Well, I finally figured out why I was having so much trouble subscribing to the forum, the activation email was getting nabbed by my spam filter.
All is well that ends well, and here I am (but maybe a couple weeks later than I would have liked.)
Why am I here? I have a box (or two) of parts and plan to be building a 6.8 SPC upper starting, maybe ... tomorrow!
The heart of it is a 20 inch Cardinal Armory barrel. I bought it a few weeks ago, and shortly after receiving it learned about the chrome issues.
It remains to be seen if this particular barrel will have issues or no. You will be hearing from me more, no doubt.
Here is a question: I haven't sprung for a set of go/nogo guages. Some people say you must check headspace, others say that it is really unusual
to have a headspace issue on assembly of new parts, whatdyall say about this??
P.S. nothing meant by the Uncle Tom moniker. My name is Tom, and one good friend always refered to me as uncle Tom, so it seemed good to
me, but apparently it pushes some peoples button.
