What rail is that?
>>28257660
It's a monolithic upper iirc but I could be retard
can't find a combo on gunstruction that looks like what i want.
does a grey, red, brow, green camo exist?
>>28257721
Swiss alpenflage?
just gonna dump a few i like.
>>28257735
that ones on there but it doesn't zoom out the way i want. oh well
>>28257660
Aero Precision COP M4 upper. It's not just a rail, it's an entire upper.
The thing is fantastic. I plan on getting their COP C4 carbine length upper for my .300blk SBR build.
>>28257768
I like this one
>>28257770
I just realized how fuckhuge the brass deflector is.
Anyways, I still like the look of that upper.
>>28257768

>>28257800
Circle dot, actually. I plan on replacing it with an Aimpoint PRO at some point.
It does the job just fine and I have nothing against them, but I'd just prefer an Aimpoint on that gun.
>>28257803
Yeah that's a lot of work. I just repainted mine but it just got dark here so I'll take new pics tomorrow. I hate painting too
Snow camo is best cammo
>>28257787
It's a nice looking upper, and it's completely modular.
I have nothing negative to say about them.
>>28257832
no idea that it was modular. That's pretty sweet.
Anybody here ordered an M16A1 kit from ar15hardware.com?
Did I do good?
>>28257845
One length fits all
No interchangeable top rail
Just different amount of 1913 on the sides and bottom.
Its not bad, just dont see it as a solution to anything.
>>28257847
>somebody had AR15 kits in stock
Mother fucker, I just paid $600 on Gunbroker because all of the big sites have been out of stock since forever.
If you want one, buy one now. They sell out fast, and $500 is a good price these days.
>>28257854

It comes in a carbine length, the C4. I've heard rumors that they're working on a rifle length version, but those remain just rumors.

>>28257934
Buy a flat top and switch parts is the best option.
>>28257934
Stripped flat top would be my choice
Failing that, gooseneck that shit
>>28257934
buy a stripped flat top upper

Well shit. Seems like I can't buy the rail only.
I have a 300blk build I'm doing rights now too. Need a rail.
Are the Daniel Defense iron sights good? I'm thinking about getting them.
>>28258133
Yea, they're super solid
>>28258133
I think the rear is great if you don't plan on dialing elevation. Don't have a front, but it looks nice and slim on a rail.
>>28258116
The whole deal with it is that it's one solid body
>>28258133
They are good, any reason you are not getting flip ones?
>>28258133
They're great, they were my choice for a while, and they'll be the irons for this rifle once my new build is done.
>>28257768
Dairy cow pattern off the chain my nigga
>>28258152
I have magpul flip up sights, but i'm thinking of splurging and getting these as well.
>>28258133
They're good. They're not super durable though.
My AR dropped off of a ~3ft. high table at the range and landed on concrete on the sight and it folded one of the wings on the rear sight, which easily peeled off by hand once I touched/poked at it.
>>28257161
>Being autistic
>>28258152
Yeah I get that it's a solid body now
>>28258171

