Happy caturday anons
>Used both songsNice. TYFYS
I should submit my ugly ass gun for the collage
>>64868402Start by posting it here
Oh shit I made it into the collage!
In place of or in addition to their regular menu?
>>64868568In place of. That’s all they’re serving tonight. Prettt gay. I’m up to 180 dollars now but I also need to put gas in my car and wash it. So I need to make another 40 by noon. I figure 160 with tax plus tip if she gets the wine.
>>64868577$10 for wine? Don’t get your bitch sutter home cmon man.
>>64868577Broke dating sounds horrible
>>64868580No it’s 25 for the wine pairing at the restaurant. The meal is 125 for both of us 4 courses. I don’t drink. She doesn’t drink much. I’m saying if she decides to get the wine pairing it’ll be like 190 with tax and tip. And then if I want to get any alcohol or snacks for her on the way home I need some extra cash too. I would’ve been totally fine if they had their normal menu. >>64868584Yeah I don’t get paid from my new job until next week. Ar-15
>>64868375
>>64868630Brutus
>>64868353I want to bid on this, does anybody see anything wrong with it (other than that it's a KAC): https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1156420386
>>64868353TYFYS
>>64868737Yeah I see a couple things wrong with it
>>64868577>>64868594Good luck out there. I have to work my 10 hour restaurant job today so might kms on the dining room floor like the mayor in the faces of death video
>>64868745Im gonna need it. I’m only at 195 and I haven’t gotten an order in a half an hour. Shit is super gay. I need at least 5 hours to go home and clean, give myself a haircut etc. if I don’t make it in the next hour it’s ogre. Fucking woke up at 3am thinking I’d be fine too but I guess people are being stingy.
>>64868749Not a lot of people ordering out when they’re all going out to dinner.Can’t you just put it on a credit card?
>>64868749It's Saturday morning people aren't up yet how are they going to order food?
>>64868814I'm up.
>>64868737There is what looks like a vertical crack above one of the trigger pins, is that a concern?
>>64868815My little soldier is up, if you know what I mean haha. Maybe you can earn that $10 a different way haha. Boing!
>>64868353my rifle got in there twice! fuck yeah!
I know there's at least one S5 G36 clone owner ITTs. Didn't get an answer last thread:How do you guys like your S5? How many rnds have you put through it? How is the reliability? Does the gun seem durable? I'm seriously considering one. I would buy an original G36 optic to throw on it in a heart beat.
>>64868834This nigga leaves me out constantly but puts somebody else in twice. Make it make sense.
>>64868849thats wastebins MOlil bro probably got picked last for dodgeball a few too many times
>>64868849sorry lil bro we needed room for my 5th AR build
>>64868891kek I only have 2 rifles in today's collage, but not kidding I have 7 firearms in the one from yesterday.
>>64868814People usually order a lot on Saturday morning. McDonald’s, coffee, islop etc. anyway her mom is cock blocking me by staying at her place to watch her kid so now she’s expected to come home after dinner instead of coming back to my place to watch a movie.
>>64868897>7 firearms in the oneI kneel
>>64868928Guess your car is going to smell like sex tomorrow.
WTB ISO old discontinued Guntec AR15 slab slick side AR upper, no forward assist, no shell deflector, but with port door provision. Also does anyone have one of those dedicated 9mm blowback AR uppers? Does a normal AR15 BCG just slide in? Would all it take is the gas tube hole drilled and the ejection port enlarged for it to function as an AR15 upper?>>64868375You'll never leave
>>64868928>to watch her kidOh, you're the Amanda Bynes loving guy. Now it all makes sense
>>64868353>my rifle is in the collage even though I haven't posted here in 3 yearskek happy valentine's day /arg/

Would all it take is the gas tube hole drilled and the ejection port enlarged for it to functionThose aren't questions, they're a summary of what you're planning to do with an AR9 upper. Kek>>64868975But you had continued being my foil in the years since, happy SVD!
>>64869073Are they ranked, top row best, last row worst?
>>64869073>emo postthat wasnt me the pain is too much this morning for me to even post about

