>>30253739
>>30253826
The fuck you talking about m8s?
This is like ARG thread #9001
So whats the difference between Quad Rail, M-Lok, and Keymod?
>>30253913
>blogposting
>>30253920
dude, come on
>>30253826
>>30253954
One uses keyhole slots, one uses rails, and ones uses m-lock slots
>>30253954
Quad rail is 4 sided piccatiny
MLOK and Keymod are different kinds of openings for attaching shit to your rail. Also much lighter than a quad.
barrel question: larue 12 inch or bcm 11.5?
>>30253504
This faggot again. I'm gonna do it. Do I need anything else with this? I'll grab an AR tool, but what else? I want to take it to the range the day after it makes it to my doorstep.
>>30253994
I like my Larue 12", I haven't grouped it yet though.
>>30253974
I'm not affiliated with any of the bullshit going on. Sorry to burst your bubble m8. I like to shoot paper and metal. Oh the humanity.
whats it called when the top of the front scope ring has a picatiny shelf?
>>30254070
Either get MLOK or Keymod. Which ever pleases your aestheticness.
>>30254059
tactical ring cap and a tactical ring rail
>>30254070
do you have a more specific question on it?
>>30254044
You have to buy a lower, then put the lower together, dunno you skilz
>>30254116
Plus an optic or iron sight
>>30254070
quad is full rails. mlok is long holes where the shit pinches in (you can find diagrams around). keymod is exactly what it looks like, you put it in the big part and slide back then tighten. Mlok and keymod are lighter I believe.

What's your budget like?
If you're cheap, grab PSA's D&H 30rd magazines. For iron sights, a basic Magpul MBUS rear sight. For optics, a Bushnell TRS-25 is fine (needs a riser) for cheap. Otherwise, I like Aimpoint's Micro lineup. If you're looking for magnified, that'll depend on what your purpose is. I'd look first at fixed magnification scopes (3x, 4x, or 6x) or low-magnification variable scopes (1-4x, 1-6x, or 2-7x) for most rifles.
In light of the recent unfortunate event in Florida I have come to a crossroads...
Should I buy my first AR-15? If so, which ones would you guys recommend that are on the cheaper/cheapest side?
I already own a Mini 14, so should I buy some more high capacity magazines?
OR should I just stock up on 5.56/.223 ammo?

>>30254514
you have a decent semi-auto rifle. get some plates and a carrier. and your dad told me to tell you to stop being gay.
>>30253493
you should be ashamed of
yourself
>>30254514
Just pickup enough ammo to last you through a few news cycles. Legislation takes a while to get through the system and there will be plenty of warning before it is time to buy if it comes down to it.
>>30254375
If you are in a hurry, you'll spend more, but call your local gun dealers, some will have stripped lowers for sale, you can do the paperwork there and walk out with it, same with mags and sights.

>>30254666
Sadly mine doesn't have the bible verse inscribed, spikes got a lot of flak over that and removed it from future product.
I mainly bought it because of the solid metal trigger guard and DEUS VULT for full auto
and it was the same price as the other spikes lowers at my LGS.
I posted this in a previous thread but at what point does price gouging become "too much"

2012, they poisoned a lot of their previously repeat clientele including myself since I like to support businesses that are local to me as opposed to out of state shops even if it costs me more. It was a step too far for me to stomach though.

I don't really have an upper limit, but I still prefer to go for the price per performance.
I'm not going to be dropping seven grand on professional marksmanship bits, but if an extra hundred between here and there makes it last twice as long and twice as accurate at range, sure.

i'm saying, whatever method you choose to clean it. be CONSISTENT with it.
dont like, hellaciously spotlessly clean it and shoot some groups and then later only half-ass clean it and shoot more groups.
same time every time seems like the best way to get consistent results

i almost felt bad, it was like they were trying to say sorry, and everyone was like 'fuck off'.
>>30254961
Pretty much what >>30254996 said. Just knock the carbon out so it doesn't hold moisture in the bore and don't worry about copper fouling until it starts to shoot abnormally.
If you are consistent in how you clean it, you will be better able to recognize when copper is becoming a problem.

