That looks like a historical photograph but I haven't seen any documentation or official references. It supposedly dates back to September, 1967 which is believable because the subject is armed with an XM16E1 (Colt 603) judging by the "partial fence" lack of guard for the magazine release. There were already AR-15 updates for the M16A1 adoption by that time but supply line limits resulted in delays

>Opinions on handhelds
Go 640 if you can, otherwise 320 but really 640s are so cheap in current year. Manual objective lens focus a must. You should be looking 18-25mm for an objective lens diameter, any larger and its going to be escaping the PVS14 formfactor you want for a handheld. Replaceable batteries are ideal, built in rechargeable are a nogo, proprietary cells are concerning but not as bad as
>1k
Save more money desu
That buys you an "okay" 320 but nothing 640 in 2026.
RH25 V1 is a fantastic unit and can be had comfortably under 3k, ive seen some closer to 2k lately with the current year. The CV25 while more limited on mounts is a fantastic deal if you have someone with a sigshill account.
>Drones
Drones are team equipment, thermals are individual equipment. if your team is at the point where they can handle an additional spinning plate, drones are big. If not, keep buying thermals and keep training. Both are useful tools.

Gun to my head id probably rather have a thermal and nods for dealing with most things CONUS. Just being able to run laps around people in the darkness is yuge. Thermal pushes out that detection range well beyond the detection range of NV so you can kite NPC aggro radius like a poorly coded videogame.
>>65251180
>I can build drones for that price, no problem.
If you are building stabilized folding isr platforms for that much, go ahead and put me down for that. FPVs while cool are IMHO far less applicable to people innausa.
>Limited supplychain
>High skill bar to hop
>Large C2 footprint required for effective use
>Massive manpower footprint required for effective use
tbqh the effectiveness youre seeing in ukraine is the peak, its never going to be that again. They will be around, they will be accessible but if you are duking it out over 10m thick treeline in the flatlands you might have lost the plot as a AR15 owner in the US.

Adams arms cant make quality products to save their lives. They are in perpetual insolvency because of this and you will get no warranty support. Aside from that, shoehorned piston kits are kinda dogshit and way underbuilt to clear tiny noodle gastube tier holes. Dedicated piston platforms like a PWS, 416, etc are going to be so much nicer all other things being equal.

>just save and get a 640
Well it is what it is
>If you are building stabilized folding isr platforms for that much
PETG-CF is great for building the framework, and folding is a spring, a bearing, and notches for holding open and closed. That's not exactly an engineering marvel.
If we're putting 640 with 20mm objective plus battery to run it, plus controls to work it independently from the flight system, that's where it gets a bit cumbersome.
Most of the other parts you've talked about have been figured out for years.

Eh I dont really think so. TUSC is entirely blanks, MSW is airsoft with respawns. Not like youre being challenged from a marksmanship standpoint in any of them.

This included President Donald Trump's lead negotiator for an Iran peace deal, Steve Witkoff, as well as the Pentagon's top policy official, Elbridge Colby, and his deputy, Michael DiMino.

I guess team/squad leader or DMR/IAR gunner. I did train as an IAR gunner most of my time but I felt the training I received was kinda lackluster. So improving in those areas would be great.

I appreciate the slim sexy look of 16 inchers but I'm not looking to buy a super nice one before the ban kicks in and I don't think I can justify a 16" over my 11.5 other than to have a beater lying around to maybe give to someone.
>>65252706
They're cute but I don't know if if I've seen how they look on 11.5s. I kind of really wanted the Q Fix just because it had a Dragunov'y look to it but I'm not paying more than what I paid for my KAC/MARS combo for a bolt gun.

Hello friends, noguns adjacent here. My state (CO) is about to enact some bullshit where you cant purchase any semi automatic firearm with a detachable magazine without taking an 8 hour class/paying the state for a permit to do so. So obviously im not going to do that and ive been panic buying.

I understand that AR-15 Lowers are the only thing the government really considers a firearm and requires a background check for on the platform and i've been considering buying a 5 pack of lowers online to build while i wait for the feds to hopefully come in and PP slap our retarded state government. My question is- are all lowers made equal or are there nuances between sellers? I've been looking at gunbroker and there are alot of options to choose from. Is there a brand you suggest? Same for parts kits
>>
>>65253475
Most all lowers are mil spec if you want to get into FRT stuff or full auto then you need a specific shelf if you want quality if life stuff like ambidextrous or whatever you have to look for those. Billet is a meme. Some brands are dogshit (BCA) some brands are overpriced (KAC) some brands are just as good (Anderson) but for an LPK cmmg is kino.
>>
>>65253475
>all lowers made equal or are there nuances between sellers?
Generally speaking any genetic lower will work just fine.
Just avoid the plastic ones, and don't buy the cheapest bargain-bin crap you can find.

From an average shooter's perspective, a fancy high-grade Gucci-brand lower has zero practical advantages over a plain generic mil-spec lower that costs a quarter as much.

Haven't had a Poverty Pony lower in many years, but they used to commonly have marginally out of spec mag wells and safety detent holes. Nothing that made them unusable, just annoyances. They were going for $30-$50 at the time though, so how many fucks can be conjured to give.
>>
Can someone here give me a concise answer on 223 vs 556? I see arguments about it on xitter all the time. Am I gonna fuck my shit up by using 5.56 in a 2.23 upper?

Secondly, how is Luth AR's quality? I want a cheap 20" upper and they have some.

>>65254950

You should be fine as majority of barrels nowadays are chambered for both, even if one says 223 or the other says 556.

Nothing in particular. I hear often how 5.56 was built for a 20" barrel so I wanna see how it is. Also just want something different since most of my guns are 16". I am also considering buying an FN M16 upper but thats a bit pricier
>>
>>65254835
>marginally out of spec mag wells
This is normal and fully expected on actual military M16s and M4s, even with GI mags and fancy kraut steel mags.
The mags generally don't drop free out of actual military-issue rifles/carbines, even brand new ones. That includes aging new-old-stock M16A1s and A2s with 0 rounds through them, as well as first gen M4s with fixed carry handles and 3round burst triggers.
This leads me to believe that it's the premium brand ARs that have excessively loose and sloppy magazine wells, with Andersons actually sticking to the (crappy) military specs.

Nope. It's all normal. Every single other milsurp lower I've tried has been exactly the same.

Have you tied stuffing mags that are actually loaded into yours?
AR mags in general are pretty fucking flimsy, regardless of brand, they tend to expand sideways when they're loaded beyond half capacity.

>>65255182
Strange.... I've tried hundreds of mags in dozens of lowers.
Mags falling free is not the norm. Regardless if the mags are aluminum, steel, or plastic.
Regardless of the age and model of lower.
Might be that your lower is one of the few with an unusually loose magwell. Every single one I've personally fooled around with has been too tight.

The youtube algorithm has decided you are a moron with a short attention span, so it feeds you videos for morons with short attention spans.

A good place to start looking would be on the Small Arms Solutions channel, because he literally wrote the book on AR15 carbines.

It has nothing to do with the algorithm, although youtube's search engine priority might have something to do with it. If you want a "documentary" style essay video that doesn't have basic bitch information, you'll have stuff like Chris Bartocci and Forgotten Weapons, and everything else is shit. The thing is that as good as Bartocci is it's still put out as a sort of lecture/show and tell, and Forgotten Weapons hasn't done a "history of the AR carbine procurement" video, although he's done a fuck ton of individual segments. I'm trying to make something that is more long format like a documentary which covers a long period of time and some of the intricacies of the development and procurement of the early short guns that's something you can almost listen to like an audiobook if you want.
