The hogs get shot. I'm still apparently learning how to spell......lol
Great kill. What state is he taken in. I hear that feral pigs are expanding to Pennsylvania.

The feral pig IS expanding. A sow becomes sexually mature at 6 months and can litter 2-3 times a year with 6-12 piglets per litter. That's a LOT of pigs in a very short time. TX estimates that upwards of 20% of the population must be eliminated annually IOT control that population. Here in OK, farmers lose 10's of thousands of dollars a year to hogs because of damage to crops/croplands.Great kill. What state is he taken in. I hear that feral pigs are expanding to Pennsylvania.
I will second the recommendation for a Geissele trigger. Most of my ARs have a Geissele unit in them and they work great!As far as triggers go, I know that Timiney (cant spell it) has a decent one, but I'm sure that others also make a good one.
Ruger looks, again, to have done a good job on this rifle. It should be very popular, along with the M&P 7.62 model.
Around my neck of the woods, most want 200 bucks more for the Sig as compared to the Ruger.
Going from a 16" barrel to an 18" barrel will add weight with no substantial gain in performance.An 18in bbl version does sound interesting, to include an A2 stock.
The combination might bump up the overall weight of the rifle however.
The lube combines with the carbon and forms a hard "crust" when it cools. In excessive amounts, it can hang up the gun and it's a PIA to clean out. Look at the tail of the bolt on a DI AR. That's the sort of crust I'm referring to.What happens if you do lube the piston?

It's not a fast process by any means, unless you give the gas system a healthy squirt of lube prior to putting several hundred rounds down range, LOL. But it can build up over time.I figured it would "coke" with the wrong oil - sounds like it happens fast.
Leupold IMS - Integral Mounting System Mark 2 Mount SystemI didn't realize that Leupold made a one piece mount for this type of rifle.
Thanks for the info.
How does it shoot now since you have replaced the trigger?
