>>65356677shit wrong pic
>>65356665>>65356667You’re not making it easy to decide guys
Post yfw I actually do it
>>65356677>get domed by the big cheeseYou should just end yourself at that point.
>>65356683>You should just end yourself at that point
>>65356671Why make fun of GT for getting a hair transplant? If I was balding, had money, and was freshly single I'd do it too
>>65356691
Hair transplants are gay as fuck and imagine being single past 35 holy fuck couldn't be me. If you haven't locked down a wife and produced offspring by then you're never gonna make it just exile yourself from society.
>>65356707>imagine being single past 35Me next year
>>65356707>t. psyop
>>6535670735yr old and above single men with shooting and/or fishing as main hobbies are prime dating pool as long as they're fit and not serial killersGT's collection alone is enough to seal the deal IMHO
>>65356682Take a shower?
>>65356724Now that's cope
>>65356733You don't like older guys? The fuck?
>>65356724t. has never actually interacted with a woman outside of a video game or primary school
>>653566817 is a better number than 5 so he winsThe 0-9 tier list goes like:3192075648So it's relatively close but he eeked it out
>>65356737I think you're misreading my post from your perspective rather than mine, GT is hot and owns pretty cool shit
>>65356745Zoomers are preemptively protesting their 30s.
>>65356745He has an awkwardly long horse face
>>65356752To each their own
>>65356739He also got 67 (ha ha) so maybe super duty is it
my fucking foreskin...
>>65356762How dare you larp as me
>>65356745GT is also an ex operator, incredibly rich, jacked and juicing and reasonably famous You and I, are none of these things. Don't kid yourself big dog. You're not that guy. I'm sorry.
I gave up on trying to restore my foregrip btw I just decided to be gay instead because metaphorically my barrel is bottoming for israel anyways so I have my gf peg my ar15s buffer tube every now and again Iykwim
>>65356707Id rather be single than force myself to settle. I've had many ex fiance. All BPD weirdos you'd be crazy to make babies with. Probably why I joined the US military and did fuck shit overseas instead- easier single.
>>65356776>I gave up on trying to restore my foregrip btwThat's good, it'll never be the real thing
>>65356691lol, what a fag
>went to my local range the other day>finish paying fees and end the day>see twenty-something newfag asking the shop owner something>do you have any optics?>shop owner looks bewildered>we dont have any in-stock sonny but if you searched online, you could order a red dot like a Holosun Aroit still surprises me that there are people who aren't terminally online. Those that don't shop for goods online. You'd be severely limiting yourself if you just relied on local stock.
>>65356824I make a point not to buy end tackle online and will overpay in shops just so I can butter up boomers for their (fishing) holes and general advice but yeah buying an optic in an lgs is pants on head
>>65356824My local range has been infected with DEI apparently they hired an illegal that can barely speak english as an RSO.
>>65356824It’s weird seeing younger guys who don’t know how to use the internet. I guess not all of them were raised on it
>>65356838They need him to translate for the other illegals that come in to shoot.
>>65356830Based realpolitikker
>>65356839I think the saddest ones are ones that were raised on social media on smartphones, but not the Internet at large or computers. They get all the worst aspects and none of the potential benefits
>>65356839ive met a few who are so adamant about only purchasing in-person. Stubborn, they go out of their way to only buy things if they can hold it in their hand and see it with their own eyes. There's people like that today I suppose. Its like my other buddy, who I had to convince Japan exists outside photos. Eventually we all ended up flying over for a vacation and only then was he convinced. Are they really that surface-level experience? Like, yes dude, you can buy and enjoy AR15 as an American citizen. They are not illegal.
>>65356845For real half the customers in there have no business being in the same room as a firearm in my experience.Those noguns kids probably wanted the advice of one of the guys at the counter, further inflating the ago of a fat gunstore counter guy that knows every model of pistol Khar Arms ever produced(useless shit)
>>65356773That's what makes him attractive
>>65356857Oh yeah I didn’t even think about how people defer to them for advice. Would you expect the guy stocking at walmart to know fuck all about anything? No but at gun stores people think you need to be an expert to work there. Like you need credentials. I get why they all do a ladies night now.
I don't even understand why someone would ask about why someone is getting criticized or bullied here. Every facefag will be trashed for every perceived or imagined defect at every opportunity. Just how it is, has been, and always will be here.
>>65356869But they get to walk around behind the counter with a riced out Glawk on their hip and you need a four year degree in materials science and an extensive permitting program before you're allowed to do that /s
>>65356677Holy fuck I need that pronto
>>65356692Me when deciding between a MK18 and an 11.5”
>>65356906both are shit
>>65356678What's so great about bugs?
>>65356919Both are the shit, it’s true
>>65356724Yeah if you're trying to attract a man who is just like you.>>65356745t. bisexual>>65356778t. elliot rodgers dweeb trying to hit out of his league who keeps proposing to broken womenYour AR15 can't save you from yourself
>>65356691If that's a hair transplant, worst one I've ever seen.Looks more like just finnasteride + test to me
>>65356924both are shit
>no hair>no foreskin>no soul
>>65356929Both are indeed the bees knees, the shit, the best thing to happen to this retarded platform since getting invented
>>65356773trip on GT you dropout junkie anti-Christ i mog you to oblivion
>>65356906Get an >11.5" 5.56 and save the <10.5" for a 300 blackout.10.3 is probably fine though
>>65356936both are indeed shit, just shit
>>65356957They’re the shit yeah, both pretty good though the MK18 has a lot of cool guy points
>>65356948Fishy would>>65356952For me it's 12" or 14" for 308 and 6ARC
>>65356952That fair yeah
>>65356963yeah both are pretty shit
>>65356971The pinnacle of the platform indeed
>>65356976mhm, both are raw dogshit
>>65356987Both are the very best in firearms and the greatest inventions of this race, I agree fully
>>65356989yeah both are shit
fellas...
>>65356997shut up redditor
>>65356997Shut up nigger
I just bought a cloud rl100What can I look forward to
>>65357013a brighter future
>>65357013>The first entry-level weapon light you will be proud to run on your rifle. There is literally nothing wrong with my g2x OR my wmlx fuck those pretentious redditors
>>65357013are they planning on making a smaller version like the rein micro(penis)?
>>65357032The rein micro is extremely sexo and good but im not paying $400 for it.>actual right angle connector (fuck you surefire)>full output with cr123 (fuck you surefire)>DS00 rear button functionality included (fuck you surefire)>nicer color temperature (fuck you surefire)It's good
>>65357059That's why I'm asking if they'll make a cheaper version, $400 for a fucking flashlight is retarded
>>65357063Kinda, but now that I thought about it>m340dft $229>DS00 Tailcap $129>modbutton or surefire tapeswitch $79>total $437Technically surefire is worse.
>>65357076FUCK that. FUCK surefire
>>65357063Olight is waiting on you, come home son
>>65357059I bought one of those cloud defensive American flag lights that were on sale and it's already not working. I hope I just need to get a different battery.
>>65357107you get what you pay for
>>65357104NTA but I wouldn't mind getting an OSight for my staccato
>>65356948Post physique
>>65357107Anyone remember the anon(s) that spent months fighting cloud defensive support to replace their failing lights? I remember
>>65356927>t. elliot rodgers dweeb trying to hit out of his league who keeps proposing to broken womenthey were the ones who proposed to me. Dont get mad at me if youve never been with attractive women

