this *is* something you can fuck up, horribly

Fuck it it’s just a gun

Do you have the barrel nut and handguard yet?

inb4 he pins the gb before putting the nut on

I wasn't going to torque the barrel nut, jesus.

ngl i've done that before 😔
but it was just set screwed

Damn I've done that before

And yes, I have it.

But it was the metal ring on t91 handguard

Have what

it only damaged my pride, nothing else

Pinned the flash hider with parts missing

The handguard. I have everything to make it functional aside from an optic.

And my gas block has set screws.

Do you have headspace gauges?

Nyet.

No AR15 Lego 'builder' has headspace gauges

Correct

i mean im a hobby gunsmith and i dont have headspace gauges

I have an AR15 and I'm a Lego builder and I have never headspaced a gun

if my shit blows up that will be my punishment

And yet they continue to have kabooms on ar15 snob free

Heres a mockup. Everything forward of the receiver is obviously not torqued.

Tight is more common than loose anyways

I headspace gauge everything I build

I have them for AKs, but I just buy barreled uppers normally

>i have the lower assembled
wheres your bolt catch bro

The trigger is a little mushy and fails to reset sometimes

But that’s because 80%

And I've never had factory parts gauge out too loose

Oh. Yeah. So the bolt catch is still a problem. It barely scrapes the 2 lower lugs so it doesn't really work right. I've got a new milspec catch on the way so I can see if that's the issue.

@glacial pace the spring flew across the room

Who said it

Who said that 80 looked clean

I took the catch off for now.

the fcg pocket looked clean 😔

Milling an 80 has fuck all to do with the catch.

I said it looked clean, but I’ve really only seen a few that weren’t fucking disasters

There's no way you fucked up the catch

the only things that you could have fucked up are the fire control group and selector hole

80 builders seem to trend low iq
