Yes it's overpriced, and that particular version is outdated.

Literally have never had a problem with it. Ever. What's your beef?
>>30317131
Aren't those vests something like 50 pounds with the armor plates in? For mobility I'd rather put a phonebook with tile in each end in one of those

Any opinions on the DPMS Recon 5.56 for babby's first AR? Most reviews are of the 7.62 version
>>30317124
Is there a better one you'd recommend (ignoring price)?
Here's a list of various other AR's that I am considering:
>http://blog.cheaperthandirt.com/ten-top-rated-ar-15-manufacturers/
>>30317166
About what I would expect from a Nutn review and for the most part I agree with him.
expect for that shit about the rifle I have no idea since I have never touched anything KAC
>>30317165
Mine's about 32 pounds, and that's with front, back, and side ESAPI's and front, back, side, and nutflap soft armor.
So yeah, get 9 full AR mags and 2 full pistol mags in there plus a radio and the full 3L camelbak it's actually over 60.
>water's fucking heavy yo
I really need to reconfigure it. Currently set up to take 12 rifle mags and 3 pistol mags.
>>30317169
Sorry wasn't thinking that is a good price
>>30317174
Do you have any features you're specifically looking for?
>>30317174
Build one, if you just want an m4gery and don't want to deal with building grab a Colt/BCM/FN/S&W
If you want a smooth shooting free float high speed gucci gun that you can customize to a T, build one.
It will be as much as buying a good m4gery
>>30317170
It's overpriced for what it is and their quad rail is ridiculously heavy, but it's a surprisingly accurate rifle.
>>30317188
Yeah 37¢pr is good
>>30317194
Well other that Mil-spec™, accuracy, tolerances, and reliability, I suppose that I don't care that much.
Regarding aethetics, I do sort of like the ones which tend towards more minimalistic.
>>30317242
*other than
>>30317203
Yeah, I'll definitely end up buying some 80% lowers. However, I want a pre-built to start off with.
>>30317095
The fuck you talking about, tard?
>>30317184
60 pounds total is not bad at all for a chest carrier, but you could probably loose a few pounds. Water is 8 pounds per gallon, so the camelback could go in your bug out bag assuming you have one. Just remember if SHTF happens account mobility into that

>>30317143
my beef is it's shit. domestically produced shit tier ammo. the cases are dirty and the majority of them have dents which affects internal volume, which in turn makes them inconsistent.
and the real kicker is they cost 45 cents a round.
so you tell me how can a company like mke/zqi make ammo in turkey, ship it here, pay the import taxes and still sell it CHEAPER than ATK does to us?
they're a rip off.
>>30317291
mke/zqi directly funds terrorism
>>30317271
hah.
That was my issued armor from when I was in. I pretty much haven't dicked with it since.
>yes I carried 12 mags on me while deployed
>no, I never needed all 12, but there were a couple times I needed more than 7
Also, I had the 3L camelbak on my armor, a 2L camelbak *and* my 2L canteen in my assault pack, a 3/4L water bottle in each cargo pocket, plus whatever many cases of water were in the trucks. And we were routinely out of water by the time we got back inside the wire. We'd frequently do 18hr dismounted patrols with a single gun truck, which on top of the litter, concertina wire, 2 cases of MRE's, spare ammo, the 60mm mortar, and all the bullshit extras that our shave-tail LT insisted we take we usually only had room for like 4 cases (24x.75L) of water.

it came as a complete accident though, i was actually trying desperately to buy an aim surplus gmp dissipator. found a guy on a forum and he had already sold it but he had another plain jane 16" m4gery upper for sale. bought that shit up. carbine gas length and all.
best thing that ever happened to me. i thank the gun gods everyday i didnt troll myself buying a meme dissipator
>>30317398
If there is no optic, why offset the irons...
what are some good alternatives to quad rails? I actually like the feel of the round stock handguard but I also want to be able to mount a few things

what is wrong with iron sights
>>30317487
note the orientation of the receiver
>>30317435
If you want to replace your normal handguards without changing the rest of your rifle, you can get some B5 Keymod handguards
>>30317487
Nothing, in general.
That front is a combo gas block/folding front sight and the rear is a poorfag choice.
Also that rear is on both backwards and way too fucking far forward.
>>30317487
Aperture sights suck, that's what.

