Welcome! Did you do the straight jacket idea to your barrel from the gas block forward?

[quote="oldmanjeffers"]Welcome! Did you do the straight jacket idea to your barrel from the gas block forward?

i just wanted a short, "snag free", semi auto setup for big boar hunting, at first... custom lathed the gas block to fit in the front hand guard, a barrel tube, and a thread protector out of 7075 aluminum...kept the tolerance very close and the three pieces actually weigh less than the original steel gas block that came standard...once mounted and locked down the rifle is changed...

all i can say is what a difference when shooting, the "kick" is just a "push" now.... im pretty sure now that a free float barrel in this caliber and a 16" barrel doesnt matter, very accurate... also the aluminum acts like a heat sink, shoot shoot shoot and the barrel just gets warm

thanks for the welcome, im looking forward to trading more ideas for the 450... miles of smiles

Very nice! Welcome to the community! What plans do you have for optics on the .450.

Heres mine probably gonna swap out the rail for the Spikes slim rail once it's availible to lighten it up some also i had the flash hider duracoated black since the pic was taken

[2zero6]

That's a nice rifle degoose! As far as lowers go the spikes and the POF tie for number one on my list. I especially like the FA symbols the use on the selector.

Thanks 2zero6... I'm a pertty big fan of Spikes havn't got my mitts on any POF stuff yet other than a couple flash hiders, but would like to add one of their .308's to my collection

Spikes fan pic...Midlength is missing from this one

My dream AR in .308 is the POF P-308 12" in NP3. Been wanting one of Spike's 9" side loading Havoc 37mm launchers.
