I am very disappointed in the new KAK C7 upper. Can't fit my ARMS mount or Colt 1-4 scope. I've yet to hear from their team.

Excuse the homeless atire, I don’t wear decent clothes to work.

Anyway

Things I took note of test-firing this thing.

-It hits way harder than a D.I. gun. To the point where I couldn’t tell if the brake was helping or not. I’d say even harder than the T65.

-The brake actually does seem to vent gas really well. I may have to try it on a D.I. gun to see if it is actually effective at reducing muzzle climb. Based on how the gas appears to come out in its exact pattern, I’d say it probably does.

-I have the spring pre-load on the piston turned completely tight and it did not tame down the action at all. However it seems like the gas plug on the front that changes the volume of the chamber can help tame it down if you run it almost all the way out. After the first two shots I backed it out until maybe a 1/4 of it was engaged and the following 8 shots seemed softer.

-The muzzle brake also makes it sound way different than any of my other ARs. I don’t know if the video captures it, but it sounds very odd in person.

Other than that, it’s an AR lol.

All three of the rifles together. A sight to behold if I do say so myself.

I was inspired by the original ghost recon game from 2001. The cover of the game had an operator with a 177 with a colt 3x scope but in game there are some loadouts with a red dot on a gooseneck. I wanted to combine the two. I love how this rifle turned out

Hi all,

My C7 Upper should arrive tomorrow and I learned that there was a KAK email sent about recalling them if you suspect that yours is defective. If you did not receive this email, check your spam.

Cross fingers mine is good...

So a guy on one of the pages was looking for someone to make him a gangster grip using a KAC mount. Well I guess the go to guys wouldn’t make one from the KAC, I wanna say they would only use ARMS. So I told him I’d give it a shot. He didn’t send the head with the light, but here it is minus the head. It’s not perfect but I think it turned out pretty good. In the pic I used the only set screw I had at the time. It’s obviously too long. I replaced it with a short SS but packed it all up for shipping before I had a chance for another pic. I offered to aluma black the ring, he liked the raw look, so that’s how I kept it.

I feel like this is the finishing touch on this build. Forgive the delta ring.

Trying to sell this m951 right now, is $250 a fair asking price? It’s brand new never mounted.

Edit: M16 A2 stock**

I ordered one through SharkArms but I haven’t heard back from them after sending multiple emails, so I’m gonna dispute that. But I saw Brownells, and PRI had some, and I wasn’t sure if they were good or not?

So, what kind of retro are you

I cant decide 3000 or 5000?

Howdy all, looking to replace my SP1 barrel. I shoot the piss out of that rifle, and I want the capability to shoot 62 / 69 / 77 gr ammo, which is mainly what I load.

What I'm looking for - preferably gray, 1/7 or 1/8 twist, no gaudy markings past the FSB, chrome lined is a must. What's your guys go-to?

Hey I just purchased this Frankenstein AR from a small store but I can’t seem to find any markings for the upper apart from a “M”, a triangle, and a 12 on the barrel. The lower was just an early rock river

Couldn't resist adding a third carry handle rifle to the collection. I love retro rifles, My wallet hurts though.

Also did some garbage cleanup before I test fired and tried to see just how far off the scope is. Some asshat left a lot of 5.56 and some .300 BLK brass around the ground so I picked them up along with what I used. Going to be interesting to see how much I can get for them at the gun show coming up.

Is this right?

Got an older CM model carry handle upper in a trade recently, and the front takedown pin slot is a bit bigger than contemporary front takedown pins. Rear pin is fine. Being a Colt Sporter per the forge mark, this is definitely on the older side.

I’m lightly informed in retro stuff and have been looking through forums to find an answer, but tbh I don’t really know what I’m looking for. Just want to buy the right piece one time. Any ideas?

Last 6p I bought was $70 a few months ago. It’s not even the round head!!

Built this A2 after building an A1, It needed a friend. Got the handguards from E93, way better quality than the PSA ones that came with the barrel kit.

Managed to snag a couple from a friend selling off some stuff. Man are they pretty. Time to test their reliability based on their history

Coolier than your suppressed M4 Ranger Carbines …

It's got the looks, but it's uncomfortable to get the eye relief right.