>>64869083Nah mine would definitely be up top if that were true.
>>64868992Why not share a recent photo, fatass?
javascript:quote('64867377');So far no major complaints. I have about 1500 rounds through it since getting mine in November. I got mine fully built from S5 rather than trusting my dumb ass to try an assemble from a kit and receiver. The first 50 rounds or so were the only time I have had any issues so far with failures to feed on a new magazine. I was shooting 5 rounds per mag because I was told ahead of time to expect issues during break in. Could have been the gun could have been mag springs but I haven't had any technical issues since. accuracy has been average? I haven't taken it to a long range so I can only measure based on shooting at 25 yards but so far I think the gun is probably more accurate than I am as a shooter. I don't have any durability concerns so far but being a polymer gun I also dont have any plans to drop it 6 feet onto concrete or anything like that.Overall as a hobbyist looks cool kind of gun I am really liking it and might even take it innawoods a few times this year just to see how it feels compared to my other rifiles to lug around. Mainly the next thing for me to figure out is how to do a form 1 because I would like to SBR it for a proper stock and it would be my first supressor host. As has been stated though I am a dumb ass and so I am waiting for my friend whose family owns a gunshop help me with the process.
>>64869108shit negro, because I haven't really touched it in 3 years, my other build is a SWAT 4 clone upper. I have mostly focused on pistols since I turned 21
>>64868963Yeah well anyway now I only get to see her for 2 hours tonight and it’s back to texting for another week. it’s really unfair of her mom to do this last minute when we’ve had these plans for a long time. I think I’m going cancel on her.
>>64868408I am not proud of it
>>64869120>clone >gets the most important part wrong
>>64868323Weird request but okay >>64868952>>64869073I have never seen more "this is a Google question" ass posts on 4chan before than wuggyposts. Saddest shit is seeing him and A2 interact here as if they can't just text each other

