The Official AR-15 Picture Thread

[Semper Noctem]

I looked at Elzetta, but would like to stick with surefire, unless someone can give a good reason not to go with either their x300 or m300a light. Their website wasn't showing up properly the other day too. Pretty frustrating.

The BCM Mod0 grip is good, I like it while handling and doing house clearing drills. It's more like the AK grip I know and love. I just wish I could get the AK's ergonomics on the AR.

The AR feels awkward and bulky to me. I think part of it is the light I'm using, but we'll see.

Man, those are two statements that I thought I would never hear about the AK and AR platforms respectively. I feel the exactly opposite way about those. Just me.

If you're set on Surefire, check out the X300 Ultra. 500 lumens.

comparison attached.

I'm so used to the AK that it's completely opposite for me.

I find the AK very easy and intuitive to use, and it's what I've trained to use for a long long time. So my under-stress manipulation is reflex.

I can't argue with that. Man knows what he likes. At the end of the day, that's what matters most.

I think I have my new 6940 setup completed.

Added a BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 Charging Handle, Troy FDE Rear BUIS, Trijicon TA33R-11 ACOG w/ Larue QD LT105 mount, and Magpul FDE STR. I just need to figure out what I want to do for a the rear sling mount. Was thinking about a Tango Down PR-4 mount.

My recent build. Still have some things to add and decisions to make.

Rifle looks great!

I'm not a fan of the PR-4 personally. To much added weight and the loss of a stock position turn me off about it. What about using a Noveske QD Endplate?

Or the QD mount for that stock. It looks like it accepts the mount like my ACS-L does.

The beginning of new build...

I've already got the handguard for it, 15" Rainier Arms Evolution. The handguard and upper will get Cerakoted to match the lower. The barrel will be 14.5" with Noveske KX3.

Mouzzer, any chance some more pis of the color, my buddy duracoats and sometimes i get in on it too. Id like to do a fde reciever but i agree the pic almost makes it look silver.

Ill get some more pictures up tomorrow. The Daniel Defense FDE does have a bit of a metallic shine to it but ill let you decide when I post pics in different lighting/back drops.

Thats a nice setup. I was hoping you were going to say AGC, ill be there soon.

Thanks, brother. Love the trigger. Very smooth. Very predictable. No creep. Clean break. More importantly it won't go off if I sneeze.

Post pics when you get it all together.

Where does one procure smooth pmags? Are those like first gen or something?

I don't think losing that position would make much difference for me. I want to try to avoid changing the endplate on this rifle. It seems to be a better design than the other similar products that Troy and DD make. Just trying to figure out if is a POS or not. I could use the QD in the stock, but I don't care for the sling mounted in that position.

Why are you trying to avoid changing the endplate? Changing an endplate is easy. Restaking it is easy also. The PR-4 is an older, over-priced, clunkier design in my opinion. There are much better options out there. But, to each his own. If its a PR-4 you want. Then its a PR-4 you should get.

I know its easy, I have done it before. It's a pretty limited edition rifle, just don't want to mess with it much that's why I was looking for a different mounting option.

Nice avatar.

Really digging the Umbrella lower. Unfortunately they have no ETA on when they will be back in stock again.

They seem to be in stock every couple of weeks. I snagged one a few weeks ago, and my buddy got one out of the last batch of them up on Rainier last week.