People who think 10.3 is too short think 18 is too young
>>65357167doubt.jpg
>>65356923you can suck on them for hours
Fuck 11.5, why the fuck are you trying to shoot at longer distances with a SBR? Go get a 14.5 instead.
>>65356948>brown eyes>not pale skinGross
>>65357215>13.5">midlength>A5 reciever extensionIf you don't think that's peak AR then you are a homosexual fag with AIDS

>>65357224>14.5 long as fuck with canManlet
>>65357227It would be the same length regardless of your height dummy
>>65357230>dummy>he doesn't know about ratios
>>65357235Ratios won’t make door ways or halls any bigger anon, or woods any thinner. There’s plenty of reasons to not want a longer rifle, especially if you aren’t forced to use one
>>65357244>Ratios won’t make door ways or halls any bigger>ratio of opening to a short man is greater to that of a tall man God damn you are stupid holy shit!
>>65357247Okay if you’re a tall guy, you’re gonna really want a shorter rifle then because of that ratio of opening lmao
>>65357261>lmaoYou didn't even give me the lol, lmao even? Come on, anon
>>65357059>>65357063>>65357076What’s retarded is needing some kind of gay little dongle wire button setup. Just mount your light somewhere you can easily reach the endcap button that was included all along using your support hand thumb, people. If you aren’t using some kind of six gorillion function IR module, there is no point to muh leet oper9or tacticool tape switch bullshit.
>>65357107Doesn’t it use the same battery as rifle lights?
>>6535722410.5” vs 11.5”.
>>65357273I refuse
>>65357273Counterpoint: You're a faggot, fuck you.
My only red dots are two Aimpoint PROs and a Comp M4, and I’ve got an EOTech XPS2. I’ve had them all for the last 12-15 years and have never bothered upgrading to a smaller dot. Am I an idiot for sticking with the old red dot/holo tech I already have and not getting with the times? Are these optics obsolete in the days of modern reliable chinkshit cheap micro dots?
>>65357288>11.5More dwell time without being overgassed
>>65357487Now is an especially bad time to get an aimpoint they went up a lot in price. So if you want a dot in that size don’t feel bad about chinkshit. You already have those others.

