AR-15 BS Thread

Nice.

Wish I would have seen this one. I would have pushed the button.

If anyone happens to see it available again, a PM would be awesome!

Edit: actually, I thought it was a mid-length 14.5". So, less bummed for missing it. But still a good deal, especially if you plan to cerakote or paint it.

 

Excellent reasonably prices comp.. Kaw Valley Precision .223/5.56 Linear Comp

Similar to the DPMS but has wrench flats for easy on/off

 

K guys, complete PSA premium upper for $450 vs complete BCM upper for $500 vs complete Spikes upper for $500, which would you choose?

 

Scratch that, the psa would be closer to 400..

-BCM CHF barrel

-CMC trigger for sure.

-Fuck nickel boron it sucks. Black forge NiPhos FTW.

-BCM KMR keymod comes in 10", 13" and 15"

 

I wanna do the fast fire on my glock

 

looks like I just stumbled upon the best thread on TW!

 

BCM, then Spikes

 

It really comes down to a full psa gun for ~$650 vs a bcm or spikes upper with a psa complete lower for $750...



Those radical uppers are intriguing though lol

 

bcm, then spikes

 

You have any experience with them? They're inexpensive, but are they worth the savings?

 

I just ordered a 10.5" melonite barrel from them for $99 so we'll see. All the other stuff looks pretty milspec. It cant be worse than PTAC, and it has more upgrades and costs less.

 

i think the only thing worse than PTAC is the plastic barrels that frontier made

 

I'd rather 3D print an upper with playdough

FWIW, the radical barrels are melonite treated or HBAR, and still as cheap as PTAC shit, plus the radical uppers come with free float rails. BCG is another $99 IIRC

 

Radical Arms is being sold at primary arms, so I take that as they are GTG

 

PA generally doesn't deal in bullshit so that would make me feel better

 

Good to know. I'm still fairly new to AR's and getting to know the vendors / manufacturers which can be trusted. My last AR was built cheap and had a PTAC upper. I can't break the bank on this one but want to use good quality parts.

 

So, mid length vs carbine gas tube for a 16" bbl? I see those radical uppers are only carbine, whereas I was going to go with a midlength from BCM..

 

I'd choose carbine if you're gonna shoot a variety of ammo and dont want to worry about under-powered/pressured loads. Midlength runs the risk of short-stroking if you have too heavy of a buffer set up with under-powered loads. Just my opinion and I could be wrong.
