I personally believe that for ARs there is no reason not to get a QD mount.

QD mounts are great.

Thanks for introducing me to KDG. I'd heard of them before but it seemed kind of Mickey Mouse. Apparently though they are legit. My only concern is that if something bumps that mechanism then your optic is popping off. Also wish they made a scout mount

Just wanted to post a reply to the dude that was pushing MAGPUL wrenches in the previous thread.

Why in the fuck should anyone pay over $75 for a CAST hand tool??

Not heat treated, not machined, just fucking CAST.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY is what that is. Thank god MAGSHIT has idiots jerking off to their logo because that kind of quality/price ratio is worse than beats by dre.

You can get factory .338 for $2 a shot, I didn't realize how relatively cheap 6.5C was for what it does though

>>33741015
Yeah, no don't get me wrong. I'm sure it will change a barrel or whatever. BUT for $75 you should be getting a tool that's die forged, milled, and heat treated. Not cast. That's just weak. Shit takes a bad drop and you're out $75 and god knows how much time

It's not like a long con or anything. It's literally just 2-3 times what a tool of that build quality should cost. And apparently most of their target demographic doesn't know any better or care so that's why they can sell it for the price of a superior quality tool without actually producing a tool of that quality. It's just your standard name brand price gouging seen in every industry.

How about this. You go ahead and send me that hypothetical $75 you were going to spend on a MAGPUL cast wrench and I'll send you a proper forged wrench (that will outperform that harbor-freight tier piece of shit in every way) with MAGPUL stenciled on the side and pocket the extra $40.

You're right, that's how the market works. Develop your brand, and then use that leverage to jack up your profit margin with no benefit to the consumer.

See, it doesn't need to be forged at all. I'm sure cast WOULD get the job done for 99% of people that are in the market to buy a wrench.

The source of my angst is the outrageous price point. That Ncstar wrench that was posted farther up was $17 and probably every bit as good as the magpul. I just saw someone recommend it and thought I'd be a good samaritan by trying to explain why buying that is just wasting money when there are so many other options out there. MANY OF WHICH are higher quality (forged) for less than HALF the price. Idk about you, but I don't take kindly to being fleeced like that.

haha now see, when it comes to actual gun parts I have no sense of scale. That was all just coming from my perspective as a guy who works in a tool shop and knows about tools.

As far as I'm concerned there's some magic shit in gun parts that makes a $150 rear sight shoot truer than a $30 rear sight. Unless the machining is really that much higher quality, I just assume that $120 going into gun accuracy/durability magic. Better engineering maybe? Idk.

The Bobro is lighter by an oz or so and has 1 QD latch. AD also has a "scout" mount with a single QD so I wonder what the differences are.

>>33742064
Well I mean I googled it, and found one almost immediately(http://karrisguns.com/kg-ar15-complete-pistol-lower-Blade.aspx), but generally tripfaggots use tripcodes because they're a helpful, knowledgeable resource that the community can go to to ask for help with such things as purchasing advice on items that they could reasonably expect a tripfaggot to have some experience with, or possibly know someone who has experience, or maybe have seen a blog post by someone who has experience.

It still matters. Three tine flash hiders are designed with an open port at 12:00 and no open port at 6:00 to avoid kicking up dirt when shooting prone.

I mean, it's all pedantic autism on the internet, my claim included. Does it really matter with a flash hider? No. Maybe the guy didn't have shims, maybe he doesn't care at all, maybe he never takes the suppressor off. But it's designed to be installed a certain way, so why not install it the correct way?

>>33742036
Bobro fo sho doe. Probably Steiner from that selection, but those products have different applications and different price brackets.

>>33742155
I like it a lot, especially the alignment, holy christ nipples. But the finish is glossier than most milspec hardcoat and the looks don't match many rifles.

That's kinda chink, I bet SilencerCo would take care of you. They're pretty good about that kind of stuff, or at least they were before Mike Pappas left.

Funny, Mike Pappas now runs Dead Air, and all three of my Dead Air muzzle devices came with shim kits. I can probably send you one if you need it.