Is an adjustable gas block a must with 300blk assuming you will be shooting super and sub unsuppressed for quite a while until money comes along for a suppressor? Basically, how can I reliably shoot 300blk in all of its forms. 9" barrel btw
>>28258171
Personally I'd save that money towards an optic (assuming you don't already have one), but having had both a set of MBUS and the DDs, I can't blame you for wanting to ditch the MBUS.
>>28258226
Why would you shoot subsonic 300BLK unsupressed?
>>28258227
mbus pro? I was thinking of getting the front to go with my stolen valor rear
>>28258227
I want an optic, but I want to learn my rifle with irons first haha. I want to save for an aimpoint pro
what does /arg/ think about cobalt kinetics rifles?
look at how disrespectful these things are.
>>28258238
MBUS Pro are fine. The regular MBUS are fine to sit on your rifle as backups but they really suck to shoot with.
>>28258258
I think they're better than Salient's nonsense
>>28257104
god that other thread is a literal cesspool of faggots and cucks. they should all kill selves
>>28258258
They go beyond gucci in a bad way, and 90% of the shit on their rifle is pure nonsense:
>two forward assists
>completely custom billet lower but you couldn't make it ambi?
>billet lower but no integrated trigger guard, and the stock trigger guard is so wide that any regular after market one would look stupid as fuck
>HERA arms grips suck
>fixed stock
And that's just the practical stuff. Asthetically, they look like fucking ass or something a kid in middle school would draw during lunch break when he's sitting alone with no friends.
Or Sauron as he was plotting to take over Middle Earth.
>>28258292
At least SAI's look decent even if they're massively overpriced. I'd really love to get my hands on their new rail and Jailbreak system.
>inb4 somebody post a shitty SAI Glock
I'm talking about their ARs.
>>28258233
>quite a while until money comes along for a suppressor
>>28258448
Forget pic.
Too bad the only thing worthwhile that they make they won't even sell by itself.
>>28258435
I painted my gun, I think you will like it
>>28258258
It reminds of holly wooded up medieval swords or something
>>28258478
Looks like a weapon from Halo
>>28258238
I like my PROs a lot. I had regular MBUS on my first AR and didn't really care for them.
>>28258578
That's insulting to weapons from Halo.
It's more akin to what an AR would look like if it was made in Mordor.
>>28257238
>just let me throw some snow on my AR so it doesn't look like the safe queen it is
>>28258624
Cool I'll pick one up

Why? Super fragments/expands better, penetrating less, and is still loud because you don't have a suppressor.

Let us know if they ship you a decent product. I might pick up a second or third kit.
On that note, does anybody know if there are any reproduction parts of the M16 prototype. I know Nodak makes an M16 prototype lower and they also make a prototype upper with a trigger charging handle, but I'm coming up blank on the muzzle device, gas block, stock, and grip. I'd really like to do a prototype build, but having a prototype lower/upper but M16A1 furniture seems stupid.

Can you install angled fore grips on AR pistol builds?

I have the EFAB because wasn't sure if I would put it on a pistol or not. right now it's on a rifle til I make a pistol. works well enough. doesn't look as nice as the AFAB but supposedly handles better with shorter barrels.
>>28261969
you'll need an AR barrel nut wrench (some rails ship with an adapter that will work with a socket wrench) and I'd recommend an upper receiver vice. Personally I like midwest industries m-lok. sub 200 dollars and durable.
>>28261969
>>28262022
or, if you're not going the vice route, there's DD Omega or CASV from VLTOR.
The omega is a bit more pricey, though.

Top kek at the removing friends meme Toska.
I'm just trying to help but if you actually wanna stop being miserable you have to take steps yourself, like seeing a doctor or reaching out for support.
Look into cognitive behavioral therapy and/or see a doc about antidepressants. You don't have to live like that. Depression works very insidiously and the thought patterns it causes are self reinforcing. Coming out of it was like coming out of a coma for me, felt like I lost so much time. But you can get better, it's not easy but its possible.
Also reminder to /arg/ to stay positive and don't be afraid to seek out help with any mental/emotional problems you have. Better to do that than to breakdown and get committed and lose your funs or killing yourself.
It's annoying when you try to help from a position of experience with depression and get shut down.
AR question, what should I be looking for in terms of price per round on 55gr fmj? Anyone got any good ammo sites? I've never bought ammo online before

Is head spacing an issue on new builds? Do I really need to spend the $100 on gauges?
Can anyone ID that grip and handguard?
>>28263136
no need to check headspace.
>>28263155
Almost looks like an ATI grip
>>28263157
Is that more for older rifles and worn out chambers/extensions
>>28263307
it's more for people who are anal, headspace is built into the chamber and bolt and doesn't need to be checked at all unless you are installing the chamber extension yourself.
>>28263338
Couldn't it be possible that the barrel Is defective?
I'm just trying to imagine a scenario where it would need to be checked. They. Are sold for a reason, then again maybe it is just for anal people
>>28263357
yes, a barrel could be defective, but it is very rare.
>>28263357
any barrel manufacturer worth their salt do headspace checks when they install a barrelextension

Also consider looking at red dots. PA makes a cheap RDS that will be good for just about anything you'd want with your rifle. Alternatively, for a little more you can get an Aimpoint PRO for ~$350 if you look hard enough.

