re: Official AR-15 thread

I think It's a Hybrid

Ok, I spent some money today. This is what I've bought so far:

- Yankee Hill Machine Lower and Upper receiver
- Noveske barrel, bcg, and charging handle
- Magpul adjustable stock and pistol grip
- Geissle trijcon trigger
- And the upper and lower parts kit from PSA

I have a few questions:
This is the Hand guard I like, which size would you recommend for 16" barrel?

I need a muzzle break and would like to put this over it. What do I need ti buy before? Just a surefire muzzle device with the quick connect?

Am I missing anything else? Thanks for all you help

I'd prefer this one but it won't ship until 12/24

Also, I think I might just get this and call it a build

The 2nd one I posted was a keymod rail, was it not?

Sorry, ya it is. Go go to aimsurplus and check out some of the rails they offer

Ahh I thought he had a hybrid...live and learn.

Who's the go-to for inexpensive, but quality kits, these days?

Used J&T Distributing back in the day; but, they would let you substitute a COLT barrel, for a small fee.

Anyone use Model1 Sales?

Palmetto State Armory looking mighty fine for a M4/A4 Mil spec kits!

Thank You.

Time to sell my last Pre-ban Up north.

I am huge fan of Vortex and glad they are offering a higher end Holo sight. Pairing this sight with their VIP lifetime warranty seems like a win-win.

Looks like Vortex is trying to take up the market share from Eotech after their recent debacle, perfect timing by Vortex.

***NEW*** Vortex Razor UH-1 Holo sight

Meet the Razor® AMG® UH-1, affectionately known in-house as “Huey.” The UH-1 is a completely new force in weapon mounted holographic technology, and you’re one of the first to see it! Inside the durable aluminum chassis the UH-1 features fewer moving parts compared to traditional holographic sights, which equates to maximum durability. The sight is powered with the included CR123A battery, but also has the option of running LFP CR123A’s, which can be recharged using the on-board, waterproof micro-USB port. We believe the shooter is the only one who should see the new EBR-CQB reticle so we engineered the entire system to virtually eliminate all traces of forward signature, unlike any other red dot or holographic sight on the market.

I think palmetto is pretty much the go to for budget builds these days

I built a freedom mid-length from PSA and it's MOA with iron sights. I couldn't be happier for under $500.

Oddly enough the 1:7 likes lighter and faster over heavier and slower..




Don't mind the Bushmaster case. Had an old case lying around so that's what she sleeps in now.
