Howdy all..

AR-Beginner. Budget-ish build/set-up

Do your thing fellas.

Painted mags are just experimenting with colors of random rattle can in my garage.

Burris PEPR 30mm mount - Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8x24 - PSA Sabre bronze 11.7" complete upper - adjustable gas block - coupled 40rnd pmags - stock trigger (for now)

Ideas?

Im all ears.

Wow, an actual retard.

Go back to r*ddit, dork

>>64021617 (OP)
>hey guise look at my kewl new rifle
>no marks on brass deflector
I think you should do more shooting and less attention whoring.

Lmao.. thanks yep. Was expecting that

>>64021617 (OP)
Post hands lol. Seriously though, I don't think an LPVO fits an 11.5. RDO, RDO + magnifier, or even just a prism would make more sense IMO. Are you ever actually going to use the reticle? Should have kept the A2 birdcage. And yeah the 40 rd mags are for kids. Missing a flashlight and a sling. Ugly color matchup, needs paint.
2.5/10

Might be a newfag but im not reddit gay.

Clearly stated: new... rifle. Virgin. Took a crack at not a dull all-black fag set up.

*shrugs.

Not looking for a hand job.

Just what i might tweak or unfuck, etc.. put your dicks back in your sisters.

I digress.

It's what comes with it by the looks of things.

Ar pistol grips with a beaver tail do not allow for a proper grip. Vortex is a scope rental company because you will need the warranty. Strike eagles have improved lately but still a pretty poor choice compared to what else is out there. The upper is low quality and you will likely see qc issues within the 1st 2000 rounds. I wonder how mangled the throat of the barrel is due to the quality workmanship of the monkeys at psa. Adjustable gas blocks are retarded on ar-15s and this will also cause issues. Hopefully it’s a riflespeed adjustable block. It will be interesting to see what fails first. Stock trigger will do you fine given your other poor choices, you will likely not see the benefits of an upgraded one. The burris mount is acceptable. You should have asked for help first. I hope this doesnt shit the bed on you within 500 rounds. The rail isnt great but will be fine if not adding a lam for shooting under nods.

>>64021702
Nigger you are reddit gay do NOT post in /arg/. Also stop namefagging

>>64021716
>Strike eagles have improved lately but still a pretty poor choice compared to what else is out there.
What is a better option at a similar price point?

>>64021696
Im not stuck on the bronze personally, what would the A2 have over this comp?

LPVO I got for a song: crisp and it illuminates slapped it on for shits n gigs is all mostly.. not zero'd never shot.

I have a magpul sling dual/single style, not pictured. Havent decided on brace/folding set up yet. Babyfag steps. Yup. That guy.

Not many ppl i know are gun enthusiasts, which.. is why my dumbass is on here.

Still, all ears.

Slow responses because im at work trying to not get wrote up. Meh.

>>64021716(me)
Also, no sling and light is an instant 0/10
>>64021721
I assume no coti? What range are you shooting out to? What ammo? 55gr?

The lower's fine, probably
Painted mags are fine, as long as they're the color scheme of your surroundings
I've seen US security teams use 40 rounders, but I'd stick to the 30s for mag compatibility
>That upper
You wasted your money
"Sabre" and other titles PSA give their products are still from PSA
Sell the upper to some other poor fool and lurk /arg/
Here's their pastebin: https://rentry.org/sa6c4m
>That optic
on an 11.5"? Why? Just use a 1st gen Romeo 5 and upgrade to a T2 when your budget permits
Above all else; GET OUT TO THE RANGE WITH IT

>>64021705
No reddit here bub.

OP is a fag.

Lurk moar fag

>>64021741
Yet, here we are.

>>64021729
Sorry, for clarity >>64021721(me) is not OP, nor do I know what coti means. Most of my ammo is 77 gr, but I keep a shit ton of 55 gr on hand for funsies. I ask because I have a strike eagle, it's fine, but a 1:1 sell and replace doesn't bother me. Range I go to tops out at 100 yards, so thats about it for me.

the last point is a good thing though because now you can sell everything except the lower and start over

>>64021733
Noted. Much obligated.

>>64021749
Clip on thermal imager. If you dont shoot further then a lpvo is retarded. Id rather see you with a dot/magnifier or a fixed power 3-5x prism with a top dot added later. Dot mag would only suck for you in a super wet area due to multiple lenses to keep free of droplets

>>64021754
What if it isnt bait?
What if OP is actually just brown

>>64021749
Also like i said new strike eagles (2025 mfg) are ok if you baby it. Older strike eagles are unredeemable dogshit

>>64021617 (OP)
Change that gay handguard for something actually cool

>>64021758
I did dot mag once upon a time, but my eyes got worse and I ended up not liking dots as much. I do have a prisim on one of my guns, which is pretty nice, but I really like the both eyes open 1x option.

I've considered a coti, didn't know the abbreviation. Why is an lpvo retarded? Is it the weight gain for functionality?

>>64021777
You can both eyes open shoot pa prisms and the holosun 403r or equivalent mounted on top. Lpvos lack durability and make many compromises. If this is a rifle you shoot less than 5 times a year im sure you will be fine. 1-8 is a compromised mag range in a 30mm tube. Its been a while since ive looked through one but if the 1x looks good the 8x is like looking through a straw. There is probably some fisheye, vignetting, and parallax issues.

>>64021777
>I do have a prisim on one of my guns, which is pretty nice, but I really like the both eyes open 1x option.
how does the acog keep winning, bros? isn't it tired?

