>>62141988@fishy what's the stroker you use the blue and red one how much is it what brand ar15
>>62141988So are super safeties legal or not? Is the ATF just pretending that they don't exist?
>>62142072Super safeties are the same operating principle as FRT-15's (strike reset) and therefore included by the recent decision in Texas
>>62142031uh Emelie and like $100? its not worth it anon the cleanup and shameful dispray to your ancestors watching is guilt inducing. go to church and do drugs instead
>>62142505Drugs are bad
>>62142556So is being morbidly obese
>>62141662i like the additional height the KRAM spacer provides. its not a perfect fit because the KRAM moves it back too by design, so i reversed it; this way it raises the ACOG and doesn't move it back.
>>62142556Not that one though.
Fuck off
>>62142570>the KRAM moves it back too by designI used to want that but I think I'm good now after moving the stock in a click. Probably get called a manlet if I ever post it.
>>62142582that should definitely help, I have long arms so I always have my stocks fully extended. LaRue mounts help give a little more rear bias. big fan of moving my rear buis forward to make space.really just want a retro upper lol
>>62142601I've got the other larue mount so it doesn't help bring it back. Missed the dealz so this is the price I pay. I think you're going to like the new build it's a good length and everything about it is light and functional. I don't even care about weight but when you pick one up it's like nothing in your hands.
What is the best magnified optic if you have a rifle with an fsp?
>>62142784ACOG
>>62142784Choose anything, you don't see the FSP past like 3-4x depending on the height of the optic.
>>62142788What is something cheaper and not the best?>>62142799What is something more specific?
>>62143011just save up for an acog
>>62143011>optics>cheapjust run a red dot until you can save up for an ACOG or a elcanif you 'need' magnified optics, just get the sig red dot magnifier and run that until you can save up for an ACOGif you want an alternative these apparently arent terrible but its worse in about every way to an ACOG or elcanhttps://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arms-slx-5x-microprism-with-red-illuminated-acss-aurora-556-308-reticle-yard
I am going to get a fake dissy. I want the look and sight radius of the dissipator but I don't want to deal with the finicky gas. I can't find anyone that sells faux dissipator uppers with chfcl barrels much less other good components, so I'll just build it out over time
>>62143032this. Is eBay the best way to cop cheap acogs still?
>>62143039gafs
>>62143074yeah I guess I just have to check every day again to make gafs worth it
>>62143039just be careful with ebay to make sure you dont get scammed or that the glass isnt crackedpersonally for an ACOG id just bite the bullet and save up for a new one just so i know its new, even used ones are only like $200 off at best, usually its only about $100 offa lot of places will do free shipping for ACOGs due to the price but used ones wont so its more realistically like $85-$165 off for used and you run the risk of it being damaged in some way
>>62143089if i were you, id come up with a budget to save up for an ACOG and then split that budget in half, spend half of the acog savings on rounds to put in at the rangeif you can get even better with irons, especially at longer range, then when you do pop on an ACOG you will appreciate it more and youll be a crack shot with it once you get used to it
>>62143121oh I'm not this anon>>62143011 I have the money for a brand new acog but unfortunately can't justify spending the money on it instead of other shit right now. I have a copecog for now but I also recognize I essentially wasted money instead of saving it. That being said I don't regret a thang all my poortex optics have been a fun romp
>>62143136i just run red dots, i think its a waste to get an acogill never shoot enough or do anything to justify an acog, a cheap red dot gives me all the advantage i needi honestly dont even have high enough quality rifles or ammo to take advantage of an acog either
>>62143136i’m the cheap anon and in the same boat you are. can’t justify $800-1200 on a single optic yet. just want something reasonable to fuck around with
>>62143203Primary arms and vortex respectively are chinkshit like the rest but like holosun they at least try and their warranty isn't just a guarantee of failure. that being said their mounts are cheap shit and their optics aren't as battle hardened. But like I let my stupid rifle fall on concrete all the time and the zero hasn't shifted on my particular copecog (vortex spitfire 5x gen2) really the biggest thing it lacks the acog has in spades is FOV. Acog's 36.8 ft vs the spitfire's 23.3>>62143190I wouldn't say it's a waste. Having stuff that will last is always good, albeit I understand your sentiment. I have good ammo, a good barrel, that's it. An acog would be nice, but again I just can't spend the money on it. I would love to
>>62143203You're so much better off just saving up a little longer and getting something good than skimping out on cheap shit because you will inevitably just end up buying that more expensive thing that's actually good anyway. Generally speaking the thing that allows you to see what you're shooting at is worth spending extra money on.
