Cool. Sounds like that and a recoil pad for the stock with a bit more give than cast aluminum are up next. Will be putting some rounds through it this weekend.
Thanks. Yes, I added the bolt catch, seemed silly to not after spending all that . I was planning on something like the Troy ambi mag release next. Is it a simple add in? Is it one drop in part or you have to rig it to work. Where can I buy it? Thanks again.
Thanks for all the help so far. My SCR is ready to roll. Can't wait to hit range.
Fightlite SCR -Sporter stock.
Fightlite 13" Mlok handguard
Strike Eagle 1x-8x
Bradley elite adjustable cheek rest.
Anyone install both a Bradley cheek rest and thicker buttpad on the SCR? . I mean a cast buttpad on the scr? Looks nice but ouch after a while. I need a replacement recoil pad, not a slip on. Curious if any of you have.
Thanks everyone. All advice and points taken. Appreciate it. I've learned a lot in a short time. Definitely getting torque wrench for sights but leaving handguard and barrel to a Smith with proper tools.
With all the wisdom here I've come to the following conclusion. I'm definitely buying a torque wrench for my scope mounts and small jobs, but due to a lack of space and additional equipment (vice, vice block, torque wrench for bolt lug) I think I will have a shop do the floating hand guard...
NYC apartment = less storage and workspace than optimal . I'm definitely buying the torque wrench for swapping sights etc but after watching a step by step floating hand guard install, it looks like I should really have a vice and receiver block as well, my dining table is my workshop
Good to be reminded. Thanks. I can only imagine the damage I could have done making that mistake. Any good standard options when it comes to a consumer torque wrench.tons on eBay but what the right one to buy?
Hello all, so I’m modding my Fightlite SCR with the Fightlite aluminum 13” hand guard and a Vortex strike eagle 1-8x scope. My main question is, in installing the new hand guard, i don’t have a torque wrench to meet the suggested pressure when tightening the components. I am being a bit cheap...
Hello All, thoughts on which option you think is better for getting around the city to the range on public transportation (NYC), I would need to carry my glock as well and it would need to be in a locked box the hardshell would cover both since it's basically a lockable TSA approved box with...
So My Fightlite SCR arrived at my FFL, picking up any day now, Got a super low price on the Vortex strike eagle 1-8x with offest mount for $279 and will mount that asap.I have two planned mods and since I'm not familiar with this platform I wonder which ones I can do, or just have the store do...
So I am leaning towards the Primary Arms series 1-6x gen 3 for $289, but I'm really curious is it worth it and justifiable for me to consider the 2x price at $599 for the highly rated Vortex Viper PST 1-6x? Not to be confused with the strike eagle.
Rifle is on it's way to my FFL, arriving Tues next week. Now thinking of scopes. Think FFP illuminated over red dot. More target and competition, but anyone have suggestion hp to $300 max? It post pics as soon as I get i .
I was hoping to add a longer handguard but I am unsure if that is allowed in NYC. Last time I shot my friends AR at the range that barrel got mighty hot after a hundred rounds.
Hi all, so I just ordered my Fighlite scr2 with the sport stock because of the giant ($200 avg) price difference. I hope I haven't made the wrong choice or missing any additional features over the monte carlo stock version
Hi Nortatoga, I must have missed your post on that awesome $599 deal. I saw the one you mentioned (thanks) but wasn’t sure on it’s condition. I did see a complete and new Fightlite SCR-2 (I guess newer trigger) for $800 which I was going to do but need to confirm whether barrel is threaded and...
I totally agree, reason I called them was because I thought they were discontinued. If they are planning on putting it back up they should say stock available soon or something of that sort. Otherwise anyone would think they discontinued. unfortunately, u NYC residents now only have one choice...
I actually spoke with them and it sounds like delays possibly due to rebranding from Ares to Figthlite. Sounds like they didnt want to build up back orders so they took rifles down temporarily. Based on my conversation with them didn't sound like anything was being discontinued, but that's...
Thanks for all advice, looks like I'll go for a whole rifle off of gunbroker. I take it that all of the SCR's are configured with the same featureless setup, few outside on NYC are sure if there is any difference between and SCR sold in CA vs an SCR sold in NYC?
So after some research as i was just about to buy the lower, it seems that if the firearm arrives with the classification of "other" instead of rifle, the NYPD won't accept it. FIGHTLITE whonare outrageously helpful are checking but as of right now I can only order an entire rifle and swap upper...
Any suggestions on a solid upper with 16" barrel (no threading, mulzzle break, bayonetblug or suppressor)? There are just too many companies . I dont want to put a crappy upper on i . Way more complicated than pistols. Gun stores in NY area all push Mini 14 (no hating on it, I just dont want...
Thanks. Inwas thinking that but steep $650 for lower direc + ffl dealer fee. My bigger concern is figuring out what is OK for an NYC (not NY State) compliant upper
Hello All, So I live in NYC and have always wanted to add an AR, but missed the opportunity before ban. I'm all set on an SCR, but as far as I can tell, the only place you can get a lower is from fightlite and its $625 by itself. Should I wait for stock to come in of full rifles or does...
Great Video, so how long does it take you to do a box of 50? also, since I've never reloaded, do I just pick up my used brass and reuse and where is the cleaning component. I wonder if I could just reload at my range, I'll have to ask. Now I'm getting the bug to do this. Does it end up being...
Does anyone sell a good Dummy starter kit (Reloading for idiots), I could see sitting there doing my first reload and realize I'm missing something I need.
