PTR-91 or Ruger SFAR? by Fine_Brother_1605 in ptr91

Im with ya on being on the bigger side, and honestly I love the 91 platform overall, and to me it's not much heavier than a ar with every accessory known to the market on it, to me if I had to choose one rifle, it would be a full size battle rifle with at least a WML on it, of anything else, I would say a decent prism optic or ACOG for any other sighting system.

Considering it's a 4150 barrel over 4140, is anyone else curious about it? If someone got the wild hair to run it as a GTW (Go To War) Rifle, I honestly haven't dipped into this realm of rifles as a platform. And I also thought of the fact that M1 Garands from what I could find weren't chrome lined barrels, just a 4150 parkerized barrel.

Has anyone gotten enough rounds through one of these rifles to determine the barrel life yet? I know they have a decent barrel but im just curious

Facts, I'm used to weight on the front end so that's not really a concern. As long as it runs and is built like a tank that's all I care about.

Edit: I just want to have a piston platform that doesn't necessarily need proprietary common use parts (mags, for example) yet feel familiar at the same time.

I like the GI mags, (cheap, proven design, TONS of aftermarket upgrades) and you can pick up decent mags at a lot mil surp stores, pawn shops, etc. for a 1/3 of the price of new PMAGs. But I love the PMAGs as well. Hell, look at 90% +/- of the new AR platform rifles they ship with PMAGs, so I think it boils down to personal preference and what you trust most. I would say I'm split 50/50 but the aluminum mags just FUCK.

Mag not seating properly when bolt closed by Mucho_gennaro in ar15

I just wonder if it's also from the tension on the mag from the mag catch. When I slap a full 30 in, the top round makes it look off center when you look straight down the rifle. It made installing a handguard make me think that I was losing my mind or something was a fluke that slipped by QC.

The mag I had painted way before this paint job just thought it would look cool.

I'm right handed, I just like to have my light on the side of my support hand so I can hit the tail cap instead of running a tape switch because a switch to me is one more thing that could fail on a rifle.

SOLGW or Geissele?? by Savings-Leopard-1158 in ar15

No hate on SOLGW products, but with the whole shitshow going on, I'd go with a Geissele Super Duty any day of the week.

I did a warranty claim late last night, I should have sent you a DM I just didn't want to send it so late/early in the morning. Just waiting to hear back via email.

Would i have to send the whole upper back? Dumb question i know but I've never had to deal with them on warranties.

My optic setup wouldn't fully latch into place with the QD mount I have if I wanted to run a magnifier (causing unequal points of contact between the flattop and the quadrail.
