>sure glad I spent that extra $600 on a rail that none of my accessories can attach to
Oh yeah.
Who else /acog/ here?
>>30389405
worth the price? Looking into getting my first good optics but a 1x red dot + magnifier would be more flexible than an acog
>>30389368
The worst they can do is call you a poor fag. Let the salt roll off your back, this place gets much better when you do

>>30389346
GUCCI
>>30389405
Like 50% of us
>>30389412
magnifiers were alright once upon a time, but the advances in variable power optics have rendered them pretty much useless.
>>30389413
Trijicon or kys
>>30389346
GUCCI
>>30389346
Most gucci
>>30389405
Yes.
>>30389412
I definitely would not recommend dot/magnifier combo. Dot gets huge, is heavy, takes up FOV ect...
I would recommend an ACOG. It's highly useful even at close range
should I get a t-2 or an acog? I rarely shoot past 100 yards
>>30389453
MRO
>>30389460
Yeah, but I think that the t-2 is a better optic
clarity and durability look better
Is this a decent sight? I can get it for like 25 bucks.
For that matter, is blackhawk a reputable brand?

Do you ever want to shoot further? Do you want to look like an elitist on a outdated Chinese opium den message board?
new to /arg/
one question
is 300BLK a meme? I want to build myself an AR mainly to shoot it supressed. 5.56 or go for a 300BLK?
>>30389468
sounds like you've already made up your mind, but I'd still vote for MRO
>>30389478
kys
>>30389478
I mean honestly acogs seem outdated compared to the variable power optics available now

Hey there guys, just posting this stuff one last time to ensure you guys think everything looks ok for making an 80 lower. Also, what kind of drilling fluid should I use? Will WD40 work ok?
>range trip with work buds
>just found out about magpul brace sbr/pistol workaround
My find is fucking blown, gents.
Latest pic I've got. Light has come off recently, and I've re situated the VFG, next up will be a GG&G short grip as this KAC it too damn thin.
>>30389483
No its not a meme and has practical applications.
>>30389489
Durability and glass quality with a very nice FOV never really gets outdated.
>>30389490
>55.6
>>30389490
why a 5.56? I constantly read that 300BLK is supposed to be superior if you shoot supressed on /k/
>>30389506
why'd you ditch the light
anyone have an accupower
>>30389523
Don't listen to him.
.300Blk is awesome when supressed, got a chance to shoot subs out of one last week.
>>30389528
no.
>>30389486
Why u be like this ? U used to be a good trip fag.
>>30389489
It is an old design but it works. The ar15 family of weapons is an old design but we still use it.
>there are people in this thread RIGHT NOW that still use their A2 grip
Switching that grip out for a $20 replacement was the best thing I've ever done holy fucking shit. No more strain on the wrist. Now I can stop feeling like my tendons are being stretched to infinity.
>>30389405
AHOY!
>>30389539
its just memes m8, I had an aimpoint for a while anyways
>>30389524
It was heavy for one, I love the light but the pressure pad setup sucks. I was using some pressure pad kit to mount it to the rails and it fell off and I'm just like "No, I can't trust this". So I'm going back to just the standard tail cap I just haven't had time to fiddle with it to get all the positioning right. Plus with the GG&G grip I'd rather remount it once I have that in so I know I'm comfortable with the entire setup. I may get one of the those drop down rail attachements too. So I can grip the VFG with my left hand and reach under the handguard with my thumb to activate the tail cap.