I NEED a mk12
>>62143275RIP to the guy with the fucking Thermold mag. Actually RIP to all of them, I wouldn't want to be carrying a gun in that fucked up war.
>>62143036get a psa for like 200 shrimp poppers
>>62143203Buy once cry once or you will pay twice. This is especially true for optics. Save up for a better optic. The world won’t come crashing down in the next two months
>>62143563>>62143650counter argument: a bird in the hand's worth two in the bush. Buy twice, cry twice. Throw the extra scope in the parts bin for a justforfun upper down the line
>>62142072All fun things are going to get you murdered by the ATF because the law doesn't matter, federal rejects who want to play SWAT just love killing.
>>62143275yeah of the shit i have now i noticed durability hasn’t been the problem with cheaper stuff thankfully. it’s really just performance like clarity and fov which i don’t really mind. the mid tier guys do a decent job of copying the housing structures that the high tier guys innovated 20 years ago to a point where they at least won’t break immediately.>>62143563i know i will but i don’t really care. money isn’t an issue i just have to find out the hard way. i did with reddots in a way and i will with fixed power optics now. i just like getting cheap stuff and seeing if it works or not>>62143650i get the mentality but again money isn’t an issue for me so i don’t really care. i like seeing how capable garbage products can be some times>>62143674this makes sense to me
>>62143684is the atf gay or what?
if you can't just flex on lpvocels at the range while only running irons and NEED an optic, just buy a R5 for $100 and continue saving for something good. the gap between a "middle of the road" optic and an acog is much wider than the one between the R5 and MOTR.
>>62143691>>62143674>waste money on a piece of shit optic>don't use it >waste money on a piece of shit upper later >you won't use that either Alternatively, buy one good optic for whatever type of shooting you do the most of. Buy one good upper that is going to last you. Stop trying to do 15 different meme builds.Spend your money on ammo and actually shooting your gun.
dumbass question: would a scope like picrel really even work all that well on an AR with a 7.5" barrel? i know nothing in theory would mess with it but my gut is saying there'd be issuesof course it'd look silly
Cop or drop?
>>62143736A blank lower with a custom bad dragon rollmark would look better
>>62143691the mounts and the exterior housing redundancy in design are the issues. Aimpoint and Trijicon are subjected to standardized military testing that requires a level of care that catering primarily to the civilian market doesn't necessarily pay dividends. So vortex, primary arms, Holosun, etc.—midtier—their shit just isn't nearly as robust. Like yeah it won't lose zero on the back of the 4x4 on a particularly bumpy road but the lack of care in both the design and the standardized tolerances it begets means it can only handle so much abuse, with aforementioned lack of guarantee. It's a dice roll in a real combat scenario. Home defense isn't that but you WILL embarrass yourself during a TUSC sesh when they inevitably find some scenario to make you smash that shit against a barricade or something. IdkI'm the anon that said bird in the hand, but it's important to remember whatever you consider that isn't an acog is a stopgap and should be treated as such>>62143729I mean desu he might use the optic before he gets an acog. Idk it's been done before.
>>62143736whatever happened to safe, semi, and auto? why do they think people need pictures to tell the difference?
>>62143753universal language babs
>>62143757sounds perfect considering the way this country is headed lmao
>>62143765So true queen
when will i be able to buy a ks1?
>>62143736they just keep getting gayer and gayer
>>62143789I do not know
what video game has an ar15 with the best mouth feel? I wish far cry 2's ar15 wasn't burst that's gay
Are acogs still worth getting if you already have a lpvo? I read that the eye relief on acogs is really bad. Anyone know if it's any better on something like an elcan?