>>65357607No real talk his wife was kinda busted and he cheated on her with some e-thot boothbabe unless I'm mistaken.About around the time he started blasting Test
>>65357667We both know what "some lilith" implied. He would never do that
>>65357667>and he cheated on her with some e-thot boothbabe unless I'm mistaken.I don't think any details about what actually happened came out. I think (((Leviathan))) tribe had something on him and when he left, they released it as revenge

>>65357279It uses an 18650, but the 18650 I tried using is a fenix one (had a spare) so I'm just hoping the fenix battery is no good for it.
>>65356664We need an answer
>>65358191not BB but this is mine after about 1kish rounds, probably 1/2 of that including frt use.
>>65358211My last one got destroyed totally in about that round count but mostly full auto. The minor diameter is gone to the nub>>65358191I will check but almost certainly. The cap is stuck on there so I have to put it in a vise and torque it off with a strap wrench or put it in the chuck in da lathe and lock the spindle. Either way I just haven't been assed to do that became I've been preoccupied with dumb stuff
Hypothesis:For gas operated action, as you open port to increase total energy allowed through port the force vs time curve gets spikier and sharper. While total integrated area is enough to operate action reliably, recoil impulse gets correspondingly spiky and peaked. On the other hand, longer dwell time or longer "effective dwell time" due to a high back pressure suppressor allows for smaller port to let same total energy through, but that is over a longer period of time so force vs time curve is more mellow and gradual. Result is comparatively smoother recoil, less punch and spike. Less shit like charging handle unlatching (big think... issue was previously solved with omega... but then I opened port to increase total energy because effective dwell time of faguar way less than Omega... and LO still not even getting reliable lock back, but spiky impulse overcomes max force spring and latch can handle) The irony (and cool thing actually) is that what we have is a situation where high BP can is actually smoother recoil and operation cycle than low BP can. The distinction between total energy in an operation cycle being distributed over a longer period of time vs shorterChanging the peak impulse valuesThoughts? I can return Faguar turns out to Silencershop for store credit.Also does anyone know of a basic bitch 17-4 SS HT 30cal suppressor, hub compatible, K length (sub 5.5" OAL no mount) large diameter (1.6"+) that is aggressively quiet (high back pressure) and say sub $600?I'm aware of:Rex Silentium MG7k Liberty Anthem K2I'm sure there are more. >>65357593Very curious what this does in terms of suppressor performance when a can is mounted on it. >>65358064Not bad at all if it weren't for the Protac light.
>>65357593Do a flash test.
>>65357593What is that sitting on? Is that a table or some sort of weird wood door mat? Looks like a nightmare to clean out all those valleys

>>65358064Can tell where the budget ran out/10>>65357487Newer microdots will do better wtih NV and magnification but if you dont care about that, the only major difference will be weight.>>65357013A poorly made light>>65357059Terrible light lmafoActual meme product
>>65358410>no AK thread pitchesGod damn it I wanted one for my AK SBR. Hopefully they make one since they do make a bunch of AK muzzle devices. I'm curious about the flash as well.
Counter point, mk18s are way cooler
>>65358410I wonder how well all those little diverters work for reducing brake concussion.
>>65358399Yeah it technically is a blast baffle ain't it. Picrel was after only a few hundred rounds.
>>65358435We cannot allow Iran to have access to trvkes like this