I don't light up with lighters anyways.
>>30389597
1-4 ja. I fucked around with a strike eagle (1-6x I know). Seemed nice but I wasn't crazy about the reticle. My cousin has the Bushnell 1-4x that's nice but has a similar reticle as the strike eagle.
>>30389617
Oh.
What do you use, a blowtorch?
>>30389627
arent you supposed to light cigars with matches so you dont get gas flavor into the tobacco
>>30389627
Jim you're giving me brain diabetes
I buy Cigars that are so gucci they come with complementary matches.
NEW TRIGGER
MORE GREEN MAGS
WHO [WHYCAN'TISTOPPUTTINGONEYINTOTHISFUCKINGRIFLE] HERE?
>>30389612
Go to a store and try them both out. I still might get a variable for certain things on this rifle.
GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN
>>30389636
Yeah I just wanted to shitpost a bit.
Same with anything, matches are superior for flavor.
>>30389612
Why do you want them? What draws you to the both of them? We can help but we need to know what you are looking for and why you are looking towards one specific model of optic vs a massive field of different contenders
>>30389642
Thats me, light coming in today and trigger that I still need to order.
Plus a new CH
>>30389580
It's .08" below absolute
>>30389583
Yes but it's too low with my sopmod enhanced stock, lines up perfectly with my ctr stock.
>>30389653
what light and CH you buy? answer better be SF m600 and BCM mod4
>>30389636
Cedar spills are best, but matches (wood) or a torch are good too.
>>30389660
just cut a chunk out of your cheek, youll be fine
>>30389666
>cedar lit cigar

>>30389653
I'm still thinking about a 18 inch barrel to swap back and forth if I want to do some hybrid SPR bullshit. Thankfully switching barrels takes a minute.
>>30389346
Currently in the process of painting mine
>>30389639
Dayum.
I rarely smoke, I light candles and bonfires pretty often, and started a matchbook collection a while back. So now I started collecting lighters.
>>30389648
Right now I have an eokek but after having owned it for a while I want to upgrade to something that lets me go out a little farther. Plus red dots kind of suck in general when it's bright out.
My main decision is between variable / fixed power but if I go with fixed I'll probably get an acog because I'm very familiar with them and like them.
Is glue a meme?
>>30389639
What brands?
>>30389660
Try and sell it to someone im with a PA MD, they absolute cowitness with the 660HK
>>30389696
If you are well versed in acogs I would speak of them. So onto the point of variables. Go to a cabelas or bass pro and check them out. Some of them are not true 1 power. Figure out if you like first or second focal plane and just make your call. Personally I would go with the Acog of I were you. Simply because I like to take the sure thing of what I know rather than try out something unknown, especially when it comes out to the tune of a grand plus
>>30389612
Spectre OS4 + side mounted red dot desu
>>30389789
I'm trying to sell it to anyone with $100, gonna list it when i get the tall mount.

what are they?

>>30389905
Midway USA house brand (So roughly PTAC tier quality) and Anderson lowers.
But they are visually free of defects, and I'm going to test fire them and check that all the parts are on straight.
Paid $378 each for upper/lower/build kit/bcg/etc...
>>30389914
If you only knew about the 80%'s
>>30389951
but i do. that makes it a lot easier to build and sell them without ramifications but the FBI/ATF would still have a word with you if they ever caught wind of your scheme
>>30389951

Streamlight Rail Mount, new product.
I will be getting a BCM CH.
>>30389676
My next build will be 18"
>>30389779
See above
>>30389969
$100 discount on that item, and a 20% off cupon for my whole order. There was a limit of two per customer and I was low on cash anyway.
$328 for the upper including bcg/ch, lower build kit including stock/buffer parts.
Anderson lowers were $50 local.
Probably the best deal I have ever seen on an AR build without getting used shit for free.
>>30389960
Fuck em' it's two rifles that I bought and am now reselling, not like I'm selling the full retard converts.
>>30389984
You could just leave it, mine has never bothered me. If you really feel the need to, see if you can get one of those zips through the circle cuts under the pic rail slots and then back under the switch through a pic rail slot
>streamlight
wew lad. id also turn your mount around so it sits closer to the bore not hanging off the side, it will center the weight better.
>>30390010
I feel you, it shouldn't be a problem.
>Under 18 U.S.C. 921 (a)(21)(A), the term “engaged in the business” means— as applied to a manufacturer of firearms, a person who devotes time, attention, and labor to manufacturing firearms as a regular course of trade or business with the principal objective of livelihood and profit through the sale or distribution of the firearms manufactured.
>regular course of trade
that's where I think you'd be fine, two doesn't count as "regular"
>>30390045
>two doesn't count as "regular"
Agreed, and I didn't manufacture them, I used serialized stripped liwers.
>>30390045
I had to force myself to even buy a weapon light in the first place.
Spending twice as much on a surefire was a no, although I do understand they are better.
I did do some cord control
>>30389824
Because they can haggle down to $75

