I put this one together a few years ago and just yesterday rediscovered it in a case under the bed.
PSA upper/lower, Faxon midlength gas pencil barrel, SLR adjustable gas (never needed adjusting), Larue MBT trigger. Unmarked bolt, (probably from PSA too, I felt like I was keeping them in...
16 inches is the magic number, permanent, and the definition of permanent is indeed pinned and welded.
It is very doable if you have some basic skills, the pin needs to go all the way thru the muzzle device and into the meat of the barrel enough to prevent it rotating off, then weld the pin on...
Well, much to my surprise, when I showed up Saturday AM ready to do battle, the outside bead was already loose. Admittedly, I had prayed a little, but didnt expect quite such a clear answer.
I used my tire spoons and had the bead up and over in a few minutes, and slid a bit of the tube out to...
Yeah, thats another option I will use if I have to, but I'd like to leave it attached to the tractor so I can better use leverage to roll the bead over after I break it loose.

When I was a boy, I couldn't wait for tent caterpillar season, as I would burn thru containers of BB's daily, blasting those things for hours and hours.
I know I could set up to cast my own, but don't want to step off into yet another hobby just yet. I have cast before, and when I get moved(inspired by the beekeeping hobby I picked up several years ago), will cast again to feed my 10MM collection.
Currently just looking to pay a fair price for...
Looking to put together a ball mill for making some black powder for my flintlock, as well as some other pyrotechnic stuff, rocket engines etc... Nothing illegal of course, that you know of.
Where might I be able to buy (Pensacola) some 69 caliber or so somewhat hard(ish) lead balls for mill...
