Is a 16" barrel too long to install a suppressor on? I want to pick up a suppressor, but I'm not sure if I want to go the SBR route.

>>31574668
Diversity is fun.
>>31574694
Roadkill the vette?
I'm not sure about the headgasket, but it is certainly a top contender at this point. I haven't checked the thermostat yet but the symptoms don't seem like a stuck closed or partially stuck thermostat.
She runs fine around town but overheats quickly if pushed past 55 mph or so. Small slow bubbles come up in the overflow tank and some vapor which may or may not be combustion smoke. If the HG are blown I'll probably sell it or stow it in TX.

Red dot and magnifier is stupid, in my opinion, compared to using a normal magnified optic
Shoulder stock is ugly
Handguard is a little short and stubby for the length of the barrel
Pistol grip looks slippery
>>31574720
That's not what makes it milsurp. Being a former service rifle makes it milsurp.

>>31574954
Optic was a spur choice and I wasn't sure I wanted a permanently magnified optic, and I hated an Eotech holo sight when I used one, so I went with a red dot. I want to build my next AR15. From what I've learned from buy this and adding parts to it, I know it's going to be really fun. I like Lizerds rifle, even with the meme upper. The ALG rail is nice.
>>31574967
I'm not going to register my rifle. It's ludicrous.
Damn /k/ you really tore my ass up. My next AR15 will be better.
Has anyone ever had to draw their AR on an intruder in a self-defense situation?
Or is your AR purely a range toy and/or end times gun, with your HD gun being something else?
>>31574841
The whole thing is pretty lit desu, I'm using the same stock on my rifle, though if KI was gonna critique it I'd say a longer handguard would behoove you. But hey, it's your rifle.

They can be mounted in either direction, and for carrying it with a sling, having it on the outward facing profile is much more comfortable than having it dig into your back.

"What is it like to fire an AR-15? It’s horrifying, menacing and very very loud.
It felt to me like a bazooka — and sounded like a cannon.
But mostly, I was just terrified.
Squeeze lightly on the trigger and the resulting explosion of firepower is humbling and deafening (even with ear protection).
The recoil bruised my shoulder, which can happen if you don't know what you're doing. The brass shell casings disoriented me as they flew past my face. The smell of sulfur and destruction made me sick. The explosions — loud like a bomb — gave me a temporary form of PTSD. For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable."

Lower 1/3 co-witness or true co-witness?
>>31576515
that's about what it is worth. burn that optic, get yourself a shockwave brace and get irons
>>31576483
>also has apparently a better coefficient of friction
fuckin' doing it in black
On a basic 16" AR do you guys prefer variable scopes of 1-4X or 3-9X? or..? I dont really do much shooting over 250-300yds so 4x is probably good enough but the higher magnification is appealing.
>>31576403

>>31576589
I have a 2-7x slapped on my A1's carry handle and to me anything over 2x feels excessive. For a stubby little 16", I'd just get a rds or reflex instead. That's MY preference.
>>31576589
price range?
>>31576736
>>31576733
Alright cool thanks guys. I've got flip ups. Absolute it is.
>>31576589
>>31576781
lower 1/3 no matter what
>>31576782
Hah. I can see the benefits of either / or - lower 1/3 seems more comfortable, but absolute plays more into ease of use.
The way I see it is: If the red dot's battery dies, it's a clearer sight picture through the objective - straight on through. Plus, can maintain the consistent cheek-weld. With lower 1/3 it's quite low, nearly the bottom. And would have to switch cheek weld.
>still on the fence here
>>31576821
I recommend lower 1/3
Absolute is kinda obnoxious
>>31576589
depends on use.
wanna shoot at 300 yards 9 power WILL be useful. 100 yards or less, 1-4 all the way.
>>31576775
answer is always trijicon
>>31576821
You don't really gain anything with absolute co-witness.
If you're ever shooting from your other shoulder, shooting from weird positions, wearing a helmet, etc. then lower 1/3 will let you get behind the optic better.
It's not as big of a deal as it seams to change your cheek position. Once you look through it a few times, you'll know where your cheek needs to be on the stock
>>31576769
what brand/model is yours? i definitely want some magnification, have considered a red dot + separate/flip to side magnifier. i have 2 other ARs with just red dots, want something different for this build.
>>31576775
preferably $100 max (poorfag at the moment), will probably get something better down the road. this is mostly a stop-gap scope
>>31576912
>$100 max
Just get as good as you can with your irons.
There isn't much worth getting for $100
>>31576912
It's a cheapy NcStar optic that I don't intend to keep on the rifle for very long. At the time I got it I didn't have much free money, and when I do spend more money on firearms the next time I'm going to be buying new firearms instead of accessories. That said, I do intend to get a real good-quality 4x scope and probably keep this thing to stick on a .22lr pistol or something.
In practice it actually seems reasonably functional as an optic, but the mounting system was garbage and I had to fiddle with it a fair bit to get it mounted properly. Aside from not having quite the eye relief that I'd prefer, it seems to hold zero so far and for the price I paid I really can't complain too much.