>>65358521>>65358521You're the only poster I know that has one of these. If I'm trying to make a funslop 10.5 AR with a can would I get the heavy buffer as opposed to the carbine?
>>65358597Never used it with a canBut id go heavy hands down. You will likely need a BRT tube, adjustable block or similar since there really isnt enough space in the buffer to tune it.
>>65358603Thanks big dog.
>>65358508i like u
>>65358597>Only poster with onePicrel has one and I've used it both on my 10.3/5 uppers and 16 uppers with no issues in full auto or semiauto except for one particular combination of bcg, overgassed upper, and the lighter of their two buffers.
>>65358648Well I especially like you and your rifle
>>65358597I finally got one of those heavy buffers after waiting like 6 months for a restock. >If I'm trying to make a 10.5 with a can would I get the heavy buffer as opposed to a carbineYeah I'd do that, however their carbine buffer has been fine on my 11.5 upper with and without a can
>>65358988What sized cap is that for your light?
>>65358694If you want to go any further you'll have to speak to my dad first :/
>>65358999It's the front lens cap from an aimpoint T2. Vicious taught me that hack
>>65359018Shit I’ll even show him my gun
>>65358988Tasteful rifleGood job
>>65359031>Tasteful rifleCertainly better than most.But give him -1 point for running a lens cap on his fucking flashlight, and another -1 for not running lens caps on his optic.Lens caps on optics at least have some degree of practical utility in regular civilian application.The only civilians running lens caps on flashlights are the try-hard faggots that fall for the memes and buy bullshit shilled by guntube beard oil salesmen.You either commit to the LARP delusions and run GRAVY-SEAL levels of bullshit accessories until your rifle weighs 25lbs, or just take the sensible path and simply don't put completely unnecessary bullshit like flashlight lens caps on your rifle. Fence-sitting and half-arsing just makes the end product worse than either extreme.
>>65359027nvm

