>>29643348
Can't wait for my BCM upper to come in.
In the process of building two ARs, one for the wife and one for me.
Anyone suggest a good upper for hers? She wants a short (9-10 inch) rail that is slim and no front site post. I was wanting a mid length system, but I think her only option would be a carbine length.
>>29644046
BCM KMR-A
DD SLiM

i need windowed, 30rd, gen 2 or 3 pmags.
who has them the cheapest?
>>29644117
Shes not that kind of girl, give her something girly colored and she will hit you in the face.
>>29644063
Maybe once mine gets in she will see what it looks like and go for a BCM as well, as it stands right now the leading candidate is a Yankee HIll 7200.
>>29644107
I need more.
>>29644134
Gross.
>>29644046
Loom at the bcm Jack carbine for inspiration. 10 imch mid gas is fine
Further more, you don't have to use the whole damn rail. Im 6'3, and I have a 12.5. I hold about 9 inches out. Those last 3.5 inches are for mounting my weaponlight

>>29644383
My gf says the same thing
>>29644388
>>29644371
Well mine cost around $1k, but I went for gucci as fuck parts. With a cut down Sampson rail, and a PSA kit you could build one for around $700, with my SLR rail and QC10 everything plus the LAW folder, I probably spent around $1k.
>>29644378
i s-saw that
>>29644293
Well my friend wait til you see this one!
>>29644324
To be honest I didn't plan it out that well, I wanted to build up some lowers myself and then over time the get the rest of the parts.
Then the bug bit me hard and I have a burning desire to complete it as quickly as I can and get out shooting.

You should get a smaller holster.
I don't know what I'm doing anymore. But my rifle needs to change
1. Taking the light mount off. Besides like 5 dusk shoots, I haven't used it, and with that fucking lantac on there, so sense using it as my HD weapon.
2. Remounting my scope. While unilluminated and having a simple duplex, I have a $300 variable rifle scope, and I'm going to use it damnit. I just need a new 1 inch scope mount or scope rings.
So, qd or no qd, mount or rings? Qd's nice, but why spend 60% of the scopes value on the mount that will be 1 inch and won't be compatible with the actually good scope I'll buy later
>>29644538
whats a good holster for glock brand glock 19?
>>29644388
All else being equal, more expensive.
>needs an extra part
Mag blocks are expensive
>mags are somewhat more expensive
Depending on pattern, they can be between $5 and $30 more than a gen3 Pmag. Converted Uzi mags are the cheapest at around $15 each
>.38 caliber MD's are rare and more expensive for the same pattern (IE, a 9mm A2 FH will be like $50, vs. $20 for a .22cal A2 FH)
All the other parts (should) cost the same, give or take for playing the "find the correct-for-me part" game.
Guys I have the Larue cowitness mount on my aimpoint H1 and I don't think I like it, it's too low, I have to tilt my forehead forward and my chin back to see the dot. I think I need the high mount. Opinions? Thoughts?
>>29644557
I really like my Raw Dog holster. I also have Alien Gear and SHTF Gear that are fairly similar to >>29644514.
Getting the raw dog, I realized how much more I liked the smaller profile. It makes it a lot more comfortable to wear to me.
Good choice for a first handgun by the way.
>>29644535

