>>33568426

>why is your dbal so far back

Keeps the center of mass farther to the rear, which helps. Less swinging mass hanging all the way out at the end of the barrel. Also obstructs less of the FOV through the ACOG mounted there vs toward the front.

>your cable management is severely lacking

Yeah I should probably zip-tie it down or swap one of my ladder covers for the version with cable hooks. Noted.

>that coban wrap is AIDS

The wrap holds the tape switch in an absolutely perfect position nestled between the tube and the top rail, and also provides a handy bit of extra grip right where my hand goes. It's a little ugly, but very functional.

I could replace it with black wrap I suppose.

what's the point of using a caliber designed for accuracy if you're gonna feed it shit tier russian ammo?

>>33568732
>why would you use a caliber based on a russian round and then buy russian ammo??
Because American 6.5 is about 70cpr and Russian shit is 25cpr. I'm not overly concerned with group size if it'll hit a steel plate at 5-600 yards

>>33568732
It's also ballistically unique being an intermediate intermediate, accuracy isn't its only strong suit. I think it would serve much better in a long barreled bullpup setup like the desert tech that's never coming out

If I had access to a 6.5 barrel and Bolt, my AUG would already be rocking that

Right

>>33568829
NcStar optics get highly reviewed too.

>>33568842
This is also true. But Anderson actually does things well on a budget unlike NcStar. Gun probably wouldn't see much use passed 200 yards unless I move anyways, not a lot of long distance shooting to be had in FL aside from OKSS 500 yard shoots every now and then

Guess I will just call it babbys first build mod2 given the fact it is more or less the same as the old gun, just a lot more expensive

>>33568892
It's not really poverty, there's just nobody else who makes m4 profile 6.5 barrels. Even if I got the Anderson I'd have to get a few hundred dollars worth of work done to cut it, contour, re-thread, and then P&W a SF3P

500-600y on plates is really easy with bog standard 55gr .223 though. I will however admit that heavier projectiles do make impacts far easier to hear though.

Whats really fun is wrangling those little pills down through transonic though.

Ok. I've held up my end of the bargain. Now what can I get to replace that piece of shit quad rail? I'd like to keep the price under $100 if possible. All I care about is getting it lighter. I really don't have any preference beyond that.

It's a mid-length.

>>33568930

>Gets called out
>b-b-b-but you're a noguns anon!

Just because I'm not an attention whoring poor tripfag doesn't mean I'm noguns. I can't prove I own that rifle at the moment because I'm at work. You know, like someone who can afford a decent gun.

You're going to have to actually refute my assertions rather than my gun owning status shitlord.

>>33569001

It came with one. I want a quad rail so I can mount tacticool shit on it. Come on, man, this is /k/ after all...

>>33569013

Need quadrail
Not Freefloat.

Beyond that I'm game.

>>33568977
True, but if I'm gonna have a dedicated rifle to do it I'd just use my FAL, no reason to build an otherwise bland AR for a boring purpose since I hate target shooting like that anyways

That's why the 6.5 appeals to me so much, still cheap, a lot more versatile and interesting, but still a lot of commonality with ARs
>also dat snowflake status

I might go ahead and start building the 16, since every other piece will be the same anyways, and then when I want to spend 500 dollars on a barrel I'll just get a 14.5 M4 profile spun from a blank. Everything else will be fairly cheap looking at it

Normally I would just ignore this brand of tripfaggotry, but you've chapped my ass. When I'm back home in about 2 hours I'll post a timestamped photo.

I'll also name two features of the rifle that cannot possibly be visible in that photo, but I'll make sure are evident in the timestamped one.

I just posted the 18" since it is what I shoot most often further out. I've stretched the 10.3" out to 500 as well. Shooting cheap 6.5g just seems odd to me since you can go 7.62x39 with bolt/barrel/mag like 6.5g but buy ammo anywhere instead of having to hunt for it.

I went a step further than a standard x39 AR but I've taken it to 600 with boringly repeatable hits with Monarch FMJ from Academy.

6.5g on paper at least has much better ballistics too and I'll get the benefit of being able to use a standard lower and normal STANAG mags. I tried to grab an SKS to do 7.62x39 but I might just wait to see what happens with NFA and Russian imports before going ahead to do an AK-104 clone

IMO I'd just grab a magpul handguard then since you can direct mount their VFGs to one. there are also plenty of light mounts for them if you end up wanting to bolt on more later as well.

It opens up a lot of options

SLR
2A Armament

Stick with m lok or a quad rail though. Avoid keymod. Even though I have BCM
Listed.

