AR-15 BS Thread

is this your first go thest course? you could go the cheap route and load up on the airsoft quality stuff to see how you like running a chest rig or a batman belt, then upgrade to much better stuff later.

 

Anybody have any ideas?

 

my 7.62x39 Piston AR Upper just came in:


Now I just need to finish building my lower

 

send them all to me for proper disposal

 

Built this bad boy for $850

LARGrizzly Upper and Lower
Hogue Grip
Magpul ForGrip
Magpul Battery Assist
Troy Mil Spec Rails
Red Dot
Accu-Wedge

 

Any recommendations on a good muzzle break/ compensator for under $100? I just got my upper back from getting the barrel threaded.

 

If you really want a good one for the money, the Miculek one is super:

I perfer the SJC Titan,

It's twice the price, but I think it looks better.

 

Oh yea, these are cool too: http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=2841

Not as much of a compensator as the others though.

 

I personally would recommend getting something from the following four companies:

1. First Spear
2. TYR
3. Tactical Tailor
4. Original SOE

You'll need to play with a lot of different configurations to figure out what works best for what you do. If you are just doing carbine training courses, I would recommend:


A lightweight chest rig (either with or without armor) with the capability to run a minimum of two magazines on the chest and a water bladder on the back. I would also use a pistol belt with padding (First Spear padded AGB Sleeve) and then run your pistol magazines and a spare AR magazine or two on the belt in Fast Mag pockets. Keep your pistol magazines up front and your AR magazines at the hip.


Keep your back area free of anything heavy / hard and make sure you keep your IFAK readily available. I keep my SOF tourniquet and my hemostatic agent separate and on the front of my chest rig.


You'll need to play with your setup with your weapons and slings and make sure everything works. Buy something modular so you can adjust it without getting a whole new rig.


Just my $.02.

^^US Grunt Gear is good to go. They make quality products.

 

Yesterday I received a used Taurus 82 from:
http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/p...PL+4%22+Barrel

It had holster wear around muzzle and cylinder, a few small surface discolorations, as advertised, but, in all, a very solid, large frame, .38 spl +P.
Great for a truck gun and only $208, just checked and they're $230 now.
Ran $15 transfer through Rapid Fire Bunker, very professional and pleasure to deal with.

 

just got news that my BCG should ship out at the end of the month

 

I'm still on the quest for a BCG.... actually a pair of them.

 

i'll see if i can find out where the guy bought them from, we ordered them in december though.
have you checked ironworks tactical.com?

 

.223 ammo available http://www.ammunitiondepot.com/PMC-223-55-Grain-FMJ-Boat-Tail-Case-p/223a-b.htm

 

Yes it is. I seen some Condor stuff around my area too, that stuff seems cheap in pricing to experiment with.

Thats what I'm leaning towards, just buy a modular style rig and add pouches as I go.

the one from US Grunt Gear looks pretty good and Simple.

Sling wise what are you all using? I have the MagPul MS3, I'm not really digging it.

 

My SBR upper came today, I came too...
