Newbie questions on 1st AR build...
Is the muzzle device pinned? Either way a good gunsmith should be able to do it. Just may cost a little more. I used heritage guild in rahway and work was good. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 4

Why are there commercial buffer tubes?
Sounds logical, but then why are they the same retail price? Are manufacturer's just marking the commercial up more? And why would any consumer want to purchase a commercial knowing that it is a lower grade product?
-
Fixed front sight thoughts
For that I would just buy a new barrel/comp and turn my gun into a mid length system.

Why are there commercial buffer tubes?
I've always wondered this but never found out why. Why are there commercial AND mil spec buffer tube sizes. Wouldn't it be easier for everyone if it was only mil spec? Cost doesn't seem to be the issue since they are both about the same price. Does not compute.

This article has been posted before and I just want to add it for some perspective. http://www.slip2000.com/blog/s-w-a-t-magazine-filthy-14/ Now I'm not advising you to try this particular cleaning regiment, but I don't strip and clean my car's after every session. I probably go 700-1000 rounds before I strip it. I've never had one failure in either of my guns. You should however be looking for undue wear and tear on bcg and other major parts. And always always keep it lubed.

I have only MidwestPX Pmags at the moment. Personally I like the 15/30's over the others because I like the more area to grab sticking out of my pouches or mag well. Makes reloading easier. 15/20s are great for bench shooting. I would like to get a couple metal mags eventually but the Pmags are really reliable. Magazines have to be PERMANENTLY altered as to hold no more than 15 rounds. The definition of permanent is slightly vague. Generally it is considered permanent if the only way to remove the mag limiter would be to destroy the magazine in the process. As far as ammo, I guess it depends what you are looking to get out of it. I generally use PMC .223 cause its cheap and goes boom every time but I've had good experiences with federal xm193, augila .223 and federal .223. I'm not a precision shooter so minute-of-man is good enough for me. You'll eventually hear the steel vs brass case debate. Some people swear by steel but in my experience, I've seen far more stoppages with steel than brass. Basically what I'm saying is, unless your shooting bullseye, buy the cheapest ammo that you know will work EVERY time you pull the trigger. As far as local vs online, I'm with Vlad. If you see Dicks or your LGS with the one you like on sale at $6-$7 a box I'd be all over it. Otherwise online is where your going to be finding the better deals.

Article: Rise of the Warrior Cop
Staten Island Highway patrol are notorious for giving EVERYONE tickets, officer or not. Commonly referred to as the Gestapo or Nazi's by my cop friends lol. I don't know about being afraid of police, that might be a bit strong. They absolutely need to be held accountable to a high standard. I've had (more than) my fair share of talks with local fuzz, mostly in NYC where they are much more prevalent. I can only think of one occasion where the cop was truly just being a turd. Long story short, he pulled me over, after cutting me off, to ticket my brother in the passenger seat for not wearing a seat belt. My brother called him a dick out loud and the cop heard him. Any other situation I've had was my own doing. Most have been friendly and even helpful. One NJST checked out to make sure I was ok as I had my hazards on the side of 287 (I was falling asleep driving after doing an overnight at my job. Pulled over for a nap) He asked if I was ok, said I did the right thing and told me to have a nice nap. As for the days of being Andy and Barney, I'm not sure where you've heard that. All the stories I've heard in the old days, if you were jammed up by the po-po they gave you a little extra just so you'd remember not to do it again. Today I can imagine how many cops have to look over their shoulder just making a legit arrest with 5 or 6 cell phones in his face. I wish all the towns in the country were like Mayberry, but thats not the case.

How did this Societal/Cultural change happen?
That's all well and good but its not worth it for me. Logic is obviously not this "mans" strong suit. It isn't my responsibility to teach someone what his elders screwed up on. See what I mean? You know the "whites" will be a minority soon right?

How did this Societal/Cultural change happen?
why is this drivel being entertained? Let this dope do the whole white is right thing. Its really not worth the energy to speak rationally to someone that's a self proclaimed racist lol.

uppers; buy or build?
Building an upper does not really seem very hard, given the right tools. I don't have the right tools however. Looking into individual parts, I don't think there is much cost/benefits savings vs buying from a vendor like BCM. I go with the complete uppers.

I honestly did like them, the non railed part of the hand guards is fairly slender and easy to hold. You can unscrew and rearrange the rails, add full length, or add bumpers.

Anyway point of the thread has been answered.- Build at last!
I don't care for you to ask questions here but pricing or transactions should be done via pm.- I was told no .308 or 30 06 at RTSP
Good for you DUDE. I know what BZO is and what it was designed for which was 5.56 on a man sized target. You want to be " close enough" with a 30 cal precision round, that's your business.- Build at last!
I would caution you about eBay. LOTS of fakes floating around. Definitely check feedback before buying.- Build at last!
BTW that uppers is gtg bud. You didn't limit yourself too bad, standard 16" GI profile, still got your choice of comp, your choice of handgaurds. - Build at last!
