I need to get a chronograph. Can't easily find 13.7 data online. My friends who I was using broke. And the only thing I have velocity for out of my 13.7 is the PSA 77gr with the inhouse (now Hornady OEM'd) bullet. >>62657071Been using their protein mix in a jug and creatine. It's been good for me.
>>62657078Yeah I gained about 17 pounds so far. I'm probably also getting diabetes from all the sugar, but who cares.

Hey, so I just mounted this Aimpoint T-2 on a Scalarworks riser on my Colt 6940. It's pretty awesome. I thought some rail covers would be nice, but I'm not sure what to get. Or should I just get some sort of foregrip?I already know that I need to get rid of the bullet button. I'm a refugee from California. I don't live there anymore, and I already own some 30 round windowed PMAGs now.Anyway, I would appreciate any of (You)r suggestions.
>>62657483I suggest you go back
>>62657531If you're trying to imply that I'm some liberal reddit dumbass, I've never been. My dad raised me right and I got out of California when I could.Now how about we be nice and you give me some constructive feedback?
>>62657483Ergo cover maybe
>>62657551I looked it up, is there a specific one you might suggest?
>>62657568The minimalist ladder cover
>>62657570Yeah, that would be cool, hmmm... could try thumb-over-bore meme with the sight like that.
>>62657483>>62657548Yah but you talk like one >Sling and light >Aluminum brownells mags >Belt with two mag pouches >IFAK>Cases of ammo Shoot your rifle and figure out ergos from practice
>>62656741don't throw river rocks in the fire bud
>>62657483Just grip it
>>62657599Thank you for the suggestions, I have lots of PMC X-TAC 5.56, but I do not have a decent first-aid kit. Maybe I could mount one of my modded Surefire 6Ps to it.>>62657626muh aeshetics. Would love that barrel length with a suppressor on it though
>>62657618River rocks maybe 200000 years ago
>>62657531I know you were just being a prick, but I actually have some pretty cool pre-assault weapons ban stuff that I saved from California...