>>29644538

Then you don't get to see my mediocre spray painted AR and all my dank Asuna merch.
>>29644044
Sweet. What kind of build did you have in mind?
>>29644614
Because OAL requirements, and because corrosion on the MD.
Because I want a scope for my .22 at the end of this.
Because I still want to buy a semiautomatic shotguns, maybe a benelli m2
And I want a USP or a p30
And I want a carry gun
And I want to pay rent
And I need to pay for the physical therapy that made my shoulder worse
And I need to pay taxes this year because even though I make minimum wage, my dad has a college fund for me he invest in and for some reason it's in my name. Even though I'm the one paying for my associates, with my minimum wage paycheck.
I'm not made of fucking money.
>>29644692
i use kt-mech holsters for owb, not slim but great for 3-gun or hiking.
>>29644736
>I'm not made of fucking money.
which is why i suggested downsizing your inventory and building capital.
>>29644749
>or hiking.
cool, shooting and hiking is the only time i will oc
>>29644547
Always QD.
>>29644630
it feels unnatural.
>>29644766
I couldn't get $200 for the scope if I tried, I got fucked on that, and it'll be money that'll go indirectly into a new optic for the .22 eventually anyways
I paid $120 for the Burris pepr mount, got fucked there, won't get more than $60 for that.
My Winchester pump isn't worth more than $200.
With all my intended firearms purchases
$4500 is a third of what I made last year.
I'm lucky I didn't have any major emergencies last year, or I'd be in debt right now.
>>29644787
You can't read you stupid sack of shit nigger
I'm going to spend $200 on a scope you could buy for $240? Who the fuck do you think I am, fucking dr8c0? I'm not a retarded bag of 2 day old Taco Bell.
>>29644845
well, i'm all out of ideas.
that'll be $175 for the session.
Remember children, fancy accessories are nice, but this is the year for ammo and mags.
Couple of boxes at least every time you can and always a mag with every order.
>>29644736
arent you a .milfag? do more .mil shit for money
>>29644573
>Mag blocks are expensive
w-what's a mag block
>mag price
doesn't seem too bad, just save up for a paycheck or two and I could buy a few
>A2 FH
idk what this means but o-okay
>>29644712
well either a normal bread and butter 5.56 ar 15 or a nice 9mm ar. General use is gonna be for home defense, camping/hiking protection, and maybe a touch of hunting
If I can afford it, I think wood furniture is really pretty but it'd be a touch on the heavy side for carrying around the woods. Might just go with a minimalist stock to get a good combination of form and function
>>29644919
yeah, we get it, now fuck off with your paranoia
>>29644987
Oh pardon me. i forgot that /arg/ just pretties up their guns for pics and does nothing else with them.

Guard. I can't start my active transfer paperwork yet and that'll take several fucking months.
>>29645224
how many doll hairs do you get?
>>29645245
Depending on his rank and whether it's a 4 MUTA or 6 MUTA (or more) drill, anywhere from about $200 to $500 per drill.
>>29645088
>you'll poke your eye out with that fore grip

