can use channel locks and a towel or piece of leather(BE CAREFUL!!) or a strap wrench.

Or you could wait on a wrench.....

Yeah, the RRA wrench (later style castle nut) is only about $4.

I may give it a go Saturday when I have time to mess with it without a sleeping 1 year old in the house. I'm just putting a rear sling mount plate on it, so no big deal.

Is there anywhere in town where I could pick one up? Sportsman's Warehouse or BPS?

$6. I have a couple I can send you one if you need it.

You can also get a castle nut off with two of the old style wrenches sandwitched around the nut with each of the single pins in a notch.

Anvil Arms http://www.anvilarms.com/pc-36-19-stripped-lower-receiver.aspx

They do free laser engraving if you wish. They had a couple other Gonzalas Flag designs but I didnt like them. So we created our own. If you want to use it (or any other designs), just reference the number from this thread:
http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=2&f=244&t=155811&page=6

for instance, the design on mine is AA Picture #234

i need to get photos of our new design, the Goliad Flag, up.

from their website:

quote:
Our lower receivers are 100% “Mil-Spec” EXCEPT that the actual “Mil-Spec” includes the ability to fire fully automatically. Our upper and lower receivers meet every other dimension and tolerance in the specification except for that one area, where by federal law, they are not allowed to. However, our lower receivers are fully compatible and completely ready for a registered drop in auto sear!

Curious what scope this is....

Put 120 rounds through the Stag today. Still not grouping real well but it's been about 4 months since I shot it last. Shot from 15-100 yards and was able to keep a group no bigger than my head with the exception of the 100 yard target. That's good enough for me in a SHTF scenario. Practice will make me better.

If Wolf weren't so cheap I'd forget the crap. It's dirty as all get out. Don't like cleaning after wolf. Used up all my cleaning pads and emptied a few oz of CLP.

ETA: Has anyone shot Remington UMC? I swear it smells like anhydrous ammonia.