It's not a meme. People, usually poor people, will tell you it is because
>hurr durr x39 clone
>durr hurr $0.60+ per round
even though neither of those are really true
.300blk is great for suppressing.
If I wanted to build and AR as cheap as possible, without a lower receiver, what are my options?
And I mean cheap as possible
>>30389523
Because he's a moron.
>also, 55.6
Subsonic .300blk from a 16" barrel with a muzzle brake is quieter than any 5.56 load through a good suppressor on a 16" barrel, and subsonic .300blk through a 16" barrel with a good suppressor is well below hearing safe.
>>30389346
Found some pmc bronze .223 for cheap. Is it worth a damn?
>>30390152
It's the most basic of basic-bitch commercial-spec .223rem loads, but it's decent.
>>30390152
I have some
It's reliable so far and works as plinking ammo, not exceptionally accurate or high velocity.
Like very low velocity so this definitely isn't a SHTF load.

Google boot blousing bands. Little elastic bands with wools on them. Work pretty well on rails.
>>30390322
I do too, I like it a lot better than its last iteration, pic related. Looks like PA got kill flashes in for their 3x prisms finally. So I think I'm getting that and the GG&G short grip.
Here >>30389506 is what it currently looks like. I feel like I should have just stuck as close to milspec as possible in the beginning now. For some reason it gives me a craving for a Beretta M9.

>>30390425
eBay if you look at the location and feedback
Any 80% lower kit cheaper than this: http://www.andersonrifles.com/product/80-jig-with-anodized-80-lower-receiver/
Preferably with drill bits since buying drill bits on their own would increase the price. This one is out of stock (I was about to pull the trigger when there was one left in stock but I wasn't fast enough.)
>>30390266
I put a ta33 w/o rmr on a tavor, suits it well. Should on the aug as well, but I could see you wanting something different.

>>30390442
What's a good price for the m600 and switch?
>>30389483
300blk is basically a 7.62x39 that works well in an AR. Basically just a necked up 223 case with a .308 bullet on top. Slightly better ballistics than an AK and carries more energy at distance than a .223. It suppresses very well and was designed to partially replace use of subsonic 9mm
>>30390442

God help my wallet.
On a scale of 0 to 10, how bad is it? I have magpul 30 rounders, I just think the 20 rounder is more aesthetic. Also have a SPARC II in the mail.. thoughts?
>>30390623
It's a Gen2 Magpul mag. 30 rounds. I do have a few 10/30 round magazines though.
>>30390638
ARs can be purchased in California. I don't know where this misconception started. They are neutered, but purchasable. For the bullet button I have a small magnet I placed in the recess, that more or less functions like a regular mag release.
>>30390731
20 rounders are fine if you are a bench shooter, or otherwise just doing any long range shooting
I don't believe that bullshit about being "easier to maneuver in a vehicle" with respect to 20 vs 30 round AR mags. Though your piece doesn't look like it's designed for going in and out of vehicles easily anyway, so that point is moot.
>>30390747
Another picture
>>30390747
Wait, how the hell did you get an uncucked Gen2 30 round Magpul into commiefornia?
Haven't 10+ rounders been banned there since 1989?
>>30390747
>>30390767
What does a 10 round AR mag look like anyways, never seen anything lower than twenty
I'd imagine it looks like a tiny stump out of the magazine well

>>30390963
It's like Elmer Fudd.
Usually red necks that think Weatherby, browning, Remington, Winchester, are the epitome of firearms design, and if you need a standard capacity magazine, then you can't shoot well.
They also usually dislike 5.56 and the AR for various reasons; Veitnam, nog down bower, etc
>>30390963
Fudd: Slang term for a "casual" gun owner; eg; a person who typically only owns guns for hunting or shotgun sports and does not truly believe in the true premise of the second amendment or self defence or the more modern target shooting competitions.

