    So basically you're upset that I said your recommendation(s) suck so now you're putting words in my mouth in an attempt to discredit me

    Where did I recommend not doing it with a vice?

    All in stock.

    Edit because of your edit: Locking your elbow out can lead to problems. Pivoting with your knees has nothing to do with your elbow.

    Where did I recommend not doing it with a vice? How does someone get that from "You essentially need a vice"
    "Almost" and "essentially" have two very different meanings. I took you at your word, guy, and that word was very wrong. I'm done feeding you now.

    I sold my Yankee Hill rifle and now have a DDM4V7 (mid-length gas lightweight barrel) because of what I read and researched on this site.

    The DD is over a pound lighter than the YHM garbage, more reliable, more accurate, and a hell of a lot nicer to hold out in front of you. I have a T1 on mine and can ring steel at 200 yards while standing. It's my 3 gun and HD rifle now.

    You would be wise to dump the YHM idea and get something like we are suggesting.

    It's nice that you focused on word choice of this rather than defending your shit recommendation of an A5 stock assembly on a budget build

    Zim & teutonicpolymer you two need to either hug it out or part ways from this thread. This will not turn into a pissing contest so shake em off and separate.
    Love you Pop. F*ck Cancer.

    I'll probably do that,
    I never meant to open worms in this post, just opinions. A shame some are arguing. I've taken plenty if criticism here. It doesn't kill me only makes me determined.

    What exactly does that mean? Were you injured? If so, then adapt and use what works. But when we see people locking their support elbow, it makes many of us think of former Coasties with faux operator beards. Your signature line and avatatar imply you are or were a Marine. US Marines are some of the greatest riflemen the planet has seen. But I don't believe they teach locking the elbow.

    That said, I have long arms and prefer 15" handguards. You have to find what works for you in terms of dimensions, but the advice you've been given is worth taking and comes from many people who have already learned the expensive lessons so new shooters don't need to.
    Before you suggest that licensing, background checks, or other restrictions for the 2nd Amendment are reasonable... Apply those same ideas to the 1st and 4th Amendments. Then tell me how reasonable they are.

    couple suggestions to support what has already been said.

    If you do a NiB trigger, the reason to choose ALG instead of spikes is that Geiselle tunes the ALG. They are great triggers. Not saying the Spikes won't work, but You will be happier with the ALG.

    Quality in, and you will not regret it. Even if it takes a little longer to save and build.
