Not gonna pretend that 5.56 is really stout on recoil, but when certain designs can reduce recoil/muzzle climb by as much as 60% over a bare muzzle they have valid uses.
>timed competitions
>select-fire/full-auto use
>combat

They have very few drawbacks too.
>increased muzzle flash compared to a flash hider
While this is true, it's still pretty negligible unless you or your target are using NVG's.
>increased concussion to the shooter
While this is true, it's only more annoying--not more dangerous. Cranking a round off indoors is going to fuck your hearing whether you've got a flash hider, bare muzzle, brake, or "concussion reducer" all close enough to equally as to not matter.

>>31496241

I'll keep that in mind. My second build has a thread protector pinned on, I wasn't really sure muzzle brakes were allowed now so that's mostly why I did that.

It's just a bargain PSA upper so I'm not too fussed either way, maybe next build I'll consider a brake.

So if Larue optics mounts mangle rails, what do Larue rails mangle?

What happens if you use a Larue optics mount on a Larue rail? Does the mangling cancel out or is it extra-mangled? Would it summon the FSM or Cthulu instead?

>>31496530
i dunno m8, my rails havent mangled anything

Rather extensive experience with a NiB BCG. I've had a FailZero and whatever company Black Rain Ordnance buys theirs through.
>don't bother
It wears super fast and by 1200 rounds was rougher than a phosphated BCG. By 3500 rounds the FailZero's coating was literally flaking off (they refused to repair or replace it), and by 4200 rounds the BRO one was worn through along the rails. Though neither of mine ever stained for some reason, which is the most common complaint on the internet.

>>31496869
got a buddy that works at Crane Naval Base and he says the only shit they really care about are the NVGs because of the cost. A PVS-14 costs like 3k while a AN/PEQ is like 1k. So Im sure they track them, just not as hard as a NVG

>>31496896
but muh trip is on?

>>31496904
Cerakote's pretty much the only option unless you also want it to be super shiny.

NiB is a pretty if pointless coating for the receiver, it's just a terrible coating for the BCG. Hard chrome or nickel plating is also an option if you want the "80's African warlord" look.
>http://www.chandlerhardwoods.com/product-p/ar15-lr-m-l-nickel.htm

>>31496920
It's still up in the air so we'll see, I honestly don't have much use for a PEQ since I don't own NVGs anyways, it'd just be cool aesthetic. The one that would be nice is he said he could try for an ACOG, which would save me the cost of getting a good optic. But I have my doubts

Hey, how's the "Ping" with your SF3P? I'm kind of leaning more towards a FH instead of a MB for indoor/night shooting.

>>31499923
Theoretically the black PVD (ionbond/DLC) is going to be the slickest and most wear-resistant, at the cost of not holding lubrication that well.

Otherwise stick with phosphate.

yes

You too need to have a meet and fuck already.

>>31500133
Easier to heat treat, easier to machine, may have a little better corrosion resistance if properly finished, not as resistant to fatigue as carpenter.

It's a cost-saving material that's advertised to be "just as good as!" what the mil specs call for.

Similar situsation as qpq barrels vs chrome.

nice. if only they had a warden for me to buy.

>>31500318
The only reason to buy mil-spec is to understand that it's the minimum bar set for known quality. There's a lot of AR stuff in production that exceeds milspec in terms of materials and construction, and more that may be just as good, it's just not mil-spec. Personally I'd go for mil-spec option when the price is the same, but I mean your BCG probably won't explode if you get the other one.

>>31500333

>>31500296
Not him but I wouldn't be too concerned about it, ACOG isn't a precision optic. It's for quickly hitting man-sized targets at range. A few millimeters won't radically alter that.

>>31500354

really? they straight up told me they didn't have any when i asked.

ah well. i'll just order direct from surefire tomorrow and wait a couple weeks.

>>31500389
No idea, I just dropped my upper off at lunch and they said they'd throw it on for free so it might be too late to go back on it now.

If I hate it, then i'll just have them break the rockset and get a WarComp when they're back in stock when I get around to picking up a new barrel and save this barrel and SFMB for a dedicated 3gun.

Then again, it'd probably be cheaper just to buy a suppressor.

>>31500391

>>31500434
It's all good. I'll wait to do some night shooting to see how bad it really is.

Honestly, if it were a home defense scenario, I'm probably grabbing a handgun or my M4 clone with the MRO on it instead anyway.

If SHTF, I guess I'm not going to sweat the muzzle device too badly and at night I'll be using a M600 so it's not like that won't do the same thing or give away my position just the same.

just got done building my AR-10 actually

what are some good irons for .308?

I wonder if /arg/ can clear up what sounds to me like fuddlore. A coworker of mine says with an SBR lower you have to carry the original upper around with the lower so you can revert it to its original configuration at any time. The way I've read things to work, as long as you keep the original length upper you used on your paperwork, you can use any other uppers on the gun--again, as long as back home in the safe is the same length barrel as declared on your form 1.

