Building 12.5 Pistol!

Hi,
Decided to build a 12.5 Pistol as something a little easier to carry in a truck or an around the house defense weapon.

Most that I saw at my LGS were expensive and did not have what I really wanted in the build.

I had a Tactical Machine Lower left from 3 I purchased at one time.

Faced the upper EXPO receiver, to get everything as straight as possible, removed about .005 to get square and flat face.

I show a pic of the upper on a flat mill vise with a square, this proves nothing for accuracy of course, but was just curious and in for the education.

I have an AR-Stoner Linear Muzzle Brake (more accurately- a flash/sound forwarder) on a 300 BLK, but it's on a 16" barrel. I cannot feel any increase in recoil over the A2 Birdcage that was there previously. I did a fair amount of research on linear compensators/brakes/flash/sound forwarders online before purchasing one, and I can confirm that my experience with it matches the results that others have reported- if there's any increase in recoil it's too small to physically measure.

Might be like a "magnum" pellet gun, or maybe a CB cap... 😉

That one is the wrong thread pattern for a 5.56 barrel. Probably a very good choice if you get one with the correct thread pitch.
That's the correct thread pitch for my 300 BLK.
No telling who actually made it.
From what I can find... "AR-STONER™ products are manufactured in the USA in an ISO 9001:2008 registered facility."

Spent a fair bit of time in Quitman, Thomasville, and Moultrie riding horses back in the 70's.