>>62657788>Post em.alright here's a really rare variant>What region did you escape to?somewhere with actual freedoms. can carry easily
>>62656741If anyone remembers, I'm the gay bottom who built their own AR. The guy I've recently started dating is a big AK guy/zigger larper. Is this going to work out?
>>62657865Probably not, but nobody cares anyways. Do us a favor and make it a non-firearms related murder suicide
>>62656815Bawww did nobody thank you for your service today? Sack up faggot.
>>62657483VFGs can make sense on short guns and even though yours isn't short it does have a really short hand guard so idk maybe. Pretty much every competition shooter and everyone who does a lot of a shooting doesn't use a VFG.
>>62656805I don’t give a shit about SCRs so do whatever you want with it. It’s not like you’re bubba-ing a rare antique or something.
>>62657865Not entirely sure what you having cum farts has to do with ARs but at least you're not an AK user. Jesus Christ.
>>62657903If I didn't mention I was gay, you would've gone "oh my god a female AR owner.".
>>62657887The only murder will be you when the race war happens.
>>62657920No, I would have assumed you were a fag/tranny
>>62656805Is there any way to tune the buffer system on the SCR? The integral suppressor is neat but I have a feeling a non-flowthrough could beat it up a little bit. Based on maintenance and proprietary parts alone IDK if I'd go this route unless I had to...
I listened to the book anon recommended while painting my garage. Decent. Certainly some applicable parts in it. Unlikely I'll actually change anything but yeah
>>62657930It wouldn't be a race war so much as a race riot with black, white, mestizo and Jewish perpetrators
>>62657483T2 good. Get a sling and a light if its a “fighting rifle.” Needs a can too. Post belt and gear.
>>62656815I always wondered what type of poor retarded person bought that stuff and now i know
>>62657483>I'm a refugee from CaliforniaYou have to go back
>>62657958>T2 good.Yeah, I just got it the other day, it's sick.>Get a sling and a lightGood suggestion>Needs a can tooMaybe after I get one for my HK SP5 build. Would prefer a shorter barrel on it though>Post belt and gearNothing noteworthy. Right now I'm trying to get a good belt and holster to start concealed carrying.>>62657969see >>62657548
>>62657109>maltodextrinenjoy your diabetus
>>62657994different species of human but they are human
>>62657948fair enough, respect for actually listening to it. i thought you bolty paint job came out well by the way
>>62658006OK close enough. belts are tricky and down to personal preference. I usually pick up a trayvax cinch every day but the bfg small cobra buckle belts are nice too. Some people on here suggest the magpul belts but i think they are way too big and shitty. Tier 1 makes the best holsters but t-rex holsters are also very good and they may work better for you depending. The AWS SMU is a good shooting belt if you need one of those. surefire m6xx df is a good light to get. bfg vickers sling is the sling you want.
>>62658020thanks for the advice, but >>62658006 answered for me (he wasn't wrong)my dad knows what belt and holster to get me, he wears Tier 1. I will look up the rest of what you mentioned after I take a nap
>>62658010Thanks and thanks for the suggestion. I may give it a second listen sometime. The end of it about self sabotage and perfectionism was pretty spot on I must say
>>62658088what book?
My friend wants to buy his first AR but has been paralyzed by indecision for months. He wants to spend $1k-1500 “all in” for a rifle, case of ammo and ten mags. What complete rifle should he be looking at for $600-900?
>>62658164tell him to save more money
>>62658181One must imagine Sisyphus happy...
>>62658164wait for the counts synagogue of savings Halloween sale near the end of the month and get a geissele super duty blem complete rifle for $1k. $80 for 10 pmags, $400 for a case of 5.56. Total $1,480 (not including tax, transfer, tip & shipping). Other items to start budgeting for:magpul buis pro $150sniggers sling on sale $45surefire m600df $300an optic $500-$5000
>>62657942Nah, I don't think there is a way to tune the buffer unless you are going into the recoil tube and manually lopping coils off the spring or something. The only way to do it would be with an adjustable gas block, since even something like a bootleg BCG wouldn't work due to the proprietary bolt carrier. That said, I've been browsing Practiscore recently and the itch to go back to matches is there. Problem is, I live in California, so it seems the SCR is my only option if I want to be changing magazines and out in public.
>>62656791>You have to pick a muzzle device>no you can't pick that
>>62658229I wish Billdo would offer some fucking muzzle devices for shit people actually want. Like Surefire or Keymo.
>>62658234unsubscribe
>>62657483Agree with all of the above, prioritize that. Grips are really just salt to taste. I prefer the KAC broomhandle but the attachment method is notably dated and requires you to rip off everything on the bottom rail if you want to take it off for storage. Tango down has a nice QD foregrip.
>>62658229Thanks. That would be a great option. He loved shooting my CAR816 factory sbr with RC2 but that’s over his budget and I doubt he wants to deal with the NFA at this stage. A decent quality 16” rifle is what he needs.

Bros I think... I think it's perfect.There's nothing left that I want to change.I think I've achieved the perfect civilian AR15.I suppose a 14.5" barrel would make the ACOG BDC slightly more accurate but I don't think it's worth getting 1.5" cut off and it's gonna take me a long time to shoot this CHF CL barrel out so, I guess it's done.

>>62659095The only issue is mounting accessories is a pain in the ass so once you have them where you want, you'll just want to leave them there.

I stripped one of my SCAR's receiver screws, was going to switch it out with a mototech one. Should I take it to a gunsmith or do they just use a screw extractor and I should try to do it myself.

Shot both my uppers with the can this weekend. I'm almost entirely certain now that piston uppers are a meme unless you're doing a ton of full auto or extremely high volume of fire courses.>16" 516 piston upper.Reduced gas setting resulted in two bolt over brass malfunctions with green tip. Standard gas setting ran without issue. Can must have too little back pressure to make the gun run reliably on the 'suppressor' setting.>16" DI mid gas upper.Ran reliably, possibly breathed very slightly more gas but I haven't even done RTV mod or adjustable block and it was indoors so not a problem. Upper maybe got dirtier? I haven't cleaned it in over a year anyway so idk. Didn't impede function, don't care.
>>62659487Idk but they did at least one thing right because when chang and Walmart copied their most famous design everyone bought em
>>62659464Hey A2 do you know how much PSA finishes FN barrels they use in some of their """premium""" uppers, i.e. are they chambering and drilling the gas port or do they come finished? I have read on their forums they come finished, but it could be saving face. I like disassembly and got one on sale a while back, took it apart and it was fine. I gauged it and all, including retorquing the barrel nut. Is there something I should look out for or I might've missed that they're known to fuck up? Does it make mustard gas at a certain round count? Or if I'm fine now I got lucky?
>>62659480Damn, embarrassing
>>62659516I’m not saying they are bad, that would be a lie.
>>62659510Unfortunately yes