Grip is meh, but if it suits you it suits you.
Are those airshit Troy knockoff sights? Rear looks wrong.
Handguard is good but why do you have rail sections on it with nothing on them?
If that's the stock I think it is (Magpul MOE fixed) it's dumb looking but functional
Over all, 6.5/10. Functional but basic-bitch, a couple choices I wouldn't have made, possibly shit-tier sights

>>30391124
Did you shave off the bottom of your SL stock?
Is that the factory barrel profile of most M&P15s?
In all seriousness you should take a rotary cut-off tool to that A2 sight and get a flip up front BUS. It would look good and clean up your sight picture. I promise. I'm sure you can get some enamel to paint over the bare metal.

>>30391300
YEAAAAAAAAA
>>30391297
It was never cool.
>>30391305
I like the sharp edges; forged ones are too "curvy" for me. I can deal with the lower being forged, but I think billet uppers look a lot better.
The flashlight (and mount that came with it) was an el cheapo buy to just test the waters and see if I actually like having a flashlight. I do, so now I'll probably get a better one.
>>30391314
So $350-400, i fuck up everything i own so i don'thave anything to trade.
Thanks m8
>>30391266
That pa or vortex will be after the rail for me. Can't wait to shoot magnified.

Is there any way to get a DBAL to sit lower?
>>30391347
How about neither? Save up 150 more and buy an aimpoint.
I'll never get why people are willing to drop 100-200 on shit optics instead of just being patient and saving up for a good one.
Patience is a fucking virtue. Don't blow your money on cheap shit that isn't going to hold up nearly as long as good quality shit.
>>30391347
Buy a PA-MDS or a Vortex Sparc II (PA-MDS is a good bit better, I just got the Vortex because of aesthetics).

Don't buy a SPARC II.
I was incredibly nonplussed by mine for the price. Better off saving your cash and buying a proper Aimpoint.
It's only getting used on a friends SCAR right now until they buy a proper optic, then I'll probably stuff it on my AK or something.
>>30391374
In all fairness magnifiers do suck, at least the Aimpoint and EOTech labeled 3x magnifiers I've had or tried.
>>30391370
What hand guard is that?
>>30391333
From a functional standpoint, your upgrades should be; Light, trigger, optic, (muzzle device)
In that order.
Getting a nice upper will only add weight and cost without doing a single thing for performance.
Just a thought
>>30391336
I guess you could buy a slim rail for ~$220 on ebay and a B5 ~$80 on gunbroker, and trade.

>>30391361

Most of /k/ is permanently in a state of "Dressed up and nowhere to go" but the austists in /arg/ when it comes to flashlights on the front of their guns take the fucking cake.
What other thread do you see people even CONSIDERING a "flashlight" on the front of their gun as even bordering-on-useful? None of them. It's purely a product of echochamber circlejerking within the worst threads on /k/

Interested, but I'm actually moving to a new city as of next week. Between address change and ~$4k in misc relocation expenses, now isn't a good time.

>>30391569
you could use a real spotlight for that, though. A real one. 1 million candles. For 1/4th the price. That doesn't make your gun more front-heavy.
Flashlights have less to do with "function" on a rifle than anime girl keychains dangling from the buttstock or handgrip.
>>30391546
Are you new to firearms? Weapon lights have been useful, desired, produced and bought for decades on end. Companies like Surefire don't stay in business because their tools are useless.
If you enjoy low light shooting without night vision, a flashlight is a must. If you have a firearm that's main purpose is shooting someone who has broken into your house or is on your property, a weapon light is highly advisable. This is not even in the realm of tacticool, I sleep in my ballistic plates style faggotry. Weapon lights are simple and extremely useful tools.
Weapon lights also take a beating. Experience has proven folks like surefire and streamlight know what they are doing when it comes to protecting the internals and hard-proofing them. A billion dead chicom LED lights can attest to that.

there's also less shit influencing the barrel because of the stock design. its pretty fun. i enjoy shooting long distances with 'shitty' guns because it makes me a better shooter
>>30391706
I care about autists and shills telling people that it takes a functional priority over better sights, trigger, foregrips, and anything else that you will be useful *every time* you shoot the gun.