>>29645321
One. Which works out to between $4/hr and ~$20/hr depending on rank and how much of a dick your 1SG/CO are.
>PV1 stuck with 15-hour days makes less than half of minimum wage
>E6 with a nice unit that only does 6 hour days makes like $30 an hour
>>29645357
Would you recommend it? I'm debating about joining the reserve to help pay the rent and tuition while I finish up nursing school.
>>29645391
Drill is just what people call it. It's formal name is "weekend battle assembly".
So you basically PMCS vehicles, and avoid the 1SG or most beneficent fuck fuck games are in your future.
>>29645391
A normal drill weekend is 0600 Saturday morning to ~1730 Sunday evening. Some people are lucky enough to live close enough (within 50 miles) of their drill station to get to go home every night, but most of them have to stay the night in either a shitty hotel or even shittier on-base transient lodging, both with a roommate.
Drills involving going to the range are usually Friday, Saturday, Sunday and rarely do you get out of Sunday before 2100 (9pm).
>>29645411
>>29645432
>>29645439
>going to the range and play on trucks
whats to complain about
>>29645371
same
>>29645429
Eh, it would help. I'm not so sure about rent other than you get you drill pay. If you are married while active duty you will get BAH which literally doubles your pay.
Get a good contract, and an MOS with a security clearance if you can swing it, and you'll be fine.
>>29645439
Last month we went to the range and I was home by 1700. My unit likes to get people out of there on Sundays as soon as possible.
>>29645461
We go to the range twice a year dude.
>>29645475
So did mine.
The problem was, it was a 42A unit (ultraPOG paper pushers that were predominantly female) and none of them could fucking shoot.
>>29645475
Would already having a bachelor's degree make any difference pay-wise?
>>29645503
I'm an engineer in a MP battalion.
Most of the time my section plays with our heavy equipment.
>>29645508
Should get a rank bump from it when you enlist. Rank equals pay.
>>29645475
>We go to the range twice a year dude.
oh
>>29645508
jail/prison nurses here can make a lot of monies
>>29644654
>>29645290
Yep, I got it for my Ak, didn't like it, put it on my AR, and decided I rather the URX hand stop
>>29645508
Not directly, but kinda yeah.
>if you enlist, you automatically start at E4/SPC
>you have the option of going OCS and starting as a commissioned second lieutenant, who gets paid about the same as an E6 out the gate.
>>29645508
If you have a bachelors go through OCS, and yes it would affect your pay compared to enlisted.
>>29645521
If you're in a good active duty infantry unit, you'll probably make it out to the range more often because they will take you out there for more than just quals. Reflexive fire, barrier shoots, night fire, all the cool shit.
My unit doesn't want to do that shit, so they don't even keep track of which rifles people sign out at the armory, so they can spend more time on group and zero to get more familiarity with the weapon, rather than doing a reflexive fire range.
It's fucking insanity.
>>29645522
kek
>>29645563
you should of gone active son
>>29645563
i cant join but if i did i would do something i can take into the private sector. prob the water specialist
>>29645521
Fuck jail/prison. I'm going to finish up my accelerated BSN program and then go for an MSN and either be a nurse practitioner or anesthetist. I will probably move up there at some point though.
>>29645520
>>29645528
>>29645553
Cool. That would be nice since I already have a BS in biology. Don't have time for active duty though which is why I was curious about the reserve.
>>29645563
my buddy does security forces down at WPAFB and he spends his time training people to "run the room" aka CQB training, and gets to do night shoots and other live fire training relatively often. When he isn't doing that he sometimes works in the armory. all in all a pretty /k/ job, even though he's really just a cop in ABU's. To be fair, despite this he hates it and is getting out soon.
>>29645593
I'm thinking about reserves/national guard eventually. pretty much robs you of your free time though.
>>29645583
Wasn't ready to give up being a dumb highschool fuck. Now I've got college money and get to do great things for the Army once a month :^)
>>29645589

Sounds like he landed a neat position. I went to AIT on an Airforce base so I have somewhat of an idea.
>>29645593
>anesthetist
would be cool. providence is one of the largest employers out here if im not mistaken
>>29645593
I'd go CRNA. Better pay and training, less bullshit once you're out working. As an NP you have to work basically as a PCP but make 50-70k less. CRNA at least you make better bank and you basically just dose people and monitor vitals. Better be good at pharm tho, obviously.

Does that On Target app just scan the photo, you punch in bullet size and distance, and it gives you an MOA number?
>>29645722
no you upload the image and input the distance, bullet size, point of aim, bullet holes, and give a reference point in inches. then it calculates, its bretty easy
>>29645733
Sounds like a lot of work. I'm pretty happy with how my AR shoots anyway. Maybe I'll try that out once I start reloading.
>>29645679
I absolutely loved being AD (well, up until I got blown the fuck up). Junior enlisted and all NCO's were competent, officers weren't too terrible or overly political, bullshit was kept to a minimum.
The Reserves on the other hand were like a significantly more retarded Peewee Herman trying to conduct a 3-ring circus. JNCO's were jaded, SNCO's were corrupt and highly politicized, junior officers were no-shows, and senior officers were even more corrupt and politicized than the SNCO's.
Also I was the *only* white person in the entire fucking unit, which was ~company sized, and one of only 7 males.
My direct supervisor, who was a Major with over 20 years in including active duty time, claimed she had not once in her entire career fired a rifle. She'd only ever qualled with pistols.
>>29645611
Yeah, the money would be useful though.
>>29645615
There's a still ton of jobs up in WA. Hell, there were like 3 hospitals within about 5 miles of where I lived in Redmond.

