Pics Official AR15 Picture Thread

[kzspec]

Picked up a B5 glow in the dark stock and grip at a gun show last weekend

Notice the majority of folks choose maglocked rifles.

Any reason why everyone chooses this route? I hate the pistol grips that featureless imposes(don't really care at all about having to use a brake or fully extended stock).

Messing with the actual receiver function operation particularly on an ar15 with all the eventual feedramp height extractor/ FTF issues it seems like it could ultimately introduce seems extra spicy to me though. Am I missing out?

The maglocked magazine allows for maglock without altering the receiver. Maglock also makes it look cooler. Im also not a proponent of the JT or Kingpin, so why i went with the maglock magazine. In event of AWB strike down or moving to other states, easier to remove magazine andbe a normal rifle

Isn't that inconvenient when you're shooting a lot though?

T65 upper on a colt carbine mag lock lower.

Is the SCR considered an AR?

 

[1nvictus]

Colt LE6920 upper, Griffin MK2 Ambi lower, VLTOR CASV-EL-2 handguard, Schmid Flat Face single stage trigger, Holosun 403R, Scalarworks Peak rear sight, Streamlight HL-X Pro.

The lower was bought in I think November of 2005; it is a Stag Arms with a 4-digit serial number. The trigger is either a "national match" or Geissele, I forgot whether I upgraded it. The furniture was made by Ironwood Designs (may he rest in piece). The upper is from White Oaks Armaments, with a stainless bull barrel. The twist of the barrel is selected for 75gr ammo, as this is intended as more of a varmint than a CQB rifle. Scope is a Vortex. Note that there is no maglock and there are features, because it has a bullet button (and is registered as such).

Featureless. I've recently attached a new dot and magnifier but haven't taken photos with those on.

Nice looking rigs in this thread!!

I was trying to decide what I’d post. I went with one of my more unusual ones.

This is a Bentwood Gunsmithing OIP (Ounces is Pounds). Arguably, this is one of the builds that got the whole “lightweight AR” fad off the ground back in about 2015.

- Ti takedown/pivot/muzzle brake/gas block
- Special Edition Faxon lightweight barrel (note the dimples to reduce weight)
- CF hand guard (this obviously pre-dates M-Lok haha!!)
- 4lbs 6oz with an Aimpoint and 10-rd mag
- Single-point sling mount (back in the “single-point slings are cool” era, haha!!)
- They allegedly only made 100 of these

Shoots like a dream. Perfectly balanced. Feels like zero recoil when shooting (not that AR’s recoil much, haha!!)

I have the custom light-mount for it too (not shown in the pics). It mounts on the Aimpoint mount.

I found more pics of the OIP. This thread made me go pull it out of the archives. It’s so light it feels fake, haha!!