>>30391695
Yeah I am. Like I said optics are nice and all, and I have used them before. I just prefer shooting with irons. There is only one range within decent driving range that I can shoot out 500m but I don't really have the chance to get out that often. My parents own land and that is usually where I go to shoot but 300 is about the farthest distance I can get with a clear path. But I personally believe using irons makes you focus on the basic fundamentals a little more
>>30391722

because even the fucking suggestion that a light takes functional precedence over triggers, optics, and a better muzzle break is about the most fucking retarded (but /arg/-typical) thing you can tell someone asking for advice on how to improve their gun.
I would have left it at that, but you fucking spergs... you FUCKING SPERGS rushed in to defend his honor like a bunch of autistic white knights.
I mean, holy fuck, look at you fucking idiots are defending -- that your never-gonna-get-used $200 piece of shit takes priority over a better trigger and optic?
Holy. Fuck.

>>30391774
>I mean, holy fuck, look at you fucking idiots are defending -- that your never-gonna-get-used $200 piece of shit takes priority over a better trigger and optic?
I agree with you, but at the same time I can see where people are coming from if they use their gun as a bedside rifle. Kinda important for that use. This is coming from someone who doesn't use mine for that and really don't have much if any use for a light on my rifle and therefore don't have one on it.
>pic related ;)
>>30391774

I mean the red's not too big of a deal, you'll probably want to sight it in at dusk. The real negative that you haven't named is the lack of slaved lasers. That's the only real downside of the model you got in my opinion.

I view expensive flashlights kind of like I view quick release bumpers and tow hooks on Honda's- unless you're actually taking it to the track and racing it, just rice.
But getting an 'ok' light if you're gonna use your rifle as a bedside is a good idea. But by 'ok' I mean it just has to work. That's it. You could literally duct tape a $5 Walmart flashlight to your rifle, and unless shooting at night is part of your job or you're hunting hogs or something like that, it'll do its job - make it so you can tell who you're about to shoot.

Yeah it's really not a big deal, just would have like the slaved lasers + illumination. At any rate, it's more than good enough until I've actually got some good NVGs, at which time I can upgrade if I really feel the need.

If you have a light on your rifle, I assume you're going to use it in a serious/HD/HLD/ general fighting capacity.
What problem does anyone have with saying that the Walmart light and mount should be upgraded to something better before a billet upper?

>why is the LWH a POS?
First, coverage. Uses the same shape and size as the PASGT. Which means it'll hit the back of your neck and the ear flaps preclude even most low-pro earmuffs.
Second, the suspension. I'm assuming you're not fully retarded and got the pad suspension, which is a hell of a step up from the leather sweatband and webbing suspension (which is still in widespread use in the USMC), but it's inferior in every way to the pads in the ACH/MICH. No gel=no shock absorption (the #1 reason why Marines suffer traumatic head injury 3000% more frequently than Soldiers), they breathe worse because they're backed with plain old styrofoam, and they deteriorate faster because they're backed with plain old styrofoam. Also the chinstrap is proprietary and inferior to even the crappy issued ACH chinstrap much less the aftermarket H-nape or X-nape straps (I recommend X-nape if you're using monoculars as they prevent more side-side motion).
Third, due to the lip of the brim, 3-hole NVG mounts/shrouds do not work with it. You're stuck with the 1-hole traditional mount, which is less secure and heavier than the polymer 3-hole shroud while presenting an easy channel for bullets front dead center of your forehead. While some have been retrofitted with trimmed 3-hole mounts, they're both mounted too high and the structural integrity of the mount is compromised.
Fourth, weight. It's "light weight" only in comparison to its predecessor, the PASGT. It's still significantly heavier than the ACH/MICH2000
