Essential Spare Parts Question

SO, I was cleaning out my garage and I realized that I had amassed a ton of mainly AR parts. I am not sure who bought this stuff or why, but, never the less; here is this bin full of good ideas and “must have’s” sits; besides being a great reflective exercise in priorities my question is, “What spare parts are essential?” I am thinking in terms of the AR platform, my bolt gun is an AI, so if that breaks-down I will need to take a second mortgage to fix it.

Another LPVO thread

Yes, another LPVO thread. It's just that I'm kind of overwhelmed with the possible choices.

Intended use - recently purchased a Noveske Afghan upper with a 14.5" stainless upper. I already have a couple of SBR's with red dots and a 18" CLE upper with a 24x scope that's dedicated to long range shooting. This rifle would be my do it all option. So offhand shooting at 15-50 yards, but also would take it out to 4-500 yards. I have access to a 600 yard range, and will probably end up doing about 75% of my shooting with this rifle at 200+ yards and beyond.

I have an absolute max budget of $1,500 and if I can keep it under $1,000 that would be great. Obviously, the scope needs to be reasonably rugged, and have really solid glass. Weight is a concern, so if I can keep it light that would be a plus. And it has to have a reticle that works for both in close shooting and long distance shooting. Finally, I can live with 1-6x but 1-8x would be better. Don't really want to go up to 1-10x, since I don't think I really need it and understand those scopes can be problematic.

The problem is that there are a ton of choices that look like they would work. Primary Arms has a 1-8x for $1,500 that is really interesting and is probably my current top choice. It's relatively light and has a great reticle. Of course the Vortex Razor 1-6x is a solid option. Great glass, great warranty but getting another 2x would be nice. I have a Trijicon Credo in higher magnification, that I like, so their 1-8x is interesting to me. Steiner has a 1-6x option that looks it would work. Eotech has something in my price range, and I'm a big fan of their holographic sight, but don't know anything about their other scopes. And finally, there's the Nightforce NXS, but I think even on sale that's going to end up over my max budget and the ATACR is way over my budget.

So I guess I'm just interested in other shooters' thoughts and experiences with the above scopes, or something I maybe have left out.

Why do I keep getting Blocked? I

The last several times I've tried to get on this forum I get a page that says the security ap has blocked me for being suspicious. I have to E mail Lowlight and ask WTF and in a day or two, I can get back on. What is going on? It happens when I get an e-mail saying a post I've been following has a new post. I click on the e-mail and get blocked. It also happens when I come straight to the site, I get the U B Blocked page. Honest, I've been a good boy. No naughty pictures or posts.

Trump attends the National Association of Black Journalists and takes no sh*t.

Man, this guy is amazing, completely fearless. He gets attacked by a 'nasty' lady journalist over the fact people say Cumala Harris is a DEI hire and fires back. His answer was great. Even the audience cheered.

I mean, the guy took an assassin's bullet to the side of the head. You think he's afraid anything?

The importance of local level activism: Federal judge STRIKES DOWN New Jersey AR-15 ban in verdict to FPC lawsuit. AR-15s legal in NJ again.

Earlier in the year, the Firearms Policy Coalition, another gun rights organization just as stalwart and no-nonsense as Gun Owners of America, had filed a lawsuit challenging the State of New Jersey's semiautomatic rifle ban. Today, federal judge Peter G. Sheridan struck down NJ's semiauto rifle ban as unconstitutional and immoral, citing the FPC's well prepared package of evidence and arguments providing cold hard facts that not only is the AR-15 rifle the MOST commonly owned sporting, defense, and general utility rifle in the United States, but the rate of criminals using this type of rifle for nefarious activities is incredibly low. The subject of the lawsuit, the state government of New Jersey had no choice but to accept the verdict, although a deal allowed the state of NJ to keep the 10 round magazine limit in effect. The statewide FOID (Firearms Owners Identification) card requirement for New Jersey gun owners is still in effect.

It is a partial step, but nonetheless a step forward in the right direction. GOA and FPC members and their activism are the vanguard in this breaking ruling today, in a time when all of our institutions are under attack at the national and global level. This case illustrates just HOW IMPORTANT base level political activism is. Securing the local and community level and making them impenetrable to unwanted outside meddling is just as important as securing a Patriot presidency and national legislative systems.

BE ACTIVE LOCALLY. ENCOURAGE ALL TO VOTE IN LOCAL POLLS AND PETITIONS.

2) rem 700 223 8t 26" can or braked

SOLD Buyers BEWARE!

There is a scam going on where you reply to someone's thread saying you are interested buying their item and then you get text messages or emails from people pretending to be the seller. They are combing through posts and as soon as they see a reply they look up your account and message you directly trying to get you to PP or Venmo money. Don't fall for this trick! Make them message you directly from their snipers hide account. Below is an email I received and I received a text from someone different before that.

SOLD Tac Ops X-Ray 51 Sold

It breaks my heart to have to sell this amazing rifle. Since I purchased it from Mike(Tac Ops) in 2021 I have not had the time to shoot it like I had hoped. The rifle has only around 20 rounds through it. It has been kept in a humidity controlled safe and not seen much action. The rifle is flawless and shoots one hole groups as seen in Mike's pictured test target. My life has changed and I now need the money for a different venture. It has a detachable Accuracy International magazine. Comes with the TAC OPS drag bag which I think is the best gun bag you can buy. Also comes with the Pelican Case. These cases alone are around $800 separately. I am new to selling on Snipers Hide but after a conversation you will be comfortable buying from me and can verify who I am. It has a new Nightforce NXS 8-32x56 mounted with Leupold rings coated in birdsongs finish. I will offer the rifle with and without the scope. I will sell the rings with the rifle. Likely if you are reading this you know about these rifles. If you don't I will say I know of none made any better or more accurate. Again, breaks my heart to sell it but it can go to a better home.

Price: Rifle with Scope $7,500
Rifle without Scope $6,000

Buyer to pay shipping and any cc or transfer fees. Ships from The Woodlands, Texas.

Terminus zues barrels

Anybody know if there is a company out there that typically stocks QC zues barrels? Not really looking for a 8+ week wait time. Looking to pick one up pretty quick if Somone has them on the shelf. Have spoke with bugholes, also looking at a PVA barrel, any others?

Looking for zues QC 6.5cm barrel. Somthing 24-27” long. NOT carbon. Something heavy like a MTU/m24/heavy Palma/straight profile.

If anybody has any leads on a shop that has somthing like that sitting on the shelf please let me know.