It's backwards, too far forward. Irons are fine

>>30317533
Moreover he has it far enough back the only possible way to hold it is to chicken-choke it.
>>30317553
what's chicken choke?
80's hipfire grip?
>>30317533
>Not three handing
>not having three hands
>>30317567

you're finally good for something mek.
>>30317573
I do what I can anon, we didn't all start out as tripfags. ;^)
>>30317563
This is chicken choking.
>>30317603
oh the traditional way to hold a VFG, the literal way.
none of this far advanced handstop shit lol
>>30317623
Eh, kinda.
VFG's were always intended to be far enough out that there's not a significant bend in the elbow (though not straight-armed like TOB), and they're intended to be held with a straight wrist.
Chicken choking is where the VFG is both held too low (notice the significant gap between the top of my hand and the bottom of the rail) and placed close enough the arm is bent significantly, forcing the wrist to tilt forward. This eliminates any stability in your form, looks goofy, and introduces 2 new muscle groups that can fatigue and/or wobble around being muscles. It also makes the gun seem heavier as it makes the "lever" of your gun longer since there's more of it out in front of your body.
Basically, the reason it's called chicken choking is it looks like you're stroking it off, not holding it (choking the chicken, an old-ish euphemism for masturbating).
Any critique as far as function goes? I don't really care about looks or personal preference. I'm still waiting on an Magpul MS2 and may get a SOPMOD stock if I like the cheek weld.
>>30317670
Scoot that optic back one notch and you're golden.
>>30317670
Personally I don't like the way it looks but it will probably work fine
>>30317668
u some kinda vfg expert mayne?
nah, thanks for the info i get what you're saying completely
>>30317670
Move your VFG forward. Basically, reverse the ladder covers on the bottom and that should tell you where it should be.
Check your eye relief, that scope looks to be mounted too far forward. Also, while that rail is pretty rigid it's still not a good idea to bridge the gap with the mount.
Can you reach the switch for your light with your support hand? It's on the "wrong" side of the rifle for a right-handed shooter.
>>30317670
ladder rail covers gotta go, they look horrible and the lengths are inconsistent
that's just an aesthetic complaint though.
like >>30317676
said
you need to move that mount back 1 slot til the whole thing resides only on your upper
>>30317696
>>30317695
>>30317676
Thanks guys, I appreciate the advice.
>>30317707
another note on the optic, you see how you've pushed it back in the rings (not centered) but then you moved the whole mount up to bridge the receiver and the rail? that's silliness.
if you move the mount back 1 slot and then re-center the optic you'll probably have about the same eye relief because you'll be reloacting the optic forward a little when you center it in your rings.
is that top ladder rail black? i just wanted to complain. i hate ladder rails lol.
yours is especially hodgepodge lookin.
>>30317731
Yeah, it looks kind of bad on second thought. I'm thinking of replacing them with Troy rail covers unless there are better recommendations.

My gunsmith was busy today so I painted my marks myself.
I think it came out alright.
>>30318087
Made the swords messy on purpose for more of a "bloody" look. Not sure how I feel about it yet.
>>30318097
Looks like shit, clean those edges up.
>>30318093
What is the function of the magnifier and chest-mounted holster?
>>30318105
As I said I'm not sure how I feel about it yet but it was done on purpose.
Definitely wanted the stuff marked, and especially the safety marks since it's non standard (not safe/fire) so retards know what safe and what isn't. Other side is done well.
>>30318112
I believe the holster and gun are just placed there on top of the rig.
>>30318112
When that hot pile of shit rifle goes down, he can quickly access his handheld fragmentation device and kill himself.
>>30318120
New guy but seriously, swords look like ass.
>>30318120
Nah, holster's attached to a rigid MOLLE panel. Blackhawk made a bunch of different versions of it.
>>30318112
The magnifier magnifies things, the chest-mounted holster is so when you ND you're more likely to hit something vital. That or because trying to draw from a belt/dropleg holster when in the turret of an armored vehicle is about like trying to riverdance in neck-deep tapioca pudding and ball sweat. Not sure.
>>30318144
>>30318105
Alrighty then, cleaning the swords up it is.
>>30318093
>Glock
>SERPA holster
>chest mounted
>MOLLE mounting bracket that isn't a G-Code RTI
You did literally everything wrong
>>30318120
I honestly don't like color filled text period, just doesn't do anything for me. Seen too many glocks and Xd's with color filled shit, just turns me off.
>>30318159
As I said I wanted the safety marks filled because it isn't the standard markings (safe/fire/auto or bullet images). And I didn't want it to just be the safeties.
>>30318159
I've seen some tastefully done color-fill, but honestly yeah the red/white on black gets old when you see it time and time again.
>still experimenting with gold color fill
Need to improve my technique but it definitely looks cool
>>30318173
If I had colors to match I would've done mine in something else, but not much else goes with grey on black so I just went with the standard colors.
tfw I just now realized I'm planning on spending more on my BUIS than my Optic.
>>30318184
Green goes with everything. Especially if you can get the color of oxidized copper/brass.
>>30318187
I love my Troy BUIS. But PA had a sale for $60 rear/$50 front so I hopped on that shit.
Sucks that you have to pay that much.
>>30318190
Green would certainly not go with my rifle.
>>30318087
>>30318097
>>30318120
>>30318155
man your rifle is making me cringe
>>30318194

