8.6 blackout
I have given thought to this round tho. I have a SBR 12" 308 large frame that I could pop a shawty 8.6 upper on but im waiting to see if the round sticks around. Not sure if my SiCo hybrid would work for it tho.

I'm pretty sure that's a pinned 14.5" barrel.

If you reload and the modification is as easy as the .223 to .300blk then I would not worry about availability.
.223 to .300 blk is just chopping at the shoulder, resizing and then trimming.
That's it.

got a question for you guys.
i just sold a Colt 16" barrel to a dude in Connecticut. got it boxed up and ready to ship.
now i'm watching the latest Washington Gun Law video and he's talking about a CT AWB. that got me thinking... am I legally able to sale/ship this barrel to CT?
I head over to PSA's shipping restrictions page:
I'm thinking I should refund this guy his money.

Ehhh idk man I think I would refund that one I don't know if they have different rules for personal sales but I wouldn't want to find out the hard way.

It doesnt talk about parts but it seems you cant have any new ARs only ones made on or before the ban? I wouldnt risk dat without at least calling someone up there in CT but that doesnt seem worth it.

Newly defined Assault Weapons:
Any newly defined assault weapon that was lawfully purchased on or before April 4, 2013, but was not transferred by that date, may be transferred pursuant to such lawful purchase and a sales authorization number may be obtained for such transfer. Sellers are required to verify that a lawful purchase occurred on or before April 4, 2013 prior to transferring such firearm.
Proof of lawful possession will also be required by DESPP from the owner of the firearm with the Application for Certificate of Possession of Assault Weapon. Forms are currently being developed for this purpose.
Who may possess Assault Weapons in Connecticut?
Law enforcement and military personnel may possess Assault Weapons in connection with their official duties, and any person who has a Certificate of Possession issued by the Special Licensing and Firearms Unit may possess the Assault Weapon listed on their certificate.
Can I get a Certificate of Possession for my Assault Weapon now?
Yes, a Certificate of Possession must be obtained prior to January 1, 2014 The only exceptions to this would be a person who has been out of state serving in the military prior to October 1994, or a person who receives an Assault Weapon through bequeath or intestate succession providing the weapon already had a certificate. In these instances, the person has 90 days to register the weapon with the Special Licensing and Firearms Unit.
I just moved into Connecticut and I possess an Assault Weapon. May I keep the weapon or if not what are my options?
Within 90 days of moving to Connecticut, you may sell the weapon to any licensed gun dealer, or you must do one of the following;
render the weapon permanently inoperable,
sell it to an out of state dealer,
relinquish the weapon to a law enforcement agency.
If you choose to keep the weapon you risk felony arrest.

I don't know what the restrictions on a personal seller would be but may not be worth the trouble it might cause.

I called 3 gun stores in CT, and they all said it should be fine to ship. The only restriction they have is that they need fixed magazines... I assume similar to CA.

one of the guys i talked to said you can't even get a screw from PSA.
PSA might've went a bit overboard, but rightfully so.

So, I played around a bit with the 300 blk build and still had issues. So I drilled out the gas port to 7/64".
Bolt locks back every time on supers now. But when firing a follow up round from the magazine, I get light primer strikes 80% of the time. Never a light strike on the first round. Assuming there's a higher friction with rounds in the mag pushing on the bolt. Just enough to load a new round, but not enough to fully set the hammer? But seems like that doesnt add up. Or maybe it wasn't fully in battery and I never noticed?
In any case I still had issue with subs. So I drilled it out to 1/8" and will try again tomorrow. Just taking the advice finch found where Just as soon open it up fully before screwing around with springs.
Cross checked any parts I could on my 5.56 to see if maybe they're was another issue, but all worked flawlessly. Thinking the m16 bolt, bolt adapter for my LawTactical folder, and 300 blk in general are all working together to create an undergassed situation.

Sounds to me like the bolt isn't fully into battery.
That makes me think something with the spring or buffer.
ETA: Hit your forward assist and see if it will go fully back into battery.
May just be tight tolerances and needs to be shot.

I would have thought if it's going back enough to pick up a round, then the heavier bolt system would have gone into battery easier. So that wasn't even on my mind at the range. I never checked and immediately thought as I got home that could be it. Still issues with the subs though. Could be ammo, but hoping it's not a finicky dastardly. I like cheap ammo .

Thats what I was going to say as well after the first shot hit the FA and fire. I haven't fooled with a LAW folder but maybe thats doing something fricky. Or she maybe too tight and just needs to be played with some to loosen up

Drilled out to 1/8" has port. Subs and supers lock back reliably. Still consistent issues with light primer strikes on second rounds even after hitting forward assist. Not thinking it's a fire control group, or even bolt issue since I can't recall a single first round failure. kind of lost
