G2g but don't get a PTAC upper or a goddamn fixed sight stainless barrel upper.

Check out Hardened Arms if you're willing to try something new.

One day I'll have enough money to buy a rifle and cool shit for it. One day.

Just can't decide what I want to get first. AR, AK or some kind of battle rifle.

I know dad will laugh at me if I get anything smaller than a 7.52x51 NATO but he doesn't seem to understand how physics works sometimes.

The mags you get are not issued by armorers, they are issued by the unit supply to each individual solider. The soldier is responsible for keeping them after that point. The only accountability there is for them is "do you have 7 magazines?" And that's it. Exchanging the bad ones is simply curb stomping it and turning it into supply.

I number my personal mags and none of my issued ones. It makes it easier accounting for your stuff.

>get warden
>then buy suppressor and use Warden for 9 months while you wait for your stamp to come back

Also, what get? The SFMB seems nice, reduces recoild, and is more aesthetic. But with the Warden I'm not trying to throw fireballs. Especially since most of my shooting during the fall and winter is at or after dusk so I'm kind of leaning toward the SF3P right now.

Thinking about going quiet with my AR. What do you guys recommend for muzzle devices? Not too worried about price looking for best performance. Also using a 16" barrel DI AR non adjustable gas block. Probably run the raptor bone charging handle.

>>31489033
For quiet? A suppressor. For a less concussive muzzle flash, then get a flash hider, not a brake or comp.

>>31489042
Yeah I'm asking what brands do you guys have and recommend. For audible reduction.

>>31489025
Depends on build and whether or not you're actually going to get a suppressor.

If you're not getting one any time soon or you have an SBR/pistol, get the flash hider.

If you're absolutely 100% getting a suppressor, or you have a 16" barrel, get a muzzle brake. The brakes are recommended for suppressors because they act as a secondary baffle with the can mounted.

SF3P will reduce flash better for a short barrel and Warden doesn't give a shit about it.

>>31489071
16" and suppressor someday but I'm not in a big rush. I just don't want to be blinded by my own muzzle flash.

>>31489085
Get SF3P now then, it will accomplish more of what you want to do. You will have about 9 months to source an SFMB once you put money on a can.

>>31489102
Yeah, that's kind of where I'm leaning right now. I know the SFMB is more aesthetic, but for what I want it seems to serve more purpose.

Murphy seems to be riding your cock hard for the grave, man.

I am getting a 500$ check from my community college for "being a good student." I want an AR. How feasible is it to build a simple 16" rifle with $500?

>>31489354
you can do it for $500 in parts, but you'll need about $80-$100 in tools assuming you dont own anything already

>>31489362
I assume thats 500 in parts. I am only 19, and in iowa I cant buy a stripped lower without a handgun licence. i have metal working stuff, how much work is it to mill a lower?

Do able it will be pushing your budget but do able. Maybe hold out until Columbus Day and see if PSA will have a sale going on. See if someone in your family can buy the lower for you and gift it to you. I don't know what your state laws are about that but look into it. Milling an 80% is more hassle than it's worth as opposed to buying a stripped forged lower.

>>31489352
To be entirely honest the breakup wasn't so bad, it's just the first time in my life I didn't see it coming and didn't know how to deal with it.

She didn't cheat, but I lost faith and she was being secretive so I still know its better that it ended. We're both seeing different people now and she seems happy, that's what's important.

Got HPV from a girl my junior year in HS I met at the local college. I knew she was a skank but yknow, pussy. Can't figure out exactly where the simplex is from


I don't do well single, I need someone to validate me at all times :^)

>>31489419
ok. my dad has his CC and maybe I can get him to buy me a stripped lower from brownells or my lgs.

>>31489354
You can get a complete Aero middy for $579 off Brownells right now if you're willing to spend slightly more in order to do slightly less.

That said, feasible, but as mentioned, the tool cost will probably put you in the same ballpark or higher.

