Peeled out of the office for a bit yesterday afternoon to put the first rounds through the H and get the scope sighted in.
Results were very promising with 69 SMK's and a standard load of 8208 XBR. Can't wait to fine tune it and run the MOA All Day with it.

Was told to cross-post this e-mail from Tim @ DoubleStar, here:
Sorry to take so long getting back with you. I had to do a little checking and confirming to make sure everything is correct. what the attached photo showed is: Gen 3 Gen 1 (long) Gen 4 Gen 1 Socom stocks will have a round “nut” (the part the adjustment button screws into) it will also have a gusset with a machined sling loop (this is designed to be ambi, as the gusset can be removed from the stock and installed with the sling loop on the other side). The Gen 1 will have 2 alignment slots on the top of the buffer tube that use 2 small flat head screws to keep the tube from rotating Gen 2 Socom stocks will have a square “nut”(the part that the adjustment button screws into) it will also have a gusset with a machined sling loop (this is designed to be ambi, as the gusset can be removed from the stock and installed with the sling loop on the other side). The Gen 2 will have 1 alignment slot on the top of the buffer tube that uses a set screw to hold in an alignment “nipple” to keep the tube from rotating. Gen 3 Socom Stocks will have a square “nut”(the part the adjustment button screws into) It will have a gusset with a tapped hole on both the left and right side of the gusset that will allow you to mount the upgraded Ace sling swivels, this gusset is not reversible. The Gen 3 will have 1 alignment slot on the top of the buffer tube that uses a set screw to hold in an alignment “nipple” to keep the tube from rotating. Gen 4 Socom stocks will have a “pill” shaped “nut”(the part the adjustment button screws into) It uses an ambi receiver end plate and extended and oversized castle nut.(the over sizing and extending help to strengthen the connection between the stock and the lower receiver) The Gen 4 will have 1 alignment slot on the top of the buffer tube that uses a set screw to hold in an alignment “nipple” to keep the tube from rotating. If I have missed anything or you have a question about anything above please let me know. If you don’t care to send me a link to the forums/threads you post this information in so I can watch them for questions or to clarify anything I would appreciate it. Thanks Tim

so hes saying what we know as a gen 1 is actually a gen 2.
why would they go from the circle to the square? thats a worse design. i dont buy it, but he "knows". all we know is u need a square latch unless ur cloning that one in front of the lathe. |

The circle is a stronger design, but in a few other ways the square latch model (and later) has improvements (single channel w/ set-screw retention rather than two screws, etc.).
He is also saying the Gen 2 and Gen 3 both had a square latch, which matches up with the fact that I just bought a Gen 2/3 replacement buffer tube (A613 part no.) and it was the square latch model. |

I know many of you guys cross post between here and the other thread but just so it's here too. I had black bore guides,Ballistic cards and round count logs made to go in the surplus cases. There are a few, very few still available as of today. I had about 20 extra and in one day that went to about 8. Below is a pic. Contact me with any questions. They are $60.00 shipped for the package deal. 1-bore guide,1-Ballistic card and 1-round count log. Shipped priority. I'll be laying my own mod H case on you fellow cloners soon. It's not a surplus case but I've been working on it. Basically cloning the surplus case but for the H.

But when you claim something that goes against a mountain of evidence with no evidence people are going to want convincing evidence. Cloning is all about being dead nuts on. I personally trust the spare parts system that DoubleStar has - I ordered a Gen 2/3 tube and I got the one with the square latch. The Gen 1 tube w/ round notches is too old and no longer available as a spare part, FWIW. That being said, the photo of the Mod H in front of a lathe shows that anything but the Gen 4 would suffice... it's just semantics, at this point. The only reason that clarification is important on the Gen 1-3 stocks is for ordering spare or replacement parts... hence, why I stumbled across this correction. |

it is kinda sad. I was talking to my son this morning and he has been wanting an 18" gun. well you know my vote. but there are just no parts. a 2-3 sleeve is just a myth now. hell you cant even get FF RAS right now for a reasonable cost. even with the H your looking for a GEN 1 ace stock. 800.00 on gunbroker. I realize how luck I was to get in when I did and little did I know the decision to do all 4 at once would be the right one. ARMS needs to start making those sleeves again. they would sell the shit out of them. I don't see how that doesn't make sense to them.