True but I really like the general practice side of it. I shadowed a family friend who's a PCP and really enjoyed it. It's still up in the air at this point though, so I'll see how I'm feeling in a year and a half.
Is /ts/ a thing right now? I'm fucked up and need to verbally shitpost
>>29645767
I don't even know what to say to that, that sounds fucking awful. My unit is mediocre and I bitch a lot because I'm a jaded Spec 4, but yours sounds like a living hell compared to mine.
>>29645770
it always struck me as AKs look like a man's gun and ARs look like a woman's gun
One is big and strong looking and the other is lighter and sleeker looking
>>29645780
your sheets look really nice
>>29645761
nah its a couple clicks
>>29645770
yeah a lot of hospitals here
>>29645780
were you posting on b a few days ago
>>29645797
Thanks m8
>>29645814
About what?
>>29645794
It didn't help that since we were a "theater-level command" we had 4 LTC's, 16 MAJ's, 8 SGM's, and like 30 MSG's on top of a fullbird and a senior CSM as the command group. Section (squad) NCO's were master sergeants and section leaders were fucking LTC's or senior MAJ's.
Being fulltime staff I was...separate from a lot of the fuckery since I wasn't directly in the chain of command but holy fucking shit.
>fullbird tried to separate a SGT as unsat because he fucking broke his back in the line of duty (got smashed between a pair of humvees) and was in the ICU for like 3 months, she thought being in a fucking coma wasn't a "good enough excuse" to have not filled out RST forms
>>29645814
about getting that patch
Sup /k/omrades.
Any advantages of a midlength AR from a 16" barrel over carbine length?
>>29645770
you could go to med school after nursing school, you wouldn't be the first to do that.
>>29645797
meh, AR is more refined, AK is more of a coarse experience. I like both.
>>29645867
Jesus buttfucking Christ and I thought having to dodge the next battalion overs CSM was bad.
>>29645889
less parts wear, reduced recoil, all the cool kids are using mid-length
>>29645858
ooh what kind of backup sights are those? they look nice
>>29645893
just admit it y'all are sissy faggots for owning ARs
>>29645867

