AR-15 BS Thread

Full length as in a 15 inch rail for a 16 in barrel upper?
I like BCM mcmr rails for mlok. DD and Geissele is probably the standard many use for rails.

Grips: most use Magpul. I like the moe+ or K+ b/c of the rubber overmold on them.
Stocks.... sooo many but magpul makes many different kinds. Why 45 degree sights? what optic are you going to run?

 

Factory ammo is only done in limited batches by PPU, otherwise owners handload for it. PPU is the only brand, that I'm aware of, still producing ammo for it.

Read it backwards.

 

I am, but I'm a dirty '20er

 

Don’t worry I’m a dirty 20er too! I’ve been messing with guns for 40 years now, so I could probably teach them young dogs a thing or two.

 

I've been into guns since about the end of 2012 when I returned from being stationed overseas.

 

I know a guy that’s been shooting since like 1978 most certainly doesn’t mean he knows anything in fact pretty much a dumbass

 

I've been sitting guns since 1995, but I didn't get really into guns until 2012.

 

@Beretta4x4 Speaking of Arisakas, my dad has one that he’s had since he was a little kid. It was his cops and robbers gun when he’d play with his friends. Just this past weekend I asked if he still had it since I hadn’t seen it in at least 15 years. Sure does. Still has mud stuck in the barrel from when he used to play with it as a kid. It’s missing a few parts such as the firing pin, rear sight adjustment piece and the rear piece to the bolt. Other than that it’s all there and absolutely beat to shit. I told him I think it would be a fun project for us to get shooting again. Parts seem pretty spendy for it though. Do you know where the best place to look for parts would be?

 

I’ve always enjoyed them. I got away from them, except to hunt, for many years when I started archery. I still like archery way more, it’s quiet, I can shoot in my yard, and I can reuse my bullets. With the shoulder injuries my archery is decreased so I’ve started back with guns some. Btw I was just poking fun at myself with the previous post

 

Thank you, purchased some just to say I bought some ammo.

 

EBay has been my best source for parts. You can also get reproduction accessories on Amazon.

 

Hornady still loads it.

 

Here's the one my dad brought home from Okinawa. Great shooter.

 

Thanks, I didn't know Hornady did a load.

Mine is a last ditch and not as nice looking as yours lol.

 

D'oh! Thanks! lol

 

You’re not the only one

 

I've been on there since 2012. Learned lots on the ar platform and their ee section has alot to offer

 

What's a good 80% jig kit for AR lowers? also what's a good source for 80% lowers?
