No matter what happens, I'll still have changed my gas block before he changed his. The scope will be icing on the cake.

>>29308718
I just got my rings on amazon.
>>
>>29308725
Yeah they are. They were in the same order as the scope and a few other non-/k/-related items so I couldn't cancel it. Oh well, $24 for a set of 30mm QD rings is worth the wait I guess.

Besides, I can still shoot the gun the scope goes on, just have to put up with a chinweld because the scope's currently in a cantilever AR mount.
>44mm objective would normally be best suited to low/x-low rings on this gun

The bottom of the objective is over an inch above the barrel.

Also nice rifle.

Currently have an unbuilt LR308 receiver set, debating on trying to get a .243 barrel for it or building it into a .308 tactical rifle. Already have an LR308 in .308, it's set up as a dedicated bench gun.
>24" barrel with a .900" barrel diameter from gas block to muzzle is heavy AF
The barrel alone weighs more than my SPR.

how does $40 shipped sound?

as for the raptor problem, basically, my raptor latch wore out and started hitting me in the nose when shooting.
after that i decided to fuck with it since the worse that could happen is it keeps hitting me in the nose when shooting.
i discovered that my raptor can be released by applying reward pressure to the body/shaft, without actually touching the levers.
i tried the same with a mil-spec one and it wouldn't budge, not even a little.

the problem is with the design of the raptor and the location of the springs or pivot points.
it's not a problem until it's a problem, but since i use my shit a lot, and rough, it's a problem for me now and now i want a bcm ch.

NOTE- i never modified the ch until AFTER it started malfunctioning.

Are you still committed to drilling bigger gas ports in your barrels, after making the weight of your buffer system fucking massive, thus inciting multiple problems that did not exist in the system as designed?

The cascading effect of you ruined the last barrel you had drilling the port. It just seems like you are making the rifle more complicated than you have to.

If that's how your new barrel groups, you're fine. But I still feel like you're just adding problems into the equation.
>>
>>29309884
the last barrel was a nitrided barrel, apparently those don't like being drilled.

That's the impression I got, sounds like the nitrided steel mushroomed out for whatever reason, while the chrome is okay. My personal guess is you had too high of a speed for the nitrided barrel, because you did the same thing you did for the chrome. I'm not a machinist or materials engineer, I'm just guessing here.

Something somewhat compact without a shit ton of magnification, like in the 1-6x range. Something in ballpark of the Vortex Crossfire2, Strike Eagle, or Nikon P223 series. So many options in this range it's hard to pick one.

Budget is maybe 7-800. I want a 14.5 inch upper of as good of quality as possible. Mlok guard too. Match or very close to match quality as this will be my "main battle rifle" so to speak. Will be doing some hog hunting with it too if that changes anything.

I built the lower myself for ~$200 maybe 250
Bought the upper assembled for ~$500
Optics/irons cost me another $200

The upper is from radical firearms - great quality but the wait times are literally insane.
>>
>>29310439
I'd pick up a 14.5" upper assembled from BCM, then a low-pro gas block and the MLok rail of your choice, I'd recommend the Geissele Mk8.

Then you just remove the FSB, install the gas block, and install the rail, and pick a muzzle device to pin/weld.

The upper is squared away. Fit is great, finish is boring but flawless. There is -ZERO- play between the upper and the lower. I was legitimately surprised. But both came from Cerro forge (Keyhole) so I guess it's all to spec

HW style front sight picture? Yeah I think the Troy ones have that. You really should try flip up fronts. I don't understand how so many people retain fixed front sights while using a red dot. Even if you're lower 1/3rd cowitness you're still covering a a lot of the FOV.

My Aero and Hardened Arms upper fit together real tight. My PSA and Hardened Arms has quite a bit of wobble.

Ah. I see. Either way, doesn't really matter. I think YHM makes H&K styled irons too if you actually want them.

As it stands, I'm debating just building a whole new upper with folding front sights so I don't have to replace the ones on this rifle.