>>33742261
I would build one, but I don't think I'd ever build more than one, so I don't want to invest in a few hundred bucks worth of tools, and I don't know anyone around(small town in the midwest) who has any of the tools I'd need.

Then buy a PSA complete lower plus a good stock for $200 and spend $600 on an upper. If you are going to cheap out anywhere do it on the lower

>>33742304
Or maybe SiCo doesn't think timing a flash hider matters, therefore there isn't a "wrong" way to time it, making your original point moot despite how fun it is to be pedantic on the internet?

Did you just get Key-mo muzzle devices for your SiCo can, or did you get a Sandman?

>>33742367
Is PSA even a reputable dealer? The only time I ever hear anything about them is either "I ordered some shit from PSA 18 months ago and it still hasn't shipped" or "holy shit I ordered a brick of .22 lr from PSA and they accidentally sent me a case of ACOGs!"

I just don't want it to end up like the time I bought /k/ patches from that tripfag 5 years ago and he never shipped them.

Just got this Colt Sporter Competition HBAR Pre-Ban (cuck state) with heavy barrel, researching what I wanna get for it.

Are the knock off Trijicon ACOG 4X32's any good? The Kinstta branded ones are still aluminum and seem pretty sturdy.

I'm looking for recommendations for a pistol grip, shroud/handguard, and foregrip as well.

I'm not a fan of PSA and avoid them if I can. However if I was going to buy a budget complete lower they are who I'd order from. I'd say worst case scenario it'll take 2 weeks to get to you.

>>33742487
depends what a typical session at the range is for you. if your shooting a round every 5 seconds or so then no. if you're double tapping a lot or doing any kind of "tactical" shooting they get hot fast

Its coming along. I had to do some learning along the way. A Sopmod stock and a second free float upper to keep my 3x on and I think Ill be done. But I guess I could use a 1-6x too.

Any suggestions for a 10-12" complete upper? BCM is minimum $800(out of budget) and the most expensive one on PSA is $300(possibly questionable quality?)

Bobro has great machining, but ADM is a better value.

I also recommend checking out the GG&G mount. It's the lightest QD mount I could find and is a similar price.

77/22s are pretty nice but I feel like they're too expensive for what they are. I think CZ has better magazines, equivalent quality and superior accuracy at a much lower price.

I like it a lot considering the price. The trigger and smoothness of the action in particular. Mark II mag catch is shite tho.

>>33743428

>>33743156
Oh I forgot about the Ruger American! Yeah I think those are swell for the price. The trigger was not as bad as a 10/22 and the stock didn't feel as flimsy as I thought. Would recommend, yep.

>>33743446
I thought my accutrigger was so gritty that I put a rifle basix trigger in it, still trying to tune it just right

AR15 always AR15, i wanted a AR and glock 17 but got a 10/22 and SR22 first. i got bored for them almost instantly after shooting, got a 17 and then the AR little latter. i gave the sr22 to my dad and haven't seen it in years, 10/22s rooting in a bag in a closet somewhere

if you dont want to spend the money on .223/5.56 just get conversion kit, AR15s are not that scary they're all bark and no bight

>>33743636
not wasting my time finding them to take pics

>>33743655
>AR15s are not that scary they're all bark and no bight
Why would I want a gun that has no bite?

He's a retard, disregard everything he says

This is a guy who flunked from the army because he wouldn't go get reading glasses or something

>>33741773
No, there was this crazy shit that happened a year or two ago where they flipped out on a guy who reviewed their budget line and found their shit was way out of spec.

Palmetto State Armory is where I draw the line between cheap shit that works and cheap shit that is garbage.

>>33743698
Was that why

Figured I would hear him out. If he can't defend his ideas I can always ignore them.

>>33743766
I'd call you a PSA shill but they don't have the spare 50 cents.

5.56 is soft shooting while still being a solid defensive cartridge, unlike .22

What Sig pistol? One of the things I love about Sigs is that you can get 22 conversions for them.

You lied when you said you'd get the job. Or any job.

And you lied when you said you were gonna kill yourself. That's unforgivable. We wish you had.
