Showing off my ARs

I've posted my ARs on here individually before but last night I took a photo of them together. They look so good together that I thought I'd post a photo of them together on here. One is a S&W M&P 15 MOE and the other a Ruger SR556C. On the M&P is an Aimpoint PRO and the SR556C has an EO...

Re: New SR556 Carbine

UPDATE: Using the tips on how to lubricate the rifle, I went to the range last night and shot xm193, Wolf, and UMC flawlessly on piston setting 2. Needless to say, I love this rifle now. Cleanup was a breeze as always. The only think I am looking out for now is the carrier tilt on the buffer tube. e...

Re: New SR556 Carbine

Also, the not going into full battery was operator error. I rode the bolt forward which the SR556 does not like. So it goes into battery now when I just let go of the charging handle when loading a magazine in.

Re: New SR556 Carbine

38superfan, what piston setting did you have it on when you've shot this types of ammo? The UMC now works fine on piston 2 but will not lock the bolt carrier back once the magazine is depleted. On piston setting 3, it will fire UMC, Wolf, and Tula just fine. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://va...

Re: New SR556 Carbine

I thought Ruger recommended running it open for a while until it broke in, then it should be dialed back. How do you like the balance on it? [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://vagunforum.net/images/mobile.png I hope thats the case. otherwise, it may just be the underpowered ammo. The weight fee...

New SR556 Carbine

Just got a Ruger SR556 Carbine this weekend and also went to the range. Had some trouble with the piston setting on 2 using 55 grain UMC ammo. So I set the piston setting to 3 and it worked fine after that. Setting 2 included failure to extract and not going fully into battery. I am concerned becaus...

Re: New N-PAP AK

No canted sight issues. In fact, I already mechanically sighted it in as the front sight post was adjusted to the right. Fortunately I bought a AK/SKS sight tool. The AFG feels awesome on it. It honestly feels natural and very ergonomic. The charging is still a little rough but I've read that it get...

New N-PAP AK

Hey guys, here is my new N-PAP AK47 rifle. It actually came with polycarbonate handguard but I installed a railed handguard. The original handguard was extremely difficult to remove. I also attached a Magpul AFG and Troy railguards. Other than those mods, I will keep it as it is.

Re: My new M&P15

Thanks! It was supposed to have a BAD lever but for some reason the M&P 15 lower receivers have some sort of groove that prevent proper function of a BAD lever.

My new M&P15

I just got it last week and already put over 300 rounds through it. Not one single problem. Ammo ranging from Tulammo (dirty) to PMC. Optic is an Aimpoint PRO. I love it.
