i wish they'd not do this. i prefer 3 point stake crimping, easier to reload and less material lost when reaming the pocket out. you just remove 3 little points instead of a whole ring of metal.

Nah it's not about the lower, I have a buddy that wants an AR now and I might take that opportunity; I've always liked how the billet looks.

I don't think the MEGA set would fit this handguard; I'm keeping that. I know Geissele users have issues with their handguards on the MEGA upper because of the anti-rotation lock they use, and the Midwest uses a similar system. The Rainier set looks more open around the end of the upper, unlike the MEGA.

>>30405634

I'm pretty set on Rainier's Billet Ambi lower for my new build.

Any recommendations for a Billet upper to match it, or should I get the upper from them as well in the set?
I can't use MEGA's set as their upper doesn't fit right with anti-rotation handguards.

you should ask mega if they know for sure a geissele (or other anti rotation tab equipped hg) wont work.

also be warned most ambi lowers aren't really ambi when it comes to the bolt latch. like 99% of them are 'drop only' bolt catches. you can't lock the bolt back with the button. it's a release only.

I understand that, it's just nice that it's an option; and I like the way that lower works.

People have to file down their handguards to fit MEGA uppers. PLus, I'm not a big fan of their logo anyway.

>>30405962
You really only need a optic mount that will bridge the upper receiver and the rail, the rest is pretty simple to do with a BEV block. They WANT you to buy the "correct" tools, just like an OE car manufacture wants you to buy their special shit to service their components. There is always an innovative workaround.

It's all held together with Loctite 242 or Loctite blue, which can be a motherfucker with heat and age to take apart though.

The method I've used, however, is to press the detent pin down, insert a marker through the takedown pin holes in the lower, then push said marker out from the right with the end of the takedown pin. Shit just slides into place.

I always use needle nose pliers to hold the pin and to set it a bit in the detent. Once you've got it just a bit in there and it's steady use your other hand to press it down with the pin and push it in.

Not sure where you heard that, but it's wrong. It has to be designated as a heavy barrel by the manufacturer. In Maryland law, Heavy Barrel (or HBAR) is never actually defined, so whatever barrel a manufacturer designates as a Heavy Barrel/HBAR is a Heavy Barrel/HBAR. Has nothing to do with diameter.

Since you are building your rifle from a lower (making you the manufacturer), you can designate any barrel as your HBAR if you feel like playing that game. You just can't sell it to anyone in that form, but if it's for you, you are designating your own firearm as whatever you want to designate it as. This would comply with Maryland's law, because there is no actual definition of HBAR other than being designated as such from the manufacturer (which is now you).

I'm not old enough to manufacture my own (my grandfather "built" mine and then "sold" it to me as a complete rifle), which is why I don't do my own designation and actually have a Heavy Barrel.

>>30406547
You'll never find any definitive information on the subject other than interpretations of the law, because there isn't any definition. That's why the method I said in >>30406546 is completely valid (an FFL told me this method, and they recommended it). Whatever is designated by the manufacturer as an HBAR, is an HBAR in Maryland law. And assembling a rifle from a lower makes you the manufacturer.

Colt AR15's (and any clones) are banned in Maryland, except for Colt AR-15 Sporter HBAR's. Building an AR with a Heavy Barrel/HBAR is enough to define it as a clone/copycat of the non-banned Colt Sporter HBAR, making it legal here. If it didn't have a "HBAR" it would be banned. But there is no actual definition of what HBAR is.

Considering a V7 light weight ejection port door, ERGO slimline rail covers (solid type), and replacing the plastic trigger guard with a metal one.

>>30407200
You CAN mount it as-is, but it will be too low. They sell risers for under $20 in your choice of absolute cowitness (will line up directly with iron sights) or lower third cowitness (dot is a bit above but you can still use your sights through the optic).

Or you could spend as much on a QD mount as you did on the PA-MDS, but they come in the same options.

>>30407208
If it's a mil-spec forging they will literally all be the same. There are seriously only 3 forges in the US currently making AR lower blanks, they all use the same specs (metal, finish, etc), and they all use the same machines.

If you want top-notch, get a billet lower. Yes, they make 80% billet lowers. You (can) get a few cool extras that way, like integrated oversized trigger guard or ambi bolt/mag release.

As to "quality", the only thing that you won't be doing yourself that can impact the function of the rifle is an improperly broached magwell, and I've not heard of that being an issue on any of the 80%'s, even the cheapos.