That's a fuckin deal. Hopefully one can come around before I make my purchase. Just spent 700 on my getting my rifle to where it is now so I need to recoup on my bank account for a little bit.
>>30318187
Buy a better optic.
Problem solved.
>>30318184

>>30318207
Why do you have cankles?
>>30318187
>2016
>buying troy anything
why are people trapped in the mid 2000's
>>30318209
That is what I realized. Since this is my first rifle, I have been doing so much research into all the other parts thus far and the optic was just something I picked up from idle conversation on here.
>>30318229
PA is fine, but when you are ready to step up to something better, ditch the red dots and go magnified.
Well, took my gun back to the gunsmith last Monday and his response was that he would clean it up, refinish it, and would guarantee that he would fix it or give me back my money in the event that it couldn't mount a suppressor, regardless of how many years down the line from now I decide to cash that check. That's fine enough, so I'll get it down in writing next time I'm in the shop.
>>30317379

>>30318227
Their HK-style front sight is literally the best front sight going for AR's.
Also they're the only company that offers tritium in the rear sight., though over all the rear sight design is meh.
Thinking about getting a buddy in Canada to order me a couple of Colt Canada stocks.
Any reason I shouldn't?
>>30318224
I think it's the angle of the photo. How else am I going to get my whole feet in the photo?
>>30318227
What are your suggestions? I want something that folds down and has tritium.
>>30318201
Nah
>>30318200
Care to explain?
>>30318220
>Marking specifically made to stand out so people can differentiate between safe/unsafe
>Grey
Yeah good idea
>>30318242
Because you can get the real aluminum version here in the US that doesn't look like it was made from an alligator with herpes, and you can probably do it cheaper too?
>>30318244
The crappy skate shoes with no-show socks aren't helping either. It literally looks like you go from calf straight to amorphous blob of a hoof and don't actually have an ankle.
>>30318254
The whole reason I like the Canadian stock is because it's made out of the same shit as the hand guards. Plus, it will look unique, which is what these circle jerk generals are about, anyway.
>>30318246
Are you training literal retards in the manual of arms?
You shouldn't need to highlight your engravings like a fucking childs portrait. If that seriously why you're doing a colorfill, then just stop.
Holy fuck, I didn't realize how stupid you were. Back to Arfcom with you heathen.
>>30318246
>specifically made to stand out so people can differentiate between safe/unsafe
Wonder how many people my reversed safety lever is gonna trigger then?
>>30318237
I will probably end up saving up for a Trijicon or a nice Leupold. I need to devote some serious time in this area.

They are indoor soccer shoes and they last for ever. I can't believe you don't recognize them. I now realize you just want me to post more photos of my feet and ankles, but I assure you that I don't have cankles.