M lok is the way to go imo

>>33569334
If you go ADM and plan on dialing a lot, go for the Delta series. I own both, and I find the horizontal caps allow me to stay on the rifle easier since they don't obscure the turrets near as much. Especially when prone.

Still don't like the look of 16 carbine though, it's just unnaturally long. Guess I'll just have to deal with it. Depending how work goes I think I'll buy at least the barrel and an upper in the next week or so

Oh shit or did you mean that the Sabre uppers in particular were out of spec?

>>33569858
Yea, Saber was the mfg but that doesn't change that there's a couple people saying the uppers they bought from them may as well have had no barrel

I might just grab a Wolf 16 inch upper for 400 and replace the railed gas block with a FSB, couldn't be overly difficult

Someone tell me why I shouldn't consider this instead of drilling my barrel

>>33570035
Apparently their barrel nut and attachment systems isn't the best.
Some have had their rails walk off. Dan specifically and other on the interwebs.

I personally like the SLR, Fortis, Seekins, and 2A

But any are at least decent. To get the best you'd need to go past the $275 mark.

However sometimes you can find a Geissele or Daniel Defense around $225

>>33570069
Blue force gear and I really like the ferro concepts too. At least the looks of it. Haven't been able to trget one tho bc they are always out of stock

>>33570090
The discussion was about their drop-ins so the only significantly different true drop in rails for mounting would be the KAC, DD, VLTOR, and ARMS.

You are correct about MI's free floats though.

Everything moves too fast in the realm of ARs, and there's just so much of everything. Even if that monster of a pastebin was compiled and updated, hardly anyone would bother to look through it, as so many other generals that had pastebins have demonstrated.

I used to own it, for starters.

For realy tho, as long as you get the quadrails you should be good. Their other offerings are rather heavy compared to the competition (which is odd, considering their quadrails are lighter than most), and their proprietary mounting systems range from either objectively awful to unspectacular.

I know it can revert over time but the vast majority of people are stable for decades with no or very minor regression, and presbyopia only becomes a thing before 50 and would probably happen regardless.
In my case they strongly advised against LASIK because the flap never fully heals and can come loose with rough treatment. They said it can take up to half a year for the vision to settle after PRK.
Was making 800yd shots just fine last week when I was in the good phase, but now it's blurry again. Guess I'm just an impatient shit.

No, because that rifle is proof positive that god is dead. It's like...can you have multiple abortions? Like, can the first doctor just stop trying and you have to go find another doctor who fails and then you go to another doctor all using different tools and techniques to get such an affront to all that is good and beautiful?

>>33571381
That pistol, yes

So i'm an AK fag but my dads recent purchase of a .300 AR really makes me want to get an AR

(the fact you can have a 9in barrel without losing much performance is sexy)

but i feel like if i spend $2500 at the local shop, i need to go full retard and get an SBR.

are piston ARs or whatever they're called, really the meme people make them out to be?

I feel like if i'm going to get an AR pistol, i should say fuck it and get a tax stamp so i can have a folding stock.

But how exactly do these fucking folding ARs work with that whole buffer tube thing?

can you still shoot the piston ARs with the stock folded?

if not, i'll just get a normal one.

i know slav shit like the back of my hand, dont make fun of me please for not knowing shit about the AR platform.


(sorry you can fuck off with other memes, i want "MADE IN MY HOME TOWN" on the rifle, plus they have a transferable lifetime warranty)

You should try this again in English. Collect your thoughts and ask specific questions.

Well that's retarded, why the hell do people make them then?

I thought that was the point, i mean after thinking about it, i was trying to figure out where the bolt went, but still.

maybe i dont want an SBR now.

>wdhmbt
didn't want people recommending brands, there's a local company Core15 and they make some beautiful pieces of kit.

They're also made in my hometown which is just neat, i know 3 people that own one.


Also they don't care if you dropped 20K rounds down range, or are the 5th owner, their warranty covers the lifetime of the firearm.

every time i see one, i actually want an AR

someone also told me they only make rifles that make sense, they refuse to produce a .223 below 10in or some shit, 8.5in is as short as you can buy the .300

"no"

>>33571424
Yes, go for the SBR.

Pistons are not worth the extra cost unless you have a very specific need such as firing while folded, or shooting while swimming.

The only folder that works with a standard recoil system is from Law Tactical, you still need to unfold it to fire more than a single shot.

*Some* piston uppers allow the use of a folder as they do not leverage the standard recoil system. The old Para TTR, Faxon ARAK, RRA PDS, and Oly OA-93 are popular examples of this.
