>>33275294
When I first started shooting it felt natural.

I scored 28/40 On the marksmanship test.

Then I learned how to actually shoot. I feel like it has a gimmicky place for people who don't understand the benefits of gripping higher on the barrel, but are serious about their initial basic instinct.

More power to them if they know what they're doing with an antiquated technique.

>>33276027
>Excuse me? Who the hell doesnt have a vert or angled grip for their railed ar?
That doesn't justify its existence.

There's literally no reason to use an aftermarket grip. It doesn't provide anything that the base gun doesn't already allow for. It's just extra weight.

>>33276123
Holding it vertically is a more natural position for the hand and helps control muzzle climb. Some people might like that.

>>33275199
I'm gay for the punisher comics and still don't understand this

>>33275992
What is the purpose of the extremely uncomfortable retarded high grip on barrels that operator wannabes are doing?

Dont say, "It helps 'drive' the weapon to the next target"

I bet you do stop and assess too faggot

>>33276027
>Who the hell doesnt have a vert or angled grip for their railed ar?

Who the hell has a railed AR besides cosplaying neckbeards?

>There's literally no reason to use an aftermarket grip. It doesn't provide anything that the base gun doesn't already allow for. It's just extra weight.

Getting this buttblased over a 5oz attachment that makes shooting noticeably more comfortable

>>33275992
Some ex-military guy on youtube claimed it was taught during their CQB courses to help maneuver in a building since your arms are tucked a bit more and it shortens the lever, but it is far superior to grip further down the barrel just for the sake of leverage and controlling the muzzle if you're not in that specific situation.

>>33276178
They claim it helps control the muzzle but I suspect half of them are just trying to look cool.

No. The intended purpose is for stabbing via thrusting the pistol foreward into an attacker. They tried that concept in WWI and it didn't work out so well.

you can own pistols that have 'historical significance' under a Section 7.3 license.

>>33276431
I think he's referring to the fact that wait times for the BATFE to approve or deny your application have gotten longer since 41F took effect.

>>33276433
Do Webleys fall under that category? Can you still shoot and buy ammo for antique handguns?

>>33276445
>41F
What's that?

>>33276322
That's actually pretty cool. Except for that glock, i'd shove a 1911 in there.

>>33276431
>>33276445
Both. I registered two SBRs and a suppressor before 41f on a trust. It will be more difficult for me to file another one since my brother is gone for a while and it will probably be pretty hard to get him to give me fingerprints and a passport photo.

>>33275322
Spikes's normal shit is fine, but their products with skulls and shit are just cancer. Why do gun companies do this? Are they trying to make gun owners seem even more edgy than they already are?

essentially an anti-concealment device.

>>33276269
according to the ATF letter, it's not a foregrip.
>"The device referenced in your communication appears to be designed as a decoration and not a vertical forward grip. If used as intended, this device *would not* constitute reclassification of your pistol as an "any other weapon [AOW]".

The same guy also got the ATF to write him a letter stating that mounting a black polymer penis-shaped bayonet to a pistol also does not reclassify it as an AOW.

>>33276627
>Implying gun owners are gun people.

Most gun owners know absolutley nothing about guns and place more value on a big scary looking threat-display than they do on functionality.

$230 for the SA bolt, $90 for the demilled parts kit, $80 for the 16.5 inch barrel and $80 for the reciever. So $480 all told.

Had a friend with a lathe make the bushings for me and made my own magwell. I ended up not using anything from the parts kit except the stock and trigger housing.

I think I could build the next one with a reciever made with tube stock and a printed template for about $15. I could just buy the trigger housing for $40 and the stock for $12. Make my own bushings again of course as well as my own magwell.

COULD make my own bolt but that would take a lot longer. Barrel is a must too.

Im thinking now that I got things down better the next build could end up being $300 or less. Would only cost about $100 if I made my own bolt.

Of course as you swap out pre-bought parts for home made ones dollar cost plummets but build time skyrockets.

Initial build took a weekend with all the prebuilt parts, my $100 build would take about a week if thats all I did. Obviously I dont have a week to do nothing all day but work on it so im estimating its real build time would be a couple months.

>oversized stereo headphones like pic related around your neck audibly playing rob zombie's warzone on repeat

>>33279613
That's better than an Uzi. I know most tubes comes with the template glued on them. Is it possible to remove it and put it on a new tube, or buy a paper template somewhere?

Can you convert the old bolt, or do you have to start from scratch?

I would like to do a sten SBR, but I have a vision of modifying it to be vertical mag configuration, take uzi mags if possible, have a pistol grip and use a VZ61 folding stock.

I'd cut the hinge assembly off the stock, then weld two small tubes to either side (or the bottom) of the receiver and mount the stock like a G3 folding stock or that Troy PDW stock. Figure out some way to build a spring loaded detention system to lock it in the open and closed position. Maybe add a cheek rest since it's kind of a shorty stock.

>>33279640
You mean kinda like this? (My final built)

Most reciever template manufacturers are very protective of their templates and dont give em out or sell them. The templates are bonded to the reciever like a giant sticker.

They are super simple though, if I got the measurements I could just draw my own up and photo copy it and use tape to wrap it around some tube stock of the proper diameter, thickness, and alloy.

Would cost about $15 for the steel tube and 6 hours or so of time to draw the template up.

It would be more work converting an old bolt than just turning and milling a new one, plus those old bolts are shot to shit and were of questionable quality to begin withp.

>>33279683
Kinda! The more I look at it the weirder i realize stens look with a vertical mag.

How much liberty can be taken with the design? Like is it possible to move the magwell further back if you extend the tube further back to level off with the edge of the pistol grip?

I think those things are kinda mall-ninja tier too, but I think you might be stretching it. Catastrophic malfunctions are not common enough on ARs to worry about your hand being near the mag.

I mean magwell holds are fuckin stupid, you risk pushing the mag release button on accident or pushing the magazine out of alignment and causing a jam but the gun blowing up isnt really a factor as to why its stupid.

That's an old A.R.M.S SIR rail system, goes back to the 1990's and was one of the early ideas to build a free float rail system.

Where the fuck are you dumping your money?

Look, dumbass. If something seems stupid, but the people doing it are posting times two seconds under you, then it might not be that fucking stupid after all, yes? It's the same concept as digging the fuck out of your weak hand heel into the grip of your pistol with the hand rolled forward as much as possible to control muzzle rise. It's uncomfortable as shit but you shoot faster so suck it up.

I bet you faggots go around telling pirates that they're "gay and tryhard" for having wooden mermaids on the fronts of their boats. You just hate fun, that's all, and it doesn't get any more gay and tryhard than that.

Talked with the owner of the company that makes those. He made a more basic one (the warthog) which apparently spikes had trouble keeping up with sales because it was so popular. Spikes even asked for an even more gaudy one so he made that skull one and Spikes got even more sales.

I think even during the 17th and 18th century pirates were regarded as tasteless proles who usually ended up in a gibbet, but good on you, your skull sure looks badass, just like your Affliction tshirt.
