    I dont like to store my ARs upright. All the lube tends to end up in my buffer tube.

    Ah ha, good thinking.

    I usually tip'em over when I'm reaching around. I'll have to give this a try

    Just a thought, I have found that SLP2000 does a pretty good job staying where its supposed to.

    Only problem with that would be the gun I would want that day would guaranteed to be on the bottom of the pile!

I began by inserting a 3/16" dowel down the bore. and leaving enough length to catch the rack. This worked ok for the 16" gun and allowed me to leave my stock where I like to shoot it, but with the length of span on the 10.3" gun, there was a lot of flex in the dowel to the point that I was afraid it might break while the gun was in storage...
    Thanks for that!
