I'm helping Hondo build a 204 Ruger in the AR platform. I am interested to see how it runs. I would really like to get out and hunt some varmit with it.

Is this talking about the dimple, or is further gunsmithing required...
I have been looking at getting a semi auto clone (about the same cost as an AR). You can pick HK 94's for 4000-5000. I have been looking at the Coharie for clones but have heard mixed reviews. Of course these are all semi auto but will take a registered drop in sear.
It's my understanding that the one opposite the gas hole on the barrel should match up. All Gas blocks are universal in that sense, the second one is dependant on the manufacturer and all will be different.
I would check the disconnector spring. I bet dollars to doughnuts you installed the small end of the spring facing down and not the large end. This is allowing the trigger to come back forward with the BCG. Be carefuly as this sometimes can cause a double fire.
The biggest question I always ask when people bring up the DI vs Piston debate is, "can you afford to shoot enough ammo to see the bennefits of a piston system"? Most of us don't shoot near enough to see a direct bennefit of shooting a piston gun.
There are always exceptions to the rules...
I work in insurance as a district manager and this was discussed a few weeks ago at a staff meeting. A bit crazy but who knows.
I just really hope they don't pass any legislation that says your house has to be "green" in order to sell it. Won't probably effect me but it's going to be pain is...
Komifornia isn't AS restrictive as you might think. IIRC they have a list of features that they can choose from. IE you go with a pistol grip but the mag must be "perm" attached or you could choose to have a removable mag but you have to have one of those funky Cali stocks on there. I believe...
I'm sure it's been said already but your going to be hard pressed to beat a Springfield Armory 1911. Get the GI spec one and you will be good to go:yesway:
I saw a thread over on ARFCOM where this topic was brought up. Long story short a soldier posted in the thread saying not only does it work they teach the soldiers how to build snow baracades if you are part of the mountain program (don't know the specfic name). Not only will snow apparently...
Poking around the interent and found this little gem.
Man I wish I had about 16,000 dollars to blow on a FA lower....:rockwoot::ar15:

ETA: Their comps seem to work pretty well too ;)
Back to the OP's question.
I don't think there is one suppressor company that makes the best can for all calibers...I think each company fills a nitch better than others.
Example: AAC hands down has a pretty good lock down on centerfire cans. The M4-2000 and SPR/m4 are tough to beat in...
Though I agree for centerfire cans I think .22lr cans need to be cleaned. They will lead up gain, wieght, and will eventually start to lose some suppression capability. Some industry types have gone so far to say that if you shoot .22lr through a 5.56 can it's "ok" as long as you shoot 5.56...
Is that deal still going on with Larue? Is the switch the real deal on these? Those alone are 100 bones new IIRC.
ETA: Anyone done business with this company? My security did not like their websight. These aren't knock offs are they?
I have no problem running the primary arms on my Spikes 22 upper but will put the real deal on my 5.56 ARs. I know the primarys arms will handle the abuse just piece of mind I guess.
