AR-15 BS Thread

I'm going to add a 4lb Velocity Trigger soon. I have one on my 13.7 5.56 and love it.

 

Sounds like it’ll be a good shooter! I’ve been a big fan of my Wilson combat 2 stage on my carbine. The pistol has the fostech (Fun, not by any means the pull of a nice drop in though)

 

Built my pistol today. Runs like a champ. Just need to pick out a optic for it.

 

I am trying to hold my spending down - have a big vacation coming up and have been bleeding money for gun parts this summer. I will eventually put something else on the AR Pistol I won but wanted something to work with in the meantime. So, I grabbed a cheap $35 Red/Green Dot and slapped it on. I have to say that it is holding its zero at this point.

 

So I have my first lower built which I got a magpul kit with a SB3 brace from PSA. It’s a Spikes lower. Everything built minus tightening the pistol grip screw. I cannot get that thing more than a couple turns. Any advice? I’ve seen people say crank it but it’s a flathead that I can’t really crank.

 

put er on already... cant wait to try it out

 

Have you tried putting in the screw without the grip just to ensure the threads on it/the lower aren't screwed up? Any signs of cross threading on the screw?

 

2 years?? About time. Which model is that?

^ That's the first thing I'd do. Check it without the grip. If the threads are damaged, you need a 1/4 -28 tap. If you need/want to change the bolt to a hex head, they're 1" long.

 

The Troy fast attach, got it at nram 2016. It’s the 4th one ever made.

Titanium of course

 

For an AR, I highly recommend this:

You read my mind dude haha, thats actually my front runner except just the 1x. And yea I'm on govx

 

Its not govx. Vortex has their own direct discount. It's good stuff.

 

I mostly use GovX or ExpertVoice, formerly Experticity, formerly Promotive...

 

Looking for a muzzle device for my cousins AR-10 in 6.5 CM, currently has a Griffin Minimalist brake and it works freaking amazing but his spotter jumps (and everything on the shooting table moves) when he shoots. Is there a muzzle device with only vertical ports? he would rather have one or two vertical ports over a thread protector, or the blast shield by Griffin.

 

Why vertical?

 

To fight muzzle rise.

 

Well, the wrench is a snap-on, Anderson lower and I can’t tell if it’s a bud light or a Pepsi. Other than that, you need to be more specific in your question.

 

I believe he said it's a troy.

 

For vertical, I was thinking ported up and down. Now I understand where you’re going with it.

 

I happened to check ARP's website (considering a 14.5" barrel for my 6.8) and saw that he has his 12.5's back in stock, so $215 later I am getting a barrel to replace the 16" barrel. Now I just need to start the process on getting a stamp for my 2nd lower.