>AR-15 with 22"
what's the thinking behind this? I would think a short barrel is better in every way. Lighter, easier to handle, sufficient for engagements up to 300+yds. I was looking into the DD mk18 and heard as far as ammo consumption, it's set up so as to accept even the shittiest loads.
when shtf, is preferential barrel length just dependent on rural vs suburban environment?
>>31577357
in a shtf scenario, a SCAR would be the best platform hands down in my opinion
>>31577408
how do you reconcile that with the issue of parts availability, which swings in the AR15's favour versus almost any other rifle?
I'm not that familiar with SCARs since we can't get them in kanada.
>>31574849
Lizard you in CA?
>>31577439
theres a range in the US that runs SCARs and many other platforms, including m249s and m2 machine guns
they say by FAR the cheapest gun to run is the SCAR due to the fact that shit just doesn't break
I'd rather have a 308 anyways, and it's not like you find ptr/fal parts anywhere
ar-10s are sort of compatible
that said, I own an ak and ar.........
Does anyone have The picture of a scar dressed up in a2 furniture?
>>31574694
How do you like the fixed carbine stock? Going to have to get one because I don't want to unstake my castle nut to put an A2 on (muh California).
>>31575137
That is a piece of simplistic art. 9.5/10
>>31575704
I like it better than the B5 because you don't have to remove the stock to get to your storage. I can live without the extra cheek Weld, but it's convenient. Magpul makes good stocks in general, though.
What websites do you guys shop around on? I usually check out primary arms and PSA, but I could use more variety.

I suppose getting an upper receiver from them probably wouldn't hurt, although it's not exactly what they're known for. Around here it's mostly just the lower receivers because they're cheap, but I also have a barrel and bcg from them and both are acceptable budget parts.
>>31578356

Silencer is a perfectly acceptable term. The only people who tried to change it were a bunch of pedantic internet autists who unilaterally declared it wrong.
>>31579263
get
out
>>31579263
that's not a silencer tho
>>31579266
One of the biggest companies out there is SilencerCo for fuck's sake.
I really will never understand the butthurt over the word "silencer".
>>31579266
I just wanted to know what this new silencer everyone is running on their guns, it must be pretty good to be so popular
>>31579276
>>31579277
boy, i'm tired of handing out (you)s.
fuck off before i post dead kitty again

No seriously, I don't even know why you are getting so triggered.
The push to only call them suppressors is very, very recent and really only coming from internet autists. Look here's an official Army FM about silencers.
>>31579242
Have fun writing "suppressor" and not "silencer" on your Form 4
trips aren't very nice
>>31579270
Here's a Maxim silencer patent.
>>31579298
this is pretty much bait at this point but ill bite,
the thing that gun has is in no way shape or form a supressor/silencer, they are not discussing the name but what it actually is, that thing does not supress/silence sound.
>>31579314
get fucked loser
>>31579312
if you weren't so retarded you'd realize that's not a suppressor
First build and my first gun not made before 1950.
>>31579332
this is why i'm voting for hillary
>>31579332
Looks like you should stick go guns built before 1950
>>31579318
i wonder if it would have been added to NFA if he had used a name like gun muffler or bang moderator
NFA was just the 1930s AWB
ban the scary things
>>31579332
stick to old guns
>>31579336
>>31579352
>>31579354
plz no bully
>>31579332
this build amuses me greatly
>>31579353
It makes guns completely quiet obv it needs to be banned
>>31579365
plz stop building eyesore pieces of shit

None of you can even name anything wrong with it other than it doesn't have the same bundle of KAC/DD/Surefire parts /arg/ is obsessed with.
>>31579371
It can

petition to rename silencers to "bang moderators" pls

other than everything that's wrong with it? yeah, you're right.