And by debating I mean I don't have the pocket chedder for it right now, but it's on the list.

I like aluminum 20 rounders, but make it plastic and it's suddenly gay.

I think the majority of AR owners are working with a standard A2 FSB...so a fixed front isn't unprecedented. In fact, I'm partial to milspec ergos/manual of arms, so not having to mess with a front sight is actually kinda comforting.

Sides are backwards so accessories don't fall off if I bump into a wall or something. The bottom ones are standard to accommodate directly attachable grips

Adjustable gas blocks are mostly used alongside suppressors, since there's a significant pressure difference when running suppressed vs. unsuppressed. If you don't plan on using a suppressor any time soon, there's no need for an adjustable gas block. Just make sure you get the right diameter for your barrel, most are .750 but a few of the lighter-profile barrels use .625 diameter.

With all due respect friend I very much like your rifle and have a great deal of admiration and camaraderie with you simply because you're a fellow firearms enthusiast, but please consider the importance and significance of leading a healthy lifestyle. We only have one body, and our bodies are what carry us through this short, brief, and wonderful life, why not take care of it so that it can best serve you.

Simply cutting down on beer or cutting out soda can make a world of difference. If you can avoid processed and fast foods you're already on a good track. Throw in some cardiovascular exercise a few times a week and I can promise you that you'll begin to see results.

Please consider it friend. There are many resources out there for you to use, the last thing is simply making the decision to start changing your lifestyle.

hi /k/

I have the UTG pro 15 rail which came with two picatinny rail sections installed. I'm getting a bcm gunfighter vertical grip 3, should I get the picatinny version and mount to the rail (circled in pic) or take the rail off and buy the keymod version?

not so much worried on the price as I am with sturdiness and long term reliability.

On one hand the rifle came with these mounting blocks to be used, but on the other why not just attach two pieces together instead of having a 3rd unnecessary piece holding them together.
>>
>>29311256
I was also gonna mention the 'points of failure' philosophy, and agree it makes more sense to cut out the middle man (rail)

I'm confident that the direct-attach grips are just as sturdy, if not more, than using the rail intermediary
>>
>>29311256
Plus if you rely on the rail, you can only put it on the rail (obvious, I know)

With the keymod version and an empty bottom, you can easily experiment with the full length to determine the best position for yourself

it feels stury and its ambi which is nice, but honestly I started on a Glock and learned to shoot using your brain/finger as a safety so I haven't found myself actually using it much. mind you I just got the rifle recently and have shot it maybe twice so far

I used to be a brain safety kind of guy too, but on the AR it's so convenient it's become second nature for me.

Things you use the safety on:

ARs
1911s
Every other gun (if you are a bitch) (this is sarcasm).

Safeties are for unsafe people.

I like Kenmore cause it's close and Issaquah because people smoke and burn furniture in barrels.

Ultimately want to find a range that's at least 400 if not 600 but realize I'll have to travel for it
>>
>>29311735
If you're seeing them for $10, they're probably a knockoff.

The real grip pods run for quite a bit more. They're okay, but depending on the situation the bipod can be a bit tall. I have a legit one, but I never use it.

Okay, so with a lot of research and thought, I've nearly completed my build list for my 6.5G precision rifle. I'm tentative in posting this list because I realize some of these parts aren't 100% compatible.
Any suggestions as to shave weight, recoil.
Money is the only thing that will decide how soon this build comes to life and I am a patient man if it means getting a dream rifle.

Buffer - MGI® RATE REDUCING BUFFER W/ D-RING - Reduces Recoil
buffer spring (Super Duty Chrome Silicon Buffer Spring $21)
buffer tube V SEVEN HEAVY BUFFER TUBE - 9.6oz - $117)

Upper Reciever (Vseven Upper Assemply - 7.7oz - $210)

Rail(free floating railed)
Barrel - Satern 6.5 Grendel/.264 LBC/12.7x42mm ~$448

Other Parts for consideration