That would be a good call, my dad bought me a pistol as a gift when I was 18 and in Arkansas you can gift your child a hand gun so check state laws and find out. Because Anderson lowers go for about 75 at decent gun stores and that gives you roughly 400 to play with to build the rest of it. I understand you are on a limited budget but steer clear of PTAC the next line up is the freedom series which isn't too bad from what ive heard. Check out Ak operators Union on YouTube if you haven't already they have tested some PSA rifles and you can get an idea about the longevity of them from there. Best of luck in your build.

I'm building an AK and planning to do a slight refresh on my AR upper once I'm done with it. Right now I'm running a 16" Gov profile barrel with a DD Omega 9.0 and an A2 FSB.

What are some good options for lightweight 12-13" rails to replace this setup with and drop some weight off the front end? I don't want to rebarrel just yet, but I'll probably be swapping out the gas block instead of just cutting down the FSB. Currently I'm looking at the MI 13" M-LOK Gen 3, the Bootleg Picmod 13", the Geissele SMR Mk. 8 M-LOK, the Manticore Arms Transformer Rail, and possibly whatever equivalent rail Centurion Arms currently has. As much as I like keymod, right now all of my accessories are picatinny or M-LOK, so I'd prefer to stick with those options.

Shitty photo, but the most recent I have.

What's a good spare parts kit? wouldn't want to be in the field and lose a pin.

>>31488921
It's not like 3000 people are lurking here...or are they?

>>31489513
Just one for now. The 14.7" is pinned with an A2 so I'm going to buy a 14.5" barrel down the road when I pick up a RIS II FSB and then I'll get another SF md.

Gotcha that will be good because PSA goes Hard as fuck on the holiday sales. Between now and then I put a few bucks away when you can to help plus up on that budget. The rifle I have now is a PSA premium upper and I am impressed with it and for a basic rifle it has plenty of room to grow with you as you get more funds and want to slowly put stuff on it.

I've got the MI SSK gen 2. I like it a lot. The gen 3 is supposed to be pretty good. If you can look past the
>it's glued together
meme, they're super light, slim, and sturdy. The glue in question is just some loctite stuff on the barrel nut applied when you secure the handguard to the nut before bolting it on.
Also comes in M-Lok if that's your thing.

the SF3P is a bit cooler looking and doesnt increase noise much but it does sound like a tuning fork after every shot.

SFMB is fucking loud and the concussion is tremendous, but it mitigates recoil very well. I think the warden + SFMB is a better pairing than the SF3P

Leon, I'm being nice when I say this is not the place to receive validation. Start a blog or talk to a counselor if you actually want to talk about this stuff.

Because A) this is the wrong way to be cathartic about it because you won't get any constructive feedback
B) it's super off topic. There's not even a picture of an AR in your blogpost.

Go find someone to talk to, but an anonymous image board devoted to gun culture is not the place to do it. I seriously hope you find an outlet and whatever help you need.

>>31489595
>I think the warden + SFMB is a better pairing than the SF3P

I know, I just would rather have the SF3P for it's flash hiding capabilities. I'd take a WarComp if I could find out more about claims of accuracy loss.

That said, as a tuning fork, I can't imagine the SF3P is any worse than the BE Meyers 249F I used to have on my old upper.

>>31489579
How's the weight relative to other rails? I know the Omega I have is around 9 oz, but then I have to factor in the weight of the stock barrel nut, retaining cap, and delta ring in addition to the FSB, which I think puts it closer to 16-17 oz (1.5 barrel nut, 5.2 for FSB, probably another couple of ounces for everything else).

Part of the reason I've held off on swapping rails for so long is because only the BCM KMR seemed to give noticeable weight savings compared to the Omega until recently, and even then I put a hold on making a decision until keymod or M-LOK started to come out as a dominant platform (then I bought a Scorpion carbine so I got stuck with M-LOK anyway)

they heat up but never painful hot. when i was function checking this rifle yesterday i put about 100 rounds through it in about 15 mins, never got too hot to handle with bare hands. if you're really mag dumping id just wear some gloves. im not a big fan of grips or rail covers.

>>31489630
get the 3P then.

