    Nice! I picked one up a while back, I believe it was a strike industries? Anodized aluminum selectors in red, I don't think it does the 45° positioning tho... I didn't notice. $24 from optics planet. Being a lefty, It's nice having the short lever on the left side and out of the way of your...

    Absolutely brother! That's the fun in it... Lol. Lube everything-all inside upper receiver, take down/pivot pins, even a light coat on the buffer and buffer spring. Do not lube the firing pin itself tho-just clean and dry it. Lubing it can cause it to get gunked up and potential issues. I use a...

    Sexy! First builds are always fun ain't they? Lol. A little tip, don't get discouraged if it doesn't cycle rounds properly first time out. There's a break in period, and after about 200 rounds and 100 or so dry cycles, I stripped it down, degreased, and re lubed everything, and not a single...

    Awesome - thanks for the info, much appreciated! Yeah, I 've only tried the Federal 55grain 5.56 FMJ so far... it was the cheapest they had at my guy, so bought 6- 100 rd boxes, $70/box. No complaints really - low recoil, no misfires... I dig em.

    Holy shit, that's almost half of what it is here - was that online ordered and shipped to your FFL? I can't find ammo online that will ship to NYS - FFL or not.

    Hell yeah brother! That's a hell of group for first run! Fuck those haters on reddit - most likely don't own an AR, let alone shoot one... They repeat what they watch on YouTube... A CNC machined lower is a lower... Only difference really is the logo stamped in it. I built my 1st about 2 months...

    Hilarity From Palmetto State Armory

    I have 2 shops within 5 miles of me, Eastern LI, 1 shop will not sell me an Aderson stripped lower, because I don't have my semi auto permit - less than 5 miles away, shop number 2 has no problem selling me one... Shop 1 will not sell anything relating to semi auto unless you have a permit. Shop...

    They're surprisingly easy to build, and fun as hell! Just need some patience, and plan on dropping the tiny detents and springs a few times... Lol. Armorers wrench, upper/lower receiver vice blocks, roll pin punch set 1/16" and up, and you're good to go! Be warned tho, the addiction is worse...

    NY - DUMBEST GUN LAW YET - New York's proposal for A 4271 "Child operated firearms"

    I believe now you can have the round red plastic revolver style caps, but only allowed 4 of the 6 to have loads in them.

    Yeah, I'm sticking with the 10rd fixed on this one. Might go a different route on my next build, not sure yet... And gotta let the wife cool down a bit about the money I'm spending before I start another haha!

    Yeah, exactly. I like the look, but not enough to possibly drawing attention to myself for no reason - even if I am compliant - just don't need it!

    Fixed 10rd is what I'm running. I originally went with the compmag fixed 10rd,looks like a 30rd,but heard that they're not that great, so ordered a few pmag 10rd mags, and an ARMaglock for the locking mech.

    Haha... Yeah, that's what I've been seeing, but then someone will comment that it's only 2 features, or another will say one, etc... I'm going 10rd fixed mag for sure, and just couldn't get a solid answer-well everything I've come across is from a year or more ago... So, thank you for the...

    Whats up all, sorry to ask here - but I'm also doing my first build , and I've searched the web high and low, and can't seem to get a straight forward answer, so hopefully someone can point me in the right direction: My question is simple I think - but everything I find seems to be surrounded...
