Nice pistol! How many more of the barrels do you have?

shooterrex · February 3, 2020, 3:07am

That was the last 1. Just built 2.

Looks good. Can we get a closer look at the blast shield?

This is a different one but almost identical.

I see the brake has a thread, do they come together and does it really keep the blast from your face.

Chuparosa · February 3, 2020, 3:56am

Looks great. I approve.

shooterrex · February 3, 2020, 4:23am

Yes it keeps the blast out of your face.threads are 13/16. Solvent trap style. Yes came as a set.

Nice!!! At this point I wish I had bought more of those barrels.

They do make sweet shooting pistols, much better in DI than the the original piston P716 for sure. Glad I stacked’em deep Wish I would have bought more of the 716 bolts they had though.

What did you drill the gas port out to? Gas block?
The 12.5 is a great length for a 308 pistol, still have one barrel left.

shooterrex · February 5, 2020, 3:13am

That was the one I broke the bit on last fall. Think it was 5/64 maybe 3/32. Used JoBobs adjustable gas block.

Hey @Robert, @albroswift needs one of those double barrel symbols, he’s an active member over on 308AR👍

Make sure he sends in his 2,500 monthly dues now

I remember that. See the gearhead tailhook is on sale at jbo, may have to put that last barrel to use.

shooterrex · February 5, 2020, 11:34pm

Tailhook is cool. Saw that it was on sale. Just ordered a micro Roni for my Glock. Enough funds on guns for the week.

Jeff300 · February 8, 2020, 4:33am

Let us know how you like that Roni, I have almost bought one but have never had my hands on one or know anybody who owns one.

Tracking says it will be here Monday. Probably next weekend before I get to shoot some.