>>62143789when they catch up/complete contract IIRC
>>62143789That’ll be 8k+tip (no accessories included) dumb goyi I mean kac enthusiast
>>62142570ive considered the kram spacer too but i thought it would be too much. i want just a tiny bit more height to clear the raid xe
>>62143812the m4 in bf2 project reality always felt really satisfying to me
>>62143837this, but BC2. Or the 416 in BC1
>>62143847BC2 was so good. The abrams tank noises tickled my brain like nothing else
>>62143729i already have a few decent optics like a 512 and some leopoldo and pa scopes and a few cheap dots and lpvos. i got all the cheap shit before getting the nicer stuff so i’m cool with doing the same with fixed power prisms to see how i like it. as for the meme builds, i WILL not stop. i like assembling rifles of varying quality and seeing how they perform as some have lead to me totally changing my opinion about previously conceived norms.>>62143751i’m totally aware that high tier optics come with a quality and robustness that is unmatched and i have nice rifles too but i don’t like to beat that stuff up. i like beating up cheap crap. one day i’ll get nice optics but i like to see which ones i like first before diving too deep into one thing. based on where i live i don’t need or like reddots too much and i found that the 512 does it for me. i prioritize lpvos and higher mag scopes and i found that out getting cheap shit first before buying my leupolds
>>62143875>totally changing my opinion about previously conceived normsCare to elaborate, anon?
>>62143822Eye relief is just about twice as long on an elcan.ACOG is probably better to get since it's lighter so if you end up putting a thermal on it like an RH25 it's going to be less piggy. Only reason not to is if you really care about passive aiming otherwise you can use a top or canted dot.
>>62143829>KRAMcool rifles. I have the thickest of the 3 heights offered. using the 5.5mm will only raise it .22". that should probably be enough without going too high. I really dont like craning my neck, heads up position is the bees knees.
>>62143812The first CoD: Black Ops M16 was my personal favorite. That and the Medal of Honor Reboot about Takur Ghar
>>62143822>ACOGthe eye relief IS bad however the FOV is enormous so you don't have to utilize the full eye relief. you can pull back slightly and still use it. I have one on the Scar and it's still fine under .308 recoil >ELCAN Specter DR is an amazing optic. Eye relief is good however there is pretty bad ring-out or scope shadow, whatever your favorite term. if you're off center slightly it'll blackout. it loves to be perfectly centered in your sight picture.
Some fag was crying about QC issues with centurion. What are the QC issues with their lowers now?
>>62143966>Im a fag because they sent me a fucked up lowerYeah, go fuck yourself
>>62143011>cheaper magnifier optic probably the primary arms prism sight?don't have any though but they make decent optics. if you have to, flip it on TacSwap for 70% of the initial cost
>>62143875>nice stuff comes with an unmatched robustness >I like beating up cheap crapTranslation:>I know if I spent more money I'd have things that would last me but I am a low impulse dopamine starved gunsoomer so I'd rather break something so I have an excuse to buy something again. I get the whole idea behind trying something lower tier and seeing if you will actually use it but that tends to apply to something that's very niche. A Vortex prism is not going to give you the same user experience as an ACOG so it's a really bad representation of the concept. A better example would be like spending $4-500 on a chink scope like an Arken or Athlon and figuring out if you'll actually be doing all that long range shooting before dropping $3,000 on some flavor of Night Force. The cost of a PA 3x prism is ~$300. The cost of an ACOG is ~$1,000 A used ACOG goes for ~$800It's mathematically better to just buy the ACOG and take a loss on it than it is to buy the PA first.You could also just buy a used ACOG instead.
>>62143995obviously he's buying from at least a reputable brand so they'll replace his chinkshit if it breaks. So he'll end up with two optics in the end and that ain't so shit
>>62143981If you're incapable of expressing what the issues actually are you're an un-ironic fag instead of the normal ironic fag. So, will you actually answer the question or reveal that you actually suck cocks?
>>62143650I stand by buying a cheap holosun, beating the piss out of it until you've saved enough for the main optic you want. Then you'll have an optic for new builds as placeholder. My buddy hates his $300 holosun while I love my hs403b and people love shooting it.
