j-comps on non-pencil barrels look gross

>>33076814
Just got into ARs and firearms in general.

This is the first rifle I see in the thread with the magpul handguard. Aesthetically, I prefer this look.

What's the appeal of the freefloat handguards that everyone else seems to use.

Not hating, just asking.

Error: Our system thinks your post is spam. Please reformat and try again.

Error: Upload failed

What the fuck moot

>>33077890
>whats the appeal of the freefloat handguards
They make the rifle more accurate, depending on barrel thickness potentially by a humongous amount.

Side benefits are they can extend past the gas block to allow more options for gripping the thing, more options for sling and accessory placement, and flat-out more room. They also provide some extra protection for the barrel and gas block, and transfer less heat to your hand.

I have a FSB i want to replace with a Low profile gas block so I can free float my handguard. Ive read a lot of gas blocks tend to fail because of set screws and what not. Im a noob to ARs and i dont really know the difference between gas blocks. It seems like .750 is the most common online, what the difference?

>>33077874
>j-comps on non-pencil barrels look gross
why?

>>33077911
>They make the rifle more accurate

Dare I ask, how so.

Also, first potential first rifle. I was thinking of the M&P S2, but I've heard good things about this:

http://www.brownells.com/firearms/rifles/semi-auto/ac-15-5-56x45mm-nato-16-mid-length-rifle-prod82606.aspx?avs%7cManufacturer_1=AERO%2bPRECISION

Is it worth the extra expense of the rear sight?

>>33077938
M&P Sport 2 is what I have. It's a solid rifle at a good price. Aero Precision is really popular too. I don't think you can go wrong with either choice.

>>33077868
fuck cant make thread at 8ch,net due to captcha not working after passing it. it just ask me to do them over and over

>>33077938
Anything touching the barrel affects its accuracy. Rest your handguard on a barrier? POI just shifted up.

>>33077935
the comp tapers down to a diameter less then that of the barrels out side diameter. right after the gas block. it makes the brake look really thin. it's just my opinion

>>33077978
We wouldn't have followed anyway, /arg/ isn't very keen on 8ch.

>>33077978
got it I post a thread there.

time to migrate you all geneses

>>33077984

I haven't had much experience with freefloats, but wouldn't the flexing of the freefloat guard affect accuracy as well?

>>33077987
oh I see, I can understand that

>>33077938
Anything that puts pressure on the barrel shifts the point of impact. Higher pressure, very hot barrels, and thinner barrels shift it potentially a LOT (20+ MOA), but it's normally a ~1 MOA shift.

Things like shooting off a bipod or over a barrier shift your POI compared to shooting offhand, shooting TOB will shift your POI from shooting magwell-grip, which will shift your POI from shooting chickenwing, etc.

Keeping anything from touching the barrel (freefloating) eliminates this entirely.

>>33078004
No, the free float only interfaces with the upper receiver, that's the point

>>33078013
No because my pseudo-autism prevents me from doing so, as I'd like my tan memeotech to match with my stock, but I think green looks respectable on an AR

>>33078032
Ohhh, ok. I was assuming one would still be using iron sights on a FF. If you have a scope, it's attached to the upper and that would keep the scope accurate.

I think I get it now.

>>33076197
wow what a deal

>>33078046
You can still use irons on a freefloat. Both ones attached to the freefloated handguard or ones attached to the barrel.

Just make sure that if you have them attached to the barrel that the handguard doesn't contact them, otherwise it's not actually freefloated.

Yes, irons attached to the handguard are in theory less precise than irons attached to the barrel. The overwhelming majority of people will use crude enough irons and practice infrequently enough that it won't matter.

Anybody here regularly shoot steel cased through their AR?

I'm a poorfag and brass cased ammo is expensive here in Canuckistan. Been looking at bulk steel cased ammo.

>>33076814
Is that the 3x prism scope? Have you noticed any issue with the eye relief when mounting it far forward enough to clear the MBUS?

>>33077890
Everyone calls them free-float hand guards, but the the important part is that you are free-floating the barrel at the same time. Which helps improve accuracy.