Anyone know if the DPMS LR308 Sportacle is any decent? Local Academy has them down to $769 and that's the cheapest I've seen an AR10 for a while. I haven't even seen the parts to build one for that cheap.

Replace the railed gas block, handguard, and stock and I imagine it's a pretty solid rifle.

According to the website, the 15" SSK weighs around 9.9oz. So if you got a 12", it'd be 8.5oz. The mlok models are around .5oz heavier.

>>31489703
It comes down to each rail and barrel profile. the URX is pretty thick so i think it does a decent job of absorbing and dissipating the heat.

>>31489645
No, i put thel close to the middle, similar to a 1-point

>>31486630
So, the AK is less work to clean and cheaper to shoot and more powerful.
Except for shooting bulls eyes past 100 yards, I think I like the AK better.
The AR is lighter to carry around though, especially compared to milled receiver AKs.

Never been into the whole debate between the 2 but if you shoot at all regularly, the easier to clean thing is pretty damn nice as is the cheaper ammo.

Crunching the numbers that brings it down to about 12 oz on a 12" M-LOK rail (9 + 1.5 for gas block + 1.5 for the front sight). 5-6 oz loss is not bad at all, even though I'll probably put it right back on attaching an aluminum rail section and my HSP light setup. I guess that'll be the weight to beat while I search. Thanks!

To clarify, I think if I had to quote, "go to war" or the "SH the F" I'd probably grab the AR. That's because accuracy and ability to carry more ammo.
It's just that the AK is a lot easier to live with a range toy and I'm pretty impressed with it actually, despite all the shit posting.

They're okay, the Gen II's from DPMS are good to go, and at the price that's about bottom dollar for what you can build for. Ugly as fuck though and railed gas blocks are gay

surely you mean the B5 SOPMOD enhanced, and yes its very comparable.

>>31489939
I assume it's a Gen2 because of the fact they moved production to Huntsville.

But yeah, swapping the railed gas block would be easy and a new handguard could be used at the same time.

PSA never has their AR10 receivers in stock for a decent deal so I'm not sure where else to look

>>31490001
Another thing is that DPMS is bulky as fuck, so don't expect it to be as light as an Aero

>>31490125
Yeah I can agree with that.

The stock LR308 without an optic wasn't all that pigfat though. I'd totally consider it as a budget alternative and I wouldn't carry it innabush like I would my AR15

Time to do some reading. Might be worthwhile to buy anyways since prices will almost definitely go up after election season

Should I leave it like this or put some more brown on it?

Kinda new to rifles and have about 800 rounds through a BCM 16" I bought a while ago. On occasion while shooting the bolt does not fully go into battery. I can see the bolt's lugs just about to reach the star chamber so when I pull the charging handle back and let it go the bolt will go in fully. This has happened maybe ~5x so pretty infrequent when the total number of rounds is 800. I've been shooting M193 5.56 btw.

However I think this may be due to me not lubricating enough. I usually coat the cam pin, the bolt's exterior ring and gas rings, and the BCG's slide rails. I checked ar15's lubrication points and found that I should be dropping oil on the ejector and the bolt's lugs themselves. Could this explain the few hangups I've had?

>>31490238
possibly. BCM bolt? what mags? checked the buffer assembly?

>>31487613
it was reflecting off the fog and casing all sorts of problems

>>31490228
You should have painted the rail too 2bh

>>31490261

yeah it's a BCM bolt. I use USGI and Pmags. What should I be checking with the buffer assembly?

>>31490271
You can paint your FDE M4A1 rail when you get one

>>31490286
take the buffer and spring out and make sure there arent any abnormalities, or that anything is fouled up in there. might need to clean buffer tube. if the bolt is failing to seat it would probably be hanging up on something, or there isnt enough spring tension to push it into battery.

>>31490310

alright thanks will check but I'm hoping it's just not enough lubrication so will remedy that and observe in future range sessions

>>31490341
Well I plan on either building another upper and putting this upper on another lower to keep as a KISS rifle. I just don't know whether I'll build an upper with a RIS II FSB or try and buy a DD M4A1 upper. The RIS II FSB route might save me some money which I could throw towards an Elcan.