>>65359198And I thought my blogposts were bad...
>>65359058As the one responsible for bringing light caps back, they are somewhere between "perfectly fine" and "essential equipment".Just the other day I was doing some UAS shit and caught a fellow observing with his m300 that was functioning as a signal mirror.>Lens cap on a dotEhhhh not really? Even if he trips and gets OREO® McFlurry® all over his lens you can simply occluded optic shoot like an original aimpoint in the seconds it takes you to lick off the delicious vanilla reduced fat ice cream.>>65359176Its a good rifle but why have two of the same?
>>65359225I really really hate having to eyeball measurements and it's one of the reasons I never liked shotgunsmithing. The engineer is a retard that made a retarded assumption that cost the company and me time and killed the flow on the shit I'm already working on rather than put a ticket in. To quote Garfield:
>>65359237>As the one responsible for bringing light caps backWhere did you go and how did you bring them back? You mean you made a meme of it on /arg/.
>>65359242This image postedGT asked me about itGave him a story of how/whyGT bootlegged it and posted itOne hundred concepts saw it and said "wow it should be commercialized!"Follow on companies followed it
>>65359273The topic of using lens caps or bikini covers to cover WMLs has been discussed as far back as 2011 you didn't come up with this idea lol. It's nice that you thought of it from first principles and got a weird roider to notice you but
Just about every 14.5 6 Arc barrel I'm finding is stainless steel. The stainless ones should be good to go, right?
>>65359273Post plate carrier NOW
>>65359306>The stainless ones should be goodProbably gonna wear out kinda quick with a round that hauls ass like that
>>65359329Seems like of the currently available ones, majority of them are stainless. I was settling between shaw, vseven, and noveseke (if the third one would ever be in stock) and two of the three are stainless. Shaw is nitride at least.
>>65359306No they're not gtg. Ss is most common because boomers minmaxxing cartridges care most about accuracy not muh chromelining + logistically the cost to procure or order chromelined 6 arc chambered barrels wouldn't make sense if like only 1:1000 customers want one.
>>65359349You bump into me in the the night there's only gonna be one discharge if you know what I'm saying.
>>65359237I have a cog+rmr on the ff ras now and the sr15 gets the T2 to stay nice and light. What are your thoughts on the urx6 rail? Looks like I'm gonna have to swap my urx4 for the 6 if I want to use my crs3.
>>65359360The real question is where the light caps went and where did A2 find them
>>65359358I'm glad I asked before I made the commitment because they're all 500 dollars minimum. It looks like Criterion has one in stock, but carbine length gas. I need to do a bit more reading regarding gas lengths for this caliber.
>>65359301And the original delta dive lights were covered with caps so they wouldnt break on infils and to prevent light NDs.Hence me not saying I came up with it goofus but rather explaining the modern light cap revival is directly downstream of /arg/.>>65359310Dont think I have a great recent photo but this is close enough.>>65359306They are stainless because its easier to do low volume>>65359362Nice.>URX6Yeah the gap creation sucks, maybe try an adco spacer.
>>65359443>I came up with it goofus but rather explaining the modern light cap revival is directly downstream of /arg/Eh hard to prove and desu it just seems like a natural progression of trends that were already growing in parallel with increased civilian nvg use
>>65359460Its pretty trivial, lets work backwards>First 10 seconds, https://youtu.be/2ZpbsVCNmbo>https://youtu.be/bA_CGAAeKCo?t=726>https://desuarchive.org/k/search/username/a2grip/filename/lightcover.jpg/order/asc/And then we loop back to pic rel and the subsequent phone calls after lul>NVG useIt has nothing to do with NVG.
>>65359443What ze fuck gA2 take a new pic and show the class! Also what’s that frame thing you seem to have under it? I’ve been trying think of ways to refit my JPC 2, as currently I have it pretty slick to run with a belt but I wanna start transitioning most of that stuff the jpc itself. That way I’m gtg with just the PC but if I need it, I can double up with the belt and really start getting heavy and hauling major ass. Any advice for kitting the shit out of a jpc?
>>65359460>>65359495If we really want to get autistic, I spent a shitload of time trying to make a company make a light cover before the image was posted but they kept trying to project creep it into being like a vis filter, sim protector and 20 other tasks. Got so fed up with them I just started drip feeding it here and IG, the rest is history.
>>65359495>It has nothing to do with NVGit's tangential but as far as I can tell forums really popped with questions specifically about covering lights to prevent NDs (as opposed to for preventing carbon buildup) between 2008-2012.>Nvg use increases>Low light classes increases>people noticing NDing bigger deal than thoughtI believe you that garand thumb is stupid and needed you to show him a relatively common solution but that's about it.Not sure you understand how this works byeah when did they go out of style that you suddenly brought them back?
>>65359504seems bikini covers and lens caps were being used for this purpose as far back as 2008 so why even bother trying to convince a light company to make a product to buy for that?
>>65359528>Why do you like money?In the food groups there's only one bikini and four wmls.
>>65359520They never were "in style" in the first place. >NDing bigger deal>Caps are for NDsI just dont think you understand the function of modern lightcaps people put on rifles.>>65359528>screenshot after all the videos and details were releasedExcellent contribution. >2008Goes way back before that
>>65359538>Food groupsA2 also popularized posting trannies with guns but you don't see him bragging about #thatshitgay>>65359538Eh seems like a shitty product only sold by a company that takes advantage of incompetence or ignorance, like 100 circumcisions
>>65359542>screenshot after all the videos and details were releasedYeah I posted it because I knew you wouldn't acknowledge the other three posts from a decade prior to yours but you would respond to the single post from after because you are not clever.>>65359542>I just dont think you understand the function of modern lightcaps people put on riflesI'm telling you the logic people justified to use them, not the reasons you decided to do it. If you want to have a productive conversation you have to actually be transparent
>>65359542>contribution.>>2008>Goes way back before thatYeah but unfortunately not everything is archived. But yeah
>>65359552Here, maybe if you actually looked at what I posted you could perhaps discover the function of said light caps>https://youtu.be/bA_CGAAeKCo?t=726It has nothing to do with NDs nor do they even do all that much for NDs. Even without NVGs a ND is visible through all these caps. Civilian ownership of NVGs is decoupled from light covers because vis light NDs under a cover are still bright as shit.

Because I did a very solid job outlining where the modern light cap market came from. Shit even before OHC existed I used the exact words "Nothing in the gun industry is new, its just reinventing the wheel" to specifically call out it was nothing new.Turkish man invents steam engine, uses it to spin kebab tier post.
>>65359596Yes
>>65359597I invented it but never told anyone.
>>65359603Thats good.Glad I told people about it and posted it here resulting in a renaissance of light covers on rifles. Commercial or improvised, doesnt matter people got better directly because of it.
>>653595971. The post from 2008 is not about carbon2. I never claimed it started on the earliest dated post I shared, in fact the opposite3. I said I knew you wouldn't acknowledge my posts, which I'm correct—you didn't even read them or at least not thoroughly.4. The thesis was that you are just a single link in a seamless chain tracing back quite far as you yourself pointed out, just another blip.But yeah, you can have credit for inventing specifically using a T2 cap with a piece of tape to solve your specific pou problem which means it's a totally new concept.>Turkish doner steam engineshitYeah I get the midwit point you thought you made about >ehrm You wouldn't claim the Turkish popularized the steam engine because they didn't do mass industrialization with it!!!! Checkmate atheists!!!!The aeolipile, the Architonnerre, the pressure cooker, and water powered steam engines all lead naturally to the vacuum, the piston and cylinder, and all THAT to the commercialization of the steam engine.So I guess in this analogy you are the Jew who tried to monetize a popular field expedient solution to several problems, and solving more as time goes on.Your midwit conception of reality is hilarious>first patent for steam engine = invention!!!Why do you think Thomas Newcomen couldn't hold a patent for the steam engine?

