Is there any purpose to owning more than one AR15? Why do people buy the same rifle over and over again? It seems like autism.
>>
>>61587140
I've got a normal lower and an SBR lower, and a cheapo PSA in the attic that I'm doing a storage test on. I've got 5.56, .458 and .350L uppers for them. that seems pretty reasonable to me..
>>
it's one thing if they're slightly different (various barrel lengths and sighting options) or even better, of various calibers, but literally identical rifles is a thing I've seen before and I don't get it
>>
let me guess, recent HOP upload?
>>
>>61587160
what the fuck is a HOP
>>
Yes. Different ARs look, feel, and shoot differently, and shoot different things at different things.
Companies send free shit out those with social media presence regularly, so there's that.
Guns tend to appreciate in value, so some might choose to use them as a form of investment vehicle that's also fun, or rather, something that's fun that they can sell later for a gain.
I have an AR-15. I'd also like to get an AR-10 at some point, but the BAR MkIII looks pretty tasty, too.

No. You build out one high quality lower, a high quality SBR upper and a high quality 16+ inch upper for intermediate range, Everything above that belongs to a different caliber.

I live in a nice white Chicago neighborhood. During the Floyd riots, I guarded my home from the reverse slope of the roof. I wore level four and had two identical semi-auto carbines with a thousand rounds plus pistol.

I had the second weapon for mag compatibility for when the barrel on the principal firearm jammed or overheated. Had hundreds of rioters sparked up molotov cocktails near the house, my plan was literally to kill them all. It's still my plan.

Yeah, different configurations for different purposes. IMHO the optimum number of AR lowers is two. SBR one of them and set it up to be super compact with a single-stage or binary trigger. Set up the other for precision with an adjustable stock, 2-stage target trigger, etc. Buy uppers as needed.

>>61587156
Same, I can understand having different guns or even just uppers for totally different purposes, but having a bunch of overlap doesn't make sense to me.

Parts and ammo for them are extremely easily accessible and they are very modular. There's an AR15/AR10 for literally everyone who wants some sort of semi automatic rifle in many calibers. I like my AR15s because I can find any replacement accessory or part real easy.

As much as I hate the hype train myself, they're honestly hard to argue against if you want a semiautomatic rifle. They're available in tons of different calibers. They're easy to work on with minimal special tools required. The aftermarket is huge. You can configure them for all sorts of different roles: retro clones, tacticool larpsticks, long-range precision rigs, various types of hunting applications, etc. The ability to swap uppers and therefore calibers so easily is huge.

They're relatively cheap, accurate, and reliable which makes them perfect for most casual gun owners. On top of that the absurd level of customization allows you to do as little or as much as you'd like to customize it exactly to your needs. Folding stocks are a meme anyway.

Well you can make AR pistols so you gotta do that, and everyone should own a 16" because that's the most basic configuration, and might as well get a 20" so you can get that full ballistics, and maybe then dip your toes in 300blk or 6.5 creedmore or 9mm and might as well build a.... So on and so forth.

yes, because ARs themselves are autistic retards
if you want to fire a different round or add a suppressor you have reconfigure much of the rifle to get it to work properly

I usually just dangle it loose in front, but even if it's tightened, it's got a quick release thing in the stock, and two more quick release things on the sling itself. Works for me. If I was a Navy Seal Operator Recon Marine Devil Dog, maybe I'd need to adjust my sling strap every five minutes, but I'm not, so I don't.
All my other guns are retro/world war/cowboy shit, so normal canvas or leather slings work for those.

Actually, DSB was almost right about it being an attempt at making an old configuration tacticool.

Since this is a Hop thread I'll use one of his videos. While I appreciate the autism with your makeshift sling and if it works for you then it works for you whatever nigga but adjustable slings aren't a meme or anything. They are extremely easy to adjust on the fly.
>>
>>61590734
Both ends are open for whatever hardware you want for attaching the sling to the gun, and being a tailed sling you can run it as tight as you want or as loose as you'd ever want—without any fiddly motor skills, you can cinch it down tight enough to not appreciably bounce around while doing jumping jacks, and then run it out loose enough to shoot from either shoulder at a flick of a wrist. If that functionality doesn't appeal to you, so be it.

My only complaint is that you had no controls and nothing to compare it against.

I actually think we're in a great place with ARs. You can do just about whatever the fuck you want with one. Whether you want basic or you want to accessorize to tailor to your use case. You can even do distance shooting with AR-10s. Everyone owns an AR for a reason.

For me, it's a cycle of buying or building an AR, realizing there's things about it that I don't like or that I want to do differently, maybe selling it, and buying or building another AR. Rinse and repeat. Unfortunately, it's hard to sell an AR you put together (and get anywhere even close to a fair selling price), so it really pays to know exactly what you're going for before you start buying parts, but it's hard to figure out what that is until you've owned a few. At some point, you start to get funny ideas about stashing your unwanted rifles somewhere secret, just in case.

anon described a serviceable base rifle with a cheap optic. That doesnt sound like its kitted out with military styled accessories like a flashlight and mlok shit. and >>61591247 If the base rifle is milspec then it meets your criteria for combat capable. If the owner is bringing it to the range solely to plink or something then who fucking cares?

anons who spent thousands on accessories that only make a marginal difference in most simple contexts.

I see guys in ukraine with basic magpul builds and shitty holosuns doing infinitely more than arg types will. My own personal duty rifle has an eokek 512 because its a gwot clone and because if I ever get into a situation where no 50,000 hour battery life is getting me killed it means I fucked up extremely hard. A lot of these ideas the duty kit builders use to justify spending $15k on a plate carrier and one gun purposely ignore that last bit about avoiding those situations in the first place

Uses a solid top receiver that's optic friendly as fuck.