>>33078104
newfag to guns here, is shooting steel cased corrosive or something?

>>33078136
Theoretically steel wears harder on the internal components and doesn't seal the chamber as well leading to more residue inside.

>>33078104
Yes.

Slightly more malfunctions and I get dogshit bad accuracy with it, but it goes bang.

>>33078136
No. Quality control sucks on it and if it's loaded with a bimetal-jacketed bullet it will wear your barrel out faster, but none of the 5.56 loads are corrosive.

>>33078104
>>33078136
I do most of my 100 yard and in shooting with steel case, it's "bad" because it usually isn't copper jacketed so you have a harder metal running down your barrel at 3000fps which wears it out faster. that's probably true but your barrel life will still be beyond 5,000 rounds. barrels aren't that expensive to replace. most steel case ammo also has shit accuracy.

>>33078155
and in general being under powered and shitty quality and dirty and it's not unusual to hear of some people's guns having trouble cycling it correctly

There's an incredibly small crack in my upper receiver next to the star chamber. Should I be worried?

>>33078136
It's not corrosive like surplus 7.62x39 or anything, but it's less accurate, and can apparently wear out your AR faster. The main appeal is lower cost. Not sure if the "Wear out your AR faster" part is fuddlore or not though.

I like my AR, but am having a hard time justifying the cost of ammo for what is basically a glorified hole puncher when I could have bought an SKS for $250 along with a fuck ton of cheap surplus ammo that the SKS was designed to shoot, and have probably just as much fun.

>>33078156
>>33078160
I guess the money saved buying steel cased would be enough to buy a new barrel if I ever shot my AR enough to wear it out.

>>33078155
>>33078156
>>33078160
thenk u for information
Also, would the fixed sight post interfere with the sight picture of an eotech+magnifier?

Price check on a DDM4A1 upper with the FDE RIS 2. Guy has one listed for $1150. Trying to decide if I should trade him a gun plus cash or a straight trade for a rifle.

>>33078136
the additional wear is NEGILIBLE full stop.

for plinking under 100yds steel case particularly wolf is way to go.

>>33078178
Eotech by itself yes, somewhat, unless you got an aftermarket mount to raise it to a lower-1/3 cowitness. With the magnifier the front sight tends to kind of fade out because it's inside the minimum focus distance.

>>33078172
Yes, several different places have done workups on barrel+extractor replacement schedule. You will always be financially ahead of the game shooting steel case, just gotta be willing to put up with the crappy accuracy and cold loadings.

>>33078136
No it just puts wear on your rifle that a soft metal such as brass wont.

In all honesty tho most people shoot less than 2k rounds a year and it would probably take years before something broke.
One ofthere thing tho is that steel case is bottom of the barrel tier ammo and is not reliable, the steel can expand and get stuck in your rifle (been there) and the primers can suck ass and not fire (been there way too much). it's worth it in guns that were intended to shoot steel like an ak, but the ar-15 ammo being manufactured is garbage if it's steel.
Just suck it up and buy brass or start reloading, range brass flows like a river and is free.

>>33078172
the other good thing is they load it to lower velocities (less powder = less cost) so it's more gentle on steel targets. winchester white box 55grs and federal 55grs tear up steel targets pretty bad.

>>33078214
AHA I forget for a sec

post pic on 8 ch then.

>>33078134
It's advertised as 2.75 inches, which it is exactly that. Even with the stock fully extended I can still see the reticle clearly

>>33078201
Thanks 4 reponse

>>33078178
A lot of people shoot with a red and a fixed front sight, the front sight post would obscure some of your view of course, but it shouldn't really hinder your ability to hit stuff. People usually line up the eotech sight with the front sight post.

>>33078205
I'm not super concerned about accuracy. All I do is go to the range like once a week and put holes in paper with my fucking $12 ammo. My AR is a $1000 hole puncher, really.