Next time I'll wear my work boots and wool socks for you
>>30318246
you think a lighter gray wont contrast against black?
this is what i mean when i say /k/ is fucking stupid when it comes to anything artistic or understanding basic contrast
your safe marking is literally invisible if it's unfilled
if you fill the fire position it will DEFINITELY contrast against black.
you remind me of this tard at the range who kept painting the steel target at 500 yards on a clay dirt berm bright orange.
against a reddish dirt backdrop no one could fucking see the fucking plate ever. he could not understand no matter how many times i told him that painting it neon orange is fucking stupid because it wont contrast against the light dirt behind it at all. i suggested they paint it black and he looked at me like i'm insane.
some people are just ridiculously retarded.
>>30318345
>you think a lighter gray wont contrast against black?
You realize my entire rifle is that exact color combination, correct? Of course I understand.
>/k/ is fucking stupid when it comes to anything artistic
I'm also a 3D animator so I know plenty about art.
>>30318345
i dont really care that much about you painting it i guess, i'm just saying if you want to do something different go with light gray so it matches the rest of the contrast points.
>I'm also a 3D animator so I know plenty about art.
that's interesting actually, share tidbits?
>>30318355
sheit i meant to reply to you, not myself. kek
>>30318357
>>30318366
I'm still not sure how I feel about the whole coloring in general; but my basic point was that while yes grey will (and obviously does) contrast with black, it doesn't contrast as much as white and bright red do.
>share tidbits?
Without cluttering the thread with the stuff, I've been doing client work for first person animations in games for a while now (little under 6 months) and I'm getting into full body animation at this point.

Are you doing a regular mod 0 for your upper?
anybody know the diff between a mk18 receiver extension vs the m4 re's? strictly speaking colt ones?
someone in this thread or an earlier thread told me that my wobbly ctr was caused by using the 4 pos tube and that "i needed a 6 pos" one. there are like 80 trillion 6 pos tubes on the market, if i prefer the mk18 6 pos tube from colt is it going to work better or will i get the same wobbly shit but with 2 extra stock positions?
>>30317103
Not for nothing, but that's 62 grain. I was searching most of the major ammo suppliers online last night, and 62 grain seemed to always be more expensive then the standard 55 grain m193 variations.
>>30318745
it turns out to be 51 cents a round after tax... that's literally 308 pricing...

>>30318948
I LITERALLY have said 3 TIMES NOW the fucking tube AND THE STOCK CAME FROM COLT. you stupid fucking morons need to learn how to read.
>>30318957
Just get a MOE SL.
>>30318940
I asked you a simple question and you chose to act like a child.
Some people don't know there are 2 different tube sizes.
How am I supposed to know how you acquired your stock and tube?
How am I supposed to know a single thing about what you know, or have, if all I have to go buy is one thing you say, and the name Anonymous?
Maybe be nicer to people trying to help you in life.
>>30318957
No, you didn't say your ctr came from colt in the original post.
You just said your ctr is wobbly, and have a Colt 4pos tube.
Then i asked if you were sure your ctr wasn't for a commercial tube.
>>30318966
contemplated it but it's hideous.
I wish they would retroactively implement the SL locking system in the CTR/STR etc
>>30318972
>How am I supposed to know how you acquired your stock and tube?
Because I told you.
>How am I supposed to know a single thing about what you know, or have, if all I have to go buy is one thing you say, and the name Anonymous?
Because I told you.
>>30318972
he's actually so dumb. he doesnt even know the mk18 buffer tube is the exact same thing as all the others
>>30318985
Except it isn't, there are numerous ways to make a receiver extension hence my preference for colt's.
Forged vs Billet. Rolled vs Cut threads. 6000 series vs 7000 series aluminum. Etc etc etc. All of which drastically affect the tensile strength of the tube.
I forget retards are on here in the morning. I'll come back when non retards are here.
>>30319004
No, you are the retard.
>>30319004
youre the only retard here.
you dont even know what you said in the origin post and then say other people are bad at reading because you didnt actually say what you think you did
>>30318981
Have you seen the new SL-K and SL-S?
>>30319017
nope but i'll check it out
>>30319013
I literally said is there a difference (dimensionally, around the pin locking protrusion which is where the stocks clamp to) between the mk18 colt tube and the m4 colt tube.
That was LITERALLY my question. Parenthesis for clarification because apparently you guys think wobble can only come from mil vs commercial. I'm talking about stocks that are properly matched and are still somewhat wobbly when LOCKED to the pin locking protrusion on the bottom of the tube. There is a KNOWN difference in dimension on the colt one vs other "mil spec" non-colt tubes on the market. That's why a CTR stock will lock tightly on other mil-spec tubes and not the colt one.
Way over your retarded heads. I should have never even asked here. tards.
>>30319017
don't try to help this guy. he's better than you
>>30319039
if you already knew the answer then why did you ask it
>>30319056
Except I didn't. I knew the M4 TUBE was dimensionally different. I was asking if anyone knew if the MK18 TUBE was ALSO dimensionally different or did they FIX IT.
Go back and read my post.
>>30318403
You should get some sort of utility pouch for those glow sticks. If you're out in the field and they somehow get activated then you now have a glowing target on you.
>>30317676
>>30317695
Out of curiosity why is it a bad idea to have your mount on both the receiver and rail? Thats how I have it on my DD V11 and I was wondering if it was too far forward, but I like my buttstock mostly collapsed
Does it not hold zero as well?
>>30318345
6/10 blog post
>>30319039
You are literally retarded, do you know anything about manufacturing processes? That difference was only for one production run and effects like .02% of colt buffer extensions. Not to mention, even on the ones that ARE effected, for all intensive purposes it can accommodate mil spec modifications. God damn fucking idiot. Next I'll have to hold your dick for you as you piss
>>30319152
Give me some info on how to learn more about this and I'll ignore how vitriolic you were and thank you.
I'm literally looking for information about this very topic.
>internet is back
but i already beat off.
>>30319270
r u okay? should we call 911
also y u gotta b so mean? not my fault people can't read...
>>30319305

