Finally. First AR of the thread no thanks to homo OP

Correct me if this sounds wrong but I'm doing an m16a1 build.
I bought a complete upper receiver and now I need a lower. Would an Anderson arms lower with a2 stock be appropriate? Or do I need to buy a nodak lower and pop a lower parts kit in there?

Also milsurpdude, where can I find a bipod for the m16a1 like you have? The m60 one

You need an A1 stock to be truly authentic. They're shorter than an A2 and kinda weird. I know guys who wear carriers a lot who throw them on their rifles as its a little more manageable than an a2. Good for manlets as well.

but youre 17, how are you buying guns?

>>30152440
i pushed the trigger guard roll pin in with the corner of my desk when i built my lower....

it's not hard you just need a punch for the bolt catch roll pin really. you'll need a stock wrench as well if you're going with a collapsible.

you can buy the detent tool for the front detent if doing it inside a trash bag sounds like a hassle, or you can buy a battle arms enhanced pin set, they go in really REALLY easily.

probably forgetting something..... but they're super easy to build

>>30152451
any way to tell?

>>30152440
You need knowledge bruh, watch youtube videos of people putting together lowers and decide for yourself which tools you need. Some guys have a special tool for every pin and part, others do the whole thing with a single punch and some household shit.

Note, youtube is terrible to learn about barreling your upper though.

Still newgunz here.

Trying to decide if I should get a carry pistol or an AR pistol next.

I don't really want to build an AR pistol, so I'm curious about what good brands make reliable models.

I'll be setting up a trust to convert it to an SBR and getting a can for it as I plan on using the AR for home defense.

So one of the cartridges was so jammed in there that when i pulled it out the bullet came loose and all the powder came out. I got all of it from the barrel and extractor, but there is still some around the (dont even know what part of the gun thats called, but the area around the back end of the barrel? like not where the bullet acually goes in but the area around that) and i cant get that shit out, but it shouldnt interfere with chambering and extracting a round right?

Build a standard AR with a 16" barrel then later apply for your SBR as you never know if your CLEO is an asshole; AR pistol are kinda shitty because they're not designed to have the gas system fed so close to the action. Better to get a standard AR and see if you enjoy the platform then do all the legal stuff and get a new upper.

If you mean this, yes

>>30152616
That area you are talking about is your barrel extension and debris in there will be fine. It sounds like your ammo is shit or you have a short chamber. What it sounds like is that your bullets are being seated into the rifling just from being chambered. Which is not good. That can lead to an over pressure and cause the weapon to detonate. Try a different ammo and if that dose not work you may need a new barrel.

Of course this is my thinking and there may be something different wrong with the gun.

anything bellow 16" can be classified as a pistol.....Just be sure to call your lower receiver a pistol lower when you do your 4473. You cant take a stock M&P 15 Sport and then put a short barrel and pistol tube on it and call it a pistol.

These are all great suggestions and I appreciate them. Daniel Defense and Noveske in particular were names I had heard passed around but hadn't researched them.

I've also looked up Radical Firearms but can't seem to find much information in terms of reviews on their products. Online reviews/comments seem to be glowing, but those are easy to falsify, especially when we're talking about a rifle at that price point. I was wondering if anyone knew more about them and their reputation.

>You basically build your sbr how you want and then just put a pistol tube on it.

Not to sound like a fool, as I'm sure everyone enters firearms ownership for different reasons, but one of my primary concerns about my weapons purchases is their resale value later. I like firearms because, unlike most things/hobbies, I can recuperate my costs should I decide to slim down or upgrade later. So while I appreciate functionality and/or design, I also consider a rifles price later on. My main concern with the AR platform is simply how flooded the market is with them. But I still want one... so whatever hits the wallet the least in the long run is the best.

>>30152689

>>30152382
>Angled grip is aow stamp witch is 5$
Holy fuck, you're an idiot.

Look, I'm not the kind of asshole to call "newfag" on anyone, but hear me out boy.

You are a fucking newfag. You need to take your faggot fucking trip off, and shut your fucking noisebox for a bit longer before you come around trying to answer things that you clearly know absolutely fuckall about.

Eventually, you WILL know what you're talking about, and then you can be helpful and feel smug about it like the cunt we all are. But answering things you don't know shit about can be an inconvenience at best, or cost someone life and fucking limb at worst when you're dealing with firearms. Don't be a faggot.

Thanks.

>>30152567
Forgot HK too.

>>30152652
I'm hoping it's the ammo, but again, not really sure how to tell what the problem is. Bought some new ammo, ran it through manually and they were still getting jammed. Might just be from feeding them through manually though?


And on the other hand, this showed up like 45 rounds first day at the range. First time owning an AR, but i was navy, so i've at least used them before and I feel like the gun malfunctioning after 45 rounds day one would be an ammo problem, but... dunno

Palmetto State Armory is the go to for /k/
Most of their shit can be had for cheap and for a bit more you can get some higher end shit. Like my SBR is a premium upper. Means I have a CHF barrel, Milspec Carpenter 158 BCG and a decent upper as well. Yes the market is flooded and will remain so till around election time. Then things will dry up and cost double.