>>33078223

Also I pulled a bunch of the Polyformance "55gr" FMJ's and none of them weighed over 51gr. Ranged from 48gr to 50.6gr out of the 25ish I pulled. Meanwhile my Hornady FMJBT-w/cann had an extreme weight spread of 0.2gr across 500 bullets.

>upload failed
God damnit you fucking zipper heads

So emailed gibbz about the issues I'd had before. They told me to send pics, which I did.
They then told me they think the barrel was installed "too tight"

Well the installation for the ALG emr will only line up if the barrel is tightened to the correct ftlbs, which I believe Bill said was around 30.

There's no fucking way that I did any more than that, and there's no way that 30ftlbs would be enough to bring the fucking barrel out of alignment. So I promptly and politely told them they were full of it, there's no way that's the case. The thing their rep cited was the feed ramps looked off, and they clearly aren't.

I'm gonna order a stripped upper on Friday, my replacement shims should arrive by then and I'm gonna try to swap uppers again, then ship the gibbz back and tell them to unfuck it

Teardrop or circle forward assist?

>>33078191
You could probably buy one new from DD for that much, they still make FDE RIS complete uppers for commercial sale.

Why no pics?

>>33078299
hirohito is over on is monthly bill

Daniel Defense A1.5 rear sight or CNC Gunsmithing detachable A1 carry handle?

>>33078290
I seem to recall several people telling you your feed ramps looked off in here when you first put the barrel on. You probably have a bent index pin.

>>33078299
Because you touch GC at night.

>>33078240
Got it f a m

>>33078301
I'm selling an A1.5 rear. Like new from an upper I parted out.

>>33078294

I havent seen them in stock on their own site for about a year now. I only see them second hand and even then its very rare. I know that most of their RIS rails and production go to military and LEO first. Also this one that is being listed is brand new.

>>33078290
Teardrop to go with the tears your Gibbz upper has caused you to shed.

>>33078303
I've never heard that, and I inspected the barrel. It looked fine.

The feed ramps line up with the upper damn near perfect.

I'd post a pic but..

>>33078322
Excellent

>>33078299
You didn't pay the upload fee.

>>33076155

>>33078315
I think the FDE RIS II goes about $500-600 for the rail alone. Factor in then a DD bolt and CHF barrel and receiver and you're getting close to asking price. It's probably worth moving on if that's how you value it. It's not an FSP model is it?

>>33078285
Okay, I posted it there.

>>33078311
How much are you asking?

>>33078303
>i broke 4chins
Nice

You know I was against going over to 8ch /k/ to continue the autism parade, but seeing them literally REEEEEEEEEEEEE at an influx of 4chan refugees makes me think we should all go over and shit up their board. Since I can't post and image, have a text preview:

"Don't come and ruin our board with your content-free shitty thread just because your cancerous monolith of a website went down for a few minutes due to the SJW owner's complete and utter lack of knowledge about how to host a server. Kill yourself."

>>33078332
How's $45 shipped sound? I think some tripfag just sold a front for that much here the other day.

>>33078325
Take the barrel off and look again. Also check for damage to the notch it rides in in the upper. Barrels can torque during installation if you're doing something retarded or not using the proper tools, either bending the index pin or wallowing out its slot.

Did you use proper tools when torquing the barrel nut or did you do the poorfag "sit on it and pray while horsing on it" method?

>>33078330

Thats what my price calculation was thinking. Also, nope not the FSP version. Would a fully converted Saiga 7.62 be a good trade or would I be getting fucked?

>>33078336
You do realize MSD would be free to post his lewd gotes over there, right?

>>33078346
Ill check again when I swap uppers.
ALG uses a really neat barrel nut and shim system to get perfect alignment, and I followed the instructions to the letter. Putting the upper together actually went very smooth

You didn't answer the question dickhead.

Did you use a receiver block/BEV/Reaction Rod or did you tighten the barrel nut with nothing supporting the upper?

I'm in for my first AR15 and i'm between Oberland-Arms and Hera Arms.

>>33078388
So you secured it in a bad habit?

Did you use an actual torque wrench?

Did you use a *vise*, BEV block/Reaction Rod/Panther Claw?