>it's not me, everyone else is wrong
>>30317379
>>30319338
shutup and go re-arrange those boots so the toes are pointing opposite directions. it'll be way funnier :D
>>30319353
i still dont understand why that rear sight is riser...
also why you hatin on carbine gas
>>30319139
It's been a rule that you never "bridge the gap" with an optic mount. You want your optic to have the most stable platform possible, and mechanically there will always be some play between the handguard and upper. There's not nearly as much with FF rails that don't make use of the traditional slipring assembly, but it's still there to the point your zero could be affected.
>>30319365
I will never not hate on 16" carbine gas setups.
>>30319373
unless it's a monolithic, throw that in there for old boy. he may not know
but don't buy monolithics, they're gay as hell
>>30319378
please give a reason other than muh feels
In. Going shooting. Hopefully I don't suck.
>>30319382
>unless it's a monolithic
Well yeah, but who does that shit these days?
>other than muh feels
Looks like shit (aesthetic is always valid), rifle has a noticeably sharper recoil impulse, puts increased wear on the bolt that can impact (very) long-term longevity. Mostly the aesthetics.
>>30319395
Mid length or bust lil nigga.
>>30319395
i have a 16" with carbine gas and the recoil is pretty god damn tame especially when not shooting at a bench. it may be considerably sharper than midlength though. however it has positive aspects as well.
It's lighter with the added bonus of the FSB being closer to the fulcrum leaving you with a better balanced rifle. Your rail options are cheaper if you stay within 7" as well.
The extra gas ensures pretty positive extraction if the upper tube is dirty. Of course this is only valid as long as the proper buffer is used to prevent early extraction. It all goes out the window if you extract early. You know this though.
I'm sure there are other benefits but i'm too tired to give a shit. i'm just trying to have convos with my fellow gun bros. so sick of this anti-gun bullshit coming at me from every direction.
Any got a link to 62 gr m193.

This is all I can find, and their dam pic says m855
>>30319413
There are some plusses, but 16" is simply an unoptimized barrel length for carbine gas. Not to say it won't work, it's just that mid-length gas is the best choice for that particular setup.
In regards to the context of that pic I posted, 16" carbine uppers by far and away make up most of the cheap, crappy offerings, and tend to be the go-to for uninformed plebs trying to put together an AR for $500.
>>30319419
why not use m855?
>>30319434
>In regards to the context of that pic I posted
yeah i know, they're the most prevalent so lots of newfags have them
the length difference is only 1.5 inches, the dwell time increase is inconsequential imo and port size affects the pressure as well.
i like my carbine, it's handy as fuck. i guess i'm just biased. it's the lightest gun i own that isn't a handgun so meh.
wait maybe my saiga is lighter, i dunno.
damn i need to finish that fucking thing... it's in 5.56 so you know akg would be butthurt kek
do you own any ak's?
>>30319436
Scientific purposes. Just want to try some
>>30318764
i-i'm just an aussie..