I was considering a Ruger Takedown and/or a Mk12 Mod 0 clone, although I realize I may not be able to downgrade the Ruger to a Pistol, I'm not exactly strapped for cash so far as being unable to afford all three (though not so loaded to go buy them in one trip, let alone the same year).

Start with the cheap fixes first and then work your way to the more expensive fixes. Your extractor may be out of spec and not grabbing a hold of the casing properly. Drag your finger across the extractor and if its not SHARP then you probably need a new one.

you might want a spare firing pin and bolts do wear out but the bolt carrier is essentially indestructible if built correctly
if the gun fucks up, the screws are bad/ not staked then it will die but baring material defects the carrier wont wear out

>>30153895
I wouldn't get any of the small parts for the BCG. If you're really worried about a catastrophic failure, get a firing pin, cam pin, and bolt. Magpul makes an insert that stores all that nicely in the grip. Is what I plan on buying.

the lower is neither a pistol or a rifle. it is classified as an "other firearm" on the 4473, so unless you want to voluntarily register your built AR with your state if they have a registry, you cannot do this on a 4473.

Couple dumb questions

The fuck do you call the thing that goes around the barrel? That the picatinny rail goes on?

Can you take them off without fucking anything else up, like your optics? Or will you have to readjust everything else?

>>30154036
the barrel nut? also, yes, you can take the handguard off without fucking anything up. if you take the barrel nut off, though, you will have to re-adjust everything.

building an AR for the first time and i was wondering if someone could answer some questions?

if im not going for range but want a heavy barrel so heating up isnt as quick, would that be ok or should i just stick to standard?

i already bought a upper that is billet, should i get a lower that is also billet or is forged the way to go?

is a BCM BCG good enough?

>>30154068
gotcha

so I have a YHM freefloat, like http://yhm.net/accessories/forearms/free-float-ar-15-tubes.html these, got it because i liked the grip, but after a while i'm starting to regret it because i started gripping the magazine well while shooting, and having such a short rail for mounting seems like i'm limiting my options a lot. I mean all i'd put up top would be a scope anyway, but still. Is there any advantage to those kinds besides looks?

>>30152606
All u dumb niggers having trouble with take down pins ... go to home Depot or Lowe's or any hardware store and pay 75 cents for a 1/4 clevice pin.

>>30154094
I'd say most advantages are weight, durability of the metal used and the ability to attach things like vertical or angled foregrips, lights, etc... Let alone that most look better than the one you have chosen (no offense)

I personally don't think your scope should go past your upper receiver. But that is debatable.

All depends on your budget for the item you want.

>>30153071
Pretty sure this faggot just shot posts his guy bullet pictograph lower sitting in grass every thread and has never fired a gun before.

Each time I've built a ar I go pick up a lower the day the rest of the parts show up and build it the same day. I don't take pictures of a shifty lower for months on end.

with a heavy or bull barrel it will also take a much longer time to cool down that barrel once it is heated up. keep that in mind.

you should get a matching billet lower from the same manufacturer that made your billet upper if you want the features to line up. what brand is it?

bcm bcg is probably fine but you should try to source your bolt from the maker of your barrel.

What is the best A2 style AR I can buy? I want one with a fixed carrying handle and not a flat top rail receiver with a detachable handle

Also I live in a cuck state, so if they have a post ban model that is preferred, but I can always just buy a normal model and have the flash hider switched out and the lug taken off

>>30154964
he's not wrong, the majority of the pressure generated in an ar15 is probably around 4 to 9 inches. the area under the hand guards basically.

if you cut the barrel short in this critical area the FPS will drop off DRASTICALLY.

however, if you have a 24 inch barrel and cut off the last 4 inches or even 6 inches the FPS loss is very minimal.

Gonna help you out bro. A lengthy Free Float rail will allow you to control your rifle much easier. Plenty of YT vids out there that explain that. Also, never mount a scope or optic on the FF rail itself, always on the upper receiver.

I only have experience with the Scout series and X300U lights. The scout series is massive in terms of what can be had. The Fury has a massive 600 lumen light and the M300 can be purchased with a 200 or 300 lumen bulb. So its really about application.

twist can absolutely affect the speed, why do you think rail guns are not rifled?

i was literally reading a chart on some other site not even a week ago about this very topic. i'll search my history. the most drastic FPS loss was right around 12 to 14 inches (bbl length)

the least drastic was way out at the end between 24 and 20

>>30155106
I figured since I can get it for a new price and just drop a 600 lumen bulb in it would be a better deal than a $400 scout

So what is actually the highest velocity barrel length of .223/5.56? I know there isn't a significant change after 20", but what is actually the highest velocity length?

