    Final corrections as best I know...

    Stag barrels are parkerized under the FSB.
    While stag barrels use taper pins, they are installed backwards and tight as hell. (this is neither a + or a - in my book)



    There are limited runs of M4 feedramped Bushmaster uppers, particularly for the Texas DPS.
    The dealer that sold these made a bunch of extras and I see them through my shop occaisionally.

    I have NEVER seen a Rock River barrel that used taper pins.
    This does not mean that the particular model in the chart does not use them, I've just never seen one through my shop.
    It would be very odd indeed to use taper pins only on one particular model and then use straight pins on every other model.

    Man, I thought I had already corrected all three of those!

    Guess I'll have to fix 'em tomorrow.

    Didn't someone mention that a LMT could be had for around $1000 in a different thread? I could be mistaken though.

    If you buy the upper and lower separately, you can assemble an LMT rifle for less than $1000. When you buy a complete LMT rifle, you pay more mainly due to the 11% federal excise tax.

    However, I think this chart is comparing complete, factory built rifles only.

    I have a silly question...

    How do you HPT a bolt without also firing the black pill round in a barrel as well?
    It's not like you would keep running black pills through the same barrel to test different bolts.
    The barrel extension would get beat all to hell in a short time.
    You would fire one round through each barrel/bolt combination and then do the MP testing afterwards.

    Could we just call it "milspec barrel steel", or would that be too open to interpretation? Obviously the question that opens up is "how do you know what's milspec?"
    Your table cells are wide enough to just list the barrel steel for each one as there are basically three available options: CMV, 4150 or 4140
    Ignore the steel type in the count and just make it an informational table entry or just score a 1 for CMV and 4150, but not for 4140 if you are stuck on counting statistics...

    Rob, Out of curiousty are LMT's being shipped without H Buffers now??? both of mine have them.

    Also the castle nut is the nut holding on the stock right??? If so mine are staked also. I can/will provide pics if needed.

    I beilive this to be a mistake, i could be wrong tho.

    The box for "staked castle nut" is checked for LMT.

    According to Grant, the only person I know of that has seen a complete LMT rifle so far, the complete guns do not have an H.
