Use grease

Baby wipes

brass>steel


>suggestions/ mod reccomendations
a sling and a light, get good with irons then decide if you want a dot or magnified optic.
>>
>>29199010

Right now, I would get a magpul K2+ grip, mbus or KAC 'stolen property' USMC rear sights (off ebay). Get 3 more pmags and spend more than you feel comfortable on ammo (Wolf steel case, not Tula). Get a MS4 sling as well


Eventually:
>you might want to get the 50k hour Primary Arms red dot, but don't bother with the cheaper ones.
>or just save for an acog TA-31/33/11
>get a m-lok or keymod free float handguard. just pick one or the other, it doesn't make anydifference other than m-lok is magpul if that matters to you
>save up for a surefire M300V with pressure switch if you're going to put a light on it.
>end up with atleast 10 mags. 20rd mags are nice as well (just to consider).
>save up for a geissele (SSA-E or S3G) if you want, but a JP Enterprise spring reduction will help with the already great trigger that AR's have, and only cost $10
>CTR stock but the carbine or MOE stock is fine for now.


Steel case ammo is perfectly fine, I've put over 2k through mine and I have another 2k coming in tomorrow. Do not bother with buying cheap shit. Save up, and buy what you want; it'll cost less in the end. Pic is mine, except I've since stripped the paint.

You can build a 6920 for $373?

>"Great deal" because it has a picture of a horse or a couple hidden dicks on it

Hipsterism at it's best


>gets angry every time some guys on the internet tells you that you wasted hundreds of dollars instead of learning your lesson and buying smarter next time
I'm just sick off asshurt hipsters crying about other peoples purchases, I don;t care about your faggot gucci AR builds

Fuck off back to /arg/ where you belong.
>>
>>29199341
400 complete upper build kit + 100$+ lower + 50$ sights + labor= 550 + labor

vs 540$ m&psport 2= 540

not to mention the higher quality of parts and quality control, and fucking LIFETIME WARRANTY

>>29199196
I know and I don't care.
>>
>>29199339
Thank you for your well thought out response. I'll be researching those things.

This is the kind of thing I was talking about when i was asking for advice, not a build or bust thread.

>>29199388
I'm a frugalfag, not a poorfag.

You faggots can't seriously be arguing that it's cheaper to buy a decent AR? It's only cheaper to buy a complete AR if you get shit tier garbage. Even a basic bitch well functioning AR is cheaper to build and you don't have to replace any of the parts for what you actually want.
>>
>>29199539
>It's only cheaper to buy a complete AR if you get shit tier garbage

Got my 6920 for $560

Sold the magpul shit on it and got what I wanted on it.

There is nothing wrong with buying an AR15, some people have no interest in assembling an AR and will be perfectly happy buying one.

Some of us like them stock and don't need a lot of customization.

Quit crying like a little bitch because people decided to do what they wanted with their money.

>no you are supposed to build an AR to my specifications with a parts list approved by me!

blow me homo

Shit plastic sights that break easily.

Get ammo. Get good sights. Get good 2 point sling. Get ammo. Get at least 7 more mags while they are cheap. Get more ammo. Get good optic.

>>29198930
Sure, let me tell you my story about the first day with my AR.

>AR arrives
>immediately start passionately finger fucking it
>dry firing like a boss
>clearing my house like a douche
>something tells me to chamber live rounds to "test" if the rifle works or something
>cycle a few rounds, everything looks good
>decide to slowly and quietly ride the bolt home, like i'm a navy seal in the jungles of Nam' sneaking up on some gook motherfuckers
>it gets hung up
>oh shit, time to use that forward assist like a boss
>oh shit. it's stuck like glue.
>fuck this charging handle isn't doing shit
>fuck I have a live round stuck in my rifle and it's like 2 a.m.
>google "stuck round"
>find out what mortaring is
>mortar that bitch out. unclench my anus.

And that's when I learned to stop being an autistic fag who rides the bolt home slowly, causes a malfunction, and makes it worse with the assist.
>>
>>29201308

>chamber live rounds to fufill some retarded autistic COD wannabe fantasy and irresponsibly handle a weapon you didn't know how to use

This is why i'm for gun licensing.

Hey I learned my lesson nigger. We're all idiots at some point. This was years ago, and it was in the middle of bum fuck nowhere. Only person who would've been hurt would've been myself, and that's natural selection you salty cunt.