>>64869212Daily reminder
>>64868686
Three shits before noon (with my AR-15 pattern rifle). First was solid, second was watery, third was also watery
>>64869365Normal day for me
>>64869365I woke up about to shit the bed and had to wait for the bathroom to open up for about an hour.I was preparing to put a trash bag into a bucket I had to shit so bad.Closest I've come to crapping myself in years.
>>64869291>NTA but I take it you mean the roll marks for Colt's Manufacturing?the barrel length retardo
>>64869448Entire thing is non-NFA so that's not a valid critique
>>64868584>LarueRemember his unforgivable crime.Nevar 4gt!
>>64869291>aren't a competitionOk well that's basically not true because you put your friends first every time and in others they've been referred to as the high council. So if anything they're a competition for your friendship.
>>64869465barrel length of easily accomplishable without involving the NFA and 3-position frt's exist so there's really no excuse
>>64869511Somebody is mad he isn't on the high council
>>64869511PB's taste is cheap and every rifle in the collage is either dull or contrived. there is no need to be upset
>>64869569Sour grapes ass nigga
>>64869569This is next level jaded. There are all types of rifles in there so you pretty much just don't like ars if you can't find one you like in there.
>>64869569Seethe harder, nigger.
She’s really pissing me off. I’m an inch away from telling her I’m staying home.
>>64869607They like to get overdramatic around valentines, it's a shit test, don't fall for it. ignore it and treat her like a princess, anon, you don't want to fuck this up and be stuck hunting Costcos for shotgun n saddle 55gfs in 20 years.
from what ive seen a suppressor is not much better at reducing flash than an a2 flash hider, any thoughts on this?im thinking the cost of a can and muzzle device plus the effort to improve gassing might not be worth it if the a2 is finefor context im thinking about this for a night vision setup
>>64869619Idk man I’m so over it today I don’t even know if I can be nice to he. Been up since 3 working my ass off delivering for 8 hours after carrying mail for 50 hours last week and she’s just been talking about family drama and being kinda rude. For what so I can spend 200 bucks and go home alone? Sorry for off topic you guys are my only friends
>>64869654rude how
>>64869622Then you will quickly realize a2 is inadequate
>>64869656I assured her I wouldn’t let the family drama ruin our night and we would still have a great time. She ignored that text for 2 hours then when I asked if she’s getting ready soon she said “yep that’s the plan lol”
>>64869622A2 is borderline useless on short barrels
>>64869674ive got a 16" atmim considering either another 16 with a2 or a 14.5" with a surefire mini2
>>64869619>>64869607>>64869654You guys have to actually date women before you become serious. Like get to know them and shit. If you're in your early 20s who cares but as you approach your 30s you need be a bit more pragmatic about your romantic discernment. You need to actually like the person on like a fundamental level if you want to get serious with them
>>64869622Three prong or good flash can night be a better compromise Webm is the worst example but I will post others to give you a range of performance once can get with the A2 on short barrels with various ammos. Consider that longer barrels will perform better and 10.5 5.56 is flashy even under best circumstances
>>64869732>>64869711
>>64869622>any thoughts on this?depend on the can, some work better than others at night, as for flash hider the bird cage won't do shit even with 20" barrels
>>64869734>>64869711Honestly with 16" should be a non issue bro, A2 should be fine
>>64869719>You guys have to actually date women before you become serious. Like get to know them and shit.Disclaimer: Even if you get to know them, and they seem like promising romantic partners, don't fuck your female coworkers.That's a quick and easy way to fuck up both your love life and your professional career.Don't ask me how I found that out.
>>64869739This is true but if we're talking potential soulmates or a NON career job, that is like a fucking Summer gig, part time job, or like retail, then go for it but only an EXTRA high bar or just like MASSIVE honkers on a rail thin body something retarded
look women discussions is like talking about ak variants in ar15 general, ok every now and then around 11pm EST to 6am EST, but we have to pretend its about ar15 during these hours.my AR15 i would cheat on with my coworker AR15 in a heartbeat but i might feel guilty afterwards because i kind of like my AR15 but not enough to SBR and get government list saying we are beholden to eachother in a type of marriage sense. i really enjoy shooting my AR15 currently but she wasnt my first choice and has some issues that i need to hammer out of the reciever and fix up some scuffs and dings on the anodizing but i do enjoy spending time at the range with it.
>>64869828Your AR15 is schizo and can't be fixed
>>64869856i know but i feel bad about how i treated it when i first bought it and had great times with it and think it deserves to be a safe queen once i polish it
>>64869828>wasn't my first choiceoh yeah this is definitely a recipe for a long lasting rifle that won't start keyholing someone off tinder in a few months
>>64869869that ar15 was relegated to the back of my safe for 6 months before i wanted to shoot it again, its kind of a NEET rifle and not in the "omg i need a shut in loser neet femcel gf" kind of way but an actual alcoholic 1 friended no hobbies just wants to come over and lounge together browsing /arg/ and playing vidya kind of way. like a sad puppy... that you shoot loads through the muzzle of your suppressed mini recce
I added the light. (and folded the gay bipod that ruffled some of you). Looking into canted red dot.
>>64869932now get a sling and good mags and take off the scope shade and a different vfg and a flash hider not a brake and really everything else now that im looking closer
>>64869932gr8 b8 m8
>>64869883I get it anon we all gave beater uppers but you're not supposed to invest any serious accessories on it. A rifle you keep in the range roster but you wouldn't take it to TUSC. Sounds like your ar15 got attached
>>64869964or maybe i did...? idk we'll see how it pans out
>>64869945brake came stock with the gun. Scope shade is off. I like this vfg. Gotta look into the sling. Not sure if 1 or 2-point, have no experience with either, but for 2-point I'd need to get an additional mount point.
Do you have to be in ashcord to make it into the high council?
>>64870007yes but you are not going to like what you have to do
>>648700002 point never 1 point get a mlok or top rail picatinny 45 degree mount like the magpul ones
Decided to go on the date so I don’t end up like boomerslop mark. I’ll let you know how it goes. I’m mogging rn too she better like it
>>64870020itsnot worth it vro stick to self improvement on your ar15 drills

>>64870143Kinda silly desu
>>64870143Just do a 14.5 a2 carbine so you don’t have to sbr it. That’s my plan for a beater trunk gun whatever.