>>62143995what exactly is the user experience difference? The fov? He will absolutely see the difference and will notice the lack of fov on the vortex prism for example. Genuinely curious cuz I've only recommended acogs to my buddies as one would and it's not like I'm seeing in fucking 4d when I'm running them vs my poortex at home. Obviously it's better, obviously, but I'm curious if I'm missing something. Clarity? Fov? Durability? we went over all that already
>>62144014There was someone other than me that also got a screwed up lower posting as well but you know what? Fuck you I’d rather let you get bogged down in a 2 month RMA process than help a nigger faggot such as yourself.
>>62144034you seem nice
>>62144039You started off by calling me a faggot for having a QC problem.
>>62144049I'm not that anon but fag is like nigga here you remember that right? It's not necessarily an insult. I have autism
>>62144034send it to SOTAR, at least we'll get a video out of it.
>>62144021But if you are so poor you can’t just buy this optic now, why are you building multiple rifles? >>62143691>Moneys not an issue. I must have misunderstood then. In that case buy both if you want. I’ve had good experiences with horosun. I thought you couldn’t afford the one and didn’t want to wait Until you could
>>62143789>when will I be able to buy this mil contract rifle. Idn anon maybe when the contract is filled which is gonna be a while
>>62143828
>>62143822I don’t like ACOGs. The eye relief really holds it back imo. Why get another optic with a terrible eye box if you already have a LPVO
>>62144034>Proceeds to NOT answer the question as I predictedI WANT a new fucking lower yet you faggots who cry and bitch can't ever answer simple questions like >what's wrong?
>>62144124>Ambimars or ADM>milspec Noveske Gen 1
>>62144124centurion, SR-15, or mars
>>62144124PRI rollmark is cool and has mk12 creds
>>62144147I don't need ambi and the noveske is 300 dollars? >>62144157centurion is what I want to get but that twink is crying about how their QC is dogshit. I'm trying to get him to tell me what is wrong with his lower
>>62144031The glass, clarity, FOV, durability, and fit/finishWithout looking at the specs of the vortex i know it costs twice as much as the PA so I would assume you're getting better glass with it. Personally I'd just jump up to an ACOG and skip the vortex since it's not that much cheaper >>62144093They're different things for different jobs. LPVOs really shine in match shooting with varied target distances. You can also just throw it on 6 power and use an offset dot for the closer stuff. ACOG shines on a fighting rifle where durability, weight, and FOV are all of prime importance. ACOGs aren't gong to give you any shit and you're not going to be running and gunning with 4x so the eye relief isn't a huge deal.Probably nice to put a thermal in front of too without totally bogging down
>>62144078I'm really tempted to buy one of these so I have a .22 plinker, especially with the mag rebate
>>62143822it depends anon, what are you putting it on? I think the main drawback is the low magnification vs a LPVO, but if you only wanna shoot to around 500yds it's still manageable.I think it's a waste not to have at least 6x magnification on a 16" carbine, but on a shorter rifle I think the ACOG is at home
>>62144167centurion is fine, rule #1 is don't listen to twinksAny lower from a reputable brand is gtg, fuck you could even just get an Aero with the og rollmark
>>62142601Someones gonna have to explain how having a RCO behind an EOTech works. Also if you have a mag holder on your buttstock you're an AIDs riddled POG
>>62144183>aeroI try not to get duplicates and I wanted something with an M16 cut. Probably should have started off with saying all this but my initial goal as I mentioned was trying to get the homosexual to describe his issues so I know what to be on the lookout for.
>>62144181If they made a 1-6 SFP LPVO with a nice crosshair reticle with a fine center dot aiming point that would still work after being dropped onto the concrete from a 2 story building I would be all over it. But they don't so I have an elcan instead
>>62144192>cog behind dotMid 2000s fudd nonsense, it doesnt work
>>62144192The Israelis did this for a while, they'd take old TA01's with burnt out tritium and instead of just paying Trij to refurb them refurb, they'd use them as thumbscrew QD magnifiers behind Eotechs.>>62144204No, it works, I've tried it with my (working) ACOG
>>62144192have prism optic, but not illuminated. place eotech in front to magnify the illuminated reticle.
