AR-BALLISTIC Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I just got an email from Joe. He says that he can match the barrel finish exactly. And he should have some ready around the week of the 28th.He also told me that if anyone is interested they should use the AR-15.com tread that Duggan provided. He will update the tread as new information becomes available. This sounds AWESOME!!! Duggan, you the MAN bro!!!! Great find!!!

tucker301 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Yes. Still banned. It just burns me that the yahoos who booted me didn't do their part. I e-mailed them back and thought that was the end of it. I didn't realize that I had to keep their contact info. and ask several times to be reinstated or whatever the heck they want. I see people posting stuff on there very day that's a LOT worse than my reference to illegal aliens having moist lumbars, but they don't get booted. I guess I should have checked to see if there were any mods named Castro before I posted Anyway, thanks for the effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Bore Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I'll let you all know when I get mine. I'm on the list for his second batch when he gets them done. Pistons also. He said around the end of august so I'm patiently waiting. I also ordered a EOTECH 512 and mount from LaRue Tactical. Thats a good deal for the best of the best together. $439.00 and includes a free hat. Best prices I saw were around 359.00 for the EOTECH and 119.00 for the mount. It will also mount right up on my flat top AR. The pimping has begun. I just hope its not followed by the divorce but some things are worth the price. I hope?

Duggan Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 Totally worth it. Take her shooting with your new stuff. She may understand. And you bought all that stuff for 439? Or just the eotech/mount? [ 08-25-2006, 02:27 PM: Message edited by: Duggan ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Bore Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 She understands. After 28yrs she ought to know me be now. But after just buying my M4,SBE2 and an AR15 along with the goodies it makes her a little nervous. I am sure she will have no problem finding something to even that out with. Yes just the eotech and Larue mount was 439. Buying it from Larue Tactical together saved me 40 to 50 to use for something else. The full length tubes are about 190 and he's not sure yet how much for the pistons and follower but I should know soon and I'll post that up then. Why buy the extention for 150 when a full tube is 190? Thanks again Duggan for this original post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duggan Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 Glad to help. With nodakspud making factory finish +2s and thus guy making factory finish full lengths, things are looking pretty good for the civilian m4 owners. You'll love the larue mount/eotech. It is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest t1h5t@3 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I have both the "factory" not proven (ie Numrich) mag tube and just received ar15's SOCOMguy's $190 tube. I must say that SOCOMguy makes a much better tube. In fact, if anyone from Benelli is reading this you should contact him to make them for you. Or maybe pay your people in Italy a little more to do a better job finishing your tubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catman67 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Can you give information on the SOCOMGuy tube? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1014 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 for $65,,those numrichs tubes where well worth it,,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEOZZ Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I just recieved ymy M4 tube from Socomguy also very nice product. Here's the link Socomguys Benelli M4 Tube link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Bore Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I also received my M4 tube from Socomguy today and I must say it is excellent. The machine work is top notch and the finish is very good. Much better than the numerich tube and you have to remember it's also made in the USA. I recommend him. I also got a numrich tube which is also worth it but it may eventually be for sale as I cannot prove it is a factory tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duggan Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 The pictures of the machinists tubes sure look good. They look just like the tubes we had made here a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingbone Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I have one of the tubes that was made a while back and the finish on those was perfect! did the socom guy stamp made in U.S. on his tubes like he said he was going to do?

Full Bore Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Yes. Mine is stamped US on the receiver base end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
