AR-15 thread... I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

Sweeeet. YI love the Magpul cool aid my own self. I am also a big fan of OD. Just the thing for Cambridge too! How are you liking the AFG, I really like it. I think the CTR is my fav stock as well. Nice work!

Thanks! I love the AFG. I tried to go back to a VFG and it just felt unnatural.

I have an IKICKHIPPIES SLAP plate and I think it is one of the best ones out there if you use HK or Mash hooks, or just straight sling hookup. Very solid, check em out.

Love the name of the plate... ... looks like a good competitor to the Magpul ASAP. Does it allow a collapsible stock to collapse completely?

 

[beaker]

Nice Job! How do you like the MI fore grip?

My first build. The stock is 4 position and pinned on the 2nd position, feels great.

 

[beaker]

Well, the ACS stock I have on that lower did collapse all the way. I have a Magpul ASAP mount on another lower, time will tell, but I think the IKICKHIPPIES SLAP is much more solid.

I use a Magpul MS2 sling (surprise surprise) with a QD swivel ring... and I attach it to a Noveske QD End Plate.

And yes, it does allow the stock to collapse completely

hanwei,

How do you manage an adjustable stock in MA?

hanwei,

pre-ban lower, of course. Questions like that on this forum give me a sick feeling in my stomach. Ugh.

Interesting... I may have to try that one out whenever I get around to building my other AR.

My apologies, I had just been in the April acquistions thread in the GALLERY and forgot where I was.

Nice Job! How do you like the MI fore grip?

So far its really nice, next AR i'll drop the money for a La Rue or DD, but I felt the price on the MI could not be beat. I believe I paid $140 for it. One thing that is also nice about it, is that it's advertised to fit a gas piston...so If I ever wanted to its nice to know I can.

Here's mine, finished it a couple months ago. Hopefully will be giving it an Eotech 512 at some point this summer, so keeping my eyes open:

At first I loved the rifle length rail, and I still really like how it looks in person. That said, if anyone wants to trade a Spectre length rail for a rifle length rail, or is doing a build and wants a rifle length rail, I'll sell this one for the price of the spectre rail so I can put that on. I feel like the barrel was a little shorter than I expected (was picturing a 16 plus the 1.5 inch comp, not a 14.5 plus the 1.5 inch comp)and it may just look a little better. Feel free to let me know your thoughts on it though.

[oneton]

here mine as it sits now minus my harus by-pod ..im thinking about witching the stock out for a skeleton stock and putting a 4-12power scope on it.

 

[skol]

Scope for my newest AR finally showed up after being on backorder for 2 months. BCM upper/lower NF NXS.

Sweet! Where did you order the scope from? What are the specs on the rifle? I'm still waiting on fund-age for the same scope for my SPR build.

 

[skol]

NightForce 2.5 - 10 X 32 Scope with Zero Stop-MilDot and LT104 QD Mount mount combo from larue along with the bipod and mount combo. Standard BCM lower and a BCM 16" Mid Length upper w/ Midwest Industries T-12".

Defensive carbine, version 1

Last fall there was an article in one of the popular gun magazines describing the ideal features of a defensive carbine. The main attributes were "small" and "light." Here is my first attempt (winter time build) to achieve this.

Can you name all of the components and/or features?

 

[Mack]

Defensive carbine, version 2

This is actually almost identical to the sample build in the magazine article. The reason this is version 2 is that it took me a lot longer to get some of the parts I needed.

Again, can you name the key components and why they were chosen?

Is that lower+grip+stock one piece?

Is that lower+grip+stock one piece?

Looks like a Cav Arms setup.

 

[beaker]

Mack,

What is the all up weight? Whose pencil barrel is that, bushy?

Thx

In case anyone interested how they fit on M&P15ORC

I love my YHM QD sights. How do you like them?

 

[PhishPhood]

I love my YHM QD sights. How do you like them?

I like them very much. It was a choice between Troy and YHM and they just felt as better fit for a rifle that I am building at the moment. Plus its a local company, which is nice. Will be taking them to the range this weekend.

 

[Mack]

Is that lower+grip+stock one piece?

Yes, it's a CAV-15 lower. The manufacturer, Cavalary Arms, got out of the firearms business but the rights were sold to Sabre Defence who sell a rifle called the "Light Sabre" based on this lower:
http://www.sabredefence.com/products.php#products/lightSabre

You can get the stripped lowers from Brownells:

[Mack]

I don't have an accurate scale to weigh these but they're very light and quick to the shoulder. I ordered the pencil barrel (0.625" gas block) from a company in Texas but it took me almost a year to get it. In the meantime, I discovered another source that shipped me an in-stock barrel in 4 days:
http://www.dezarms.com/
They were very efficient and a pleasure to do business with.

BTW, the muzzle device is a Levang linear compensator
http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/cid=0/k=levang/t=P/ksubmit=y/Products/All/search=levang
That was permanently installed on my rifle by Remsport Mfg in Ludlow, MA. This is another company that is very efficient and a pleasure to do business with.

I got the upper (with no forward assist) from http://www.lesbaer.com/223parts.html

Lastly, the free-float front hand guard is carbon fiber and I got it from
