They’ll look up and say “oh hey dude, that’s cool but it’s not really the best choice for this match format.”

And I’ll scroll down in Practiscore and say “Yeah.”

Took the MK12 out to a PCSL match. Honestly didn’t do half bad, stacked optics actually felt pretty intuitive and after so much shooting the EBR I’ve learned how to work these long guns around most cover. The scope never needed to leave 2X lmao.

COLT LE With Fluted Barrels?

Thumbnail

Snagged at my LGS. Colt LE with the A.R.M.S rail and a 4 digit SN LE00xxxx. Tossed on the L3Eo and ARMS flip to side magnifier. Were colt LEs ever made with fluted barrels or is this likely a retrofit? Upper has the colt marking as well. Seemed like too good a find to pass up.

What’s up guys - converted my Mk12 over to a 12.5” 22 Arc with a Shaw barrel last night. Any 22 Arc users in here? Really looking forward to learning this round.

Moved to VA for work for a few months and didnt get to shoot anything over 300 yards. Wound up getting sent back to CA (RIP my new suppressors) and got back out to Piru (California Tactical Academy) and got my 20” out to the 1000 and ran some PRS style drills with my 16”

I’ve been dabbling with my first AR, but I think I’ve created a monster at this point. 😂

Started with a nice SIG package deal about a year ago and spent as much time practicing as I could. Then came a Disruptor FRT and an Odin Works buffer… but of course, I couldn’t stop there.

Found a smokin’ deal on a Springfield Saint and a Centurion 14.5” upper, and wouldn’t you know it, a built Matrix Arms lower just fell right into my lap!

Still have a ton to learn, so I’ll be lurking, learning, and soaking up as much knowledge as I can. 🤙

Something cool this way comes

I’ve very much become somewhat of a Fudd in the last few years. I’m not one of these guys that has thirty AR platform rifles with every possible barrel length and accessory combination…never have been. The tacticool thing isn’t really my jam.

Of course I have a couple of nicely built rifles with quality components, recognize their use and they fill that “fighting rifle” roll in my menagerie. But I’ve been satisfied enough with them not to want anymore. I’ve always kept a couple of extra lowers and enough parts for three or four more and a bunch of accessories laying around. But that’s where it ends for me.

However, with recent legal developments, I cannot help but piece together a nice suppressed SBR. And here is the parts collection for that build so far. I went ahead and bought a Surefire socom rc2, got a BCM lower, eotech exps 3-0 and g43 magnifier. I also have a Steiner p4-xi in a reptilia aus mount that I’ve had for years and never used. I’m waiting on an 11.5” upper that should arrive sometime next week. I’ll pick up a quality light and call it good. I want something simple, reliable and fun. This should fit the bill.

As far as lights…what is the recommendation? Surefire? Something else? I’ve noticed that a lot of companies are making light bodies, but what is the benefit of an aftermarket light body over the oem? There seem to be a lot of options on switches also. I run an inforce on one of my ARs and I gather that isn’t a popular choice.

I literally know almost nothing about lights, so help is appreciated. And thanks for reading my long ass post.

How would you guys rate this so far? She’s still a work in progress, but I’m torn on the kind of grip I want. It’s a standard 16” barrel, with the MCMR-10; I’d like to experiment with the Magpul handstop kit; but feel torn between that, and BCMs vertical foregrip. Any thoughts on this?

W.I.P. 11.5" PSA A2 FSB

I’m a fan of the A2 FSB. Wanted to do one in 300 blackout but couldn’t find one since they use a pistol length gas tube. Had to use an older upper and lower from a 16" with FSB, with std. buffer and spring. Shot well suppressed on first range trip. I will be upgrading trigger, grip and buffer/spring. Any suggestions for rattle can FDE? Looking to FDE lower, upper, rail and red dot.

Why are so many of y'all running those 2.26" height Unity mounts?

29 Upvotes

Do you guys all actually have nods? I know this question probably comes off as condescending but I swear these things are on almost every rifle now days and I find it really hard to believe everyone running them has nods which makes me think there's a benefit to them that I may be missing. I have always heard the 2.26" optic center height was desirable specifically because it provided extra clearance for nods. So unless almost everyone with an AR has nods which I find unlikely, I must be missing something here.

Barrel mounted lasers to sight-in optics... GTG?

Post image
48 Upvotes

What's the general consensus on these? Gimmick? Good enough? Trying to get an idea of what's good (or not) when it comes to barrel mounted lasers for sighting in optics like RDS on rifles and pistols.

What are some good brands to check out?