>>62144199>m16 cutDSA, Centurion, SOLGW, Geissele, Ripcord industries. PSA probably sells them as well but idk how to identify them. biggest issue with lowers would probably be out of spec pin holes but considering these are all reputable and have decent customer service (except maybe geissele) it isn't even an issue imo
>>62143893mainly aspects like durability of cheap optics, barrel profile and length, lower quality.>opticssome cheap lpvos and dots really surprised me. i bought an athlon 1-4x like a decade ago and i pulverized it over the years. the battery finally stopped working and it doesn’t hold zero but it gave me a good 5 years and many drops. same thing with a burris rt6 that’s still running just fine and that was my first lpvo. i have some shitty sig dot i forget the model (not the msr) but i bought it on sale for like $100 and it’s still fine and seen a decent amount of abuse.>barrelsbuying cheap barrels to test profile, finish and length/gas has really opened my eyes to see the limitations and advantages on each. for instance, pencil profile i thought was useless but it turned out to be pretty good and poi not bad depending on finish. it also confirmed that there is nothing better than quality chrome lined barrel.>lowersas long as it’s not a lemon it really doesn’t matter unless you prefer ambi controls which i’m a righty so i don’t. sure mag switches are a half second longer but idc.>>62143989i am leaning towards the pa prisms. not sure which one yet, i’ll probably check out the micro 3x
>>62144167Yeah I was considering posting all my customer service screencaps but now I won’t. Insulting someone to get answers isn’t the best idea.
>>62144200I don't understand why people like the fine crosshair so much. The BDC portion of the reticle is already made up of fine crosshairs, and that's what you're gonna be using for precision/distance shootingSo imo the only point of a fine center crosshair is for shooting tight groups on paper at 25yds (what most rifle shooters do) or if you're a retard and dial your BDC-equipped prism optic for elevation.
>>62144238yeah I knew you were fake but also un-ironically gay. Just another shitposter from discord.
for a mk12 is it better to do the og douglas barrels or CHF CL?
>>62144034>2 monthsMine took 3 months before they sent me another lower
>>62144172yeah that would be true but I got my vortex optics on a student discount and PSA sales. I'm never gonna argue that the acog is better and it's worth it to save for it because it isn't *that* expensive but I do disagree with the assertion that the gulf in quality/experience is so drastic that the meager price difference renders all copecogs not worth touching. I wouldn't agree with that, circling back to my earlier argument here >>62143674I think you have the money to waste there isn't too many reasons not to get one as a stopgap to go shooting with a bdc at range with a carbine, and instead of saving 2 months for an acog, save 4 months and have the acog and the shitcog to put in the parts bin for a beater upper. I agree with >>62144078if you had no optic and were scrounging money, I would agree that not saving for an acog and buying something else would be stupid. Because yes you will not be gaining anything from that as you won't be shooting anyways
>>62144245Nope but feel free to believe what ever you want. If you’re a douche to me I’m a douche to you it’s that simple.
>>62144247Speaking strictly in terms of accuracy, of Douglas. But they weren't considering longevity in that
>>62144258>Centurion QC issues? >Yes!>May I see it?>No
>>62144260how long do those barrels typically last?
>>62143812I like the ones in the Arma 3 SOG DLC
I find it funny how newfags try so hard to fit in. especially when they don't know anything and need help.
>>62144230Thanks for those suggestions.
>>62144281Depends on the firing schedule and barrel profile and cleaning schedule, but assuming a low rate of fire one might expect for the usecase ur describing, somewhere between 8,000-12,000 rounds. 8,000 would be never cleaning, high rate of fire, with real barrel burning ammunition/cartridges. I was gonna give a lower end but we are talking about 5.56 so
>>62144293np, just don't make a reddit build
leftover chinese food for lunch. Woke up at 4 today.
>>62144291can you give an example?
>>62144310cool, thanks anon. I'll just get the PRI rifle/upper then since they come with the douglas. Only other issue is I'm not sure what optic to get. Considering a Credo 2.5x10.>>62144315Chinese food is basically meant for being reheated
>>62144312I wanted to go with centurion originally because their rollmark is significantly less tacky compared to others. Stupid reason I know.
