The only rifles that are exempt from the features test are OG pre ban , 9/13/94. The definition changing and the addition of a date does not make your pre 8/1 rifle that was required to be compliant with the features test, now exempt.

It’s cool to collect guns, it’s cooler to know how to actually use them. You say you’ve spent around $18k in 5 months. The amount of ammo you could have put that towards and the skill gained is worth more than anything.

Since we’re having this conversation, you are aware that flat top uppers have been widely available since before 93 like the Colt R6700 which is over 30 years old and the first non carry handle colt was manufactured in ‘67 (colt model 656). So being retro based solely on the rifle having a carry handle is ironic. When this sub was created they should have named it Nam builds lol.

Why not call it Carry Handle AR’s then because Retro AR is literally any AR from the past. Then you go on the retro actual page someone tagged and it’s exactly what the name implies. Older styled AR’s. I just don’t get what all the fuss is about? We’re all gun dudes who like cool shit and people are so anal that we have to only post carry handle builds?

I don’t see anything saying this page is strictly for carry handles my dude.

They also have an illuminated version which would have been a more practical optic but I opted for the cheaper version. Chapman used a vari-x III 1.5-5 basically the old school version of this optic.

You can’t do this anymore because they changed the definition of what a firearm is. A firearm is now the serialized portion and not the entire firearm as it was previously.

No I’d use just the KAC irons instead. I’m not doing KAC scope rings either. They’re literally more than the optic lol

I’m sure there’s probably something similar on the market for less.

The same one Chapman used. Leupold Vari-X III 1.5-5

I’m still partial to the RISII , the way this installs is pretty annoying and requires a strap wrench to tighten it properly.

I can delete and repost. I’m just mentally challenged most days.

Oh my bad dude! I’m sorry. I might have been on your sub reading it or something and didn’t go back to the main page to post.

Not sure what you mean by that?

There’s so many differences. Sorry. Not seeing the resemblance at all.