>>28264695
Sadly I was right, it is a no go suppressed with the ASR lock ring.
>>28264704
Unsuppressed is not advisable either. This is with an 8" barrel. I have used a 7.5" barrel with a Flash Can under this rail though if you wanted to do that.

Hah, first thing I thought when I looked at that pic was imagining him saying "Hold on,.." throws rifle in snow then puts it in the case. He glances at his friend(s) and they smirk and nod before taking the picture.
>>28257238
>hang on let me sprinkle some snow on my rifle to make it look dirty and more rugged
what a poser faggot
So I picked up a PSA complete lower on the cheap during Black Friday. I just got it in and I need to start thinking about an upper now. I was thinking of building an ultra lightweight upper because most of the family property is mountainside. Hell, to get to the long distance range, you literally have to climb a rope up the side.
So, tl;dr - ideas on ultra lightweight upper builds that aren't mad expensive?
What is a good low profile gas block?
>>28264719
Looks like it'd be tits with a SF muzzle device and a Warden, assuming that would fit, I think the QD mechanism is lower-profile than your can's is.
CASVs make my peepee hard, they're so fucking 2005 cool
>>28264924
I threw the rifle in the snow, not the snow on the rifle, get it straight loser
>>28264965
Any of them. They aren't that hard to make. Mine was custom machined from a local shop that just opened up near my place.
If you want to be spoon fed, BCM
>>28264960
A shorter pencil barrel with a pinned muzzle device and a light handguard like a KMR or ALG would probably keep things really light, especially if you stayed irons-only or something like an Aimpoint T1/Trijicon MRO/Primary Arms Micro.
I think PSA does 14.7" barrels, which with a pinned standard A2 flash hider come to over the legal 16" requirement. If you can find one in a pencil profile, that'd be pretty damn light.
>>28264984
Yeah, I think I'm certainly going to go with a smaller red dot and no irons. Maybe a Vortex.
I might have an in with someone at Faxon. I know a guy who knows a guy sort of thing so I might be able to pick up something of theirs on the cheap. Never used them so I need to look and see if they do pencil barrels.
Would polymer end up lighter than a KMR or something? Maybe one of those carbon bits but then again, fuck the money for something like that.
>>28264960
>You have to climb a rope
Where is this dreamland? It sounds beautiful. Got any pics?
>>28265009
Possibly? I'm not sure of the total weight of standard plastic carbine-length handguards, but I've also never seen them used with a low-pro gas block, and the FSB adds a lot of weight compared to a folding BUIS or no irons at all.
Just bought an Aimpoint pro for $360
Did I fuck up?
How gay would it be to buy an airsoft M203 to put on my retro M16A1 clone?
37mm Cobray launchers look like ass hanging down 5" from the barrel and it's not worth the money, tax-stamp, and registration for what is now essentially a smoke/flare launcher in 40mm ever since chalk rounds got declared as DDs.
I'm building the clone almost strictly as a functioning replica. It's not trying to be a practical rifle.
>>28264969
reported to INS for workplace violence
>>28265036
Nah, that's a great optic and a pretty good price
Coulda gotten a used CompM4 for around the same price though. :^)
>>28265051
Do it. Make sure it's an actually decent airsoft clone though, not some plastic POS
>>28265051
>>28265063
An alternative I just found in ~2 minutes of googling is a 37mm clone of the M203 made by a company called RDB. Haven't found a whole lot on it, other than it doesn't hang nearly as low as the cobrays and looks a lot closer to the M203.
I only managed to find classified ads for used ones, so it might take some patience to find one, but it'd be a thousand times cooler than an airsoft one.

