I have been wanting to build an AR10 in the .243 cal for a long time now.
I was watching the upper receiver assemblies with the .243 stainless barrel in the midway usa site and finally dropped the bucks for one, this is where it get interesting. LOL
I milled a Ceratac lower receiver a while back, got in the upper from Midway aaaand, it dont fit. I contacted Ceratac and got one of their upper receivers stripped, it got here last Friday.
So I am now in the process of disassembling the ARStoner upper receiver and converting the components over to the Ceratac upper.
I did not realize how many tools it is going to take, instructions is calling for vice block, there also is some sort of a shaft that fits into the chamber locking lugs and an assortment of other tools.
I am wondering if the vice block and all the other tools is really necessary, I know I can get the barrel nut removed okay but, I do not want to destroy any components getting it all shifted to the Ceratac upper.
Anyone have any hints or suggestions ?

I think that would be a real good idea to send out an email to the members and let them know the site is up and running once again.

I know there was many times I tried to get into the site and after quite a while finally gave up.
I am happy to see the site up and running and hope it continues going.

It's been eating at me that the site was down so long and inactive so long. There's always the option of sending out a mass email with news. What do you think about doing a give away and use that as a reason to send out and email to everyone?

Can I use a AR-15 gas tube or must I get an AR-10 tube from Aero only?

So it seemed that the site was offline for a while and now it is back.
Any way to get the word out?

Well, I finally got mine back. The intent was to cut and thread the 10T barrel for a suppressor. After 20 years, the hand guard wouldn't come of, so it was destroyed. So, Armalite 15 inch rails, Oden low pro and adjustable gas block, QD Suppressor flash, and other appropriate gun smith work; a SASS conversion for less than $600.00. MSRP for a SASS upper, $1841.00. Guess I can live with that.

I noticed the post were old, and was surprised. It's not as if the AR 10 is a dying breed. However, I'm also a 300 Blk fan and that, along with the 6.5 Creed is the new gun nut rage.
Fully intend to enjoy the conversion, esp. when the CAN comes in.

Site showed your post count as 1 so I figured you were new here, nobody has posted much for a good long while here. Still a ton of good info to be had though. Enjoy the new configuration!Read More...
Thanks for the welcome!! Have not posted to the site in a long time. I've been shooting .223 for years and my 10T has been gathering dust. Started shooting my Rem. 40X and decided to get back on the 308 train. Hence, the idea of the SASS configuration.

Hey Bro,
Up from you in FLL. Have owned my 10T for 20 years, I think. Back when they came with 24 inch CM barrels. Decided to modify it into a SASS configuration. Cut & Crown barrel to 20 inches, thread for a CAN, and put new Armaltie Rails, and low profile adjustable gas block on it. Maybe he'll get it done by the time ATF approves my CAN.
Gunsmith is catching the devil trying to get the barrel nut off to turn the barrel. That seems to be an issue for 10T barrels, as I researched the process and others have had great difficulty getting the barrel off.
Don't know where you shoot in Mia, but Markham Park here in Broward.

from Iowa!
Just got my first semi auto on 308. Looking to learn as much as possible from the more experience shooters on the forum, both in overall gas gun techniques and reloading for them.
Being shooting my bolt gun for a while now and got interested in trying a new weapon.
