AR confessions: I actually like the aesthetics of non-shit tier quadrails
>>30179806
Why'd you decide to go with BCM marked upper receiver and BCG on that build?
>>30179819
dd quad rails are the only exception for me. they feel great
>>30179784

You said urx 4 mlok and my budget went into the trash... i don't know if i can even be mad
i just have to decide 14.5 stealth barrel vs 16 predatar
not too aesthetic of a rifle but this picture is fucking aesthetic as hell
>>30179784
that's a nice rock you got there...
>>30179928

>>30179928
or something
That one day we put 24lbs of kaboom together
>>30178398
Yes. The router is actually built for side loading- while drill presses are not. In an HS shop class a few years back, I saw someone sideload a drillpress on oak, and they sent the chuck flying (it ended up denting and chipping a 2x4 in the back of the room).
While this probably wont happen to you, it can; and even if it doesnt, it's bad for the drillpress, and its bearings. You should take care of your tools. Plus, you can buy a decent router on craigslist for like 30-40 bucks.
>>30179784
What do you guys think of the ALG Defense ACT trigger? Thinking about getting one for my build. For the price I like it more than my Geiselle.
>>30180005

also did you blow any body parts off?
>>30179928

>>30180036
No, we didn't put it in anything other than a 25lb chlorine bucket, minimal shrapnel, and stood about 150 yards back. Sheriffs department paid me a visit though, along with the fire department

I really can't tell the difference between the ACT and a standard milspec. Maybe a bit smoother, but that could be psychological.
I love my geissele's though.

Any comments on slings? I'm tryin to decide what sling to pick up for my AR.

I could. The ACT seemed more consistent. The regular one felt just like the ACT 3/4 of the time, but that 1/4 it had some creep to it. The ACT is only $20 more.

>>30180826
It's pretty nice. Better eye relief than the TA31 at the price of less magnification, but in my opinion I prefer x3 to x4. I've taken it out as far as 400-500m and it's held up pretty damn well at that range. If I had the choice between a TA31 and a TA33, I'd probably go with the TA33 all over again.

I need to go a bit more Gucci, like getting a Bobro mount for the TA02. I also need to swap out the flash hider for a SilencerCo one once my Saker is out of NFA jail.
But thanks. I try to make my rifles aesthetic and functional. Even the lightweight build I'm doing right now.

>>30181157
steel core iirc. Indoor ranges it will fuck up everything in the back. Outdoor ranges...it'll fuck things up more, but i mean, it's outdoor. Wood planks are going to get fucked anyways.
>>30181136
Sure anon.
>>30181157
It's not very accurate and generally isn't plinking ammo but fugg it.

come and play memewatch faggot

>>30180992
I think he was talking about the dead ass channel within the normal TS
>>30181157
It could potentially penetrate through indoor range walls if they are shitty.
>>30181007
That looks pretty familiar to be honest
>>30181136
>that disgusting fucking grip.
Learn to hold that shit correctly man
>>30181178
It's cheap, that makes it perfect plinking ammo
>>30181158

>>30181223

>>30181201
Correct grip? I was unaware I wasn't holding it correctly.
>>30181182
do you have a predatar barrel? if so would it be worth going from a 14.5 stealth to a 16 inch predatar on an upper?
>>30179819
Getting a SG 550 from that gun.
>>30181252
>>30181197 here, predaturd barrels are extremely light and judging from when I had my Burris XTR mounted on my AR for shits and gigs, very accurate. I'm putting a Burris Fastfire on this rifle though, if I'm going to have a thin barrel I might as well take advantage of the fact that it's light.

>>30181244

>>30181172
Ah well my outdoor range is firing into a hillside so I don't really worry too much about damaging it. I fire all sorts of shit into that hillside, it's pretty fucked.
>>30181381
also note anon's thumb placement is as far forward as comfortable
>>30181056
>govt. profile barrels. buy or avoid them?
Why would you buy them? Only reason I can think of is to create a clone of a military rifle. If you aren't going to use the military features though there's no reason to use a military barrel (such as under barrel attachment divet).
>>30181172
I thought it was just steel tipped and not classified as AP?
>>30181433
You're right, it's a steel tip, technically not steel core. It's also not a hardened penetrator hence its dubious AP capability. That being said some ranges don't give a fuck and will give you hard time either way.
>>30181333
fuck thats a thin ass barrel. i might not get one. how hot does it get?
>>30181381
Oh! Okay, I didn't know that, thank you. I always aim to improve my technique.

