Vader, thanks for the leads, I had not seen those 80% before. I think I can also buy the Tactical Machining jig for about that price and it should have the pin dimensions. I'm trying to figure out where to start in changing the blueprints I have for the Armalight AR-10 to match the DPMS upper and magazine. I wanted to start from scratch and kind of make it my own design is the reason I don't just go on with a forging mostly.
I have a DPMS .308 SASS that I simply adore shooting but it just such a heavy bugger to carry around when I go hunting that I want to build out two different versions also in .308. A long barrel but non-railed free-float longer distance target shooter and a 17" standard handguard rifle for hunting with. The bad news is that if I build them then I'm going to want optics on them and then I need to sell a kidney or tell my daughter to hit the pole for her college savings or something because since two years ago, holy @#$#@ has the money flowed out of my bank on this stuff! Maybe if I get a southern drawl and say "game changer" more often Discovery channel will fund some better toys for me?!
I just really want to be able to say "Yeah, I made that. No, I mean I MADE that"
CNC: Making incorrect parts and breaking stuff, faster and with greater precision.
I built a DPMS style in a .260 Remington and I love that thing but as you say carrying it while hunting is another matter.
To that end my last build was a .25 WSSM on an AR-15 platform, with an Olympic Arms game stalker upper. The ballistics are nearly identical to the .260 but it weighs four pounds less. Both are great long distance rifles.
For a little more close range knock down (for bears and such) I built a .308 with a light weight 18” Kaiser barrel and a carbon fiber hand guard.
Beautiful
Updated! finished the side and added an engraving.

Sweet!
What did you do for the surface finish, sandblast?
yep just quickly blasted over it to see how it would effect the tool marks
Nice!!
Man I gotta say that looks very cool. Nice 3d toolpaths... Can't wait to see the thing finished. Can you tig weld those holes shut carefully maybe and then carefully sand over them followed by a bead blast so you can use that thing when it is finished. Peace

I just start using gun at a gun fair and I willing to know more about it, from where they get manufactured and what material is used in making different types of gun. I was just wondering which gun you guys like. Is there any such thing ar 15 bullets and if yes , where.