>>62143966>>62143981>>62144014>shitting on the anon you’re trying to get an answer out of????

>>62144355>samefag crying stillFag is used as a catchall term newfag. If that's enough to prevent you from sharing this apparently readily available information, then fuck off to another website.
>>62144362I'll look into that, thanks. Anybody I try to watch videos about mk12's either uses vortex or the OG leupold, and considering I know nothing about MPVO's I'm a bit lost
>>62144244Not the crosshair itself but the dot in the center of it. More for being able to get a tighter group which is going to help you out with the rest of the BDC. It's not that big of a deal. Something like a Vortex Razor 1-6 is plenty good enough. I would just like an option that has more durability in mind but the market doesn't really see a need to do that so I'll just stick with the elcan and if I want more magnification than that I'll go up to an actual scope. >>62144252I don't agree with the concept of a beater upper in the first place though. I firmly believe in a less is more approach and just having 1 or 2 good carbines and a good gas 308 or 6.5 and calling it a day and pursuing other things like night vision because even if you're just a hobbyist shooting at night is still cool.
>>62144373>can’t into detecting samefaghope he doesn’t give you anything btw
>>62144386>having 1 or 2 good carbinesbut then we'd miss out on pictures of 8 rifles laid on a linoleum floor, all canless, running horosuns and braces
>>62144386>I firmly believe in a less is more approach and just having 1 or 2 good carbines and a good gas 308 or 6.5 and calling it a day and pursuing other things like night vision because even if you're just a hobbyist shooting at night is still cool.I get it. but I'm gunsmithanon so I have a different approach to firearm ownership, having experience—even with garbage—is valuable to me. every gun I own ends up being the baseline for a variety of projects

>>62143995my bad didn’t see this post. faggots like you have plagued this whole site and especially this general for years. you just repeat the same line over and over again like>low impulse control gunsooomerbecause you use it to cope for some weird insecurity you have that typically means you are one or all of these>someone who doesn’t shoot>someone who doesn’t own a gun>someone pessimistic and incapable of having a good timei just like owning and shooting my rifles and don’t mind acquiring cheap stuff from time to time before i buy something in the same category of better quality.>>62144078yeah money is no issue. like i said i don’t like dots much after years of shooting them. i’m probably done with my 512 but maybe it might change in the future. i have 2 other dots one sig and one was garbage i don’t even have or know anymore.
>>62144425On the one hand the other anon's parroting comes from a mentality that goes beyond this site or even hobby, it's the type of person that cheers for the Patriots and only gets apple products. they don't see the process as enjoyable, just doing it "right"On the other hand I blame people like Lucas botkin for making having a variety of niche firearms as well as your 'duty' stuff seem stupid or childish, because we have to take this seriously like a 'job' otherwise it's consumerism.

>>62144425>ermm actually it's you that's coping >proceeds to throw out a bunch of random shit hoping some of it sticks >I have lots of money I just can't be bothered to buy something good because I just can't okI shoot more than you and have a better gun than you. Enjoy your gunslop you brainrotted consoomer faggot
>>62144566was this the one where the insurgents were tracking the jtac's strobe with a camcorder?
>>62144566Yeah opening was the strongest, rest was blah
>>62144584If I bought a kak bcg it would be that sandcutter knockoff
>>62144584I don't understand fucking around with a million BCGs. If you're not going to buy a KAC E3 upper or an LMT enhanced BCG, just buy a mil-spec Microbest and be done with it.
I’m done buying AR15s I think I’m gonna get a Bren 2 this weekend to try out piston
>>62144645I'm building a 601 retro so I need chrome. Only H&R makes a chrome BCG with no serrations but I don't want to buy that. Or I do but I can't just get the carrier separately and put a nitrided bolt in it without spending the same amount as an LMT/Colt/DD/BCM complete bcg
>>62144645>mil-spec MicrobestMid-spec Microcrack. Get a BCM or DD.
>>62144671Ah very cool anon. let me share my own journey trying to find a chromed bcg>1. Wilson combat - junk that didn't work>2. Brownells slick side - junk that didn't work>3. H&R slick side - junk that didn't work Theres a sionics np3 in it now because i already had it, it looks kinda grey, and most importantly, it actually works.