Basically, you get one rifle so you can do all of the shit that you don't want to do to your other rifle
The AR is so good and has so much potential that it can't fit into one gun

>>61588690
What build?
>>
>>61588280
>I don't even understand the AR-15 hype anyway. Maybe someone can explain it to me unironically.
Echoing some of the other guys in the thread -
Cheap. Reasonably tough. Light. Works. Ammo is also cheap and light. Highly modular. It'll put down a man quite decisively. A woman or a lightly-built man can use one easily and accurately. Everyone pretty much knows what to expect out of one, and anyone with military experience in the US (which is millions of people) used it at least a few times in boot.
The AR system has a handful of well-understood drawbacks, none of which are critical issues, and there's a variant out there that fixes literally all of them. Plus caliber swaps, even weird tweaks like manual actions.
Case in point:
>folding stock
There are many captive-buffer stock systems, several of which are bolt-on options to any milspec AR. Or you can get an -18, which also fixes the issues with gas blasting you in the face.

You really can't underscore the price advantage enough, either. My own AR has a several basic modifications, built off a good receiver I picked up in a pawnshop, and all together it cost me under four hundred bucks. My hunting rifle and its scope were around half again the price I paid for the AR.
ARs are also fun for doing dumb shit on a whim. I've got a can launcher I welded up myself out of a blown barrel a friend fucked up. He sold it to me for a case of Session blue label, I threw it onto a garbo 20% receiver I filled out with a sub-$50 parts kit because it was never gonna be more than a single-shot anyway. Now I have a silly blooper for the price of a surplus wall-hanger, and I didn't have ruin a real gun to get it. Nor do I have to hand-load custom blanks.

>>61590796
>>61591113
>>61591225
Honestly, if I *could* afford The Real Good Shit I'd dump the poverty pony in a heartbeat. But I agree there's a HELL of a difference between a $50 "optic" and a $150 one, and I'm willing to pay the extra there.
>>
>>61587140
you need the following ARs.

7,5" - for creating fireballs
10,5" - for rocking a Colt 733 style clone
14,5" - for the military M4 vibe
16" - for having rifle without SBRing stuff (in the US at least)
20" - for a Vietnam style M16A1
24" - for having a bullbarrel precision rifle AR

then add the various intermediate lenghts like 11,3" and 12,5" and such as well as an 18" IPSC racegun

that's just for .223/5,56

then you need at least one .22LR
and at least two 9mm ARs, one short for fun and one 16" for IPSC style competition

then a 45ACP for bowling pin shooting matches
and a .300 BLK if you're already down the suppressor hole

that's what you need at least in ARs

As compared to what other worthless platform?
>It's an accurate rifle, majority of high end uppers can achieve sub moa groupings on 77otms or 68/69grs.
>completely modular
>can build to whatever specifics you want, including tuning for specifically what you like in recoil/cyclic rate/gassing
>reliable closed system
>infinite mounting options on most builds which actually does matter(looking at you aug a3/m2), more so if you're running nods
>can be as cheap or as expensive as you want, with the average 1700-1900 dollar range being pretty much peak build, after that the gains are minimal
>excellent trigger options
There's 0 downsides to an AR15, besides the majority not having an adjustable gas system, which is where adjustable aftermarket gasblocks/bcgs come into play if that's a major concern for you
you have the >muh bullpup superior crowd, when the majority have never shot or used a bullpup for extended time periods who don't bring up the general issues of the platform besides work arounds for triggers.
For the same price of the aug a3, you can get a geissele superduty or another pretty top tier build that'll be a significantly better performer overall out of the box(unless you don't like 2 stage triggers specifically when ref to the superduty, but if you mention any bullpup that nullifies that complaint).

First of all you need a short 5.56 gun. Then you’ll want a longer barrel so you can get more ass out of the round.Then you’ll want a 308 simply because it is so common so you’ll have to own one. Then you’ll want a 6.5 with a long barrel so you can shoot far. Then you’ll want a 300blk SBR because it’s quiet and common and has good capacity. Then you’ll want an 8.6 shorty to get the lethality out of a subsonic round that you hoped to get out of the 300blk.

Own one with a 20" barrel as God intended and Eugene Stoner complied with, the second one can be an SBR (if you're rich, and you should put a suppressor on it too) or an AR pistol (if you're poor). After that, you can start getting them in different calibers.

Meh all you really need is one 20" AR in 5.56 with a decent LVPO an IR laser mounted to it and another 16" rifle or 14" pistol chambered in 300BO with whatever your favorite flavor of non shit red dot brand is but if you don't wanna pay or can't afford to to feed your gun 300BO then just a 9mm Glockozine fed PCC AR and accept the limitations that come with it since it's just for home defense anyway and in the scenario someone high on bath salts is trying to eat your face you'd just end up mag dumping them anyway.

I agree. I can see the point in having 2 for redundancy, in case one is broken or stolen or confiscated by police. Or one for home and one for car, etc... But any more than 2 is unnecessary. I have three myself, only because the market is so flooded that I could not sell my shittier ones for more than peanuts, so it's not worth it to sell at this point. Having a functional AR-15 is worth more than $450 in cash to me. I should vacuum seal one, then put it in a sealed PVC tube along with like extra mags and like 300 rounds of ammo and bury it, just as a prepper goof in case of SHTF or confiscations in the future. If society collapsed, that would be like a gold mine.