>>64869212this but unironically
Please help. My shoulder hurts firing this thing for hours. Make fun of me, whatever. What kind of pad should I get for this kind of stock. It's a H&R a2 carbine.
>>64870307masen pad
>>64870307springco enhanced red spring (part number 25004) and an H2 buffer. that will tame the recoil. dont swap the stock, itll ruin the aestheics. you can also file down the pointy parts of the stock a little bit.
>>64870307I have a UTG pad (I think) and it's cool because you don't need to zip tie it on. I don't think you can get them anymore though, so just get a masen pad.
Considering signing up for a practical rifle comp in my region.> For this match, you will be REQUIRED to attend, and successfully complete a Practical Rifle safety check. Contact the Match Director to arrange a time.Have you guys had to do a "safety check" before signing up for comps/classes? What does it entail? Just making sure I'm not a nutcase or what?
>>64870134>Xm16e1 vs M16a1There was a certain point where they were identical: field armourers would replace barrels with chrome lined ones and scratch "M16A1" over the original roll mark. In the opposite end of extremes, the earliest production XM16E1 had a completely "slab sided" lower receiver with a bolt assist. The unit pictured here is obviously commemorative [would have been presented to JFK] but it has a production serial of 50,000 >Deviating already with colorWell, yeah– anything but XM Grey is going to look hideous though not as bad as this chrome plating, kek >>64869511There's nothing wrong with some recognition of the support and encouragement that anon has given me>>64869526>easily accomplishable without involving the NFASo that would either be a "pistol brace" which is worse than a 16" barrel or a pin and welded muzzle device that isn't cloon correct>3-position frt's existI suppose>>64870007The High Council and House of Lords are defunct due to the lack of active membership>>64870307Start wearing some actual kit if a winter jacket isn't practical
>>64870405I didn't say there was anything wrong with giving them some recognition, if anything it's inspiring me to be more supportive and helpful in /arg/ that one day I might see my rifles in the top row.
>>64870413or you might never see your rifle on there because everyone hates you and wants you to die even though you didnt do anything to anyone and it hurts so bad and they know it but they keep hurting you anyway because they like doing that and want to see you suffer over and over again while you watch everyone else having fun and being a part of a group but you can never be one of them

>>64868353So I went to the range today on my first newly built rifle, and been giving light primer strikes seemly at random. Initially when they tested to zero the irons I would also get light primer strikes but I figured maybe it was too much oil on the firing pin, but this time, I ran dry. But still getting light primer strikes... Any reason to why?
>>64869581they all either look like they were built for the approval of strangers or trying extremely hard not to look like they were, geisslop consumer nigger zoomer. Have a thought>>64870307Missouri tactical supply
>>64871174>built for the approval of me specifically kill yourself right now
>>64870177But why even take the risk for 3 inches of barrel length?
>>64871184A 10.3” barrel with a2 fh looks like an 11.5” which with no threads is close to 12.5” which can be rounded up with a md to 13.7” which is close to 14.5” and that with a P&W A2 is 16” so most people don’t know barrel lengths by heart.
>>64871184Because they’re edge lords. There’s no practical difference between a 14.5 carry handle and shorter. Except your muzzle velocity and effectiveness goes down. Unless you’ve got it suppressed and kitted out or you’re trying to hide it under clothing there’s no point in going shorter.
>>64870540M16A-Anon checking in. I still lurk and post in these threads. I generally just don't post pics or attention-whore.

>>64871174Unhinged and not in the based way.
Anyone got any links to deals with ammo and mags? I want to get 10 more magazines, but can't ever justify buying just magazines, because there's usually a "buy 1,000 rounds and get 10 free magazines" deals floating around.
>>64871672Because the secret is out and everybody wants one
>>64870405Fair enough kek. There longer you stare at the gold, the more it grows on you. I think we’ll build it as an xm16e1 (3 prong, etc.) and call it good. The black anodizing is kind of nice but we could always just tigerstripe paint it.
>>64871078Looks like you have a SOCOM barrel so your recoil buffer might not be heavy enough [4.6oz is the mil spec] to counter bolt carrier bounce. If you have a "super safety" then it might not be gassed well enough to compensate for the additional friction >>64871316>M16A-AnonThe one with the Colt 4x?>>64871727>tigerstripe paintDuet

>>64872134Hmmm yeah this Picasso build convinced me to get a ctr and bottom rail panel for my urgi. Thank you for your vision and taste
>>64872145I hope you like it bb! The CTR/A2 combo is goated. The rail just feels nice in my hands and is lower profile than most handstops but bigger than a mlok cover
>>64872081Gets me a start on inspiration, thanks. Current focus will be just getting it assembled. More to come. >hbrWatch your acetaminophen there.
>>64871543>She also makes more money than meSo she put work over her family (kid) and her boss over you. Good job, anon. You put yourself last.

>>64872175Jesus Christ bro she is blue collar and makes like 5 dollars an hour more than me. I will make more than her in a couple of years. Not everything is a blackpill.
>>64872254I mean it kind of is black pill unless you know you aren’t marrying her or committing to her, then it’s based.
>>64872259Whatever you say dude no wonder you can’t get a girl
>>64872273I am picking my girl up in like 5 minutes to go see a pig my sister got for her farm lol.

