    The JB Weld would probably be stronger than the rest of the gun.

    I don't think it counts as gunsmithing if you replace a junk part with what should have been used in the first place.

    On a side note. That rifle looks really clean, doesn't look like it had been run much. And here I keep hearing that the plastic lowers are milspec or stronger than milspec

    Awesome. What brand poly lower is that? Also hilarious to me that they sprung for the most expensive Eotech model, but wouldn't pay for a decent lower.

    most of the polymer lowers I see break are those that look like mil spec

    the one I have ( not used ) has extra thickness around the important areas so they look beefier


    of course I have an old bushmaster carbon 15 for like 10 years now it has no problems upper and lower is some sort of polymer and looks like a mil spec lower

    I have never seen these pictures before. Man, I feel a lot better about the mistakes I have over the years. Cause they were nothing like this stuff. Holy crap!

    I've worked on an Omni before. Went to drive the FSP pins out to put a low pro gas block on and the pins came out...in four pieces. Both pins were broken in half.