>>62659532………n-noo. Shut up.
>>6265947799% of people haven't been to the range this month. About the same haven't been in 6 months.It's a consumer hobby. Guys who own a gun and shoot it all the time are usually into weird shit like bullseye pistol or silhouette. I'm glad retards are buying racks of AKs and ARs but people who train are the extreme minority. That's why class sizes for nationally known instructors are 12-24 people at best.
>>62659541I did. Don't have pics but the chamber looks fine, no rings or nothin. So I'm guessing by that answer you are implying they chamber the barrels, so the threads, and gas ports too?
>>62659541More than 1 picture of an AR trigger, like he asked for, would be nice at least. It shouldnt be hard to find one right? Cause it happens all the time and you're definitely not full of shit, right?

>>62659605he's getting divorced man
>>62659597I don't even understand how pic related happened. Is that a piece of the barrel that was pushed into the gas port? It looks like a massive burr of material that, had it been there when drilling the gas port, not only would have been visually obvious but also made installing the gas block impossible
>>62659572You misunderstand, you are embarrassing yourself the end

>>62659636BendgateDo not search>>62659628Presumably its a piece of the barrel that got blown back into the gasblock after the first shot.>>62659641Sorry do you have n+1 photos to back that up?>>62659550>>62659613FN sells them profiled chambered blanksPSA drills ports, installs extensions and threads.>Visually obviousPSA employees simply not care
Where did gay2 go
>>62659656Oh there he is >>62659655
>>62659655Odd workflow. You'd think if Fn was gonna chamber them they would also pay them to do the far easier and quicker jobs of drilling port, threading, and putting on da extension. Where did you find that info because I really can't find SHIT online
>>62659597>1/1 failure rateSounds like PEBCAK because it works on my computer.
>>62659655>>62659541how would they get chatter in the chamber if they're not the ones who chamber it?
>>62659655>have n+1 photos to back that up?Yeah let me Google them and save some off Reddit like you do
>>62659679Chambering has to be done pre-chrome>>62659689They are the ones who dont lapp it. Most chrome starts absolutely gross and needs to be lapped down smooth for consistency, accuracy and longevity.>>62659681Sorry I dont have any photos of it working
>>62659695So the chatter is from the chromelining from FN itself? How does the chromelining process work in that sense, I know there are a few methods and I'm familiar with none of them.
>>62659597Love me 11.5” CAR816
>FN builds a shitty barrel >sells it to PSA>THIS IS PSA's FAULT your mind on trip fags
>>62659597>The benefits of piston are entirely a short barrel concernDo you think it's worth having the barrel on my 516 upper chopped to 10.5-12.5"? I was concerned that the port size on the barrel and piston assembly was really intended for the barrel length it came from and that it wouldn't run right if I got it chopped. I've never seen specs for the factory 516 10.5 vs 16" ports.
>>62659720When you chrome a barrel you deliberately oversize the bore by a given measurement. Then add back that measurement + a bit extra worth of chrome. You then need to lapp the chrome back down to your desired dimensions and surface finish. Chattered ringing fucked up surface finish comes from people not giving enough shits/time about the surface finish and rushing the process.Some mfgs throw around "FN DOUBLE CHROME" or "M249 CHROME" or "THICK LINING" which denotes they have moved that chrome thickness beyond the milspec minimums for the m4 platform. This can only be done by the barrel OEM who is hammer forging it since the mandrel for the forging will decide that dimension.Heres a cool industry article about the honing of non chromed barrels on machineshttps://www.mmsonline.com/articles/honing-system-eliminates-a-gun-barrel-lapping-operation>>62659795Id just sell it desu. Not a big 516 fan.If youre dying to keep it, you can cut it and the can will make up for a lot of that missing gas. Worst case you have to have the port drilled slightly.
>>62659841>You then need to lapp the chrome back down to your desired dimensionsboresnake keeps winning
>>62659866Careful bro if you use those cotton patches you might carefully lap away chrome!
>>62659871Copper impregnated cotton infused with hopped #9 is one of the hardest metals of all time, even harder then diamonds
>>62659841fyi it's just lap in the present tense dude, only two p's for lapped or lapping but I just lap a barrel, not lapp. I have seen that article but I will reread it, thanks
>>62659914ur mom lapps my balls