>>64872279Yes, but I would never date a single mother. In an AR15 sort of way.
tired of my FRT not farting correctly. put my MBT back in.
>>64872332>FRT not farting correctlyMany such cases!
>>64872365Never happened to me. Skill issue.
>>64871804>>M16A-Anon>The one with the Colt 4x?No, the original military surplus Colt M16A1 with the prehistoric AimPoint sight.
>>64872449Apart from the PMAG, it looks pretty good! Very nice, Pol bro>>64872390Fair
>>64872498>>64872449I honestly like the pmag. It adds a little Laurel/yanny to the build.
>>64872577checked
>>64872226>sweating intensifies
>>64872577I've got a bunch of various metal mags for this thing too.This rifle has a weirdly tight magazine well (don't know if it's normal for M16A1s) and metal mags loaded to full capacity tend to be slightly too fat for the magwell.Metal mags generally require some force to get in and out of this rifle.The Pmags don't have this issue, so I usually run Pmags for purely practical reasons.
First time trying to mount an LPVO. What the fuck is this? Are they supposed to be like this? I confirmed that I got both an 30mm scope tube and mount rings. I followed this video pretty much exactly, using a torque driver and bubble levels and all that shit, criss cross pattern etc.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG728Xqn8Z8Did I just get a shit mount (vortex Sport Cantilever 30mm)?Should have just gotten a fucking ACOG
>>64872857Were you visually confirming that everything was equal as your were criss crossing the screws?
>>64872861I was checking the bubble level and making sure it didn't move. I tightened them about half way then applied the final torque (basically turning them until the driver clicked) in a criss cross pattern.
>>64872761Neat but it doesn't say what loads they were shooting
>>64872857Just be more careful if it bothers you.
>>64872870I recoil like that when I shoot my hand loads.
>>64872918The girl at burger king was flirting so hard I almost recoiled in my pants.
>>64872313Never backordered from them before, but have had good luck with everything I purchased from them, probably fine if you can't find it elsewhere.
>>64872857That looks like a pretty big gap, is it even on both sides? Usually I have a gap, but it's like one millimeter or so.
>>64872935>>64872861It's not even on both sides so I think I just fucked it up and need to redo it again. Assuming I used a torque driver and didn't tighten it past 18lb I don't have to worry about having fucked up my scope right?
>>64872944>18lbNot sure what preload calculation you're using but that's not nearly enough, fampai
>>64872959The scope ring literally says 18 in-bs
>>64872969What's an inch-bullshit
>>64868353Why is only one upside down
>>64872971Haha yeah, I forgot a letter, you got me hahaha
>>64872607
>>64872980How would you feel if you didn't have breakfast this morning?
>>64872944Yeah, just take it apart and go slow, tighten cross thread pattern, like a few turns at a time, check after each one and make sure it's even on both sides. Takes some patience, but you'll get it. Don't listen to this >>64872959 retard, tighten it down to the spec it says on the mount.
>>64872986I don't feel anything ever
>>64872975It was 4:00 AM and I had a fever
>>64872997A likely excuse.
>>64872993>18lbs of preload is enough
I just want to ask what the best buffer is for my 11.5” carbine because I’m afraid of getting some weird ejection issues and having to troubleshoot those so id really prefer to just get the right one the first time but I see a lot of weights and I don’t want to damage anything by starting with the wrong weight like that’s kind of the same issue with the weird ejection issues so I don’t want that but I’m also curious about the right buffer tube because I know an a5 won’t fit in a carbine tube so then you hit the same issues thing again and I just really want to know so like do they all screw in and take the same stock or do I have to match my buffer weight with the stock
>>64873014Dumb nigger it's inch pounds, not "lbs".It's the spec printed on his fucking mount and it's very typical.Here's he Badger Ordnance C1 mount instructions, also 15-18 inch pounds. Kys.
>>64873036just get an h1
>>64873036How about you shoot it first before you start diagnosing problems you may or may not have?
>>64873036
>>64873044But the chart in >>64873050 >>64873050Does the figure in what will be compatible with each other and where does the a5 factor in is it closer to h3
>>64873042Oh huh that's crazy wow geez You're so smart
>>64873050>doesn’t account for God’s chosen length 12.5”
>>64873082i didnt read the other posts but if u did the slowly tighten one screw at a time so they all are evenly distributed then the mount QC must suck peepee, loosen the opposite side all the way and see if the ring tightens all the way down on that side to check for wrong sized ID
>>64873172You're not replying to the guy with the mount, you're replying to some other dipshit who either didn't know what he was talking about or was trying to get anon to fuck up his optic by over-tightening the rings on his mount.

