    Need Help Deciding On AR Internal Coating

    Hey guys, I recently got my service weapon the Cerakote treatment; basic camo pattern on the externals and Cerakote Elite on the inside of the upper receiver and the BCG. I’m having some issues and was hoping to get some information on here (my armorers don’t seem to know). The inside of...

    Completed SCAR 17 Project + PMAG Lower Review

    I recently picked up an HDD SCAR 10 lower. I am stationed in a restricted state and was able to get home to my state of residence for a few days to pick it up. I’m just writing a quick review because I could not find one for the SCAR 10 on here. I do not want this thread to become a contest...

    On Market for New AR-type Rifle; Help!

    Have used the mk17 as well. I am of the opinion that the Heavy is the best .308 battle rifle currently fielded. Where I am having problems is determining the best 5.56 for the money and purpose... Thoroughly looking into all of the suggestions here. Thanks everyone! any more help appreciated

    On Market for New AR-type Rifle; Help!

    I actually have been toying around with the idea of picking up a Ruger Precision Rifle in .308. The only bolt gun I have used in the last 2 years is an XM2010 in .300WM.

    On Market for New AR-type Rifle; Help!

    :confused: Hey all, I am on the market for a new rifle. I have a nice, minimalist AK with modern furniture, a few solid ARs (all DI), an SKS, and recently picked up a SCAR 17, as well as a Tavor on an impulse buy, and regret neither. I love the SCAR, and put a lot of money into it (extra...

    SCAR 17 and best ACOG fit

    Hey all, I am looking for an optic to put on my SCAR. I am not looking at the Elcan line, for several reasons. I have experience with the mk17 platform with DR 1.5-6x Elcans (we also mounted RMRs on top) and don't have the coin for an Elcan, plus I am not a big fan of them for several...

    SCAR 17S setup (optic?)

    I recently continued my love of the SCAR and after using one extensively in my profession, have added one to my private collection. I don't usually do this, but I am in need of some advice for an optic. SI SCAR MK10s I have used and come across have all been fitted with a Elcan Specter DR...

    TAVOR vs. SCAR: new rifle!

    I'd also like to add that I am not a huge fan of DI ARs because of many problems I've heard of, witnessed, and experienced during actual military use. I have looked into REPR and SR25 types but I haven't really strayed from the TAR vs. SCAR dilemma.

    TAVOR vs. SCAR: new rifle!

    Hey all, After several hours perusing the Internet about the two different weapon systems mentioned in the title, I've turned to THR for some first-hand advice. I am in the market for a new rifle. Obviously, I am willing to deal with a big ticket price as well. I used to be dead set on...

    ProMag and AR problems?

    bottom right is exactly what I have.. maybe they or I explained it incorrectly. So an M4 upper would do the trick?

    ProMag and AR problems?

    figured out the problem. after taking the gun to a gunsmith he pointed out that the feed ramps of my upper are not M4-style; somebody slapped an M4 barrel on this Bushy and apparently the feed ramps won't feed non-military ammo (they are M16-style) since the neck of the shell on civvie ammo...

    ProMag and AR problems?

    So promag is junk as I can see... Another issue; when I have a full mag or 3/4 full mag in my metal mag, I am getting the same type of problem yet not so severe... I think it may have been because I rode the bolt forward.

    ProMag and AR problems?

    folks on PAFOA.org advised me to keep bolt open then release with magazine in. the first round got slammed into the front of the receiver and actually SENT THE BULLET down into the propellant area of the cartridge... ***

    ProMag and AR problems?

    Wasn't aware of promags ****ty rep. This is my first AR and I've been an AK guy and their mags worked great for AKs... Ill load em up and let em sit and see what happens