>gets one of the LTC's in the tower to pencil-whip a perfect qual for her
>>29645902
I was somewhat immune due to being separate from the command structure, absolutely 100% essential to them having supplies and weapons, and an E6-P.
>we had more field grade officers than we did lower enlisted
It was the craziest fucking thing I ever saw.
>>29645893
I could probably go now but I really don't feel like another 4+ years of school and a lot more debt when I can do what I'd like to while still making 6 figures in less time. Alternative primary care is a huge growing market right now too.
>>29645907
here's your (you)
>not owning both
>>29645799
What's the twist on your barrel? It has to be a 1:9 to fling those 55s that good.
>>29645912
...........th..that happened?
I honestly thought that all the pulling rank shit was gone.
>>29645934
I'm honestly glad I'm just an E4. Keeps me low enough on the food chain that I just have to give the greeting of the day and be on time.
It's also nice because while the MPs do whatever it is they do, I go do whatever it is that I do.
>>29645937
4 years nursing + NP school = ~100k/year
6 years debt
4 years undergrad + 4 years medical school = ~180k depending on specialty
8 years debt
youll make more as a physician in the long run famalam, even with the debt.
>>29645950
1:7. i actually did worse with 69gr
>>29645955
Sadly, yes. Kinda get the feeling that CSS jobs in the Reserves are stuck in the 80's.
>we still had 1911's, M60's, and M79's in inventory
>in fucking 2014
>and we were considered a "high priority" unit for fielding due to providing all the paper-pushy admin shit for an entire war zone
I too kinda wish I'd been able to stay as a SPC, but at least on the AD side it was fucking nice to actually be in charge of some shit and be able to tell 2LT's to shut up and listen. Also money is much better.
>spent 19 fucking months as a Corporal
>worst rank ever, all the responsibility of an NCO and none of the benefits
>>29645980
what barrel do you use pb? I just bought an FN hammer forged 1:7 16"
>>29645980
That's really odd. Was the barrel cold for the 55s and then hot for the 69s? Even then that's just so weird to see a 1:7 do that
>>29645992
You were Federal Army Reserves and you still had that shit in your armory?
I guess if you were all 42As...but good god...
My unit just got some of those high speed M26s to play with.
My section just got a mustang LT who is based as fuck. He's always with us while we do stuff. And he keeps us away from fuck fuck games.
>>29645963
Im getting my ASN in nursing atm, ive come to realize the hardest part isnt wiping ass or draining lung cavity fluid during clinical, its the goddam tests.
>>29645992
Also...
>we had someone with 42X listed on their DD214 and in their personnel file as their sole MOS
>42X hasn't existed since 1994, was used solely on a teletype machine that was obsolete and out of inventory by 1991, and was a mandatory retrain to 42A
Still not sure if she fell through the cracks or ghosted so frequently nobody realized she was still in.
>>29646029
yep. they write them to be hard, not so much to test your knowledge. they write exam questions like NCLEX questions.
>>29645963
>4 years nursing
Like I said before, I'm in an accelerated program which is also no where near being 100k/year expensive. I'll have my BSN by the end of next year and then already be working even if I want to start my MSN right away which will only take 2 or so years depending on the program.
>>29646028
Sure did. The 1911's were sadly raggedy as fuck, and most of them were inoperable due to broken/missing parts. The M79's were in tough shape on the outside but were certainly functional, I tried mightily to get some rounds for them for a demo range but those've been gone a long fucking time from the normal supply chain (and no you can't use M203 grenades, they're way too powerful and the launcher would most likely KB).
One of our M60's was a fucking brand new, still in its factory bag M60E4 though. You damn well better believe if I'd been deployable I'd have made sure that was on my truck.
>we did not have M240's or any other GPMG, and were not MTOE'd to have them
>>29646006
is a Ballistic Advantage Hanson Mid-Length Performance Series barrel
>>29646027
equal temperature. my range is cucked and i can only load 1 round at a time so there was a good amount of time in between shots. im going to get some 77gr and see how that does
>>29645770
KAC rear and MBUS front...Why do? Great build though.
>>29646089
On the plus side the standard-issue rifle for us was an M4A1. Why whoever was in charge of writing our MTOE thought we needed an ungimped giggle switch is beyond me, but they were fairly new and in excellent shape.
>>29646089
>One of our M60's was a fucking brand new, still in its factory bag
>>29646084
>accelerated
so you already have a bacherlors degree.
undergrad+accelerated RN+masters = 7 years or more
less debt less pay, doc still makes more even with the debt.
you do you tho m8
>>29646094
I just free floated the rail a month or so ago and realized I didn't have a front sight, so I picked up something quick at my LGS. I'll probably pick up something better some point down the road. I'm not too concerned about it at the moment since I finally got my strike eagle.
>>29646139
I'm already done with with my BS, have zero debt at the moment, and have already been accepted to the accelerated nursing program. My GPA is pretty solid but I would have liked it to be a bit higher if I was going to try for med school. I could definitely be a solid candidate but it would be more of a struggle. It really stems from I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to do during undergrad so I didn't really take the most optimal path to begin with. Sure there are better options but I'm satisfied with what I'd be doing as an ARPN.
Who else do dis?
>>29646345
thats very tempting

Me, responded in the other thread. its definitely going to be cancelled though.

