millertime24 8 #1 February 21, 2011 So I'm still waiting for my DPMS 3G1 upper, but I saw this upper on KSL for a steal and bought/mounted it. Here's some fun facts on the features of this rifle... -CMMG lower -JARD Single Stage 2' trigger -Houge Pistol Grip -CMMG 6 Position adjustable stock -ATI upper -DPMS Fluted 16" barrel -DPMS Flip-Up rear sight -DPMS National Match Bolt Carrier assembly -EMA Tactical Magazine Well Grip This was a really fun gun to build, but when my DPMS 3G1 upper comes in I think Ill have an "event" in my pants. Anywho, AR fans ENJOY!!! People who think these guns are evil and should be not owned by noone.... Go fuck yourself.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 February 21, 2011 Nice, but that box of ammo will last about 2 minutes at the range.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millertime24 8 #3 February 21, 2011 I know it's hard to see, but that is a box of .22LR. Wont work in this gun. Glad you like it. Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest #5 February 21, 2011 ...and because you own such an evil thing, I'll bet you can hardly resist the urge to go shoot up a schoolyard full of kids, right? We all know that firearms take over the minds of their owners and compel them to do such things. mh . ps - Nice boomstick."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

I "heard" and now believe once you have ONE of these things in your gun locker, they tend to multiply. I dont know about that, but I'm already looking at another lower... And for the record, while I don't like kids, I would NEVER send them to school with a toy such as this. Can't handle the liability...ETA- Didn't read your post fully. No I have no desire at all to shoot any person with this gun... Just targets.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #12 February 21, 2011 It's evil. It does not matter that it's a 22. The mere fact that it is black and looks like a killer makes you an automatic psycho child wannabee mass murderer. Won't anyone think of the children? Be afraid, be very afraid of the evil black rifle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysf8x477c30 Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anywho, AR fans ENJOY!!! People who think these guns are evil and should be not owned by noone.... Go fuck yourself. The direct-impingement gas system is strictly third-world (think "Hakim"). Add to that the use of a round that is deemed inadequate for deer-size animals by any game warden with the most basic skill set and you have a fundamentally shitty design. As an ejection-seat rifle to be used by a Lieutenant for basic survival purposes in the period of time it takes to link up with friendly forces, the AR-15 was mediocre to okay. As a primary combat firearm it is a truly dreadful choice. As a target rifle, it may have a lot going for it. I, however, have no use for the damned thing.

JohnRich 4 #16 February 21, 2011 QuoteI've been shooting PMC 55Grs. FMJ-BT in my M-15. Any opinions? 55-grainers are only good out to about 300 yards. At the shooting matches I attend, they're not even allowed past 300 yards because they are deemed "unsafe" to the target pullers down in the pits. Too much of a chance to blow off target, hit the wood frame, and send splinters flying. If you're only shooting under 300-yards, they're good. But then if you go to heavier bullets, you have to make sure you have a barrel twist rate that is fast enough to stabilize them, usually a 1 in 7.

How does it shoot? Couldn't tell you. I didn't say I didn't know what they were. I was simply commenting on the propensity of people to stick together a bunch of different parts from a bunch of different manufacturers. Once you've done that, the question becomes: will it function correctly, and will it shoot accurately. I've seen a lot of people clunk together different stuff like this, and then it never works reliably, or shoots like shit. So, good luck with it, and I hope it works out for you.