>>62659742>PSA buys rejects at a discounted rate>Sells them to morons>Wow how could FN do this?
>6" steel at 412y mix of 308 handloads + 7.62 ammo.More Mk14 exercise.
>>62659866Am I missing something? I exclusively use boresnake to clean my barrels. It's not harmful is it?
>>6265953414.5". Really fun to shoot!
>>62659841Okay A2 I read the article and nowhere does it describe the chromelining process which is what I'm unfamiliar with, I have chambered barrels before, obviously not chromelined. But based off your answer it sounds like if PSA advertises FN M249 NIGGERTHICK CHROME then It was FN themselves that caused the chatter or whatever by leaving EXTRA THICC buckets of chrome in there?
>>62659945>I exclusively use boresnake to clean my barrelsoh nonono
>>62659941Very cool. Well done anon.
>>62659952There's nfw copper damages a barrel. Copper projectiles don't ruin barrels at much higher pressure and velocity.
>>62659948How are you not getting that they are buying unlapped barrels?
>>62659945boresnakes are fine, just pull them out straight when there is no muzzle device or using on pistol. Just dont drag it over the barrel crown. that's it
>>62659982I understand that part, I wanted to know more about the actual chromelining, dickfuck
>>62659986>A PIECE OF CLOTHfaggot
>>62659976Yeah it's not like you have to change your barrels from intense use or anything. Keep shooting forever
>>62659982this doesn't contribute anything to the conversation, is it true you chased trannies
>>62659914Sorry I only fluently speak Chinese>>62659904Crash a wall made out of hoppes 9 cotton into a wall made out of dragonforce (the hardest metal)>>62659948>buckets of chrome in barrelThe point of that article is to show you pacnor ,a boutique barrel shop that supplies noveske is lamenting manual lapping and trying to replace the manual hand lapping process with machines that lapp the barrels.PSA is not hand lapping barrels, nor running those machines at a low speed for a flawless finish. They are focusing on speed by running the piss out of the machines which is introducing chatter into their barrels.
>>62660014>running the piss out of the machines which is introducing chatter into their barrels.damn that sucks. Have you seen their behind the scenes stuff before?
>>62659976the difference is the hoppe's #9 combines with residual carbon in the bore to form a high intensity laping compound. 1 boresnaking is equivalent to over 1,000 cold bore shots
>>62660075*10^8
>>62660075Didn't SOTAR say something like that
>>62660023>damn that sucksIt is what it is. There is no free lunch on this shit, they need to save money somewhere. Other mfgs are guilty of it as well because it effects these rifles so little its easier for the mfg to just to RMA the random fucked up barrel once in a while.
>>62659945A retard started a shit storm by claiming that putting lube on a boresnake will destroy your barrel. What the retard doesn't comprehend is that causation != correlation and he's just looking at the damage done from a barrel that has been used.
>>62660092circling back to my original post, I didn't see anything strange like a hobgoblin in my gas port or rings of Saturn in my bore, and it's torqued to anon spec. Will I be kilt in the streetz anyway
>>62660092No one wants to trade their SF scout body for my stupid pro swivel body.Are the arisaka 18650 bodies ok? Doesn't look like they have the steel ring in the back like the SF does.
>>62659841>Not a big 516 fanWhy? I guess I can always just run it on the 'adverse conditions' port and get authentic carbine tier overgassing.I'm not exactly dying to keep it but I'm also not eager to build or buy another upper. I like having an upper set up for night shoots.
>>62660121I have an arisaka body it’s gtg
>>62660119Assuming youre happy with that gasport size and that extension install , yeah.>>62660121Steel ring shouldnt be a problem, I dont think its as critical with newer heads.>>62660135>Not dying to keep itThen id just sell it and buy a shorty upper you want vs making a project out of somethin you dont love.
>>62660173can't tell if the yeah was meant to mean "yeah you're good" or sarcastically meant "you're gonna die for sure"
>>62660194yeah
>>62660206many such cases on this fuck of an earth
>>62660075No it fucking doesn't. You can't even pull the snake into the crown with a flash hider even if it did.Pseud bullshit.
>>62660238Who are you arguing with?
>>62660173The real problem is I can't decide what upper to buy to replace it and I'm feeling increasingly religious about 12.5" being the correct 5.56 SBR barrel length.What would you recc for an 11.5-12.5" upper to run with a full length can?
>>62660244Anyone dumb enough to think boresnakes damage a barrel.
>>62660253oh. okay. Go off queen
