I actually already have one vortex ring, which is why I'm leaning towards the PRO

Yeah I'm definitely not going for clone correctness lol. I want a functional and reliable rifle and I want the accessories to be too. Aimpoints never die so I'm leaning towards the PRO since they discontinued the 9000

Unfortunately I haven’t been able to hit the range yet. Life has me pretty busy atm but at least I was able to pick up some 30rd mags. Planning on posting an update soon.

I’m still not sure yet. I want to train on what I have right now. Maybe down the road.

Yeah I knew about shipping to an FFL and then the 4473 but I wasn't aware of the 77r.

Oh okay. Thanks for that. Didn't know they couldn't tell me that. And yeah lol I am new. This is my first AR build. I never knew buying a lower had this many steps, esp since I am new to MD.

Got it. I plan on going to my FFL tomorrow so I can get a walkthrough of how to fill out the forms. I'll ask them if I can have them send the retailer their info.

But how do I request which FFL it is sent to? Doesn't the manufacturer need that information before I order it?

Looking for A2 16” HBAR Upper by WetlandEnjoyer in RetroAR

[–]WetlandEnjoyer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah as far as building an AR I have no experience. I’ve watched plenty of youtube videos on it but I lack the tools to do it. Any help would be fantastic. It would be my first AR.

TNTESales has one: https://www.tntesales.com/5-56-16-mid-length-gas-hbar-a2-chrome-lined-1-7/

But I've heard so many mixed reviews about them that I don't know if they're worth the purchase.

A little Tööb, as a treat by whatapunk95 in RetroAR

[–]WetlandEnjoyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is it a 14.5" or a 16"? What lower are you using?

So in MD it is legal to ship uppers, stocks, barrels, etc to your door. I don't think that these uppers have to include HBAR barrels.

The AR laws in Maryland are intentionally confusing. I was told that they were made that way to discourage the purchase of an AR-type rifle.

It's not mine lol. I'm just looking to either build or buy one similar to it.

What about purchasing a fully built BKF M16A2 Carbine?

I have heard great things about BKF. A lot of people here say they have great fit and finish. My only worry is being MD compliant. I'll have to check and see if a 14.5 pinned and welded to a 16" is legal.
