    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    Well, I wouldn't say I'm trying to bend the rules. I'm going to follow them, but I'm not going to limit what I can do if there's no rule that limits me. And no, never did I complain about the recoil. Thanks for your support. Right, just that I probably won't open up the gas port myself...

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    1) As far as following the rules, I see no mention of required BCG or buffer system weight. I had the JP SCS in both ARs I owned; I enjoyed them, and planned on going that way as well. On the one had, I feel I shouldn't have to go "incognito", because as far as I can tell, I'm not doing...

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    I really hoped this topic wouldn't get such heated opinions. I just wanted to build the best rifle I could while still adhering to the rules. That's what I'm thinking; minimal affect, but, any little bit that can help adds up. Plus it adds the the aesthetic, which is somewhat important, it...

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    I mean... that's kinda what I'm going for here. The rules state you MAY use an optic, so how many people aren't going to throw one on? And 4.5X is the max, so why not go with that? The rifle I shot was a 4X, and the owner stated he'll be going to 4.5X soon. Follow the rules, of course. But...

    I honestly never heard that term before; had to look it up.

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    Not complaining about it, but it exists, and I'm wondering what I can do to mitigate it. Yeah, I get it. And part of me is worried that it is cheating; not gonna pursue it if it is. But at the same time, loading a rifle up with lead isn't? And wearing a crazy jacket to keep me stable is...

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    That's kinda the problem... why is it a bad thing if I wanna do everything I can to tune the rifle properly, but stuffing it full of lead is okay? I doubt anyone issued an M16 would want to double its weight. But hey, maybe I'm wrong. I shot a loaner gun and got 425/500 my first time trying...

    Looks interesting, I'll try to read up on how it works. Thanks.

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    Haven't gotten there yet. Just wanted to see if my thinking was even an option. I don't really wanna make the spring too heavy, as it might be difficult to charge it. Dunno, how heavy does it need to be to compensate for a light BCG? But if that's what I have to do... Not sue what an...

    How to reduce AR15 recoil WITHOUT adjustable gas block or muzzle brake?

    I'm looking to build a Service Rifle AR15 for CMP EIC, and there are certain rules that must be adhered to. The big ones are: -5.56/.223 -Stoner gas impingement or piston, NO adjustable gas block -20" barrel max, no portion of the barrel may exceed 0.75" forward of the gas block -No muzzle...

    I finally ordered a new scope mount; Spuhr ISM with a height of 1.73". Same one I've got now, but my current one is 1.5" high. Even though that seems pretty standard, I just need extra height it seems. Ultimately gonna throw the Gen II Razor and Spuhr onto my GAP 10, which already has a...

    My range allows 50 bmg once a month, at 600 yards. I just meant that maybe I'd use the 50 for more casual shooting than for ELR, when that day comes. I get what you're saying about that blast; it was pretty massive.

    That HTI looks crazy! And nice grouping! You're thinking you might prefer that setup to a 375? I guess I'm leaning towards 50 for fun, 375 for performance, especially if I can still keep it down around the stock HTI length and weight. But I'm looking to get as much info as I can before...

    I guess I'll just have to get one and find out for myself, then.

    I'm no sniper; I'm a submariner. But I don't believe that the Barrett M82 or M107 are sniper rifles. More for anti material, like you said about the 50 causing devastating affect. It's not that it's inaccurate, just that there are more accurate options. It's good at what it does; high rate of...

    The HTI does come in 50, though. And Barretts while fun, aren't accurate in semi auto. I would love an HTI and an M82, it's just hard to justify two $7k rifles.

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    That's kinda where I'm at a crossroads; I want a 50, and it's necessary for the 50 cal club, and it seems easier to find and cheaper to reload. But the 375 will be better, I can shoot it any day but the 50 cal day, and it'll be more capable for when I do ELR. Plus it won't beat me up as bad. I...
