AR-15 BS Thread

some really nice guns here! I'm a "beginner"

 

I sold optics for a very short time. It was a non stop scam by the consumers. Only thing I've ever sold that I dealt with massive credit card fraud and all kinds of such scams. Weirdest thing.

 

No shit? I wonder if it's the same for optics retailers in general?

I have a friend who ordered two RMR's and both were knock-offs. It seems to mostly center around the more popular military contract items favored by airsofters.
Tons of fake Surefire crap out there as well.

 

nice set up.... Quick question....Why didn't you just Cerakote Kryptek the whole thing?!?!

 

@SFSMedic i finally got to run some of that American eagle 6.8 spc ammo, I think it's underpowered still, i only had time to run 20 rounds through but I had 2 failures because the bolt short stroked, and another failure that is possibly a mag issue.
I'll update you as I get to shoot more this summer.

I just got 100 rounds of federal xm68gd today so I'll let you know how that functions.

 

We know the American eagle is underpowered and the federal fusion is using to fast a powder both will cause short stroking with our porting. The 90gr GD will work fine.

Also better to just email me at brett@ironworkstactical.com

 

Great question. I went back and forth about it, but the simple fact of the matter is cerakote is constrained by the creativity of the applicator while water transfer offers a genuine pattern transfer onto the item. I'll see if I can post a pic of cerakote mandrake or multicam brb

 

You can see some of the pattern but it is nowhere near as complete as water transfer. Cerakote is however, a much more sturdy coating.

 

Cool... We do that pattern all the time with Cerakote..
It is a very Lengthy process and $$$$$$.
Custom one we did for a client... Got couple other pictures on the GKCArmory Facebook page too

 

From a couple weekends ago:



Colt Sporter Lower
VLTOR MUR1A Upper
16" 1-7" BCM CHF/CL midlength
13" BCM KMR
Geissele SSA Large Pin trigger
Magpul UBR
BCM Compensator MOD 0
Aimpoint T-1 with Larue 660 mount
KAC Micro 600 rear with Micro front
Surefire P2X Fury Defender on Haley Strategic Keymod mount

I actually have a Geissele SSA-E trigger coming in, which will be swapped in.

 

Anyone have a clue how to set up a GhostGunner Machine? Thought it was supposed to be plug and play, it has a bunch of computer nerd info in it. I just want to plug it in and start my next 4 projects

 

Got myself an optic for my next build a the gunshow on Saturday.

Leupold VX-III 1.5-5 illuminated with german reticle. Best of all I traded an erma I had $170 in and ran like a mad man. Now I'm looking for more parts for the build.

And the build with be an SBR in .300 blackout with a suppressor

 

That's gonna be a nice scope, good find.

 

I think I've changed my plans a bit, I'm gonna SBR my contender and put a .300 blackout barrel on it and then put this scope on it

 

Range day today. Trying out my new rest and zeroing the BUIS.

 

Think I'm gonna order this. I need to get in the SBR game.

 

^ Cool. Specs look great - how much more than a Colt 6933?

 

Price seems comparable. $1100 ish from what I understand. I was considering the Colt, however I don't want the 10.3" barrel really. From what I've read 11.5"-12.5" is a better all around setup with a carbine gas barrel.

 

Just got off the phone with them. $999 is the price for that rifle but they are now shipping 11.5" barrels instead of 12.5" which is fine with me. I also found a dealer an hour away in Richmond who will be getting some in stock soon.

 

Yeah, I'd love a 12.5", but...

$999 is killer!