>>65359650None of the posts from yesteryear have anything to do with reflection. They are all carbon or ND related. None of the modern products on the market do anything for carbon or for ND. They were never popular because it wasnt an issue people were concerned with. People are concerned with reflection, hence the light caps being popular now. This popularity is a direct result of a2posts. You don't understand this and are upset accordingly.Do you need a diagram to understand the difference?

This popularity is a direct result of a2posts. You don't understand this and are upset accordingly.Kek okay man if you say so. I get it.>*I* specifically did it for reflection>*I* specifically told Garand Thumb about it for reflection>*Some Jew from some Jewish Company* specifically said he got the idea to commercialize product from Garand Thumb >ergo I am the direct cause of people specifically buying caps for reflectionThe thesis of my argument which *you* seem to understand is that the statement>responsible for bringing light caps backIsn't true. It was never gone.You are allowed to take credit for popularized using a T2 bikini cap and a piece of tape to specifically address reflection and inspiring 109 Jewish concepts and an egg (will crack into a roided, adulterous utuber) but brought it back? That's a stretch lmao
>>65359716It was so popular that you can produce a single photo of it vs thousands upon thousands of them sold in the time span since that a2post. I mean surely the "civilian nvg" was increasing during that period but why did it pop back up around the time of several posts and videos?> It was never gone.One forum post every 5 years is truly the same as thousands of caps. Wouldnt be a BB chimpout without a constant stream of straw grasping.
Some more cool specific examples I guess:>During the Vietnam War, "tunnel rat kits" and early military flashlights (like the angle-head TL-122) were often carried. Soldiers frequently used red, blue, or IR filter caps over the lens to preserve night vision. To stop accidental glare or light leaks, they would wrap the flashlight bezel with 100-mph tape or electrical tape, often poking a tiny pinhole through it so only a sliver of light could escape.>While not weapon-specific, the military concept of using physical caps to control light emission dates back to World War II. Convoys used slotted, opaque blackout covers on vehicle headlights to navigate stealthily, proving the tactical need for physical barriers over light sources.>ARDs as a concept establishing military doctrine of physical accessories to prevent reflection>Section on Camouflage (Shine): "Shine is the reflection of light from an object. It can be caused by smooth, polished surfaces such as a watch crystal, glass, shiny metal, or plastic. Anything that reflects light must be covered or removed. Blending with the background is impossible if any part of the soldier or his equipment reflects light.">Because early tactical weapon lights (like the widely issued SureFire M951 or early Scout series) featured bright aluminum bezels and completely unmasked glass faces, they directly violated this mandate if left exposed during daytime operations.natural progression, man
>>65359758>>65359752>produce a single photo vs one trillion shitposts broit's not one forum post either but several different forums I posted. Again I cannot help if things weren't archived. Again it was never gone. But yeah specifically using a T2 bikini and a piece of tape to specifically prevent reflections on weapon mounted lights on rifles is something you popularized and thus brought back (from where???)
>>65359761But if it was popular there would be more evidence. We literally have more photos of people putting acogs behind their eotech as a magnifier than you have. I dont think anyone is arguing that is a popular optics combination bud.But please continue the chatgpt spray into the thread.
>>65359225I didn’t.
>>65359767more evidence of what? Of using it specifically for reflections or using caps to prevent reflection or using bikini covers on weapon mounted lights? Because none of those were part of my whole point.>more photos of acogs behind eotech than you haveWhat the hell are you talking about, Jesse?
>>65359781>Evidence of whatLight covers on firearmsYou assert they were so popular that there is nobody ITT could possibly be responsible for their revival. These assertions lie mainly in less than a half dozen forum posts with a single photo. If it truly was something people were doing, let alone at scale we would have the evidence. More posts, more photos and shit even more products. But none of that exists, surefire doesnt even make a solid cap, they only produced colored filters to function as filters at the time. I know this because I was literally painting over surefire blue covers for the initial attempts and having an issue finding one that would fit a 600df vs older 600 heads the filters were designed for.
The stakes are so low, man. This gay little general and it's resident egotist moved the needle, OK? It's not that deep
>>653595425.45 ak worth suppressing? I've been thinking about relegating the rc2 to my slr104
I'm just catching up on the thread from this afternoon. Let me get this straight - this nigga is actually the Leonardo Davinci of AR-15's creating a flashlight cover renaissance?when do we bring up the fact that covering up shiny shit has been tactically practiced for millennia...
>>65359767>chatgpt sprayyeah I don't like it either but I thought all of those were neato examples tbqh>>65359597>Nothing in the gun industry is new, its just reinventing the wheelI missed this entirely zam. I didn't follow me own advice, matey. Basically what I'm saying, yeah.Look it's still a bold claim by evidence of how much you've had to walk it back. I know I jokingly keep saying it but you're allowed to claim responsibility for the blah blah blah reflectionsgt100cpipeline because>>65359791You're right that I cannot be assed to produce evidence right now despite how spurious I still think that claim is.I've posted several examples of>Covering lights to prevent reflections>Covering firearm lights to solve various problems>You mean you made a meme of it on /arg/.Still true but I concede this entire argument is semantical and thus counts as a meltie on my part. Fine. I wugged out off a technicality. But you knew this would happen
>>65359856>this nigga is actually the Leonardo Davinci of AR-15's creating a flashlight cover renaissance?nah. China actually has some basic shit made now. I dont see why people just dont use scope lense flip ups or some basic plastic covers. The concern was reflection shining back at IR or similar lights when your enemy is pointing at you. I would think it doesn't matter- if you have a taclight, you were preparing for close quarters combat anyway. tf are you doing with a useless taclight for ranged fighting
>>65359560>posting a video that makes a case for hyper throw lights
so uhhh which cheap light is gtg? or is there no such thing?
>>65360036Haters will say g2x but my wildcard is x300u off gafshub
Best suppressor for signature reduction? Should I just get the rc2 or the new uncircumcised one?
>>65360050KAC CRS-3 has unironically surpassed the RC2 in that regard. The tech they use to reduce the first round pop is legit and the flash reduction overall was better than the RC2 at the night shoot I recently went to.
>>65360036Surefire or inforce, if you buy anything else you fucked up

