Quoted: All you people hung up on gas block alignment are forgetting that nutnfancy used compressed air on the gas block installs. http://www.themarysue.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/bread-toast.jpeg#geekosystem View Quote The gas port will be aligned enough to allow some air through, thats why it is under gassed and not totally single shot. |

Quoted: i got 1:22 in, the gun is short cycling on PMC. that guy is a fuck tard. way back when I was running ARs I had this really reliable SP1 upper. it ran damn near anything including wolf....but not pmc. short cycled like a mofo. i ran it over the chrono. 2750 fps from a 20 inch barrel and 55 grn bullet. WAY THE FUCK UNDER LOADED. I don't need to watch anymore. fuckwit boy needs to buy atleast semi decent ammo and PMC isn't it. View Quote Disagree completely on PMC. PMC is decent ammo. It's not top grade by any means, but it's definitely better than Wolf...Not even close. |

Is it wrong that I really want video of this guy ordering in a restaurant? Probably sears his steaks in a microwave and then takes them back to the grocery store too.

I watched the entire video
and nutn said he had sent it back like 2 times, last time was the complete rifle too and something about having changed the gas block a few times so what you saw in the video was probably a new block didnt he say this was a 8 year repair so probably wont see video of how it was originally as that was too long ago even if whatever he did was wrong, why wasnt that figured out when it was sent in to me seems like all they did was look at it, shoot a few rounds and mail back if it was ammo related well who knows im sure nutn has shot enough over time to figure out what works with what I didnt see the video as that big of a deal I doubt it will ruin any sales |

I've never done anything with any gas block.
Can someone explain to me why this is so complicated? Two holes need to be in alignment. One is on the barrel. One is inside the gas block. The gas block has an easy to use alignment mark on the bottom. Can you not just measure shit? Why is there any need for compressed gas? What am I missing from this equation? Thanks in advance |

If you are gonna tote your platform as Numero Uno, feed shitty ammo through it and then claim you have a Numero Uno rifle. High grade ammo will not have a place in my stockpile unless I really want to nail something at long distances. I find myself stocking up on Steel case and I'm gonna go get some Privi too.