STOP repeating this STUPID fucking bullshit. forgings are not machined and BARELY resemble a completed receiver part.

the final machining process varies between manufacturer to manufacturer so the tolerances will naturally vary. the methodology used to create the magwell void is also a very widely varied area and the methods vary from drilling out the corners and milling out the space to wire edming the whole thing out in one go.

let this fucking meme die.

I picked up the romeo 4b this weekend. People complain chink shit but it seems pretty damn nice. For 220$ with both stands, tool, cloth, cap, bikini cap, i would say it was a good deal.

depends on the upper. MEGA uppers and Noveske uppers require milling to fit because of the secondary tension screws.

Shit

Yo homie, I'm the one who called it chink shit. It's a rebranded Holosun with the edges beveled. As long as you don't pay SIG MSRP you should be ok.

I don't think he actually wanted it at first, but I noticed he's really started to enjoy having it lately (I think because I'm in love with it). The fucker is just too fun, and for being .308, she doesn't kick any worse than my WASR.

Wondering if it will take .308 PMAGs. He says he has problems if he loads more than 10 rounds, and I'm thinking the springs have gone to shit.

If the mag won't work, I suppose we can just cannibalize the new springs into the old mag bodies.

I guess I'll have to contact MI because the billet upper I have is from them. Maybe they'll know if it fits. Thanks m8

>>30408891

Kind of in the same boat as you, but I like the Geissele more due to it coming with all the shit you need to install it, and the overall ease of installation. Looks to be retard-proof, which is what I need as a new guy to AR's.

I also prefer the way the Geissele clamps into channels on the barrel nut, vs the MI one which relies only on torque and friction to stay on.

>>30409267

the decision (of exclusion at least) may have already been made for me since I have a billet upper I dont think the geissele rail is compatible

>I have a billet upper

... Uh.. I won't run into problems with BCM upper will I?

>>30409303

milspec uppers are fine, its billet uppers that the rail isnt compatible with from what ive read

>>30409264

Just looking at that picture: Geissele rail will fit bottom rifles upper. It MIGHT fit the top rifle.

looking to replace the top rifles quad rail

was looking at some pics people had on arfcom about this, seems like there is just too much material on the billet uppers so I'll ask MI but I'm probably going to end up with their gen3 SSM because they guarantee it works with their billet upper

There is a slot in most mil-spec forged and some billet uppers that allow for the secondary tension screw and mount to fit.

Some billet uppers do not have this area cut into the upper or it is too small and it will not fit.

Here is a pic of the area i'm talking about on a MK4.

So dremel it off and be happy.

This is as far as I can get with it. When ever I try to raise the end, it pops out

yeah, doesnt look like my upper has a big enough cut milled out there. Ill call MI tomorrow and go from there.

>>30409362

MUH PERFECT FINISH.

MUH AUTISM.

/s

but seriously, in the case of his upper if he did need to remove some material it would be very little.

What is your guys opinion on nitride cam pins?

The one in my BCG is looking torn up and needs a replacement. I was wondering if the increased hardness of the cam pin would beat up the carrier slot instead of the carrier beating up the cam pin as it is now.

>>30409412
no difference at all

>>30409367
musclefuck it

>>30409384

It won't fit. I just pulled off my MK8 to have a look and the tension screw mount is JUST too long and the screw itself would be right on the lip of the cutout on your upper.

>>30408695
you paid 9 dollars to have it shipped via usps? thats fucking the cosst of the god damn thing. fuck that.how do these places g et off thinking you need to charge 9-12 dollars for shipping of an item the size of 5 quarters stacked up. fuck that.

>>30409452

hey man, thanks for looking into that, much appreciated. MI it is then, dont really want to hacksaw my upper.

>>30407365

Huge favor...do you think pic related billet upper would fit? Can you do any measurements of width/depth of the recess with the rail off?

Really want to get a Mk8 Rail

>>30409502

Shame because this Geissele rail is really the tits. I'd almost say buy the rail and take the upper to a shop and have them fit it if it didn't work or just return it.

>>30409562

yeah im gonna mull it over until the sale on july 4th weekend, I'm ok with the idea with MI rail because I like their stuff a lot and it is considerably thinner than the G rail

Looks like it would fit just fine from looking at that pick but here are the specs:

1/4 inch long and 3/8 inch deep but it tapers. I'll snap a pic.
