AR Thread

[skeet72]

NEA's are grey. I don't think real tree looks great on an AR, even less so when it starts peeling off and you're left with white chips in your finish.

I should state I was in an extremely sour mood when I made that post, so apologies for any offence.

no offense taken,your in title to your own opinion (even if it is wrong ) i own a number of "BLACK" rifles and the do look good, clean, but i find they heat up quickly as absorb the heat, good for 3-5 shots max before barrel heat starts to take effect

[Bill999]

colour of the barrel isnt going to affect the speed it heats up from fireing

Need to get yourself a jp heat dissipator, and contour your barrel to fit?

Using TT2 on my mobele

this may be tru but if left on a shooting bench (in between shots) witch one will disparate the heat more efficiently, and or heat up from the sun? a polished blued barrel vs a matt stainless steel one. identical barrels, same contour ect

for all you ar nuts, what do you think of the remington r15?
as not every one wants the "black" rifle

30CALTerry has used one. Its accurate but he's bloody good at sighting in rifles. We had quite a play with it. The camo paint will just fall off it unless you are careful.
The paint is fragile if you don't mind that its a good gun. Needs trigger mods or replacement of course. This one was purchased for 2K with suppresser and looked like it would have had little or no use.
The prices on them will be lower in the future when theres a few with paint falling off all over the place. Not sure how hard to finish stripping it and repainting would be ?
Chucks a little bit of gas out the handle due to suppression. As a tool rather than a "model" gun it will definitely do the job ok Good as most better than some ??

Needs new trigger... Repeat after me .. Needs new trigger ..

there is a fwd assist mod that you can do, for suppresed ARs
removing it and putting in vent. may some thing to look at ??

[Spanners]

I have wood, green, black, camo, tan, Fluro green (seriously)
Don't really give a shit what colour it is to be honest
Black is classic, everything else is just something different from black

IMO the fwd assist vent is a waste of time.
It moves gas 1" ---> that way

[Bill999]

Better to do the poor mans gas buster mod. And use less oil when cleaning it

[Spanners]

Fill the end of gas tube with solder and drill till it just functions and job done. Or buy an AK...

Needed an accu-wedge in the R15 to reduce the smallest "wobble" between the upper and lower.
Gimp suggested I try a foam earplug under the rear takedown pin.
Brilliant idea. Worked a treat.

Gimp - these are for you

[Gerbs]

Ya'll suck!

Now I want an AR

I've just read 31 pages of you lot spouting gibberish, and all I've managed to come up with is that I should:
Buy an NEA15 with the 16in barrel (seem to be the cheapest new), find a replacement trigger, get an adjustable gas valve porty thingie, and suppress it.
THEN I can start spending money on it?

Some people like to fiddle with cars. Been there, done that. Guns are more fun

[Rushy]

Welcome aboard Gerbs. You definitely have stamina trawling through 30 pages

Thinking of a compensator/muzzle brake rather than a suppressor for my R15. Mainly for practical shoots etc.
Will still use the Sonic modular suppressor for hunting though.

What compensators or brakes are folks using?

My mate uses this


I have one of these



His works better but way louder. both rifles have adjustable gas blocks and run lightened carriers
