What rail is that? I really like the look of it. I've been having a hard time finding styles I like.

FYI on the BCG's when you guys reassemble after cleaning.
Any light oil (Rem oil, CLP, etc.) will be vaporized within @ 5 rounds out of your AR.

That smoke you see on the first round or two is coming from the residual oil in the barrel as well as that on the BCG.

Red Lithium grease on your bolt and BCG rails my friends. You can thank me later.

Oh and my PSA railed middie upper came in today.
Happy...Happy...Happy

Guess no one on the OB was awful interested in my PSA M4 upper so to GB tomorrow.
Shame such a good piece of equipment wasn't snatched up by the OB. And icing on the cake.....my 5 BX-25's arrive manana. So cheap shooting fun ahead.

The Marines Corps disagrees with you. However, I am sure you know more than they do.

Seekins BAR rail. From my research I could only find that or a couple from Midwest that have a large enough internal diameter to accomodate a suppressor (as far as quad rails go, which is what i wanted in this case). There are a couple other options i found that i just didnt like as much or werent quad rails. Yankee hill has one but thats all i can remember, i have a spreadsheet i found that had specs of all sorts of rails/foregrips. I'll post it if i can find it.

Waiting on mine to come in. Today marks the 30 day milestone. Have you started the paperwork yet? Or already have it?

Lots of great stuff on that AR, my friend...Get yourself some real BUIS and a Miad grip and you're set!


And the BCG/barrel too of course...

I'm sure the Marines have their reasons.

I got my info from a former Special Forces guy who taught Weapons at The Spec Forces school at Bragg.

Think I'll stick with my guys info. ;)

Haha yeah its a true "frankenstein" gun:
-Vltor upper receiver
-EA lower receiver
-DD lpk
-Magpul UBR stock
-Magpul BAD lever
-JP Enterprises buffer system
-Seekins rail
-AAC barrel*
-Aimpoint PRO
-BCM Gunfighter mod 4 CH
-BCM bcg*
* indicates planned purchases to finish her off
I've been looking into a new pistol grip for it, but this DD one really aint all that bad. As far as BUIS maybe down the road, no rush to replace those

Same can I'm getting for my 300 blk build

Great thing is you can use it on your .223/5.56 guns, if you so desire

Now if there will just be any ammo available for it when it's built. :(

I've been scoring ammo since before I even started building in early to mid December so I'm good to go!