I'm all for making fun of safe queens but you're retarded.
>>28260925
Where'd you get the dust cover from?
[spoiler]please tell me it has Megadeath Asriel on the opposite side[/spoiler]
>>28265121
RDBs are impossible to find and have been out of business for years. I've been looking and am coming up blank.
>classified ads
Most of them are 2011 and earlier. I think my best bet would be to make an account on Arfcom or something and post a WTB classified, but still they're very rare.
>>28265139
It's actually more like 4 layers of paint, because I'm a lazy asshole and never paint it properly/strip it.
I don't shoot nearly as often as I'd like to, but the idea that I baby this rifle is silly, it's a budget-focused PSA build.
>>28265148
Yeah, I figured as much when I couldn't find an actual website or retailers or anything for it.
Arfcom probably is your best bet. Like you said, it's unlikely, but those fuckers have all sorts of weird shit collected, you might get lucky.
>>28264969
>I think the QD mechanism is lower-profile than your can's is
Yeah the Omega is pretty chunky at 1.56" diameter and the ASR lock ring is just slightly larger than that.
Here is an old pic with the KAK flash can which is 1.36" diameter and 3.25" long, I could see the warden in a similar configuration if it fit.
Those protrusions on the inner diameter of the CASV are just for the screw in mount points for extra rails, if you weren't using them you could grind them down.
>>28265186
>Arfcom probably is your best bet. Like you said, it's unlikely, but those fuckers have all sorts of weird shit collected, you might get lucky.
I know, but then that means I need to make an account on Arfcom which makes me physically ill.
If I can find one, it'll be worth it.
>>28265139
>>28264882
I could see you saying that about the others but mine was at least a bit thought out in joke form, come on....
.....here, say hi to Becky.

say what you want about arfcom in general, but their EE is great

Can confirm, arfcom EE is suprisingly not shit
good colt 20 rounders for cheap desu, would do business with again
Was at the range wiff my AR yesterday, banging the steel at 585 yds (pretty big plate, but still felt good.) bretty gud day. Muscle- bound bro shows up in brand- new riced out Camaro with blinged- out AR. I'm talking burnt bronze, brand name was some cheesy tactical death thing with a skull on it, upper and lower were fancy shapes. Had a gold plated BCG and spiral cut flutes on the barrel. Nikon M223 on top. Guy was nice enough, but I couldn't help but laugh as he tried to zero the scope. Rapid fire to "make groups" when he was all over the dirt berm, when he did adjust his scope he'd just crank on the knobs as far as they'd go. My friend went over to help as best as possible, but he was doing so many things wrong it was for naught. Felt bad, he was a nice enough guy, but it was pretty funny to watch. Definitely had more money than patience or finesse. Kinda hope he takes a basic class or something.

What's the sexiest billet receiver set to you?
I'm making a list for a dream build.
>>28265824
That's pretty common. I don't get too worked up about it. He is obviously new to the game. One more person in our corner is one less wanting to grab them.
>>28265859
a forged one because its stronger
>>28265824
You've encountered your first "normie".
They are very common and always laughable. pic related
Guess I'll post in this thread since OP is competent enough to title it properly.
>>28262579
Haven't had any problems using run of the mill magpul slings. Clip and QD are good to go if you don't care about having the latest and greatest in high speed stuff.

Youd probably be disgusted to know how many people are ok with gun ownership as long as the government doesnt let "people who shouldnt have guns own them". and then can barely define what they mean by that.
Theres alot of people who are ok with "reasonable regulation".
>>28265894
its actually worse titled then the last few that had /arg/ in there too
this op is fucking retarded and should hang himself
I store my rifle in a locked soft case. Do I need some sort of desiccant in there?
>>28265926
No. You need to take it out of there.
>>28265883
Not enough to matter. Plus if you have a catastrophic failure shrapnel from the receiver probably won't fly every where