>>65360067is the inforce arc 350 decent for something small like an mp5k?
Having both the m640u and m640df I would say for how close they are in price just get the m640df when it’s on sale

>>65359850Aks with rc cans look badass. Therefor this is a good descision.
>>65360189no they don't
>>65360175What about 11.5 with k-can
>>65360201Sex
>>65360184With that one? Like 300 on minute of man rock with tula. SSTs you can do 400 but it really starts running out of gas and stringing verticallyWith the 308 like 700. There's a nice pond with a small boulder in the middle that's very satisfying to hit. Still waiting on snow to melt for my other targets
>>65360204Then I’m sticking with 11.5 but I’ll consider 14.5/16” for a SPR, smooches you
>>65360207Nice, there are few sightlines in Appalachia that extend that far (that aren't near people or visited), but most have trees that I string 1/2 size targets in. >shooting boulderI bet the cracks do sound satisfying
>>65360212>SPRHell go full send and build a 18in
>>65356671Goyrand dumb is not a fan of israel
>>65360218Tbh I don’t really see the point of an 18”
>>65360227I did it for the 'MK12' funsies of shooting at extended ranges
My God one of those Mid Tier Facebook groups where boomers flex on each other bullied one of their members into suicide. Nigga wtf how is this cursed place more wholesome than there?
>>65357215nothing should exist between 11.5 and 20

I melted the fuck out of a cole-tac htp wrap today. Should have stopped shooting at the first sign of smoke, I suppose.
I melted the fuck out of a black-dildo today. Should have stopped shoving it in my ass at the first sign of prostate stimulation, I suppose.
>>65360468Oh, hell yeah dude. Good thing you spent $100 on a wrap, just to melt the shit out of it, because it can't do the one thing you bought it to do.
>>65360307Cause some /arg/ fags dont like skinny rails, thats all

AR10 question. Should the rear back up iron sight go on the very last picc slot or second to last? It hangs over the rear most edge slightly. It's a Precision Reflex flip up.
>>65360538very last
>>65360565danke
>>65360538Very rear increases your site radius which is good, but probably negligible compared to the 2nd to last slot. Having it hang over the rear of the receiver seems like it'd make it more vulnerable to being bumped and banged and probably looks weird. What upper receiver? My KAC rear site is in the furthest rear slot and doesn't hang over the end of my MWS upper.
>>65360581also danke>what upper?It's an old aero I picked up a long time ago on sale. figured it was time to build it out.
I just bought a BRN-4 what am I in for?
>>65360788At least one RMA
>>65360408Several .gov emails in the janny dox, do you not recall? Also wasn't moot implicated in the Epstein emails? Seems about as comped as comped could be. >>65360821What's your plan bro

