AR-15 BS Thread

Really?

Wow.

California doesn't allow AP handgun ammo, but JHP are not a problem.

 

i should've included my sarcasm tags..

i think JHPs are actually illegal in NJ, ....

 

i believe you can own hollowpoints, but they have to be neatly stowed away in your house. "home defense only"

you can drive it directly from the store to your home, and that's it. cannot leave your house

I know you love to knock Bushmaster every chance you get but I have to ask, do you actually have any experience with Bushmasters or are your comments just internet bullshit? Come to SW FL and I'll let you shoot both a carbine and a rifle made by Bushmaster to get it out of your system.

 

Woot, picked up a DTI upper to complete my build! Ready to run it until something breaks!

 

lol I have a buddy here that owns a bushmaster as well and he has never had any problems with his. If you own a bushy and dont have any problems then I am very happy for you. But for the money you spend on a bushy you can get a much better built rifle, thats all Im saying. I would rather have someone own a bushy than not own any AR.

No I have never owned a bushmaster.

 

have fun. stick it on a FA lower and see if you can break it

 

I'll see what I can do . Camera battery charging, so here's a crappy phone image.



Basic lower, with a Geissele trigger as I mentioned before, plus KNS anti-rotation pins, TDI grip and MOE buttstock. Upper is DTI 1:7" chrome lined barrel, 16" carbine-length system, M4 cutouts. Adde a MOE handguard. Not shown are a Vltor charging handle and a Levang Linear compensator (not sure on that one yet, I have an extra but I like the birdcage flash hider). DD rear sight. No plans for optics right now.

 

hows the fitment/machining on the DTI? Ive been looking at a 1:7 middy hbar from them and thought about just ordering the whole upper -handguards

 

Only thing I've found yet that I don't like is the commercial BCG. They say the bolt is MPI tested and it's staked really well, but I;d like the extra mass of a full-auto carrier. Otherwise it seems like a solid piece of kit. We'll see how she shoots!

 

Ive heard good things about Palmetto State Armory... Anybody buy any of the rifle kits that they sell or have any other experience with them?

 

These 2 things don't play well together. The quiet rounds are subsonic. That means less than about 1050 fps. The Blackout is one of a few rounds designed to chuck a heavy bullet out of an AR quietly. Subsonics 300 BLK rounds are VERY quiet but not fast.

 

Oh Wel, you can do THAT with ANY caliber!

 

Woot! Just finished assembly!!! Can't wait to break this baby in.

Still trying to decide on a permanent optic. For now I'm running a cheap sightmark reflex I had laying around.

 

I own two complete rifles from PSA. One is a 16" and one is a 20". See my user gallery for pics. They are mil spec guns and are good to go from my experience.

 

Looks good Seth. For that optic you will need to pick one recticle and stick with it. I had the same sight and I tried switching from the "dot" to the EOtech looking dot and it was off a little.
