AR-15 and M-16 Show And Tell

[seedubs1]

Been a while since the last family picture. Almost have them exactly how I want them.....

 

[warthog]

Not the whole family, just my Ruger SR556 and my "Space" Rifle that I assembled, I wanted something that would look like it was in a SciFi movie and this was what I was able to do, gonna get it Ceracoated eventually but for now it is a nice shooter as is…

How's the blast off that JP tank brake on the shorter barrel?

 

[warthog]

Seems like it is OK tome, not a problem. Doesn't make the dust fly or anything like that…

Very nice! I still haven't ordered one yet, but I did get the gun out.

MK12 sexyness right there I am going to go play with it next week in the evenings when there aren't many people there, since I have to do paperwork for my surefire socom thats hitting their door next thursday, supposedly its one of the best/quietest 556 cans out there, cant wait to try! Gives me an excuse to sight in those really expensive iron sights on that gun that have done nothing but look good

I have all the pieces that are extremely hard to get for a MOD 0, like the ARMS PEQ swan sleeve, so may have to put one like yours together soon....

I am proud of my build. It was really easy. Front take down pin was a pain. I did have an issue with the Gas Block. I didn't tighten it down enough. Found out quickly when it became a bolt action AR. Also learned not to let kids touch the optics. I gotta go set the crosshairs. I should only have to lower it a bit. Have to pick up my 20 gauge today. Mossberg 500. Then pay off my SD40VE. Decided my PT101 AF is going to be expensive to fix the rear sight. I am thinking of doing an AR Pistol Build. Got some ideas in my head for the colors. Thought about supporting our Boys in Blue. Blue M-Lok or Key Mod Hand Guard. Blue grip, then a black angled fore grip. I was thinking a black lower with a badge and having a blue line going through. Maybe let it say I Support our Boys in Blue! Not sure about the upper. I will go for a Stainless barrel. I have some other ideas as well.

Also learned you can't set the sights very well at 25 feet. 75 feet was much better, and more accurate for me. I absolutely loved shooting this beast.

GOT TO play with my toys today! First real chance I've ever had shooting all suppressed. Small rifle bag so shared a lower

How was the AEM5? I'm really curious?

I don't have tons to compare it to, but it was QUIET. That can and rifle make an amazing combo, super smooth, and quieter than the RC. I'm gonna go try it again when my knights nt4 comes in and compare.

I love iron sights and K.I.S.S functionality...

Six Dutch AR10s

1) Transitional AR10 semi-auto
2) Transitional full-auto AR10, C&R, nearly unfired
3) Portuguese full-auto AR10, C&R, unfired, w/ bipod
4) Portuguese AR10 semi-auto, on Hahn rewelded lower
5) Guatemalan AR10 semi-auto, on specialty Arms lower
6) Sudanese AR10 semi-auto, scope-ready carry handle, on specialty Arms lower

Whoa whoa whoa hold up. A FA AR10 as C&R.

Tell me more.

A C&R MG is still subject to the NFA. The benefits of it being C&R are as follows:
1) Transfers directly to the C&R licence holder even from out of state. Still takes 10 months to transfer though.
2) Can transport across state lines with no Fed paperwork.

Yeah - I knew about the direct transfer and state lines thing, it just never occurred to me that there'd be FA stuff on that list!

Mind. Blown.

How do they shoot?

HHollow,
Amazing collection! What are the red things on the end of the barrels?

 

[HHollow]

The registry is full of C&R guns and more are becoming C&R every day. Anything 50 years old is C&R and the earliest M16s have joined the club.

The red thingys are blank fire adaptors. They are fairly easy to get for the Portuguese and Transitionals but scarce as heck for the Guatemalan and Sudanese AR10s.

The Portuguese AR10 MG is unfired and it would be a crime to fire it now. Eventually I will get one like it that has been fired. The Trantional MG will be shot by me some day, but not in the near future. The semi-autos shoot well and the heavier Portuguese is predictably mpore stable than the lighter (< 7lb) Sudanese.

Note the Sudanese has a scope ready upper. Meaning that the carry handle is from a thicker forging and is milled flat to mate with a special scope. See below the Sudanese with her scope, blank fire adaptor and bayo.

And the Transitional MG is with its blank fire adaptor and bayo.