Does anyone use an ultrasonic cleaner for small parts? Cleaning is a pain in the ass I just want to be able to throw my BCG and lower parts in
>>64873267Peppermint is the worst flavor. Not as bad as citrus. Cool mint hits that menthol note for me but I wish they made them in 9 or 11’s.>>64873299Yes, what do you wish to know?>>6487312812.5? Never heard of it.
>>64873314I have a friend who likes Cool mint the best, but it gives me a headache after a while, all of the flavors except Peppermint give me a headache. The worst flavors are the ones they have in California where they're not allowed to have flavors anymore... Tastes like shit.Cinnamon actually makes me angry, I got a can and realized I was being an asshole in traffic and getting in arguments with my girlfriend for no reason.
>>64873314Are they actually good for cleaning? Did some surface level research into it and the only concerns is that it strips oil so I'll need to reapply after. Also of course I won't drop my lower into it since I saw they destroy aluminum
>>64873299You don’t have to clean the lower.
>>64873299A lot of people use them for their BCG, but the lower parts? Usually I just wipe down the lower or if it looks like it really needs it, I'll hit it with brake parts cleaner and then re-apply oil where the disconnector and trigger contact each other and sometimes the trigger springs and push pins... Like 90% of the time cleaning is the BCG, breech/chamber, and the barrel.
>>64873172I can't believe I have to share the internet with people like you
>>64873328Yeah, on the quitting bend this weekend actually. Hoping I’m through the worst of zyn flu today. Otherwise I’ll have to quit next weekend. It’s great for nights out, but I’m over it.>>64873363Yeah they’re good. Simple green no bueno for aluminum. Most of your cleaning stuff can be thrown in no problem. Best if you get a cleaner with a built in heater. Just ensure dry (heat) and reoil anything that’s been wet.
>>64873363More info… I got the harbor freight one. It’s cleaned over 200 g3 magazines. Same goes for bcg’s.
>>64873235You, too
>>64873420Congrats, man, that's huge. I'm booze free since the beginning of the year, but don't see myself quitting nicotine any time soon.
Is there a genre of hentai where it's like a yaoi/Yuri fusion? Like one man and one woman? I know it's a little out there but surely it exists right if anyone knows a name

>>64873474Yeah wait til you get cancer to quit.

>>64873438yeah that's reverse trap+trap.
>>64873299Cleaning an AR is very easy. Get a Gucci BCG with a lithium coating and everything wipes off super easy if that is annoying you. Wipe down BCG clean the chamber and a few wipes through the barrel if you feel like it that's it.
>>64873542Don’t forget to use a course grit steel brush on the chamber. Don’t want to have carbon built up.
>>64873550One of these Dewey chamber cleaning rods was one of the best cleaning tool /invest/ments I made. Very effective.

I forgot about the captured takedown spring and almost shot it across state lines. Now I just need to chop down a brace
>>64873550>>64873567I just wipe my chamber down with a rag and oil and haven't had carbon buildup issues. I only shoot suppressed non flowthrough. I just cracked my rifle to check my chamber and damn I love the smell of burnt gunpowder :)

Little head scratcher for you guys... Pic rel on top, 16" BCM Mid Length with YHM T3 on it and was doing some testing with different buffer weights to dial it in.>carbine bufferBad ejection, like 1:15 at best, lots of gas to the face.>H3 bufferOkay-er ejection, around 2 with the suppressor, 2:30 no suppressor. Much less gas.>H1 bufferPerfect 3 ejection with suppressor. 3:30 without suppressor.Why would the ejection pattern be better with a H1 instead of the H3? I'm guessing maybe because it's a 16" Middy it has something to do with the dwell time and gas? Tested with 2 different mags and 2 different ammo types. At any rate I put the H3 in the pistol lower for the 10.5 and it functioned as expected.
>>64872927suppose I'll flip a coin before prices increase, thanks anon>>64874498mix of 16" middy and BCM overgassing. what buffer spring?
>>64874524>what buffer spring?Standard carbine spring with probably 2,000 rounds on it.

