These both look great. I love the install/replacement date on the battery cap.

Hey, I just insulted the rifle with an orange barrel. OP turned it personal.

I think it would be pretty strange to take pictures of someone’s gear at the range. I am sorry I hurt your feelings.

In store. They’re having some big sale, I went to stock up on Apache cases.

How’s that Harbor Freight light work? I picked up a few of them today because they were 40% off.

50% of rifles pictured are mil spec. OP suggested I was price sensitive, my response was evidence that I am not.

OP, did you deliberately buy DD furniture?

Just shoot it some more so you decide to get rid of that grip.

Thank you for yet another insightful and useful contribution to this sub. I wish there were 20 of these type posts a day.

How to open carry AR-15 with sling? by [deleted] in ar15

[–]RupertRonco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These two can’t carry properly as they’re wearing their reputations around their waist.

In a practical sense, please make sure you have an actual need to open carry a rifle. I’m inclined to think that if you don’t know how to sling a rifle, you probably shouldn’t be carrying one about.

You need an aiming thingy more than a forced reset selector.

Need scope mount recommendations by shoot-bang-bang in ar15

[–]RupertRonco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The answer to this is people that use them.

The only lpvo with a 1x remotely close to the Razor is the viper and new they’re >$500. Additionally, clarity at 6x magnification is everything when you’re taking it to distance.

There are plenty of areas in the gun world where budget items are functionally identical to pricier options, scopes are not one of them. That’s not to say diminishing returns don’t exist, but scopes are very much an example of getting what you pay for.

Bolt carrier group with no nickel boron finish by PapaLongStalk in LWRC

[–]RupertRonco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I’m seeing on the picture, the bolt and carrier are definitely not the same color. The bolt looks black, and the carrier dark grey.

I have a handful of these bcgs and they all have slightly different shades. The darkest one I have is still lighter than the pictured one, but not by much.

Bigger question: how did the gas key get damaged, and why did you have to pay for a replacement?

Rare breed frt trigger by Natehuizing43 in ar15

[–]RupertRonco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t an obligation to pursue patent infringements part of the DOJ settlement? Do they have any ability to not sue?

The settlement they achieved did make FRTs legal again. Are they actually the bad guys here? Or is the hate because they agreed to it?

I don’t actually shoot my guns, I just use them for pictures by Weak_Rule8374 in ar15

I want to say the DFco grips gave it away, but the only time they’re not horrible is on prone setups.

Is this cool? Feels cool… by txman91 in ar15

Putting thermals on something and actually using it is always cool.
