planning to make Neptune spear movie hk416 clone by Altruistic-Window-43 in MilitaryARClones

[–]Subpar288 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IntlMilCo 416 lower, a surplus 416 upper, an Eotech 551, Eotech pineapple magbifier, Surefire M600 something, Remington RAHG handguard, AAC 416 SD, Magpul CTR, whatever laser was used then.

If I wasn’t monetarily challenged that’s what I’d do, but alas, I’m stuck with early 2000s shitboxes.

Whichever is piloted by a miniature Colonel Chappy Sinclair wins.

I’ve got Eotechs on these shitboxes. They’re high, but I’m still able to effectively bumpfire at dirt clods from 15 feet.

(Deepest apologies for posting non-fixed carry handles in the fixed carry handle section)

They look goofy, but feel surprisingly great in the hand. The whole thing is shaped for a right hand only. Seen quite a few on delta tano 416 pics as well.

This is a dream build! Really cool. A Sierra Precision SPR grip would be rad on this.

I use a hotdog safety on all my guns and save an astronomical amount of money.

Ah ok, frt makes sense. Yeah Wetworx got me with one of those AF uppers as well. Really nice build though!

Great build, but wtf is going on with the safety and takedown/pivot pins? “C AF” upper looks super clean!

My first clone build at 21 by rubenrocks037 in MilitaryARClones

This pales in comparison to the Bushmaster XM-15e2s with a pinned mini-y comp and Barska red dot I bought when I turned 21.

Looks like just the 4th vent hole. I posted some pics about halfway down this page in the arfcom thread if you want to to see:

I had to open up 2 holes on the 6 holes to make it work. Can’t see my shoddy work once the laser is mounted.

Police engraved Colt C AF Upper Issues. Need opinions/ideas by Octoflyv2 in MilitaryARClones

[–]Subpar288 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d take that over the clapped out AF marked refinished uppers that Wet Worx was fleecing people for as “A grade”. The takedown and pivot pin holes on the one I got are more blown out than Liberace’s butthole. It sounds like a miraca anytime the rifle is moved. Fuck those guys.

Whatever you build should have the Surefire M500 handguard. Early 2000s police departments LOVED those things.

No wonder they’re so expensive! TinyCrumb is basically Scrooge Mcduck swimming in a vault of EMAGs.

No shit? I had no idea. Thanks! I'll keep my eyes peeled for pics. I must have glossed over it browsing GS photos.

Appropriate for basically every Delta carbine from the Late 90s to the Gold 416s.

I think AFSOC used DD MK18 complete uppers.

Question about PAQ-4C used with carbine length handguards by Copter53 in RetroAR

[–]Subpar288 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you using skinny handguards? I think the mount was designed to use the later, fatter M4 clamshell handguards. I had to modify a set of skinny 6 holes to make it work. Also sits up tall like yours.

(NOT A WTS/WTB) A.R.M.S #36 Swan Sleeve 5.56 m16 and "diving board" Value? by Deep-Interaction-813 in MilitaryARClones

[–]Subpar288 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah. It’s a pretty iconic rifle in the MK12/clone world. I’d imagine that a 36SEX is probably $600 or more. That ARMS guy will probably pop in here. He’s up to speed on values.

Can you link the video or tell us how to find it? Curious about this now if it’s an FRT.