Should make a pact that if they bitch out and go
>Oh, th-that was meant to be 500, sorry, no can do!
that a royal stink be made.
would it be an abortion to put a bcm complete upper on my colt sporter match hbar lower? as it is now it's pretty heavy and has the attached carry handle. any other complete uppers i should think of getting?
>>29646405
I have no doubt in my mind this is what will happen.
How to build babby's first A1 clone? I was thinking Colt 603, since it's the M16A1 but I have no clue where to start. What do I buy? And is 1:7 an option for the barrel with these?
>>29646419
pls it has to happen. i have no ammo
>>29646424
green mountain makes 1:7 twist a1 barrels. You should probably buy an A1 parts kit and then a lower from nodak spud.
>>29646426
Good things will never happen to us. Why dont you understand this?

>>29646424
You're in for a rough ride since the parts kits dried up.
If you are a very, very patient person, order an A1 lower and upper receiver set. Then get a 20" pencil barrel from Green Mountain or AR15sport. The furniture can be easily had on Gunbroker and ebay, as well as AR15sport. A basic milspec LPK and BCG from PSA will do fine. The flat slip ring for the handguards can also be from AR15sport.
Let's say you aren't wanting to wait the literal 8 months for Nodak to get you your receivers, however. For the lower, you can get one relatively soon from McKay Enterprises. The upper may have to come from lurking Gunbroker. Or, if you're a pleb, you can get the A1 upper and lower on Brownell's that are from NDS, but for some fucktarded reason are finished A2 black.
Little things like the A1 selector switch, dust cover, and rearsight assembly are becoming hard to find, so get ready to do a bit of hunting for those.
>>29646510
Cease all hope and forgone any ideas of hope
>>29646523
>rearsight assembly
i know a place that has em
>>29646551
I think I do too now that I recall, but I can't be assed to find it again.
>>29646551
>>29646562
I can't even remember where I got mine. But that was a little while back, so they could have been easier to find then.
So, my good friend claims he's buying me coyote brown aervoe for my birthday.
Just in time to paint my new precision rifle and to paint my 7.62Negro SBR.

PROPHET BEELZEBUB
Does k mess with 80 percent polymer lowers?
>>29646523
8 months? Holy cow, that's a bit of a wait. What about buying a stripped lower, and a parts kit from gunbroker or something?
>>29646617
interesting
Hey /arg/ should I leave my pmags loaded all the time? How long will it take before I need to replace the springs?
>>29646708
>polymer lowers
no
>>29646715
seems like a cool order for to me
>>29646722
only load 28 rounds or you will have to replace the springs after a month
What're some good aftermarket triggers that aren't Geissele?
>>29646734
>only load 28 rounds or you will have to replace the springs after a month
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.
>>29646735
why would you want anything else?
Apparently larue's new trigger is pretty good, though.
>>29646523
Why doesn't a company make new A1 parts? (besides NDS)
>>29646735
cmc and timney but i see no reason to not get the gspot
>>29646747
i am being sarcastic
Help me, /arg/. I built a build with a barreled upper receiver and now I've caught the urge to build my own upper receiver.
I really enjoy the look of the Mk 12 SPR and want to do a MK 12 SPR build. I have a line on a heavily discounted BWS SPR-profile barrel, and I can get discounts from virtually every company.
Couple questions though:
>Will I regret this build?
>How important is the Badger Ordinance gas block?
>Good gas tube / buffer?
>I don't really like the look of the KAC handguards. Anything similar that looks better?
>Buddy is selling a Leuopold VX-R 3-9 for cheap, is that a good option?
>>29646761
i forgot about larue. ive been waiting for like 6 weeks now for my mbt
>>29646734
why not polymer?
>>29646777
You gain literally nothing with a polymer lower and lose strength.
>>29646776
I just got my buffer tube from LaRue.
It took about a month to get that. At least I have that sweet Dillo Dust™ now.
>>29646770
mk12 mod 0 is pure sex but sounds like you want a 1ish build. if you want a spr you will not regret it. what dont you like about rhe kac rail?

I don't want to spend $240, that's all.
>>29646811
I assume this is a joke post, but on the off-chance you're serious, just buy some spraypaint and paint the goddamned things.
>>29646806
it's all aesthetics, I don't like the way the sides look. I know, I know, shallow of me, sue me.