there's 62 grain m193?
>>30319419
go to wikiarms.com and control F M193 on each page.
You can deselect steel case and reloads on the top of the page
>>30319465
Apparently not. Found my problem
>>30319486
you goddamn dweeb lol
>>30319473

Actually there's a search feature now at the top right, so use that
A2 post or no?

Kek
Is MSD around?
I'm thinking about heading up to the F&G
Just got a fat supply of 223 and it's sunny as a mother fucker today
>>30319502
It's usually fine
>>30319509
like 15 minutes ago he posted so yeah
>>30319511
I really like your AR
>>30319509
>Is MSD around?
why not just get his number and text him?
I figure this is the best place to ask...
Years ago, when I lived in a non free state, I had to pin my Ruger 10/22's Troy T-22 stock. I used a roll pin and epoxy. I've lived in a free state for years, and haven't gotten around to fixing it yet. What would be the best way? I think I should just use a smaller drill bit and just drill into the pin, then try and wiggle it out. The problem is, most people did not use Epoxy when they pinned their stocks. I did.
>>30319373
thanks familia
issue fixed, time to rezero
>>30319528
This one's actually not mine, but I have the same upper except an IR surefire and an 11.5" barrel.
There's something about the way the B5 grip looks with that rear sight that's super aesthetic to me.
Just purchased an Anderson stripped lower for $43, a fully assembled one with a magpul stock, and a PSA upper.
Preparing for times to get rough for gun lovers. PSA's stocks and prices are already changing by the minute.
>>30319534
drill the epoxy out and then try to punch the pin out or is it a blind pin?
>>30319509
>I'm thinking about heading up to the F&G
Going to the Vermont History Fair in Tunbridge for the day senpaitachi. I'd love to tho, got my own stash to shoot up. Any idea when you'd head up next time?
>>30319449
>do you own any ak's?
Three, but couldn't even begin to tell you how to go about Saiga conversions. Haven't even seen that discussed since like 2013.
>>30319570
Blind. As it in only went in one side. Worst case scenario I tap it into the tube of the stock and then have to disassemble a bit and get it out of the tube stock. There's nothing in the tube stock, since it's for a ruger 10/22
>>30319572
>Vermont History Fair in Tunbridge
Ya'll niggas vermont?!!?!?!
>>30319579
i know how to do it, just lazy
love the wasr with donkey dick
>>30319572
Incidentally, the Green Mountain Military Vehicle Club is going to be there as well.
>>30319581
drill out epoxy, get an ez-out and attempt to extract the pin. unlikely to work but you might get a solid mechanical connection to it.
after that fails, drill it out kek
>>30319589
Royalton, nig.
>>30319572
Not sure, next Saturday the place is closed, and tomorrow I think I'm going to see my Dad.
>>30319589
Fucking right Vermont
>>30319607
>>30319609
Bennington.
>>30319606
Will try that, thank you.
>>30319609

What the fuck, why?
>>30319622
good luck, post pics
>>30319622
>Bennington.
Nigga you are -way- too close to NY to be comfortable.
What's the appropriate distance to sight in your irons and red dot?
>>30319529
Because that's gay as shit you fucking fag.
>>30319622
Dirty fucking Southerner
>>30319628
Yeah check the website before you go, private function. Stupid ass shit. Retards throw parties there and don't even fucking shoot.
>>30319638
I grew up in Upstate NY so being 20 minutes from the border is nice. There's a lot of nice places there, but it's just not someplace I'll ever live in.
>>30319648
Yeah yeah yeah.
Bennington is a shithole, too.
>>30319641
If I zero at 50 I hold tight at 100 and slightly low at 200
>>30319645
indeed
>>30319648
That makes me wonder what Sunday'll be like...
>>30319645
says the goat boy poster. I bet if he was asrieal you would totally be okay with him texting you
>>30319645
Fits your standard behavior pretty well then.
