Foro 308ar

Think I need a bullet trap for my backyard to shoot suppressed!

This is a really good vid, and this guy always publishes great information. Well worth the time. It's the difference between military grade weapons and commercial grade weapons.

Hello everyone, I am finishing a Aero m5 build and just wanted to see if there would be any issues with the parts combination I chose. I would rather buy the correct parts now than have issues and rebuy new parts later on… I have read that the Armalite buffer setup is the best for this kind of platform but unfortunately could only find the buffer spring so I tried to recreate the rest of it with other parts. The rifle is a 6.5 Creedmoor build that will be reloaded for with H4350 and srp brass; Aero M5 upper and lower CMMG 308 LPK UTG pro 308 carbine buffer tube, internal length measure at 7-11/16 deep EA1095 buffer spring H3 buffer (was actually listed at 5.6oz but do not have on hand to measure) BA premium heavy barrel 20” length with rifle gas system Aero low pro gas block Aimsports 15” DPMS high handguard mlok I have not chosen a bcg yet, I would like others opinions before doing so. My only question is whether a 6.5 bolt is need and if the dual ejector setup will ruin brass. Thanks in advance for everyone’s advice.

Check it. See if you might have anything to do with it (affected by it)...

Hi everyone, new to the 308ar world. A bit of backstory on myself is that I bought a m5 lower right before covid and then life happened, years later going through the safe I found it in the original box and figured it was time to finish it. I start researching for parts and come to find out that Aero no longer makes parts or the company is shut down, so here I am thinking I have nothing more than a paperweight now. Luckily a friend turned me onto a local shop I never heard of but I give it a shot, low and behold he actually has a m5 upper hiding away somewhere in the shop and even though it's a different color than the lower, I am still ecstatic to at least have a matching receiver set. After getting that sorted, I set out to actually finish this build but had many questions as their is no milspec/standardization compared to the ar15. I happened across this site while researching and realized and their is a TON of knowledge here, with very helpful members so I joined. Hopefully after a few years of sticking around and learning I can start helping other members as well.

Over 50 year playing that Texas boogie take a bow Frank thank you for all that great music .

Kinda like us only more regular.....

It's cascading... It's working. It's happening. I wish all the "NEVER ONE INCH!" boys were still here, demanding everything happen right away. It's death by a thousand cuts that got us here. It can only be death by a thousand cuts that we get out of this... And it's going on right now...

Check this out, everyone - I'm busy for a few weekends coming up, but if someone ( @shepp ) gets to this first - please inform us all.