>>30181201
>perfect plinking ammo
It's not nearly as cheap as XM193 though, to say nothing of steelcase .223. M855 is just a stupid ammo decision all the way around these days, there are better performing rounds that are cheaper, readily available. Not a single excuse for using M855 for plinking (or anything) holds up anymore.
>>30181547
>His tactical background includes six years in special operations with the US Army’s 2nd Ranger Battalion. Serving as team leader and squad leader, he attended numerous schools relating to special operations, small unit tactics, leadership, firearms and ground fighting.
He's a well known guy. If he was bullshitting about his military service someone would have called him out a long time ago, especially considering he specified a battalion.

>>30181560
I generally agree but the higher velocity of M193 makes it hell on steel targets up close, whereas you can shoot steel with M855 at 25-50 yards no real problems. Or I guess you could buy a case of frang, if you buy 1000 rounds at a time it gets close to 40c per round.
Can anything newer than 2010 even be aesthetic?
>>30181545
with no loss of zero right?
>>30181763
Why do you have a rear BUIS but no front?
>>30181560
I'm the anon that was asking about the green tip ammo earlier. It was the cheapest ammo at the time so that was what I got. It was 1,000 rounds for about $200, and that's about as good as it gets around here. My town has two stores that sell ammo, one is a gun shop that sells lower volumes and generally charges more, and the other is a department store called Bi-Mart. That's where I usually go to get ammo since they have better deals.
>>30181763
ugly md, irons, stock, and light. Good job
>>30181663
Well, I pretty much exclusively use wolf .223 for plinking steel anyway, but I do it as close as 30 yards and don't give any fucks. It's my steel that I got on sale though, so whatever.
No real damage except for the spot where my super intelligent friend decided to shoot it with his AK pistol from 20 yards.
>>30181763
New gun owners make the worst looking ARs
>>30181794
Damn that's a hell of deal for 5.56 in general, type notwithstanding. I can't really fault you for buying it under those circumstances.
>>30181791
Newfag spotted.
>>30179784
most A E S T H E T I C one I got
>>30181829
I apologize, I don't follow AR trends too closely. Why have the light mounted so interferes with the operation of your front sight then?
>>30181846
The angle's bad but the light is offset to the side.
>>30181829
You had me fooled that's pretty neat desu
>>30181824
I'm all out of that ammo now, and this picture is literally all of the 5.56 I have now. Up until now all I've bought is basically whatever is cheapest, but now that I have a brand new BCG and upper I want to fire ammo that isn't trash, but still cheap.
What do you guys recommend for close range target ammo for going to my outdoor range and plinking? They have no ammo restrictions aside from explosive or incendiary.
>>30181887
Wolf
>>30181846
90% sure there's an iron sight on the top rail behind the light.
>>30181846
It doesn't interfere.
>>30181887
unless youre shooting fro groups, whatever is the cheapest brass case.
>>30181586
Thanks man, I was planning on putting a 13 in KMR on it but I think I may do something else. That way I'm not same fagging when it comes to the riflle.
Guess I'm done spending money on it for now, maybe.
Also I had to compress this on my phone so I hope it doesn't have ass quality.
>>30181953
Other than a light if that interests you, solid build.
Would recommend a QD mount for your optic if you plan on using your BUIS in the event of an optic failure.

>>30182275
It's a green horseshoe. The furthest out I've shot is somewhere between 400-500m and it's easy shooting man-shaped steel targets at that distance. You're not going to be ringing a dueling tree at that distance (at least not very well, maybe 3/5ths of my shots landed on a dueling tree plate at that distance), but it'll work fine on properly sized targets.

Thanks. Yeah I did this pretty much on my front patio. I feel like I could do a much better job on the second go. If I slow down a bit I could probably reduce the chatter on my router. I was getting too excited that close to the end

Earlier today I saw your new rifle with its weeb doll
Newfag here. Do you guys all build your ARs from scratch? Would I be mocked for buying a complete upper and barrel assembly from say, spikes/bcm?
>>30182427
I've never browsed /pol/ in my life, could you link the post so I can tell that nigger to get his own rifle and shitty weeb merch, or is the thread 404'd?
>>30182439
Anything but BCM is garbage.
>>30182439
BCM is solid
>>30182439
you'll be fine
>>30182347
Try making broader, large scale lines first to block in your form before jumping into the details. That will keep it from looking so floppy.

Holy shit, fast board. Thanks y'all, I'm looking at the 16 inch mid length for about 600 bucks minus the bcg

I'd say it just got 10 feet higher
>>30182483
No, but it is part of my heritage. I am almost a pureblood Incan. It's about the same as you freaky christfags eating the 'body and blood of christ'. Fucking cannibals.
>>30182494
I'm not religious.
