re: Official AR-15 thread

I would go DD5 all the way. All the way

I think I talked myself out of the scar. Reviews are great, but I would just cut it down as short as possible and then it would be a safe queen. I would actually use an AR 10, that's my story for right now.

Like I said, I am a DD fan boy and the reviews are great. Gonna do some more looking before deciding I guess.

Thanks a lot. I'll let you know. I need to get that mask 22 that I've been bothering everyone about first though. The DD will stay 16" so no rush.

Any ballers in here have a Larue OBR? Back when it came out there was a lot of hype but I haven't kept up in last 3 years.

I do and tOBRs. Anything you want to know?

I got an Anderson BCG HP/MP on backorder. I paid $89 so I figured it was a decent deal. The only thing is the bolt isn't 158 steel. Would I just be better served getting a BCM for $169 or a PSA premium? That's pretty much the last part I'm waiting on and it's been on backorder for about 6 weeks now.

How good is it really? There was a post awhen they came out on lightfighter.net that some got a .28 group. Reliability was suppose to be better than other .308 ARs at the time. How does it stack up in reality and in particular other .308 AR?

I really can't compare too well against other brands since there are lots of extremely reliable and nice AR's on the market. I'd think you can find lots of 99.9% reliable ones. However, fit, finish, and accuracy of the LaRue's is awesome. They are guaranteed sub-MOA and they send you test targets. Of course, once the LaRue test shooter gets a sub 1" group, he stops shooting. I have a factory 0.31" test target. I also have one at 0.8" but I can shoot that one under 0.5" or better with hand loads.

I also have some of the limited edition ones. These sell after-market for about $1,000 over what hey originally sold for. The guns hold their value extremely well and typically appreciate due to limited availability.

Then I had them all in a boat that flipped, and I lost all of them and my other guns as well.

Get a BCM bcg and never look back

Okay so I got the bolt catch roll pin out of the receiver this morning when I was alot less frustrated...





I tried to reshape the pin but it still has alot of deformities. I can go to a LGS and pick one of these up right?

I wasn't really hitting it very hard. The lips just spread and my punch went down through it. I may be ordering the Knipex pliers.

Casron, Bap, etc, I am starting to get get stuff together for my latest SBR. Its primary upper will be a 10.5" 5.56. It will also wear a 300blk and a 6.5/6.8 later down the road.

I do not want to pay for a mk18 upper, but want a mk18 upper.
What if I bought a cheap arse Radical Arms LINK and swap the barrel for a DD 10.3"? That should be a decent upper, for the cheapest possible way. I will either get a BCM or Spikes BCG. Also, it should be very lightweight with that cheap no frills rail. Opinions?

Thanks. I saw that last night while looking around. I figured that it was priced that low to get attention to their site while sold out. Soon as they get some in stock, it will go back up to $1,100. Again, just a theory.

Did you see it for that price and in stock?