>>65361104if you are being a purist maybe
I have an arisaka inline scour pro mount for the 11.5 but in order to get it flush with the front of the rail, it has to go on over the gas block. Would it be better to place it 1 slot back to keep it over the rail or shouild I put it 1 slot forward as a cantilever over the suppressor? It is the triangle design so it shouldn't bend easily
>>65361147nevermind, just double-checked and the velos is too thicc for the mount to go over it from the rail
>>65361101>Several .gov emails in the janny doxFake news
>>65360468Thats impressive, should have done a corset cover if you were shooting that fast>>65359850Sounds like 5.56 but a little backpressure bump. Might want to o-ring the top cover at a minimum and maybe a KNS piston. Real issue is the balance of the AK, they dont really do well if they are anything but the super short variants.>>65359891>Make assertion>Provide proofThems the rules.I thought we moved past your disingenuous arc, smdh>>65360010See >>65359904>tf are you doing with a useless taclight for ranged fighting>>65360036G2x excellent
>>65361275Honestly I wasn't even dumping that hard - I was shooting groups for about an hour, no problems, but the barrel was hot... Then I finished off the last half of my last mag shooting like 1 shot every 1-2 seconds and saw it smoking after like 5, but the time I dumped about 5 more it was really smoking - fucking stunk. Set it down, then noticed it was fucked up when I went to pack up.
I just took the biggest shit of my fucking life, unironically lost 5 lbs just like that, wtf.
I tried to get the Action Bronson New Balances but they sold out in like 2 seconds. Had em in my cart, but i paused like 2 second to make sure my shipping address was correct, by the time I hit purchase, I got the Out of Stock error modal. FUCK

So i'm doing this little gig in a range and i'm inspecting some guns. I'm not an AR afficionado, what would cause keyholing on one ? Flash hider too dirty and / or loose, barrel rifling shot up ? I only see those two.
>>65362271I dont like AKs enough for me to sell one of my uppers, besides that 14.5 URGI holds to much sentimental value due to how I scammed our buddy for most of the parts on it lol>picrelthose russian ARs that use the AK mags and the G rails look really cool. If I had more brain damage id build one
A houthi just flew over my house!
>>65362298Dogshit ammo or barrel shot out. Loose muzzle would probably only cause inaccuracy. Another major thing to check might be barrel nut installation and go/nogo gauge.
>>65362302Is that a chrono attachment on the muzzle? Never seen anything like that
>>65362320Ammo is decent and doesn't cause issues with virtually any other rifle in this range. The weapon concerned is a fuckass M&P.
>>65362285Wow I thought it was cool at first but nvm
>>65362322No it's for breaking glass or some shit
>>65361745"No."
I just got an upper in the mail where the box was abused like crazy. The thread protector got dinged up, is there any risk the barrel got bent or any other damage I should be aware of? Like I can visually see it's not fucked but should I have any concerns with it not shooting straight?
>>65362435Not really no, but if you are really anal you could contact who you bought it from with pictures and ask if they’d accept a return/reship for a different one. Worst case the threads got scuffed and would be obvious by looking at them.
>>65362435If you don't see anything out of shape with a visual inspection, it should be perfectly safe to shoot. Put a zero on it and start finding out.
>>65362411I'll allow it, but I'm biased.
>>65362498Never seen a greeny. I dig it.
>>65362520They're such great guns. Guy at the range this week had an A300 and it was pretty sick, too, I couldn't really tell a difference shooting it. How do you like that farrowtech mount? Nice that you can keep your stock rear iron with it.
>>65362498>>65362520Wait, I still haven't. Just realized the rifle is the same tint.
>>65362532Only put a handful of shells through an A300, but it definitely seemed most of the way there to the 1301 as far as function and feel go.Farrowtech mount has held up well. Had a T1 on there for a while until I repurposed it.
>>65362534Nah it's the factory ODG one, rifle is just painted a similar color
>>65362543Wouldn't it be more efficient to store the extra shells upside down? Pull down, push forward into the tub
>>65362584More efficient...maybe? Those elastic shell holders only have so much tension though and you're likely to lose some shells to bump-assisted gravity, especially when they get into the last half of their service life.
>>65362612nice oldies, both H&R? Ive got another carry handle slop build on the way rn. I wish I could quit them