Anyone ever seen copper slag buildup like this in a suppressor?B&T PrintX Mini 556K. Round count is probably near 7000rns or so, mainly just basic M193 ammo. Vast majority shot from a 10.3" Rosco SOCOM barrel. A fair bit of FRT SS, but not abusive, mainly training 3-6 round bursts.Muzzle device is a YHM Kurz QD Phantom flash hider, mount is YHM Kurz Ti mount.It appears to be some sort of copper slag buildup? Not easy to remove at all. Adding substantial weight to the can and reducing blast chamber volume. Not ideal.>>64874498>>64874536>H3 2:00/2:30 can/nocan>H1 3:00/3:30 can/nocanYeah that obviously is confusing and doesn't make sense. Gas can do weird things. My best guess is the heavier buffer inertially slowing unlock somehow combined with the specific gas system length and port size and gas dynamics of the suppressor is actually resulting in a more "overgassed" condition with more carrier speed resulting in the ejection angle being at 2:00/2:30 while the H1 is unlocking a bit more quickly, venting more gas out the chamber/port area, so less gas is being utilized in the action thus less carrier velocity and a more "undergassed" ejection angle. What is confusing is that the behavior is being observed even without a can, so actually it can't have anything to do with can gas dynamics. My vote is it is the 16" middy which is like okay grandad circa 2005 gun show. Sell that lame upper. Heavy profile quad rail 16" middy like no thanks?

I make sure I’m extra flirty with the youngest hottest girl there and ignore her completely so she knows her place.
>>64874705There you have it. Youve deviated too far from the original design this Isa competition rifle where your getting copper slag in the suppressor an it’s reducing the blast chamber meaning more pressure internally on the buffer retainer pin that will fail next and then the pivot pin will seize after that only nothing but problems when going past the original design
>>64874705I’ve heard of deposits like this before. Supposedly something to do with the bullet engaging the rifling and throwing copper vapor/gas. What does the muzzle device look like when can is removes? Residue? What are you using for cleaning? >AlsoHe used my reflex commando picture on Reddit. Cute!

I've been on 4chan now for unironically 19 years. I've started posting on reddit more just in the past year because while they're obviously more fucking stupid writ large than most on 4chan, when you're looking for gen pop takes or info, there are indeed responses of value (barely) to be had on there. You on the other hand appear to check reddit 1st thing in the morning entirely unprompted?
>>64874899>I have been here for 2 decadesnot a brag and there is no amount of text that makes you less of a redditor, you even type like one so this isn't surprising and I tried doing you a favor deleting it but you love being reddit
>>64874907>>64874899btw the reason I found it was I googled copper slag to read more and his reddit post was the first result. Didn't even reverse image search this guy is a top tier redditor
>>64874899Can always hit it with copper cleaning solution but at risk of you seeing green residue from time to time. Still following details on Rhodie can. Eventually going to get something that’s nice for both a 14.5” and okay for a 20”. >rx01Can relate with the many projects. Sometimes gotta divest but at least dude got some use out of it.

>>64874705>Sell that lame upper. Heavy profile quad rail 16" middy like no thanks?It's literally a tank. I have the 10.5" build for if my /fitcore/ muscles are sore. Thanks for the feedback, though. I'm going to do more testing this weekend and try to get a video or two and report back.
>>64874935I was more talking about after youve unfucked it there. I mean if you soak it may help it release. Throw it in a Sonic cleaner with soliton afterwards, idc. Could also play dentist with picks. >rhodie 6I look forward hearing thoughts on it. You know I started looking and then gave up on the differences. Figured either it’s good, I spend a fortune on Allen engineering, or I cope with a bowers can.
>>64874956Solution, idk. This autocorrect is making things more thirdworld than usual.

>>64874966stop replying to yourself schizo.
>>64875031>simple maintenance jobPost pictures of your copper slag buildup and your soliton to the issue? Oh that is right, you don't have any suppressors or experience with this issue because you just blast dirt/trash for "fun" because the loud noises activate your monke neurons and you post on here not to discuss technical issues or builds or anything actually /arg/ related but to "socialize" because you're an aspie.

>>64875383It's copper so you can use brass picks. Brass is harder than copper but softer than anything the can is made of if you care about scratched. If you don't care I would skip that and use stainless steel dentist picks or surgical picks or any gunsmith set. But yeah I would start with brass tools and solvent. If it's completely welded then the only option is removing the material and that's also relatively simple especially since Wuggy has access to a vertical mill. If I had to do that I would try plunge cutting it to loosen it after being extra sure about depth using the knee and not the quill(?) stop collar idr the name for that thing.
They also make soft steel alloy and brass punches and chisels btw guys. There's always a million ways to nuke Israel