Who is correct? When I get my stamp, if I have multiple uppers I don't have to carry them all around with me at the range do I? That seems like an overly literal reading of the laws.

>>31500454
>>31500465

>>31500457
having owned a few qd mounts, larue dont really "chew" up rails unless you're retarded but they do mar them up more than any other qd mounts ive seen

>>31500506
Besides? Who likes being able to hear or even see at night in the first place?

>>31500501
If it's an SBR you better keep the paperwork with it regardless. As for upper length, you can put whatever on it and be fine, just can't legally go shorter than the length you put on the paperwork.

But no, you don't NEED to keep a certain upper with it.

>>31500506
>having owned a few qd mounts, larue dont really "chew" up rails unless you're retarded but they do mar them up more than any other qd mounts ive seen

This. Just don't over tighten them and crank down as hard as you can on the QD lever.

>>31500526
>File SBR as 7.5" barrel
>have just about any length upper you want on it just fine.

>>31500539
Yeah, I mean really I doubt that you'd ever get fucked over of your barrel is 7.5" and 10.5" is listed on your form but yknow, ATF an shieeet

>>31500526
>just can't legally go shorter than the length you put on the paperwork.
Fug, that's the first time I've heard this.

To clarify, here's a hypothetical situation I'm talking about.

>Form 1 papers list an 11.5 barrel
>have a second upper, lets say 12.5

Coworker says I literally have to take both uppers with the lower every time I go to the range. I don't think that's right, as long as I always own the 11.5 upper.

Has she got any more questions?


Maybe I'll order some more mags when I buy that front mbus. What's a good place to get 10/30 pmags?

>>31500565
Nawh it doesn't matter what upper you have with it. You could run a 20" on it solo for whatever reason, there's no mandate on what upper you need to have with it.

By this logic it would be illegal to transport the stripped lower at all without an accompanying upper, even FFL to FFL.

>>31500595
Right. Since I still own the 11.5 upper, even if I have another length upper in a different configuration that I for whatever reason feel like shooting on that day, I can still revert the gun to the registered configuration.

Tax stamp always being with the gun is a given. I intend to put the actual stamp in a safe deposit box at my bank and carry a photocopy in a plastic bag in the pistol grip of the SBR lower.

As for "can't go shorter than the form 1" where did you get this information? I think that's also incorrect, from what I've read.

>>31500583
Probably a cuck store. I just looked and you'd do better to just order 10s.

I worked with in a Type 07 Class 2 SOT gun store with NFA firearms for a year. That's what we were explained, although no ones ever been fined for it though except in cases of bigger crimes where they just tag on whatever they can.

I guess it's possible that they told us wrong, I never questioned it.

My understanding from a fellow coworker is that the individual ATF agent for our area came in a explained that to him. We had a manufacturer's license but I don't see why it would then applying across the board.

It's also interesting to note that caliber is also effected by this. If you list 5.56 as the caliber (since Multi and generic ones like .30 are a no-no) it could be construed as illegal to put a different caliber upper on it. Doubt that would actually happen though.

You can't fucking read.

>>31501597
Nothing. You implied there's something wrong with buying a BCM upper. I said there isn't considering you're getting a nice trigger, and that it would be wrong to pair a nice trigger with some unknown manufacture budget barrel of questionable accuracy potential.

>>31501845
no i want this to be real, the shitposting would be amazing

>>31501890
>I'm thinking of getting a PSA lower kit and slapping on a BCM upper
can you read?
i don't think he said he was going to buy a psa upper

>>31501890
Ah, I must've misread

I may buy one within the week

>>31501945
M8, he was saying it's not a bad choice to buy a BCM upper but it'd be a bad choice to buy a good trigger with a bad (ie another choice) upper/barrel

>>31501945
No shit. The subject of the post was BCM uppers.

You literally are ESL-tier. Stop digging yourself deeper.

Subhumans don't deserve nice things. It's not for you.

>>31501984
did you paint that rail yet?

>>31501963

But what is a bad barrel? Is a PSA Premium "good" or "bad"?

>>31501946
what upper?

the hat they gave me last time was fucking terrible

>>31501963
if you can't follow what's being said don't interject, fucknaught

>>31501972
he didn't say anything about buying a shit barrel, retard
he said psa lower and bcm upper, then maybe a nice trigger
since you couldn't figure that out it looked like you were whining about BCM barrels

>>31502011
Paint what?

You must be confused m8.

>>31502000
:^)

PSA Premium have chrome FN barrels, they're a great deal on a complete upper.

A "bad" barrel is one the vendor won't reveal where they're sourcing them from.

Depends on twist rate, materials used, general QA, barrel lining, production process, tested/not tested, etc.