>>62144692>sionics np3Looks good. I'll bookmark it. My rifle isn't gonna be a true clone so I'm not opposed to "chrome like"
>>62144607>blah blah blahcool, now stop shitting up the thread
>>62144665Be sure to post it (you won't)
>>62144684why not the large staked (whatever it's called) black niitrided microbest?
>>62143789I think something is wrong with that ks1
I should get the arisaka side mount.
>>62144247Krieger from my research. I have a centurion now but that's probably what I want to put in it next
PISTON BROS I DONT FEEL SO GOOD
>>62144803Yeah
>>62144917Not chasing accuracy so I'll skip the custom stuff initially, though I appreciate it. How does the centurion do?And would I get eaten alive for just getting a PRI upper?
Did a hack paint job on my beater AR (Springfield lower, PSA “premium” upper)
>>62145067not bad, throw some tan in there if you want
>>62145047>How does the centurion do?Green goo
>>62145002damn, was Clint in a house fire or something?
>>62144917Once again, are you beer canning that vfg? There isn’t enough room to place your hand in front of it and use it as a hand stop unless you have the hands of a Keebler elf
>>62145047PRI uppers are great, if you have the money they're a good option. You get a good warranty
>>62145231it's there because he overpaid for it and needs to flex it
>>62145242*she
>>62144178I’ve been itching for a full size 22lr plinked for a while. The mag rebate was what convinced me to get the Taurus that and the FN 502 is an Umarex product. I need to get a dedicated 22lr can for it though.
>>62143729So much this. Somtimes you waste so much money & ammo on memeshit only to realize you had it all along ok ppl so just enjoy what you have dont waste money unless your rich & just shoot shoot shoot lol
>>62143567Yes>>62144917>CenturionO hell ya bröthur>>62145047Centurion makes a fine barrel. PRI makes a fine upper. End of story desu
>>62145047The centurion is fine but probably a little over priced. It's the same price basically as a Douglas but it doesn't group as great as I'd expect >>62145231I c-clamp everything. There's enough room >>62145242That's like a 10 dollar grip dude lmao
>>62144247There are some really accurate CHFCL barrels but stainless is a much better bet, especially if it's qpq it'll probably shoot moa forever
>>62144720erm no>>62145067looks good to me
>>62145232>>62145271>>62145274Sounds good, thanks y'all. PRI Mod 0 soon then. I apologize in advance for the increase in optics and bipod related inquiries>>62145284I'll check it out, never heard of qpq before.
>>62143203Get a used eokek 552 on ebay or tac swap. I paid $200 for mine, the seller was selling it as airsoft for some reason but it is clearly legit. The benefit of buying older salty optics is that they also have more SOVL
keymod is making a comeback, screenshot this shit mcel retards, digits btw
>>62145335
>>62145325The only reason for an eokek is passive aiming or cloning. What's your excuse?
>>62145354Both but mostly clooning, the BCM upper is my main squeeze, the M4 is just autism
Shill me a spr upper otherwise I’m just gonna grab a ris3 16” upper and call it good enough. Moving my atacr off the tac3. Tac3 only groups well with ~70gr and my ddm4v7 is accurate with 55-77 shit. I’m just gonna throw my old comp m4 on the fn and call it good enough. I could just swap the atafr to the ddv7 but I like my elcan on it
>>62145369That's a fine way to do it if you aren't cloning
>>62145369you're gonna get made fun of for that rail.
>>62145371Don’t reply to me I don’t want your opinion
>>62145371Ok that’s what I’m gonna do then. It’s barely a spr with an atacr p2 stack anyways but thats what im gonna use it as. Prevents me from blowing money on an a300 patrol too
>>62145384Why are you pretending to be me faggot? Use a filter on Vic you retarded pussy

>>62145384Haha I love it when this happens>>62145388If it works for you it's fine. Most people don't really have sight lines where they need big magnification anyway
>>62145354my excuse is astigmatism lol it's nice being able to make out your reticle
>>62145410make me retard
>>62145437Yeah right now I’m lucky to have 200 yards when I go. I hope my brother lands a job as a pilot soon and we can get serious about buying some land. Little fucker shoots more than me now, proud of him. Last week he went shooting 5 days
>>62145448Hopefully interest rates go down after Zion Don takes over so the market calms down a little
>>62145455Why call the only hope this country has Zion Don?
