I got lucky in my negotiations with this new company and got three weeks vacation right off the bat. Between vacation, sick time and paid holidays, I get 38 paid days off this year.

Gas tube doesn't index the block -- you need to square the block to the upper receiver. You technically need to index it to the gas port (obviously), but without getting stupid complicated, you're trusting that the upper is machined properly and that the index pin is pinned in line with the gas port
Otherwise, yes. If you have any intentions of SBRing this thing and using it for anything serious, I'd pin the gas block, too. |
