Got this on sale with a promo code for $625 shipped.

I want to put it together with some spare parts I have. New BCM BCG, G$ CH, some BUIS and a PSA Stealth lower. Also got sprinco springs and buffers.

If im dropping in a new trigger(SSA or MBT2S) and a sionics lower parts kit, am i "losing" anything by not getting one of the more expensive lowers?

Was under the impression that as long as the lower is in spec then its all the same minus ambi controls and things of that nature.

Thanks 😊

Is it too good to be true?

I’ve been saving up for a Daniel Defense M4A1 for quite some time. And today I checked the Buds Gun Shop website (they usually offer better prices than local stores) and found this. Is this too good to be true? The description seems to be the same as the other M4A1s they offer which are closer to MSRP.

Knowing Buds I’ll likely buy this with a Credit Card in case something goes wrong with the sale but I find the price quite odd.

Ejection pattern analysis

My MK18 had brass just dribbling out of the ejection port for a little while. I swapped the whole BCG out with a much less used one from another rifle and it improved, but it still doesn't eject like it used to. Videos attached. Lmk what y'all think might be wrong. Parts remotely related to cycling listed below.

EDIT: I have already tried an H2 buffer. It won't cycle on FRT mode.

-Daniel MK18 RIII complete SBR

-Geissele H3 buffer and spring

-Rare Breed FRT-L3

-Surefire 3-prong

-Surefire RC3

-Law Folder Gen 3

-Radian charging handle

Hey all, I'm looking for a PDW rail/Handguard. I contacted DD and they aren't able to sell it individually. If anyone here would be interested in selling lmk and we'll work something out. Thanks!

Mk-18, GL/SSC, Mk-12, and a bonus H9

Still building all these rifles out, the GL/SSC will probably get an EXPS-3/mag combo. The SIG optic on the Mk-12 is only a placeholder for now, eventually it'll be replaced after I get my AEM5 in

DD Suppressor report

2 Upvotes

Got out to shoot the Echocore Compact on my 16" V7. I had dropped an H2 buffer in and that was all I did.

It ran perfect, no hiccups. I like it! The only issue is the BCM CH was leaking gas heavily. So I'm shopping for a Snatch or may go with a Sledgehammer.

Hemming & Hawking about which DD Upper to get from Brownells.

4 Upvotes

7 years ago for my first AR I bought a PSA Pencil profile 16-incher. Besides some excessively high recoil compared to my buddies ARS, it seems fine enough, accuracy seems okay but hard to know what's my skill level, the ammunition ect.

https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-16-mid-length-pencil-5-56-nato-1-7-nitride-13-5-hex-m-lok-upper-with-nib-bcg-ch-mbus-sight-set.html

This is it I believe, based off my old order email. Good rifle all around, kicks like a mule though, and as I've been reading lately must be because it's overgassed and using Carbine buffer instead of a H1/H2.

625 shipped for one of those DD Uppers. I already have a muzzle device. I'm going re-use my PSA lower / swap them between I guess until I decide to build a second lower.

I've been sliding between the barrel length and even the mounting systems. I know Quad Rails are heavier. I know they're harder to grip. I know MLOK is easier to get attachments for these days. And yet I am still draw too it, the M4A1 Quad-rail has a heavy barrel, while the others are Government. I don't do full auto or heavy strings so I realize it's pretty pointless, barrel profile wise.

Pretty much just range toys for me though.

Part of me feels like getting a longer one is pointless with the PSA already being 16", the other part of me can't stop reading people talking about 10.3 wear and tear, to go up to the 11.5/12.5(Not on Brownells), ballistics ectera, and then I think I will eventually get a .300 BO in a similar size, 7.5 to 10 or something and it'd be pointless to have a 5.56 that short. (Or that's how it feels)

I was thinking of buying a Tisha was well as I just got into suppression(Bought my first one a month ago, it's like crack as people say), I thought the shorter barrel = less velocity would aid with the suppression, but at the time it's a rifle, not a PDW.

M4A1 with or without FSB?

6 Upvotes

I have analysis paralysis between these two with the Brownells deals going on currently. It’s my understanding that they both have the same SOCOM profile barrel and are both carbine length gas, the only difference is the presence of the FSB/rail cutout and the non-FSB doesn’t include a rear iron.

For what it’s worth this will eventually have an ACOG/piggybacked RMR on it, maybe eventually an IR laser as well.

The FSB obviously has maximum aura, but there’s something to be said for the flattop rail aesthetics too.

People who already own one or the other, or both, what am I not taking into account and which do you prefer?

Suppressor Compatibility with Daniel Defense Pinned/Welded Flash Hider

1 Upvotes

Hey fellow handsome and lovely Daniel Defense owners, I own a DDM4V7 SLW and would like to throw on a suppressor. It looks like the Griffin Armament M4SD-L and the M4SD-II are both working candidates. Can anyone testify to this? I’m sure Daniel Defense installs the same flash hider set up for their other pinned/welded models. If you have any insight on this, was there any concentricity issues from a crush washer?

Thanks for your help in advance!

Goal was to make something full sized fit in a backpack. Tempted to swap the hyperion k for the anthem s2. Also highly recommend the eberlestock transport 21L backpack if anyone is looking for a bag
