i'm need to call a few local shops and see if anyone is selling just the lower, if not i'll have to buy online.

hi /arg/

finally got my 80% from anderson and I'm gonna make it into a pistol, thinking 1:7 twist and 10.5 barrel in .223

yay or nay

>>30550761
Go to 11.5". Big difference for just 1 more inch

>>30550696
Why do you want a KAC lower? Dat shield engraving got you?

I have one but I would only let it go for $600. I could sell it locally or on gunbroker for $650-$700

>>30550735
I'm going to get flamed but the colt 6720 OEM is a good start.

Or just buy the PSA premium 16" mid-length kit and get a lower receiver from literally anywhere. You will have $300 left over for mags and ammunition.

Are all uppers created equal?

http://www.monmouthreloading.com/shop/ar15-upper-receiver-aero-precision/?attribute_options=Assembled%3A+Black
$80 Aero upper

vs.

http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=XBCM4URM4&name=BCM+M4+Upper+Receiver+Assembly&groupid=2104
$120 BCM upper

I know that ideally they're all built to the same specs, but then the BCM upper description goes ahead and says:
>Diameter of the barrel extension is slightly undersized for a tighter fit to the barrel and a more accurate rifle.

Which confuses me and makes me think they're not all created equal.

>>30550002
Thanks for the feedback. Are you doing the "I can wait" option? I think for this first build I'd rather not wait the 8-10 weeks to get the trigger in so I'll go with the ACT.

One of the main differences between the MBT and ACT is that the MBT is a two-stage trigger, right?

>>30550080
What coating do you have on your cryptic BCG?

I noticed that one of the options listed here:
http://www.crypticcoatings.com/bolt-carrier-group-coatings/
is nickel boron.

I thought the NiB BCGs were made out of that material (instead of carpenter 158 steel)... would something like
http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=XAIMBCGEXOBDG
be decent?

I've been reading that NiB BCGs are easier to clean and resistant to carbon fouling, but if a full auto rated BCG like
http://palmettostatearmory.com/palmetto-state-armory-5-56-premium-full-auto-bolt-carrier-group-8779.html
is better, I'll get that.

>>30550828

That coating is the mystic silver
NiB is easier to clean than phosphate (like the second BCG you linked), but can stain and look shitty if that matters to you.
Mine >>30550603 (on the left) has stained a little, but doesn't look bad.
Full auto is just the cut at the back of the BCG pic for example
>Semi
>Different Semi
>Full auto
A full auto BCG won't make your AR do FA unless you have the rest of the parts.
I recommend a FA BCG (Which both you linked are) because the extra mass softens recoil a little and is more gudder

>he's a cuckhold
because his family said that the ar wasn't designed for civilian use, after he died?

>>30551014
yes, he did. but he isn't the one responsible for the AR15. stoner designed the AR-10 (poorly)

sullivan and fremont fixed a lot of stupid shit. an example would be the pants-on-head retarded exposed gas system on the left side of the AR10.

https://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_123/608768_.html

it was an unfinished hackjob and didn't sell very well. when sullivan and fremont designed the AR15 for armalite they addressed these shortcomings. stoner came up with the gas system but he wasn't that great of a designer overall so when you say he worked on the KAC i literally give zero shits because he wasn't that great to begin with.

dont conflate that with me hating ar's. it's probably my favorite action type of all time. it's ingenious.

But I want to try building an AR, and I mean more than just buying a completed up and completed lower

>>30551137
>you mean the gas system i'm constantly raving about
it's a good system, but the gun is more than the gas system. all of the things you actually like about the gun were designed by fremont and sullivan. not stoner.

>>30551151
mediocre idea.

>>30550578
there's literally nothing wrong with it

>>30551154
deal but post pics

>>30551166
ok but i still want the kac.
if jim sullivan ever releases a constant recoil ar-15 compatible lower, i'll jump on that

>>30551204
so hit up armwest and find out...

they did a lot more than just constant recoil. they redesigned the cam track and the gas rings as well. there's also a built in anti-bounce system in the tail of the carrier.

i hope that dude lives long enough to market his shit. he is literally the real MVP when it comes to AR's. Him dying is going to be more of a loss than Stoner. He is the father of the AR15 and literally knows everything about them.

Ok
So I'm looking at PSA to make a mock up build and everything is temporarily out of stock

you say they fixed a lot of stupid shit but only list the gas system which really was an easy fix.

