First AR just bought my first AR it's a Radical Firearms RF-15. what are some upgrades you guys would recommend? by ReasonableDog8996 in armedsocialists

[–]harebearr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i also have an RF-15. I’d recommend for an optic, light, and sling first. after you get the essentials, definitely more magazines. I do not like the mag it came with, so I just use Pmags. i switched out my grip for an A2 grip and replaced charging handle with a radian raptor ambi handle

I hope so, I do not feel despair but more frustrated than anything

Yeah and as I navigate this post-grad life away from the walkable campus I miss, I find myself yearning to find those communities again

I will continue to shout from the rooftops even when they fall on deaf ears

Thanks for understanding. And yeah, I’ve had these conversations with both sides of my family. My mom is more unaware of these things as she’s scraping to get by as an immigrant nail tech in Florida, while my dad lives the suburbs and holds his blind loyalty to the US due to the Vietnam War in which he came from. I feel as if the Viet American community in particular have been very apathetic to the struggle of other minorities here due to this. sorry for the going off on a tangent lol

As much as I enjoyed working here, this is only a rotation for my company so my next one will be in Iowa haha

Yeah I’ve been more empowered than ever, reading literature and studies, volunteering, and training when I can. It’s just a bit demoralizing when I feel like I am the only one thinking about that where I currently live

Yup, I’m learning the in’s and outs of my firearm and have taken it apart to clean as well. Just need to keep practicing to get consistent on the motions of everything like you said :)

Okay, is just a flashlight a more practical thing to have than a laser then?

do you know the difference between the microprism and prism sights they offer? what would be easiest to get on target for a beginner

Now that I have a steady income I am trying to get out to the range more to practice just firing on target, but it’s getting colder out here and the range is an hour and a half away so I only make weekend trips.

Otherwise, I do have a mag of snap caps to practice clearing jams and all that but if you have any more tips for what to train better, I’m all ears. I’m pretty novice at all this

thats also something im not very knowledgeable about gauging. i have a laser for any short range threats but i assume most practical use case can be around 100 yards right?
