Thanks Sinister. Those look similar to the ones I bought. man, all i did was google LR-308 upper receiver vise block and they were about the first or second link. They had some really solid reviews, so I just went with it. Wasn't sure if using an Aero M5 upper was going to be a problem or not, but the owner apparently is a big Aero fan, and they should work.
These work with the receiver laying over sideways. The Armalites look like the receiver is upright. I don' think that makes any different though, do you?
Here's a pic of the ones on the way.
With an upper... Those two thick plexiglass pieces are what Jason called "anti-torque" plates. I guess it keeps the pieces on the rail and on the takedown/pivot pin side from twisting when you're torquing down the barrel. Although I think mostly used to remove a barrel that doesn't want to come off. I don't see needing that must torque for the barrel nut.
I'm in Temple. You close by? DUH.. i just saw your profile info over to the right. College Station is a hop skip & jump.
