When I was ready to buy parts I was told to double check it with ya'll.

Gun show was pretty successful. My buddy got one of the new Gen 2 Aero lowers that comes with "accuwedge" type set screw.

I got some locally made (I really hope he wasn't bullshitting me) AR500 steel targets. I also got an armorers tool finally, and the real score, I found a surplus guy and bought 12 Gucci af Knights Armament ribbed rail covers for 10$. Brand new price for those rail covers would be around $180.

Are you kidding? The green followers tilt and lock up with like 1/2" deflection. The Magpul followers are a fantastic upgrade for aluminum GI mags.

>>30659389
Lancers are first pick, followed by Pmags, then USGI aluminums upgraded with magpul followers. It should be noted that D&H aluminum magazines are essentially USGI mags with upgraded followers.

>>30659459
If you can get QD sockets near your muzzle, endplate, and stock, then you can run a Magpul MS4 either single point for drills or dual point for carrying and hiking.

Ok for USGI mags here it is
Magpul/ Tan Follower > Green Follower> Black follower > NO magazine at all

The AR world has some idea that when a better revision of an item comes out that the previous models just turn to shit that very day. The tan and magpul followers will do just fine. The Green followers will do just fine. The black followers will work, I have a black follower mag I have been using for years just for shits and giggles. My greens still get used right along side my tans.

Another big issue to look at is the feed lips of the magazine. If they start going out of spec on the mag they wont have a good hold on the next round in the stack. I have seen more issues from fucked up feed lips than I have followers.

Pro tip, Buy a Pmag, take the dust cover off the mag and put it it your kit. The back tab that is protruding can also be used as a gauge to make sure your feed lips aren't out of spec . Do this and also clean your damn magazines and you wont have as many issues.

I've spent too fucking much on this sling:

>MS4 adapter
>Padded MS1 sling
>Midwest Industries low profile QD swivels
>Labor cost to have a luggage repair shop to professionally re-sew the swivel into the MS4 adapter

I probably have over $100 in this sling.

OK so you spent all that money on a set of Nods and haven't researched on your own what you need to get the max out of your investment?

Also the M952V's are good to go, had an issue with the first run of them, the IR LED burnt out quickly and then the White LED went not long after. Mine wasn't the only one with the issue either.

>>30660148
I have one. Round count only ~1,200 because it is more of a fireball making range toy and used to explain to newguns how "common sense" gun laws result in it being a pistol.

It shoots bullets when you pull the trigger.
Quadrail was cheap shit and started coming loose at maybe 300 rounds because they are apparently too cheap to spring for loctite.

Not terrible, not great. The only thing I don't like is the rail but I knew it was shit when I got it. Maybe I'll track down a better one and switch it out some day. That is the only thing they seemed to have fucked up though as the rest has worked surprisingly smoothly for the price.
If it's going to be your first or only ar, stack your shekles for a bcm or psa. If you just want to fuck around with it, Radical is decent enough.

Is the Burris MTAC a good choice for a 1-4x? I really just care about ruggedness. Clear gas and light gathering is a secondary concern.

I'll be getting the scope standalone and buying a separate QD mount, if that matters

>>30657879
I have the StrikeFire II and love it. The red/green feature is especially nice.

I prefer the standard A2 grip to the MOE, it's easier to reach the safety selector for me, but it may be different for you. Go grab a Colt with MOE gear at your LGS and see how it feels first.

CTR stock is a solid choice, but doesn't really offer anything over the M4 stock besides the friction lock.

I've had no problems with mine, but I don't abuse most of my mags (which includes these) so I've never so much as dropped one.

>>30661266
They work just as well as my Gen2s and IMO have better ergonomics

so until i apply for/receive cuck stamp, should i go with a 14.5"bbl with a pinned and welded comp?
or just go 16"bbl and replace the barrel later?

it'd be bcm either way.

>>30661364
16 then get it cut down to whatever length when ya get your stamp

>>30661364
>until I apply
Anon I have some bad news

Also just go 16" so you dont have to waste time pinning or fuck up your favorite muzzle device. 14.5" -> stamp is full meme

Made by D&H I believe. In any case, they're good mags. All of mine have the PSA logo on the floorplate too.

I'm talking about the followers tilting within the body of the magazine, idiot.

Noice.

That is a pretty sweet pro tip.
Lancers are the greatest of all time because of the steel feed lips. I need to get some more lancers.

Nah dude that is sick. The only complaint I have about my MS4 is that it isn't padded. Talk about custom.

Does sentry fit under mk8 rail?

>>30662801
Just look up the dimensions. I know the MK8's internal diameter is available.

>>30662801
I assumed it would,I haven't purchased it yet. I was heading over to their storefront in about a week and a half and was gonna pick it up then.

>>30662862
I did you dingus, the dimensions don't take into account the curvilinear cross section of the sentry vs the cross shaped mk8.let alone judging harmonics and barrel motion . So let anyone who owns both answer if they would be so kind

I'd be lying if I said I didn't like the PING that normal 3 prongs give off, otherwise I'd probably go trifecta.
I like the MK8 too, but I really like how slim my matrix charlie I already have on it is.
The NSR is comfy too, but not quite as nice, imo.
Also I'm kind of wanting to replicate the pistol in airsoft form, and the NSR is a lot cheaper/ easier to get for airsoft than a mk8

Yes that is.

Any recommendations for a relatively short muzzle device to bring a 14.5" barrel to 16"?

First priority is compensation and point of aim stability, then flash hiding. Recoil braking is only important in as much as it contributes to point of aim stability.

I'm stoked on my new Knights Armament rail covers. Got them for an absolute steal.
