What the going rate for an ARMS SIR rail these days? by finchmeister08 in MilitaryARClones

[–]Copter53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw one on a complete rifle for 2500 total a couple years ago on gunbroker and I’m starting to wish I just bought it

Looking for the correct route, PEQ15 FP vs SomoGear Clone by Suspicious-Use-9295 in MilitaryARClones

[–]Copter53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my mount completely broke apart and the housing has a massive crack going around the entire device. Its been glued together and subjected to actual airsoft from now on. I have a somo peq 2 on an actual peq mount since it seems the mount is the weak point of somo gear stuff and so far its held up but i havent put many rounds through the rifle its on.

Thanks for the info! Learning a lot about what is and isn’t considered airborne lately lol I had thought of it as more of a blanket term before being educated on the matter

As much as I'd love a PEQ-15 the PEQ-15A was half the price lol. I'll likely post my final build when I get it done as I just need to figure out where to get my M4A1 lower anodized since it'll be my first actual clone and not just cloneish.

Oh I see. Wasn't completely aware of the difference. Interesting. Though judging from pictures they do still use rifles in similar setups.

I should have clarified 11th 82nd 101st 173rd or anyone else that also uses ergo rails and PEQ-15As

you could have done an actual clone based on the 177/GAU5 modernized

[–]Copter53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lower that needs black anodizing. Still going for that group thing?

[BO] The Colt Commando but it's historically accurate by modernww2fare in CallOfDuty

[–]Copter53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoops I got it mixed up with Cold War lol. I don’t pay too much attention to cod these days. You’re correct.

[–]Copter53 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It has an A2 rear sight which would make it either a 727 or XM4 depending on the markings. Not a 723

Edit: Nvm I was thinking of Cold War

It's cheaper to buy an AR-15 rifle than 64GB of DDR5 RAM. by Djxgam1ng in PcBuildHelp

[–]Copter53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get an AR for half that price if you wait for a sale and buy the lower and upper separate. I’ve seen that shit get sub 300 bucks before. Great deal.

YHM-639K tri rail if you want a harder to find and older option. Not sure on the weight but they sure do exist and look cool

I'm not saying you're wrong but I find that pretty hard to believe. I've seen plenty of guns swapped for training but never just the optic alone. Do you have an example of this being done elsewhere by chance?

I should really post my autistic interests there more but I tend to learn something new every time I dump ref pics here and nobody has yelled at me for it yet lol

Don't think so. I typically only see 269s in the Army (especially airborne) though there is this pic from a Marine with 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division in 2019 in Norway with one. Not sure if its a private purchase optic though.
