When it comes to looks, what do you think are some of the sexiest AR’s?

0 Upvotes

It can be internal piston and external piston. Pick whatever AR makes, models, and variants you find to be sexy.

What 1.93 mount can I use for a magnifier and which magnifier should I get? Or should I just keep it like this?

My kids struggled to get a good grip/reach the trigger when we went out shooting, so I made a skinny anemic looking grip for them and put it on my site Rokin precision . Goofy af but they definitely handle better!

Just picked up one of these custom pmags from Maryland 1st Armory. Definitely worth the buy! They’ll work with you to get specific on your order, too. Highly recommend! The owner is around here. I bet he’ll chime in.

And let’s be honest. Goth Girl is a looker.

Is this retainer pin/tube threaded on enough?

It’s being held in place, but I feel like I should go another round, but the goddamn takedown pin spring is being a pain in my ass.

Thanks

Extreme heat JB Weld?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hello fellas and fillets! I was wondering how optimal this muzzle device from surefire is atm. My plan is to sand/file down all the burrs and occasionally suppress it. My question is, if I leave it in this state will there be a lot of gasses that’ll hit my freshly manicured nails. And if I can prevent that, will extreme heat JB weld help prevent that. Thanks in advanced, signed yalls best friend when we’re graded on a curve.

I have a hard time using my hands and using a hammer, punch and pins is difficult. But I built my first rifle and have 3 more lowers to build.

Where can you shoot a frt in Ohio?

I’m looking for a range that will allow FRTs in Ohio. I would prefer an outdoor range but I can’t find any that allow them. Anyone have any suggestions or even if there are any in Ohio.

Anybody have any experience putting an Atrius FRS into a Springfield Saint ARP in .300?

1 Upvotes

TLDR: I had the original trigger in the gun and the selector was safe of course in the forward position, then cycled to semi-auto in position 2, and then back to safe in the third position. I since then have swapped to a Rave 140 and now only have semi auto as an option. And it’s on safe when firing semi. Has anyone had a similar issue?? Did I put the selector in wrong ? I haven’t had time to play with it anymore tonight but I am definitely confused.

For reference I have experience building rifles for a large corporation I won’t name. However I have absolutely no experience in the world of a forced reset trigger or safety.

How you do deal with optic fog due to high humidity levels and dense fog?

Upvotes

Newbie here. I shot this morning in a very humid and foggy environment. For reference, I have a holosun 510c and HM3X magnifier. I know that since it’s an open emitter optic it’s not ideal for the elements but would an enclosed optic make a difference when it comes to fog? Even after wiping the lens the fog would come back shortly after due to how much moisture was in the air. What can I do about it besides wiping the lens every 5 minutes and is the open emitter optic the problem?

Anyone here have firsthand experience with Mustang Armament?

1 Upvotes

I’m looking into Mustang Armament lately and was curious what the general consensus is from people who have actually owned or shot one.

I’m interested in things like:

Reliability
Accuracy
Build quality
Long-term durability
Customer service
Whether you think it’s worth the price

I’m looking for firsthand experiences more than “my buddy said…” or brand loyalty.

If you’ve owned one for a while, put a decent round count through it, or compared it directly to something like a KAC, LMT, Geissele, BCM, etc., I’d love to hear your thoughts.

What did you like? What didn’t you like? Would you buy another one?

The header basically says it all, I’m finally gunna (pun intended) pull the trigger on something nice, I don’t know anybody who owns one of what I’m looking at, and won’t have an opportunity to try out before buying one, is the SOLW as good or better than Daniel defense? I can’t decide which one! First world problems.

Can someone clear some things up for me.

So this guy is wanting to trade this for something I have.

He says the lower was registered as a stripped reciever. So that means I have the option of running it in either variation, correct? Standard rifle configuration with stock and vfg. Or micro pistol variation.

Also, is this a valor vm1 reciever. Valor 16" upper, and a valor micro pistol uppers.

Do i have to change the buffer tube to a carbine buffer tube when I run it in rifle variation? Im guessing the extra buffer weight is because the blow back from a pistol barrel and rifle barrel are significantly different.

He said he also purchased the rare breed frt for it and some other small stuff. What's a ballpark number for this bundle. Lower end to higher end.