Why are you evading such a simple question as "what tools did you use"?

zero for 100yds or 300 yds depend on your expected shooting activity.

not even possible retard, reddot doesn't have enough internal adjustment for that.

>>33078391
50 yard zero is the best for a 1x optic. I'll fight anyone who preaches otherwise. For the most part it keeps you within 6 inches of your POI from point blank out to 300 yards. Holdovers beyond 300 become easy once known and practiced.

I zero my 1-4x optics at 50 as well. Generally only use a 100+ yard zero on high mag optics riding precision guns.

Would there be any interest in these? I've got a set that I decided not to use. Would let them go for $105 shipped.
Samson HK fixed sights. Literally put them on the rifle, then sold the rifle a few weeks later.

Anybody recommend some extended take down pins? My 9mm SBR is super hard to take down without a tool and I often found myself having to take it down to strip a fucked up casing out. I should be past that stage now since I think I worked out the kinks, but some extendo takedown pins would be nice

B5s wobble. LMTs lock solid. And have a cooler mark.

If you really don't care buy an airshit model

>>33078845
Convincing argument

I'll probably still buy a B5 because LMT is a faggot for trying to sell them for 200

If I like the B5 I'll get a secondhand LMT from somewhere

where to buy straight pin fsb?

>>33078851
Depending on your use, the lockup is worth it. And it's SOPMOD spec ops approved so there's markups

What can I do to insure my Colt 6920 will run steel cased ammo.

>>33078869
My hope would be to hog hunt with it but I'm not sure when the fuck that'll really happen

I'd use it as a joke for 2gun too if Okeechobee opened up the roster of rifles

I'm more concerned about liking the actual feel of the stock before a bit of wobble though, I'll put a stickynote on the tube if I need to fix it that badly

Well shit, I found an LMT stock for 100 bucks

Cheapest B5 I can find is 40 bucks tho

How good of a deal is the LMT one? Next cheapest I can find is 150

Niggers

If the AR was somehow made to accept and eject magazines as if they were an en bloc clip like the Garand, would that still be considered a detachable magazine?
I was thinking about some system where the magwell was extended downwards, had the bottom filled in, and had a spring system, so that you could hinge the upper forward and push a cuck capacity magazine down in there and then put the rifle back together. Then when you hinge the upper all the way fowards it would eject the magazine out.

This could be an option for cuckifornians, as well as anyone who wants an AR Garand.

He's making an excuse for why he doesn't need to buy it. It sounded good in theory but now that he's faced with the possibility of it actually happening he's chickenshit. Probably doesn't own an AR.

No idea what his name is on Arfcom, but it's the same dude I bought this upper from. People bitched at me when I posted one of his pics

>>33079473
One guy offloading something cheap one time does not make that the established resale price, it just makes this Fly person look motivated to sell.

>>33079439
Mine doesn't wobble much but it also doesn't bother me.

>>33079525
He sells a decent amount of shit, I'm pretty sure he takes surplus from a local PD or something, and he's been doing it for a while

Smoke Lancers are $13.99 a pop right now on Brownells, plus they give a $10 discount and free shipping on orders over $99, so if you order 8, they'll be $10 each and will ship for free.
Thought someone might be interested. Now let's see if the fags will actually ship them here.

Not so much the 14.5" but the 14.5" with a middy gas. And not to be anal but that anon just said 14.5", he didn't mention anything about middy gas.

The only reason I can think of for doing a 14.5" with a midlength gas system is if you were trying to slow its cyclic rate as compared to a 14.5" with carbine gas. Which is a common goal of suppressor users since the suppressor increases the gas pressure. By going to a midlength gas 14.5" with a suppressor it should reduce the cyclic rate. as compared to the more common carbine gas 14.5"

as someone who actually owns and uses a suppressor. I can tell you from experience that shit is going to be over gassed no matter what you use for gas tube length. Its just how it is.

They're plenty of reasons to never use carbine which is why i suggested middy. If you need to see why middy is better then carbine, have a stroll over to my favorite place called google.