No names. No polite. Everyone is nigger fag. Dont be poor. Know opinions before asking. Show up dont lurk. Never not a gay. Im not misspelling words and can swim. Uh not sure the bait thing yet, still too new for that, sorry gay nigger for that, my bad. Dont be new guy. Im sure someone with the smell of their own balls on their fingers from an hour ago will remind me soon.

Oh and have better vision so i dont need to use magnifying optics.

Got it.

Brutal, yet hilarious. Im trackin so far, i think.

I have an R.P.R. in 6.5 (gayest of gay im sure)

I dont get out and shoot as much as id like to, city life reasons.

I work a lot and sleep the rest of the time.

This is merely a litmus test to see what honest opinions feel like. Lurkin or otherwise.

Cant know if i dont ask. Youtube is only good for ...non-experts.

Not nigger, or brown but i tan well (part native).

June 4th: 80+deg no fkin wind, just rained that day. Target was a white mirage blur bastard. Shooter on range explained how to center the blur with my mrads.. kinda just tried good on what felt like luck.. *ding*

He said do that again

So i did. 6 more times. Between his 2 red X group. Unsure of what he was cuddling with on his bench, didnt ask. Nice fel... i mean nigger, nice nigger that guy.

>>64021804
The 1x isnt exact but damn close. I dont have the best vision ever.. distance is your friend, well aware. I need a not 15.4lb rifle to get to said distance/out of city first - "Ar pistol" to do so, is where i was headed with this highly educational interaction.

>>64021758
Feel free to shit me out a spare thermal/acog when you get a chance.

I do like the 1x thermal holosun tho.. again, not the greatest eyesight here.

Looks decent desu. Not sure why /k/ is seething.

>>64021773
Meh.. trying to slap together a non cookie cutter red dot "pistol" to b.o. with is all.. cant hit what i cant see.

>>64021865
>part native
>not brown
Uh huh

>>64021879
Holosuns dots are fine but their thermal is ass. Most interesting thermal rn is the oneleaf mars. For acogs i lke the ta11 and ta31. Primary arms 3 and 5x are good for the price

Its fine. I had two different PSA premium uppers that ran fine for several thousand rounds before I sold them. Don't start changing shit you will be just pissing away money. Put a Magpul brace on it. After that, don't buy anymore cheap shit. Lurk r/gundeals/new. Learn how to use ammoseek, and https://gun.deals/ (this is another gundeals entirely). Lurk k/arg. Don't pay full price for anything. When you find someone to buy your pistol sell it and assemble a 14.5-inch rifle. Buy the upper and lower separately. Buying a complete rifle, or a complete lower is for chumps.

>>64021729
Suggestions on light?

Full house, that felt good.>>64021905

>>64021936
Thank you for your time. Ammoseek is on my radar. Ideally id have a mk14 sbr clone. Who wouldnt want one? Just wanted a solid, not-so-bland 1x truck gun to beat on, nothing is in stone. My castle nut is still only hand tight, as it was just slapped together in my spare time with parts and pcs from here and there.

A bit of a Frankenstein "pistol"..

I like the idea of being able to shoulder it and walk sideways thru doorways without being low-ready and stay CQ af.

Id like a dazzler/light combo if thats even a thing? Idk like i Said, still new to the AR world for the most part. I was fully expecting this date-rape of an interaction desu. Ive been laughing like an asshole at work the whole time. Good stuff.

I appreciate the input and circle-jerk exp that is ..4chan

>>64021729
Freshy fresh slapped together "build" is a strong word. 5.56 green tips only for me please. Sling not pictured.

Idk what range but the internets says thst a green-tip out of a 11.7 is still scootin around 2800? Idk, maybe out to 200 "effective" hence the silly notion of an LPVO i had laying around because i cant feckin see 200y..

0-200yd ideally. I didn't want to huck $500-800 out the window at a fixed 4x sexy acog.

Just trying to self teach and it kinda feels like trying to catch BB's in the dark. Which.. is why i should have come here first so as not to show up with said abortion of pistol.

Post my hands?

Sounds gay.

>>64021755
Shit and fall back in it, got it.

Im just hear for a good haze'n and learn a knowledge or two.

Youre brown!

>>64022066
Probably the gayest thing ive had to is prove to some faggot online that im not a nigger, do you poke random people with reverse psychology to get them to collect dudes for your spank bank? Fair i guess?


Thank you, i shall go kill myself now, accordingly. Been swell learned a little.

Nigger.

>>64022105
Nobody is being funny or joking. Make a reddit and fuck off.

>ima go to le epic meme website and post my gun!
>ok i get it guys i say nigger like you!

>>64022105
buy an acog, paint your gun, and lurk more

>>64021617 (OP)
49 round pmags are fucking gay

>>64022147
This. Acog is all you need for 5.56.

>>64021964
A 5.56 CQB firearm is a bad choice. You fire that one time in an enclosed space and you will instantly understand why. You want a Stribog PDW or a pistol for that. It will still suck but much, much less. Buy a Surefire light or its cheaper Stream light equivalent. Remember: NO MORE CHEAP SHIT.

>>64021617 (OP)
this has to be bait

Ask here instead reddit nu-fren, also get a light with a momentary switch. I don't care which one, but I am bias towards Arisaka.
>>64018158

>>64021617 (OP)
the way to go with high capacity mags is quattro 15. no contender.

>>64023118
>no contender

And it’s not even close. There is no better, more mass/volume efficient way of carrying and feeding ammo.

53 is a weird capacity, Prime number (gross). They Should’ve gone surefire-style and used nested springs. That way the capacity could be >60 without increasing length or (empty) mag weight. But given neither the desert tech nor schmeissers use nested springs, I suspect surefire has a patent on them.

>>64022178
What’s with the blue “3” on the stock?

Rack number. Larp fun stuff.