>>30255501
Are these suppressed? If not, with the brake? Have you tried with a bare clean muzzle yet?
i think i'm gonna give it one last, good scrubbing then stick to mk262.
is it possible that different bullet types can deposit different copper levels and that affect the bullets?
also, this straight pull shit sucks, semi-auto is so much more fun.
>>30255516

I have had cheap FMJ leave what I can only describe as leaving trash jacket material in my barrels requiring 10-20 rounds of premium bullets through them before groups settle down again.
This is without cleaning on the same range day so the new high quality projectiles are the only difference I can surmise.
I have wanted an AR for some time now and because of recent events I think now is the time to go ahead and buy one.
I was initially planning to buy an AK-74 as my next rifle but because I already own a 47 I would rather have a different platform.
What are your thoughts on building an AR chambered in 5.45x39?
>>30255531
>also, this straight pull shit sucks
i forgot about this... have you chrono'd the rounds you're shooting before and after removing the gas system?
you should probably just reinstall that shit for more consistent results.
man you suck at testing shit i want to uppercut you.

Pick your mags carefully, I forget which brand was the go-to but I remember there being only one decent company and even then 1 in 5 mags may be best just marked for failure drill practice.
I have had a 5.45x39 pencil 14.5" and two bolts for it in my parts bin for years now that I never got around to building and the 7n6 ban pretty much killed my motivation for it.
>>30255584
>What are your thoughts on building an AR chambered in 5.45x39?
don't be a special snowflake, just get a 5.56 gun. you'll be a lot happier with the aftermarket support.
>>30255584
>What are your thoughts on building an AR chambered in 5.45x39?

>>30255592
yes, yest it is.
>>30255665
Steelcase .223 should be about on par with non-corrosive 5.45x39 and it is the native caliber for the platform. Food for thought.
>>30255643
A Lotta fucking formaldehyde is gonna get pumped.
>>30255643
geezus fucking horrifying christ, that webm
also what do you mean?
>>30255665
5.56 is overpriced? you can keep shooting poorfag steel case in your 5.56 AR anon....
also 30ish cents a round is not overpriced in my opinion? you can get 1200 rounds for under 400 bucks? i know that's not 7.62x25 tok prices from 5 years ago or anything but geeze... still pretty affordable.
>>30255665
The cheapest 5.45 is right there with the cheapest 5.56 at around 25 cents a pop. Except you can readily and easily get better 5.56 for not much more.
>>30255671
Just move on to AKs are something.
>>30255698
For $0.30 a round you can get brass cased M193. 5.56 is sitting pretty fucking dandy in terms of price.

smart move anon, return with your spoils
I want a nice foregrip what does /arg/ think of the magpul arg? I like that you can still shoot of a sandbag with it rather than a broom handle and think it would fit with the moe handguard which feels great for me

m8, now you're just embarrassing yourself.

If you don't like surface rust, yes. Phosphate is great at holding oil to the metal as protection, but barrels get hot and the oil burns away. It is up to the user to re-apply it. rub it on then wipe the excess, the phosphate will soak it up, you can slather it on for long term storage though.

Alrightey then, anyone recommendations for a similar length high quality .300 barrel? The CHF is really what I was looking for, but if humidity is actually a factor me living in Florida definitely poses a problem

The angle of the BCM has grown on me using it as a large handstop. If you chicken choke though it may not be as nice.
I dont know what to buy next.

Looking for 15 inch and light weight. M-Lok would be nice. I am having a bit of paralysis through analysis at the moment.

Are you even aware of yourself? Like, at all?

I have an 8" CMMG nitride >>30255480 that shoots well, they don't advertise the rifling process so it is probably cut or button rifled as opposed to CHF.
They offer the 8" and a 12.5" not sure if that is really what you are seeking though.

The fact that you don't know for yourself shows me just how dumb you are.