URX 3.1 is STILL one of the sexiest rails I've ever seen. I would like one but it feels wrong to put it on anything other than KAC receivers

>>30550659

Hnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggg

>>30551229
Can you redpill me on what KAC did to improve the AR15

Its my understanding that they're BCG is different and they have different gas systems than no SR15s

>>30551222
like i said, when mr.sullivar releases a lower, i'll buy it but as of now, the kac lower is the best and i like the connection.

obviously i already have an ar-15 lower and that is a product of the stoner team but i also was something new and cool and the kac fits that bill.

>>30551268
they sealed up the gas system to prevent leaks and changed the geometry of the bolt.

Seems kind of odd to recommend that site to build an ar.
It has a very limited selection with so much out of stock

>>30551229
the ar15 was completely redesigned from the ar10 you numbskull. bob fremont and jim sullivan optimized the gun tremendously, that's why it's still in use today.

>>30551268
the KAC rifle is a meme, stoner isn't who designed the ar15 so why would they have him come work on theirs? it was a marketing ploy.

R8 my /pol/ copypasta. I'm revising it until its perfect.


If you need a good gun for home defense/and or dangerous chimpouts, your best bet is an AR15.

You should build your AR15, as you save money doing this while getting better parts than most non custom priced ARs.

16" is the legal minimum barrel length to keep it considered a rifle, and not a pistol(IE, no stock allowed and if you want one you have to register the rifle as an SBR through NFA paperwork and a 200$ tax stamp)

16" what I recommend for a first build.

Mid Length Gas system is best for a 16" AR.

PSA, BCM, Daniel Defense, Noveske, Midwest Industries, Aero, KAC, LMT, Rainer Arms, and VLTOR are good companies for building.

>which ones should I add?

Colt, Daniel Defense, S&W, and LWRC are good companies for buying complete ARs, however you are going to pay more for this convienice, and some of these have out of date features, such as carbine length gas systems on 16" rifles.

>which other companies should I add?

You should avoid Red Barn, Radical FireArms, and PSA PTAC.

>any objections?

It is generally a good idea to stick to "Mil-spec" guidelines, or above when building an AR. Everything I recomend will meet or surpass these.

It is a good idea to have 500 rounds of quality, brass case ammo in storage that isn't M855.

M193 is the best ammo to stockpile.

1/7 or 1/8 barrel twists is the best.

Only buy Magpul mags, Lancer L5 mags, or GI mags with Magpul followers.(shitty mags are the #1 reason a rifle is unreliable)

I personally recommend that those new to the platform buy a Complete Upper, and a Complete Lower from any of the companies I recomended, they will all be interchangeable.

Don't worry about fancy shit, free floating a rifle right away isn't needed, and fancy optics aren't required, but both are nice.


If you plan on using this rifle for defense, a weapon mounted light is 100% necessary.

Bad things happen at night.

>>30551294
Get a 16" mid length.

they worked for armalite to redesign the stoner gun. sullivan also worked on the ar10. he's responsible for putting the gas system in a much smarter place than on the side of the goddamn gun. so even sullivan is responsible for the AR10's final configuration before falling into obscurity.

mfw people don't know the history of the AR in ARG at all.

the AR10 as you all know it, is a sullivan designed gun. the original AR10 barely resembles it and was a commercial failure that only had 1 or 2 militaries adopt it.

um what? nearly all of the changes up through vietnam until now were a result of sullivan and fremont's work. NOT stoner's. he literally has nothing to do with the AR's we know and love. only that hideous ugly piece of shit from the 50s

>>30550603
Thank you for the pic and explaining what exactly a full auto BCG means. I don't think the aesthetics of staining will bother me too much.

Also your ARs >>30550603 are purdy. 16 and 10.5?

Your upper receiver looks non-generic. Thoughts on >>30550830

Notably, not asking about completed uppers. I realize those are not all created equal because barrel quality etc is non-standard.