Thanks for having my back anon, but i only posted it for (You)s

I just can't stand groupthink

Well, let's see here:

it is ugly tho
>>31579428
Yea i feel you. I was certain it would disturb the people who post with names on an anonymous Native American pumpkin farming board
>>31579435
Finally a substantive post, and I'm not surprised it's from anon.
/arg/ trips don't know anything, they just copy each other and repeat memes
>>31579440
>Has enough taste for GDi mount
>shelfmod, probably magnesium shelfmod
Trying to be ironic?
R8 me.
>>31579435
that "tank brake" only weighs a couple ounces and works well, it's a JP
>>31579471
>noCH/10
>>31579456
yes
only anon is retarded enough to write up a well thought out reply to a troll post
>>31579332
>get a direct attachment handguard
>attach nothing directly
>>31579456
Typing out what is plainly visible and obvious to anyone with any minute sense of taste and value is beneath all but the most autistic.
I wouldn't spin it as a point against trips. We can all see what's wrong.
Do you need people to greentext every Armslist abortion in order to validate what's wrong with it? Surely you're not so oblivious.
>>31579467
it's not magnesium although I wish it was
>>31579494
>kmr, firestarter edition
>ever
do i need to post the recoil video again?
>>31579475
>weight: 6.1oz
Excuse me, it's 38% of a pound instead of 50% of a pound. It's still a heavy goddamn muzzle brake.
And through a 24" rifle-gassed .223 it will have very little effect (just like every other muzzle brake design) and, due to how far out the first baffle is, possibly be worse than some other, less aggressive designs.
>>31579504
no it's uncommon
>>31579516
Recoil videos show it preforming very well, but on that big ass barrel it might not make a difference
Why can't PSA keep a decent selection of uppers in stock?
Any other suggestions in a decent price range?
>16"
>Chrome lined
>1:7
>Free float handguard
That's pretty much the gist of what I'm looking for.
>>31579542
MBs don't even do fuck all on 20'' barrels
>>31579554
Thank you for repeating what i just said
>>31579542
It won't.
Brakes lose effectiveness as muzzle pressure goes down. Muzzle pressure goes down with longer barrels and longer gas systems.
Narrowly spaced baffles work better with low pressure than widely spaced baffles.
Multiple smaller baffles work better with low pressure than 1 big baffle.
>the JP Recoil Eliminator is a large, wide-spaced single-big-baffle brake
>it's on a 24" rifle-gassed barrel
I'd be willing to bet the difference between it and a bare muzzle on that rifle would be very small.
>>31579543
Everyone keeps buying them
>>31579543
Because it's an election year and they offer good pricing on good uppers, so they keep selling.
>>31579564
sure
and you repeated what he said, dipshit
>>31574683
How many rounds do you have on that PSA bcg? Your thoughts on it?
>>31579572
Yeah yeah, obviously. I'm just curious which paint-slurping penis-puller decides to have 35 uppers and only 1 with a chrome lined barrel.
>>31579580
like 120 maybe
it works, they are great bcgs. I've shot some in the past into the thousands and had no problems
>>31579581
why go through the trouble to chrome line when people buy them either way
>>31574668
Should I bother with a red dot if my eyes are so fucked up, or look for a low-power variable optic?
>>31579581
Not everybody needs a chrome lined barrel, especially considering they cost (significantly) more and hurt accuracy?
The corrosion and erosion resistance of chrome lining is only marginally higher than the much cheaper QPQ lining?
PSA's target market are poor normies that wouldn't know a good rifle if you buttstroked them with one?
Take your pick.
>>31579630
Stick with irons until you can save up enough for LASIK.
Then figure out which one best suits you.
>>31578885
AR GOLD then. It's a 1.3 stage.
>>31579637
My optometrist is iffy about me doing LASIK even if I could afford it. I'm considering getting a second-opinion.
In the meantime, time to replace my shitty Magpul MBUIS with KAC then.
>>31579675
That sucks.
Why's your optometrist iffy about lasik?
Try to get into an opthamologist for a second opinion. They know far more about WHY the eye does what it does than optometrists do.
If someone was willing to do lasik on me as an insulin-dependent diabetic with truly horrible astigmatism someone'll do it for you.
>>31579692
I'm already stuck at home disabled, with a possible auto-immune disorder and infection in my spine. He's concerned that my eyes wouldn't heal properly and I'd be left blind.
>>31579735
...yeah that's a pretty good reason to not do the surgery.
So this is what I've come up with to stencil the blank side of my lower. I figured I could do the orange parts in brown/green and everything else in tan.
>>31579748
I misspoke. The green parts and knife in green/brown/black, and everything else in tan.
>>31579774
Why
It's just contrast so I can cut it out easier
Is it the subject matter?
>>31579471
>barrel mounted hardguard
>rail mounted carrying handle
>lame grip
>standard collapsible stock
literally nothing special or remarkable about the thing
3/10
>>31579630
>or look for a low-power variable optic
I never really use my T1 anymore even though it takes like ten seconds to swap. The VX-6 does an excellent job at 1x.
If you really can't see shit in reflex sights, then go for it.
>>31579790
yes you dumb weeb
>>31579818
You're a weeb
>>31579817
What are some good variable optics? I was looking into a few of Votex's offerings.
>>31576287
nice pic anon.
>>31579847
The Strike Eagle is great for the money.
>>31579847
I was also considering a Leupold Mark AR Mod 1.
we magnified
It's nice living in the country
>>31579735
Get a 1-4x variable. There are options at all different price ranges and most will include a lighted reticle.
>>31579863
Don't be so mad
>>31579909
Neat SBR on the bottom. You can get a better stock though,
>>31579889
>>31579872
Thanks lads
Once my refund processes for my Aimpoint I'll probably order something. In the meantime I think my shitty MBUIS will have to do.
>>31579939
Not even him.
That thing is uglier than my mother
>>31579939
I almost replied
Also where the fuck is a brother supposed to get some 3/4" wrenches that are .25" thick at the head or less
I'm scared to go ask /diy/
>>31579954
what about this angle
>>31579909
Don't be qb
>>31579961