>>30155087
>Twist RATE doesn't affect velocity but rifling(friction) does.
twist rate does affect velocity, use your brain. they're inter-related

if more of the energy used to propel the round is diverted to imparting a faster spin on it..... well then that energy isn't going to be used to propel the round forward is it? this is exactly why rail guns aren't rifled. there are other ways to stabilize a round other than twisting it. see 120mm abrams APFSDS rounds.

>>30155098
i wasn't comparing an ar15 to a rail gun, i was showing you an obvious example where (lack of) rifling plays a role in speed. surely you aren't this stupid are you? stupid hoosier?

So, do I buy a suppressor before 41f, or start building an AR-10 and .300 Blackout upper? If I didn't have two trips scheduled for between now and Jul 13th I wouldn't have to decide, but prior financial obligations and all that.

it doesn't matter what we're talking about. we could be talking about a basketball being fired from a pvc cannon.

energy used to spin a bullet can't also be used to propel it with equal force in both realms. unless you can prove me wrong, i'm fairly certain you will lose FPS with faster twist rates, it's a no brainer. not sure why you can't figure out the basics of physics there...

>>30154531
Who are these two Caucasian nationalists?

>>30155145
But tank guns and rail guns don't use slower twist rates, the just don't use rifling at all.

But it takes equally as long to heat up, and will be less inclined to "wander" during that time. I've noticed it is quite difficult to get a bull-barrel that hot in a semi-automatic, unless you're mag dumping... but you'll get more mags out than with a standard barrel.

Midlength isn't milspec, so you'll want to be sure the company has earned a reputation for reliability, considering they're not drawing on the same half-decade of research that developed our milspec standards with reliability and function in mind.

That's sounds fun, go shooting. You can pretend you're killing looters at the super dome during Katrina

>>30154984
thats federal law. you just cant do it on a 4473 anyway, even though you have to be 21 to buy a lower.

people who say you should register a lower as a pistol on the 4473 are fucking morons.

>>30156211
>Not just buying a lower in a private sale

Suppose you'll probably lose the AR in a boating accident, anyway.

Asked this in /gqg/ but I remembered that /arg/ is full of anons from Michigan. What's a good camo for use in southern Michigan/Indiana? Flecktarn/tropic multicam come to mind but I could be totally off.

Is a stag arms model 2 with a 500$ optic a good buy for 600$

If you're feeding different ammo through manually and the round still gets caught in the chamber throat, it's either an out of spec barrel or upper receiver extension.

Either get some go/no go gauges and start a Theseus' Ship project out of this, or just skip right to getting a new upper assembly from a reputable manufacturer to guarantee you won't KB.

did you disassemble the bolt?

because you probably have the extractor spring reversed, buy a BCM extractor spring upgrade kit and install the spring the right way this time.

>>30155509

Is that a 20 inch barrel? Looks pretty sexy with the DD quad and A2 FSP

Need a2 stock source that isn't shit.

>>30156571

I have an A2 stock I'll sell you for like $5+ shipping. It's in basically perfect condition.

Comes with the butt plate screws and the spacer, but not with the plate or receiver extension.

You got a throwaway email? I might wanna do that

We used the shitty matech sight under the ACOG in the Army.

>>30156593

Sure do. See name field. I'll dig around in my parts boxes when I get home tonight and see if I have any other spare A2 shit left over from switching to an A1 on my .308.

>>30156633
Yup. Matech for everyone but the marines, who use the KAC BUIS.

>>30156643
Thanks m80.
The utg ones review really good so I'm gonna look into those as well

>>30156135
Half of Houston is underwater again, just like every single year. Around these parts if it rains hard for like 4 hours you can expect literal rivers running in the streets.

>>30156653

I don't know much about the various offerings, but it's built better than the Fulton Armory A1 I switched it out with. Heavy polymer with the proper foam fill and everything. I just needed a little shorter stock for eye relief with my ACOG.

At the end of the month, I have to move to Scottsdale, AZ (part of the Phoenix metro area). There is a heat advisory this week for temperatures possibly reaching as high as 117.

Fuck me.

Time to join Scottsdale Gun Club for air conditioned indoor rifle shooting, and free machine gun rental on your birthday.

Sup /arg/. Looking to build a new upper for my ar. Thinking a 14.5" barrel with a pinned muzzle device (so it counts as a 16") I can fit a surpressor over. Mid length piston system with M4 hand guards and low profile gas block. Split between 5.56 and .300 blackout. Mostly a fun gun with double duty as a HD gun. I live with other people so I don't know which caliber is safer in the event of a ND. I already have a spikes tactical lower. This will be my first time building an upper. Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

I like piston. No other reason really. Like I said, its for fun mostly, state doesn't allow a lot of rifle hunting (varmint only, which I don't care about) so it'll be a range toy that doubles as HD if I don't have my handgat handy.

>>30154382
i wanted to get a matching lower but i purchased the lantac upper...i was thinking about picking up a seekins or mega since i dont think lantac sells lowers.
