    Ukraines New AR-47

    I was wondering just when a previous soviet-era country would adopt the platform as it makes a lot of sense. One of the key advantages of the Ukrainian military going this route as mentioned in the article below is the fact they can utilize their large stockpiles of 7.62x39 ammo and as they...

    AR15 Short Stroking Conundrum

    Hello, new to the forum, and not new to guns. I'm having a problem with the AR15 I recently built (my first). I have been having short stroking problems since the start; 20% of my spent casings are ejecting, and it never strips next round from mag. Last weekend, I had a friend help me diagnose...

    How do you feel about Dicks not selling “assault” rifles?

    With recent events, Dick’s (and many other sporting-goods companies) are no longer selling “assault” rifles. First off, it bothers me that all of these people (mostly libs) are referring to AR15s as “assault rifles” or “assault weapons”. An assault weapon is defined as a rifle with select-fire...

    Steel Colt AR15 Magazines?

    I went to a local store today and seen a steel 30 round AR15 mag that said it was a Colt. Did Colt make a 30 round steel magazine? If so were they reliable? If they were Im going back to get them. Thank

    Best recoil reducing compensator for the money?

    I found one called the VooDoo Jet compensator and it looks like it works in the video. Its around $80 and I'm cheap. lol Are there compensators out there cheaper that work as good as that one? I'm upgrading my AR slowly and right now I'm looking to lighten the recoil.

    Ar 15 painting

    I built my first AR 15 and it works great! I didn't like its color scheme so I painted it flat black with Rustoleum heat resistant paint. Baked it in my oven for 3 hours at 350 degrees. I did sand it, cleaned it and primed it before painting. Now the paint isn't flaking off except when ever i...

    Please talk me into, or out of, a 9" 300 Blackout...

    A couple weeks ago, I decided to start planning for my next AR build, which I decided would be an 18" DMR type rifle. While researching that build, I stumbled across some info on 300 Blackout, and started daydreaming about having an SBR. Long story short, I started thinking a 9" 300 Blackout...

    Plinking Ammo: Pulled bullets vs. Inexpensive NEW bullets?

    I've been buying "premium" or at least premium priced bullets from Hornady, Sierra, and Nosler exclusively but it has dawned on me recently that I might be throwing cash away and if the goal is to shoot so I can improve my skills, I might be able to shoot more if I lower the cost of the rounds...

    Caved and Bought First Lower

    I'd been wanting an AR for a while but kept putting it off. Figured I'd wait until next summer when I graduate. I wanted a complete BCM build. Well, with the pending election and being blessed with work this summer, I decided I'd at least buy a stripped lower and pick up the parts over time, no...