>>62145475Because he loves Israel

>>62145658Yes they’re redditro.
>>62145603The toads here are protected afaik. I'm honestly not a big time hunter despite having lived in some of the best places for it, is bugs me every year and I keep procrastinating
in the beginning of the new trex armory vid you can tell he tried firing without dropping the bolt.
>>62145027Thanks senpai. Mlok or pic?
Lucas "it's impossible to adjust windage on an AK sight" Shartkin
>>62143965Hmm so the eye relief on an acog is shit but due to the huge field of view the eye box is also huge so you don't have to be perfectly behind the cog in the sweet spot?
>>62143995You're a fagglt fuck you, give msrp of primary chinks 3x when it goes on sale from 150 bones to 180 on the regular check Simmons but you give the magical lucky ass guy USED 2nd hand price for an acog? Get fucked. If they're so great how come people sell them?
>>62145787You sound like a raging poorfag.
>>62144093So field of view does not equal big eye box? Interesting that sucks, very big con. Makes a backup red dot a must for weird position shooting if you do competition etc
>>62144167I think his was something like they didn't mill the hole for the bolt release or the buffer detent.
>>62145787lmao call down dude jeez
>>62145791Only poorfags spend thousands that they can't afford to on things they don't need. Like Ash.
I would like to know your opinion on the most based AR set up. No cringe virgins setups. The type of AR that raw dogs black girls if you know what I mean
>>62145895sr-15 hands down loves colonizing african queens.
>>62145742https://x.com/CollinRugg/status/1815881608236523770
>>62145895SR-15 but only after you've spent 3000 dollars to get KAC to fix the damn thing after three trips back to the factory and a year of waiting.
>>62145742This is Lucas's favorite optic,
>>62144167>$300no, the Gen 1 forged is like $180. Worth it though. Old Noveske pattern is good 2 go. new Noveske meh
>>62145895
>>62145932That would be a good answer if he was asking for the most reddit setup
>>62145764true. but I'm mostly talking about not thinking you have to mash your eye into the ACOG to achieve full FOV. you can pull back a little, increase eye relief distance, and still ring targets.
>>62145934But the most reddit setup is the Brownells DD ris ii upper with an aero m4e1 lower?
>>62145945not after you've dribbled it off the tile in your kitchen
>>62145688Thats like living on the beach and never hitting the water, c’mon man. Just think of it like a range day with 1-2 shots, lots of field work, and hopefully a full freezer after
>>62145954Builds character
>>62145945I just checked the OFFICIAL reddit list and it's not there.>bcm upper aero lower>blood diamond clones>retro modern mashups>anything radian, triarc and solgw

I bought a set of leapers "accu-sync" 45-degree flip-up sights. Conclusion: get sturdier back-up sights than this if you can afford it and they fit on your rifle. If you're stuck with 45 degree due to not being willing to remove an optic, maybe MBUS pros or Troy. If you can have all your sights up top, just use standard A2 style sights if you have the room.They're kind of flimsy in terms of repeatability. Yes, out of box they seem like they'll reliably detent close enough to the same "up" position every time, but there's places for grit to accumulate that will eventually get in the way of that. Further, there's a "posi-lock" plunger that's supposed to lock the towers in the up position. With enough grit in the mechanism, this plunger will not be adequate for this task. All it does is prevent the towers from going back over the detent to the "down" side, and there's enough slop that the towers could conceivably get knocked back by a barricade and stuck at half-mast if there's sand in the hinge.Maybe they're good enough to do work out to 100, and maybe they're imprecise in ways that don't really affect POI that much, but I think you'd have to baby them to get repeatable performance out of them.
>>62144247It's better to get the sub 900 dollar urgi upper that 9 hole reviews said is equally ngmi in performance.
>>62146508Just do it anon, even if you don't like it someone will buy it secondhand for basically full price. If you lose more than like 200 bucks flipping an ACOG you're doing it wrong.
