Of all the blasters I’ve built and used over the years, this has to be my favorite. 14.5 is just a good sweet spot, with the 11.5 being a close second.

Hi, I'm looking for something like a Savior Specialist Covert Single Rifle Case that will fit my 16.5" MR223 and that I can carry discreetly like a backpack. Since my rifle doesn't have a folding stock, the case needs to be at least 950cm/37,5" long on the inside.
What I don't want is a backpack where you can immediately see what's inside. I just want to go to the shooting range and back without every neighbor/person knowing about it.
TIA

I'm buying a Faxon Ascent 10.5" upper to run suppressed for a tactical competition. Gonna replace a gas block to Superlative Arms. My goal is to minimize weight as much as possible, since there is a lot of running and physical activities (like carrying a 100lb mannequin) and not so much prolonged shooting (I'm unlikely to shoot more than a mag a stage).
The upper comes with a SOCOM profiled barrel, but the same store carries a pencil profile barrel for about $350. Is the upgrade really worth the money in your experience? Looks like there is less than 100g (0.2lbs) difference, so I'm curious if you feel it at this barrel length.
I'd rather decide right now, because:
— the barrels might go out of stock and in Poland barrels/uppers aren't easily available
— pencil and SOCOM have different gas journal sizes, so I'd rather buy one cry once in this case

I know AFAB is recommended for 14.5" and over and EFAB is for shorter barrels. But if I want the maximum compensation and don't care about flash suppression, which one is the ultimate choice?
I can't use a muzzle break as I want to stay legal in the PCSL Practical division.

And also, what do I need to buy in addition to them to get them to work? I read the Arc Fire comes with a trigger but not the whole fire control group so I guess I'd need a hammer, disconnector, springs, etc?

I had this AFG carved out when I made my last post but didn't like the first draft. I chopped a bit off and now it fits much better in the hand.
And yes I'll be putting the grip pod on for my wife as she very much likes firing supported. Hence the picatinny adapter out front.

I can't stop building trash budget AR's in every different caliber. I think I have the same itch that pokemon card people get. Someone help.

Might swap for a cantilever mount and add a piggyback red dot also in FDE. Haven’t found any for a reasonable price though.
All Aero minus the BCG and LPK - both BCM. Leupold MK3HD 4-12 TMR illuminated.

Just checking in with my 11.5

I have a 5.56 diamond back ar15. I recently got a drop in frt and am having trouble. The first time I shot it, no upgrades or alterations just dropped it in and it blipped 4 then I did it again and it blipped 6 after that it wouldn’t work at all. functioning semi auto but the bullets are being struck on the primer, very shallow. (Photo). I thought it was the buffer weight so I went and bought an h2/spring combo buffer weight that is hollow with weights for dead blow effect. Tonight I was able to shoot again with the new buffer weight and still no luck. So I cleaned it well, i took apart the bcg and cleaned it. It was very dirty so I thought this was my issue then I tried it out, it shot one round, cycled the next and I stopped and cleared it, no primer strike, loaded to try again and had the bullet in the chamber not fire, and locked the bcg forward. Couldn’t get it back so I lifted it and reset the trigger again it didn’t fire and after a couple tries I was able to pull it back. The photo is the jammed bullet, the lightly tapped bullet and a regular one.
Everything is stock except the h2 weight/ spring and I know my bcg is m16 style.
If anyone has any insight I would really appreciate it.
Thank you
Upon further inspection I think the jammed bullet may have just been bad ammunition but I’m still cycling and not firing based on the shot before clearing and starting over

Hello guys I was going to purchase this optic but before I do has anyone bought from the seller woot on Amazon, they have a very good price for the Steiner t1xi. Woot the seller has a lot of feedback. Just wanted to see if someone out there has boughten one off Amazon thanks.

My first SBR build. 7.5" .300 BLK SBR.
**Relevant parts:**
- 7.5" .300 BLK PSA upper
- KAK Mini Milspec buffer tube kit with Micro M4 stock (Buffer Weight: H2 5.5oz)
-milspec charging handle
- Aero Precision BCG
The bcg has stuck out since the day I assembled it. I took it to the range for the first time last week. It fired once. After that it only misfeeds with a double-feed type malfunction.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue? I see that there were posts in the past here but no solution helps yet. Wondering if the issue could be with this compact buffer system?

Not sure how I feel about it.. kinda still prefer the PA slx 1x that was on there before..

Maybe i am crazy, but after going round and round on my next rifle, i am kinda landing on this option.
[BCM Upper:](https://bravocompanyusa.com/cosmetic-blem-bcm-standard-16-mid-length-complete-upper-receiver-group-w-raider-m13-handguard/)
[PSA Lower](https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-sabre-15-forged-lower-with-b5-bravo-stock-and-b5-grip-black.html)
Any issues with this combination?
All i know is that BCM is pretty good and reliable and the spec sheet on the PSA doesn't look too bad.
Other options i was looking at were maybe buying an AR10 or the jakl-15, but then i do like an AR-15 more and i just want something that will run reliably.
Anyways, would luv to hear your thoughts.
p.s. PSA is a mixed bag, i know, people hate them or think they're good enough.
Edit #1 wow lots of replies fast, thanks for the comments, it's much appreciated!!!
But i guess i also should've asked, what other lower options would you choose, either from psa or elsewhere?
Thanks again for the fun thread.

Hello everyone! Wanted to see if someone could give me some pointers on what i should install next on my AR pistol .
I bought this one already made at a local store on a sale they had a few years back when i wasn't as informed as i am now about parts and accessories (not as much knowledge on specific parts ..etc)
Would love some recommendations on what would be some things i could add to it to complete it! Thanks in advance!

Currently got an ARO and HM3X and wanted to upgrade the red dot and still use this magnifier. I've really been wanting the AEMS EVO but I keep seeing people post about very bad emitter reflection . Has this issue been fixed or are they still like that? Does the AEMS pro or even the AEMS core have this reflection issue?

First time building a rifle myself. I did everything by the book. It’s a 10.3 mk18 mod 0 ish, and after getting it together I lubed everything I was supposed to, and cycled some rounds and ejected them. (Haven’t fired it) and the bolt isn’t locking far enough to the rear. It’s resting on the casing.
