AR-15 BS Thread

Started to put together the ar10 lower. Need to rattle can the takedown pins. Idk why I don't mind the black phase 5 bolt release but the black pins bug me. Buffer kit gets here this week. Holding out for the magpul prs lite stock to be released and aero to restock the fluted SS 18 inch upper

 

I had same problem. I bought a new barrel because it was cheaper than an AGB. And AGB are a maintenance cleaning nightmare.

 

Finished it up. I couldn't use the Strike Industry short buffer b/c it has it's own buffer and it wouldn't play nice with the 17 Designs own buffer.







I stuck the SI buffer kit on my Aero lower that has my 410 upper on it.

 

FYI if anyone is interested in Swampfox optics they offer a 30% discount for Millitary, veterans, LEO, firefighters and first responders. You have to jump through a couple of small hoops like starting an account and providing some ID that verifies what you are but worth it to me. I'm still waiting on my verification and I will place my order. I have two of their optics already and have no complaints.

 

What kind of safety selector is that?

 

Edit: Jokes aside it looks like a slick push button switch, interesting.

 

my Fightlite Raider has something similar, and there's a couple companies that make them. When you think about other types of firearms like the 870, 10/22, and Marlins that have those safeties, it makes you wonder why the idea didn't come about before. Similar manual of arms as those other rifles.

 

True

 

Top one is my fresh build. 80% lower with a PSA 11.5 upper. The LPVO is coming off and a sig romeo5 is going on Thursday. The rifle is a ruger lower with miss matched upper parts optic sucks on that so it might get the LPVO or might order something else.

 

Elftmann ASS
I run them on all my AR lowers

Edit, here's the sale. I've found them cheaper though.

OK I just watched a video and they said the ATF is backing off of pistol braces. Is this true? I hadn't seen anything else

 

So... you have a SI short buffer for sale? Because I may know a guy who has been eyeing one.

 

No. I swapped it onto an Aero lower. Wing Tactical has them in stock. I really do like it. It's perfect for a pistol build.



And a cute buffer to go with

 

Wouldn't shock me the bump stock court decision basically handcuffed them from legally making up their own interpretation of laws and using chevron deference

 

Ah, I see that now. That's what I get for multitasking.

 

I need to reach out to 17 Designs and Strike Industry to see if they will work together.

I made the assumptiom the 17 buffer and the SI spring won'twork together. I may play with them today and see.

 

3 down, 4 to go I only have plans for 1 more, the others will just be set aside.

 

Finished this new upper this weekend.
Ballistic Advantage Enhanced upper and Hanson 16" Midlength
Geissele MK14 rail
Aero BCG and Radian Charging Handle

 

Love the Aero enhanced lowers

 

Got the approval for the discount on the optics I wanted and got it ordered along with the mount! It's been a while I have had the rifle built for a few months just waiting for the right time to order. With the discount I got the optic and mount for less than what just the optic was priceed at
