AR-15 BS Thread

37mm, no anti-personnel rounds, no registration.
Want anti-personnel rounds, register as a DD.
40mm register as a DD.

Edit: I believe chalk rounds ARE considered anti-personnel.

 

Holy crap those things are expensive! Pretty damn cool though

 

Yrs ago you could pick these up for under $500 bucks

 

That would have been reasonable but not current prices

 

My local cabelas had white box subs for 19.99 last week.

 

Stopped by Cabelas today it’s been a while since I got to go. They had 150 round boxes of green tip for $95 best price I’ve seen in a while and Winchester white box 7.62x51 for $25 a box idk ‍If that’s good or not but grabbed a few boxes

 

Well shit, first time this has ever happened. Is this just a bad round, or is there something going on with the rifle? This has never happened before, the rifle has seen at least 400 rounds through it, but never FMJ, I hate FMJ’s.

 

My first thought is that it was a bad round. I've come across this with both military and civilian rounds where the bullet wasn't seated correctly.

 

Remember a little while back my buddy had some shit Fiocchi ammo all kinds of failures primers popping out. Failure to fire etc etc. Can't recall seeing that one just an observation and recal about prior QC issues with them

 

Looks like a bad factory crimp to me. Jamming in the gun shouldn't force it back into the shell like that if it was sized correctly and crimped.

 

I'd first suggest thoroughly cleaning your bolt carrier group, and your breach, then lubing it. Sends some rounds down range after that and see if you have any feed/ejection issues afterwards. Also is there a chance the magazine wasnt seated fully? Did this happen from a double feed where the last casing didnt eject from the breach fully and a new round was fed into it?

 

I’m with the others, looks like a bad crimp and the bullet slid into the case upon hitting the feed ramps. Either that or the magazine has the cartridge way out of alignment.

 

So who likes Taiwanese Retro ARs?

 

How much did that cost?

 

Neat.

Didn't think you ventured out of the AK thread. lol

 

He’s got a lot of cool guns besides his awesome Ak’s

 

That round was in the middle of a 20 round magazine, everything before and after ran fine. I'm still going to clean it good though.

 

Too much

I am well versed in the world of ARs it's where I got my start

 

Wanna see my VZ-61 Skorpion SBR

 

Cleaned the rust up too and man what a difference! Notice the FSB in the first pictures I posted vs now
