AR-15 BS Thread

I don't really like it there but do plan on going sometime this month. I'll try to set it up. Just need to see how my new work schedule is going to pan out

 

Got my new Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount 2 and mounted it up. I'm really ocd about loose shit so I found a way to thread the wire through a nylon rail section and use it to guide/secure the wire. A couple of notches with the dremel and all neat and clean.
And lots of light . Basement was pitch black. Very happy with the amount of light and the beam pattern.


So one of the big factors in deciding on this light was it's switch. I've never liked pressure switches that are momentary only. When you need to let go with your support hand you're left in the dark . This gives the user momentary plus on/off. I have to make some mounting improvement though. The molded in zip tie guides are too shallow and the ties pop out. I'll update when I get it so it's solid.

 

What lubricant do you guys use on your rifles? Can i just use the same clp that i use in my glocks?

 

That's what the military uses. It works fine. I've been using Slip 2000 EWL for a while now, and it's fine too.

I might even steal the half quart of Mobil 1 in my garage from my last oil change and try that out as well. Lots of folks run motor oil and report good results.

 

Interested also.

I won't say what I use unless someone says it first. But I've never had issues. Soo

 

Ive seen everythingfrom white lithium grease to mobile 1 to specific firearm lubes, there are almost too many different products to chose from.

 

Now i just need to attempt to lube mine without messing anything up

Clicked the link, got an error message.

Edit: found the thread, idk why the link didnt work though

 

Just took the upper and lower apart, it looks super dry in there. Definately needs to be lubed not very dirty though as far as i could tell

 

Here are two great links from truly reputable sources.

I use Ballistol to clean and lube all my firearms.

Got my PSA kit put together:


Group at 50 yds:

 

Just a reminder so you guys can take advantage of this. Have CMC triggers, Geissele Triggers, BAD Ambi safeties etc all under dealer price.

 

driving, so can't search site, but do you have Geissle SSA trigger group?

 

SDC SDE and S3G. The SDC is identical in weight as the SSA except with a flat trigger

 

Brett, got my stuff yesterday, that was fast! Thanks man.

 

nice!

 

damn that AR gets around town.. what a whore....

 

I'm cool with its history, it has probably found its last home for a long long time.

 

It was babied for most of its life