Part 1/2

If you need a gun for home defense/and or dangerous happenings, your best bet is an AR15.
Let’s talk about why the AR15 is the BEST option for a SHTF scenario.
The AR15 is the weapon of choice for the US Military and most, if not all US Police forces.
The ammunition (5.56/.223) is extremely common with Every US community, USMIL/POLICE included, and is an accurate, hard hitting round. It is also light, and inexpensive.
The AR15 itself is a truly remarkable design, and is utterly reliable if manufactured correctly. The famed “AR15 is unreliable” saying goes as far back to Vietnam, where the US government attempted to use Surplus 30-06 powder in early M193 ammunition. This is very wrong, and lead to early M16s not working properly. If the Government had followed the suggested power recommendation, the reputation never would have materialized.
Let’s talk a bit about the AR15s obvious competitor, the AK. The Russians designed a very nice rifle with the AK47, and further improved it into the AKM. But you have to understand that Russia is not allowed to export AKMs to the US anymore, and modern AKs for sale in the US are either Eastern European parts kits (of dubious quality) or brand new US made AKs (of EXTREMLY dubious quality).
Not to mention the fact that the AK is no more reliable than the AR15 in the first place, and its ammunition, the 7.62x39 is a rather anemic cartridge past 300 yards, and has the ballistics of a bowling ball. The AK and its Ammunition is also not used by any sizable US Police Forces, and almost all 7.62x39 ammunition is manufactured overseas, much of it IN RUSSIA, you can see issues with the availability of spare parts and ammunition in a crisis.
I am not suggesting the AK is a bad platform, merely that it is not the best choice for a “Life and Liberty” gun.

Now lets talk about how to actually get an AR15.

Did you get your Gibbz upper ordered yet? Anxious to see your build.....or did I mix you up with someone else?

>>30551986
No pics of the pocket but it's not exactly perfect, some tool marks here and there but it's functional and the hammer and trigger pins are perfect. I used the easy jig and associated tool kit, took me pretty much all day but I also spent a lot of time getting my shitty LPK to fit just right. Had to do some hand fitting with the bolt catch and safety lever, which is unusual.

>>30552028
Dass pretty, mang.

I'm still set on my 20" rifle gas build, but dammit, you're making me noodle with the idea of a sig brace pistol instead...

Re-asking this question. If it's a stupid question, let me know and I'll try to fix it.

Are all uppers created equal?

http://www.monmouthreloading.com/shop/ar15-upper-receiver-aero-precision/?attribute_options=Assembled%3A+Black
$80 Aero upper

vs.

http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=XBCM4URM4&name=BCM+M4+Upper+Receiver+Assembly&groupid=2104
$120 BCM upper

I know that ideally they're all built to the same specs, but then the BCM upper description goes ahead and says:
>Diameter of the barrel extension is slightly undersized for a tighter fit to the barrel and a more accurate rifle.

Which confuses me and makes me think they're not all created equal.

A little, I've drilled holes in metal a handful of times, used a lathe a couple times. and done hand fitting and filing probably dozens of times if not more. The easy jig is pretty easy to use though, and if you follow the directions you won't have a problem.

putting in the bolt catch and the thing wont come up high enough to block the bottom of the bolt face which is where I think they are supposed to come in contact. anyone seen this problem before? the detent fits all the way in hole, lower is milspec, I dont know if the upper is. this is my first AR so I dont know practically anything....

Doubt it, they sell them in matched sets. They also jacked their prices up so you are really better off buying something else that is similar.

They used to be $300 for a set, now they are $500. You are better off buying a complete upper from them or just getting something else.

The problem is the bolt catch is out of spec, the "arm" that contacts the detent is too thick and doesn't provide enough room between the catch and the lower to move properly.

Well, I saw Bushmaster, Colt, S&W, Ruger, and well there was plenty of brands I've never heard, honestly, and I was only there for a short time and do not recall. How the hell can so many companies try to make the same damn thing?

Yo booty

I hate it. It's super chunky and the rubberized texture sticks on my t-shirt

>>30553154
kill yourself.

>>30553144
buy with other things like on brownells or midway. by themselves, shipping makes it not worth it.
i do remember aero precision recently having a sale on their melonited gastubes. worth a look

like a dollar a piece. you might be tempered to buy one from ebay because of free shipping, but dont. a lot of those crush washer they sell are shit- this is coming from first hand experience

So my 20" AR is heavier than my AK despite having no accessories on it.

Any idea why that is or could it just "feel" heavier because the 20" barrel puts the weight further out?

>>30553310
Gotcha. Thx

>>30553311
Checked

Put them on scales and see

>>30553311

Weigh that shit dogg

Back to my old A1 grip while I wait for a bcm

>>30553311
what barrel profile?

>>30553119
AR has ergo 4045, great fit for my sasquatch hands
SCAR has ergo scar grip. Wish it was bigger. It's still good

I aeroshell armorers grease okay for use on the buffer spring to quiet it down?