>>31579976
I checked, but I'd consider going back if you could prove it.
What are some good resources for someone who is interested in one day building an AR, but has no idea where to even start?
I'm not looking to buy a budget AR, I'm willing to wait and save up for something nice, I just want to be able to do some research and make informed decisions down the line.
>>31579996
p sure that's where I got mine. go to lowes or ace or google
http://www.primaryarms.com/troy-industries-16-556-upper-w-13-m-lok-rail-and-flip-sights/p/supg-5mf-16bt-00/
Do I buy this complete upper or pay ~$250 more and get a BCM barrel, full auto BCG, MBUS pros?
>>31580005
/arg/, just be patient and ask smart questions and take everything trips say with a grain of salt
>>31580008
everything is fucking dissapearing everywhere
just go for it if its in stock, im struggling with my new build here. DD just closed plants because of the hurricane so its bullshit all around.
Convince me not to spend $800 on a used M4A1 RIS II

Poor AND Retarded. wow.
>>31580005
thats how i did mine and it turned out all right.
follow this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8sY5CQmlHI and just google the different pieces as some are not made the same, in the end it all depends what you want the rifle for.
>>31580050
I mean more like what parts to buy and such.
>>31580049
do it
>>31580070
If I do it, I won't SBR it though
>>31580007
Ace is where I am now and they don't have shit
>>31580068
In that case, the first response to your question was best. Just read and absorb everything you can until you're familiar with manufacturers.

Snap-on. Kinda pricy tho.
>>31580077
sbr something else
>>31580082
what cuck town do you live in
>>31580109
They have wrenches
Just none of them are thin enough
>>31580109
I was going to SBR the M4 into a MK18
>>31580107
>>31580123
Are you looking for a muzzle device? I'm curious too.
>>31580123
go somewhere else
>>31580129
ooo do that
>>31580140
Yes, the flat surfaces on my current one is .25" wide, raised on either side. So I need a wrench that will fit.
>>31580159
I'm going to be looking soon too for a SF3P
>>31579963
Just not a fan of it. But eh. If you like it, who the fuck cares. Its your weapon.
>>31580217
FDE is ugly and Geissele just doesn't have the same aesthetic as URX or RIS
Ok pb where tf are they
So /arg/, can we talk about drill presses for a moment? What brands are good? What do you use on your 80% lowers? Any recommendations for someone who wants to start cheap and drill out his first lower?

Latest pictures of my ARs. I have an EOTech 512 for the FN SOPMOD clone, and the M68 will have the mount swapped out and be attached to the FN, replacing the carrying handle.
I bought a cheap Bushnell micro red dot for the tacticool pistol.
