  1. Everyone needs to test fire a 20” AR-15 in the A2 configuration at least once. The recoil impulse from a rifle-length gas system with a 5.2oz buffer is so ridiculously smooth.
  2. Here’s an old photo of some groups from my 10.5” (left) and 16” (Right) PSA uppers. All groups were shot at 50yds. Left group was using a 2moa Aimpoint T1. Right groups were shot using a standard set of A2 irons. Ammo used was IMI 77gr OTMs: http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/gallery/image/10481-so-my-rifles-like-razorcore/
  3. You’re going to hear mixed reviews, but I have had nothing but excellent experiences with their stuff. I personally have their 10.5” (FN/CHF), 16” (FN/non-CHF) and 20”(? barrel manufacturer/nitride) uppers and a myriad of their premium BCGs. All 3 are exceptionally accurate. In fact, my 10.5” PSA is a better shooter than the 10.3” DD MK18 upper I had. All have perfectly concentric bores and run fine suppressed. I also have a friend who has one of their 16” stainless pencil-profile uppers that he has run hard in several carbine courses without an issue to speak of. He never ran that o
  4. My buddy just bought an M4-2000 after I tried to steer him away from it for that very reason. Guess we'll have to wait and see if he lucked out with a solid lockup. Also, +1 to the CNC Warrior alignment rod. I got it on sale for like $20 and it's worked like a charm on two cans.
  5. Look into the Specwar 762. Great price, excellent sound reduction, built like a tank, great mounting system, and a lifetime warranty. SilencerCo is discontinuing the Specwar line in favor of the user-serviceable Saker line, which means the Specwar 762 is very affordable right now (I picked mine up for $585).
  6. A purchase I actually made that got me ID'd once was cement glue, bleach tablets and solo cups
  7. - B5 SOPMOD stock - Malkoff 325 lumen E2/Scout head - CNC warrior suppressor alignment rod - ASR suppressor mount and SilencerCo high-temp suppressor cover (got both for free from SiCo) Also, two friends of mine each bought DD MK18 uppers, so while I didn't buy them, I'm the only one with an SBR lower so I definitely get to play with them extensively
  8. Enjoy your stay. If you happen to pass through the Scranton/WB area, I'm down for an impromptu shooting session
  9. I realize I'm really late to the party here, but there is absolutely no reason not to buy from PSA. Their FN-barreled Premium series is right up there with Colt, LMT, BCM, etc. I can't speak from experience for their nitrided line but reports have been pretty overwhelmingly favorable. My buddy just ordered one of their nitrided 10.5s yesterday that we're planning on putting through its paces on my SBR lower before he decides to suppress it. PSA used to get flack back in the day because they grew too fast and their customer service and QC suffered for it. That just isn't the case anymore.
  10. Having compared it back-to-back with a VG6 Gamma, Lantac Dragon and SI King Comp, it's pretty damn impressive for 40 year old Soviet tech. It would probably be even more impressive on an AR where the impulse of the carrier wasn't so prominent.
  11. We all know it was the Russians

      One way or another, lol.

  12. 40gr 1050fps http://www.cci-ammunition.com/products/detail.aspx?use=2&loadNo=0056 I keep looking at suppressors and keep talking myself out of it. If things change legally and I dont have to pay off Uncle for permission absolutely. The HPA - if it passes - has a provision in it to refund the $200 tax stamp for suppressors purchased after October of 10/22/15. In addition to that, SilencerCo is offering $200 in store credit on any of their cans purchased between 2/1/17 and 4/30/17.

    From the album: wtfbbq

    Final configuration before the suppressor goes on. Still working on perfecting the rifle for myself: - chopped and stippled the KAC vert grip - MS4 sling - Ergo grip (like it a lot more than the BCM grip) - B5 SOPMOD stock - LH safety - Ambi mag release - Gamma 556 brake (this will be getting replaced with the suppressor mount though)
  14. I have an LCP, LC9 and LC9S. The LC9S is a great overall carry gun. VASTLY improved (and I'd even say "nice") trigger over the LC9, decent capacity, 100% reliable with factory ammo and has a small print, even when pocket carrying. It's also surprisingly accurate out to 25yds. I also have a Kimber Ultra Carry HD in .45 but even with the extra heft of the stainless steel frame, the recoil difference between that and the LC9S is night and day.