>>31490379
>elcan

>>31490434
Because Block II reasons

>>31490466
...but you already have an ECOS

im just not a fan of the elcans, weird controls and uggo IMO

>>31490480
ECOS is staying on the 16". If I got another ACOG for the M4, it'd be a TA31RCO.

But that won't happen until next year. After I finish this build with the SF3P and a QD end plate all of my money is going to mags, ammo, and paying off credit cards for a while.

>>31490513
id put some aimpoint on the 16" and put the ECOS on the block 2 personally but you do you.

>and paying off credit cards for a while
giddy pls.

>>31490542
>id put some aimpoint on the 16"
I might do that with a T2 after I build a Block II, but for now the Block 1.5 has the MRO on it until I get something different.

>>31491199
No, it does not retail for $1500, it brings upto $1500 at auction and that is only for nib.
He bought that rail with an upper so it cost ~$450 and if he was to sell it, he would get a max of $500 and realistically $400-450

>>31491235
PRO has a tiny aperture. Compare it to MRO--sounds like you're getting a similar FOV in a significantly smaller optic.

Hi guys

For the HK spergs out there

HK45CT or 1911 ?

I kinda want a 1911 back, but I'd have to let go my HK45CT which I don't really get along with. Also I can't get more than the two mags it came with and it's starting to piss me off.

M&P 15 Sport II a good choice for a first time AR15 owner?
Pros? Cons?

You clearly weren't a natural born salesman

>>31491828
someone rolled for it
only thing wrong is the handguards, at least mine doesn't look bad

>>31491832
1911 because I just blew my money on a Warden and picking up a SF MD and KAC end plate so no trading in my P239 for a Colt Lightweight Commander for me. Let me live through you.

Don't you read hkbro ? I can't get more than the two mags it came with because the HK importer is a retard.

...Also the 10rds mag started to rust from a day in my pocket at the range so yeah. Kinda starts to piss me off. I had for almost a year to pick up all the mags I wanted for my USP.

>should i sell my accupower 1-4 and get a 3-9x?

Yes, how much do you want for it? I might be down to buy it

>>31491628

>>31491911
>>31491914

>>31491914
Quit lowballing. I'll sell you my MRO for $400

>>31491924
Not bad, I'd be more interested in red though personally. I'm kind of thinking about picking up a accupower with the triangle bac reticle. Either that or just ordering a Vortex Razor once my ECOS is payed off.

>>31491928
$250

>>31491924
550 shipped to France ? kek

>>31491941
yeah i dont blame you, i'll probably get a red 3-9x but the green has never bothered me despite the maymays

>>31491942

>>31491957
$250 + shipping

>>31491975

I don't, personally, but if it's good enough for the Hollywood bank robbers, the Canadian military, and in isolated use by the army and marines, why not? Idk what weight buffer you'd need for reliability, though.

new thread!

That's bizarre, bro. I live in sweaty ass Florida and my Hk45 mags have been rust free. I'm admittedly ignorant to French gun laws: are there limits to how many handguns you may have? Regardless, if the HK45CT doesn't agree with you, get the 1911.

>>31492044
I like it pretty much. But two mags for a handgun is a no go for me.

I can't have more than 12 semi-auto funs. Personnaly I can't afford to have more than 4 with all the mags and ammo currently, but four well equiped.

So I have the budget for my HK mags, but can't find any gun shop to find those. Even the USPc mags are fucking hard to get. And yeah, this rust on a mag that only has seen one day in a pocket, well, kinda feels like a meme. HK customer service is pretty much non-existent also here in France.

I'm okay with that with the USP because...Well it's a USP. Also I had the patience to get all the mags, find some spare parts and all.

For a second gun ? Come on, it's 2016, I can get my hands on a KAC or a Noveske, but I can't get any spare parts for my HK ?

>>31491924
>selling washout

>>31491928
