Longshot_34 Wrote:you must not be down with the chunky PB?Actually, Chunky is fine on bread.. or on a spoon with a Hersheys bar. But never a trigger group.
However, I have certainly shot plenty of weapons that might have been using chunky mixed with
pebbles.

Interesting side note, I used the Faux gas block on my 20" 450 Bushmaster for this build. It looks like one YHM made.
Waste not, want not.

Guess I was thinking about what's brewing out there in OCCUPY
Fantasy land.
The protector is $15.00+ $6.00 shipping

Tell them to double check the threads, they got some 28 TPIs
Mixed in with their 24TPIs. They sent me the wrong one but they immediately answered my email and are sending a replacement. Very good CS.
