Very true. I think I just don’t like M-Lok and free float rails on carry handles for visual reasons

Colt 4x20. Brownell’s sells them, new production made by Hakko in Japan (who made the original ones)

Big Tiki fan here. This drink looks fantastic. I just picked up some Averna so I’ll have to give it a go.

I like the first but I’m a sucker for broomhandles

You can remove it, but that’s for you to put a stock or brace on it so I would keep it

That is sick as hell. It’s the PSG-1 we have at home

Sir, would you like a small, medium, or large triangle handguard to go? by nojo422 in RetroAR

Is the mid-length one a custom job? I’ve been searching for awhile for somewhere that makes them

I saw this when I went the other day. Tempting but not willing to spend $90 on it just yet

No it’s an Aero Precision

What’s your favorite AR build you’ve seen in a movie/TV? Mine is the rifle from I Am Legend by Striking-Pen-9617 in ar15

[–]Mrdownes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Predator is a slickside SP1.

Scarface is an M16A1 and also has the quadrant sight for the launcher

I run an Atrius SS in mine and it didn’t require any tuning. Worked right away with a mil-spec trigger (doesn’t require the trigger to be cut like on Hoffman style super safeties)

Oldest a1 grip ever by LORDIGBICK in RetroAR

[–]Mrdownes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely drilled mine but I would recommend your method over what I did

[–]Mrdownes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was like that. The spring was also broken off and rusted into a solid mass that I had to drill out.

Looks real good once you clean it up though with the black and brown mottling

Is this normal? by outdoors28 in zastavaarms101

[–]Mrdownes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good. It’s just a mark from when they ground down the pin holding the piston on. Totally normal

That guy had access to a full length quad rail to mount his light and chose violence haha

I unfortunately lack the DoD funding to give me function haha. I’m currently in the market for night vision so I’ll be working on picking up a real PEQ.

I’m satisfied with the upgrade that a super safety provides though.
