    Which High Quality Workhorse AR15 (or variant) for first AR?

    1.) The one you build will be better than any off the shelf rifle for your purposes. Can this "discount" be applied to parts? If so I can provide a parts list. 2.) As others have mentioned, an LMT (especially if you add their enhanced BCG to the upper) or KAC would be ideal. Can said...

    aero precision

    Comes down to what you want to spend, but the TriggerTech Adaptable DLC'd is fantastic.

    Reliable AR 15 Pistol

    Really comes down to your budget. But generally go 11.5in minimum for 5.56 to decrease internal parts wear and increase reliability. Hand in hand with that, get a quality adjustable gas block like an SLR Rifleworks or Superlative Arms, And finally, generally unless you are on a very tight...

    What's your favorite AR barrel.

    Bartlein, Cut Rock Creek, or Krieger from CLE, Craddock, or Keystone.

    Ballistic Advantage barrels?

    A lot of claims of 1moa in here with no pics. I've yet to see a BA barrel in 5.56 (what OP is talking about) do <1moa 5x5 consistently anywhere. You occasionally get even a fluke PSA barrel that will do 1moa 5x5, but it certainly isn' the average across the board, and the fact that we see none...

    Ballistic Advantage barrels?

    Unless you are going Ultra-budget and want to spend like $150 on your barrel, there is no reason to fuck around with BA. They are budget barrels that are just above PSAs in quality. No one has ever shown one in 5.56 doing <1moa 5x5 consistently. Their "MOA Guarantee" is marketing BS, it is...

    Gas buster alternative?

    redneckbmxer24 is 100% spot on OP. I'll just add the best CH I ever used for gas reduction is the Armageddon Tactical GMS-15 Gen II.

    AR15 SPR Muzzle Device Choices

    That is correct! I've actually been running that exact combo on a 16in AR and really liked it. But I found that it would tighten down so much after long range sessions (like 350+ rounds in an hour or two) that I'd need a strap wrench to take off the suppressor to clean the barrel. So I tried...

    AR15 SPR Muzzle Device Choices

    You need to click the tabs in the google sheets document, they are shooting 5.56 in the 5.56 tab, which I linked directly to I believe (if not here is a link): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16j3Nxr_3iKRKnVRTplwyDg5mApxqWhauRwFakB4PSQ0/edit#gid=1156700540 There are better mounts like...

    AR15 SPR Muzzle Device Choices

    Well it is your choice, just realize that there are mechanically superior options for the AR platform. And the TL;DR on the linked thread is the meter he is using (the LXT) doesn't have a fast enough rise time or high enough sample rate to catch the max pressure level. Which is to say it is...

    AR accuracy expectations

    Yes, CHF can produce very accurate barrels, but DD's aren't using their machines that way on their mass produced barrels/rifles. Bigjake, love how that rifle looks FYI.

    AR15 SPR Muzzle Device Choices

    El Xolo Mexicano Did you watch the above videos? There are absolutely no issues running suppressed with an AGB, it takes care of the dwell time issue because you can cut the flow significantly. Also, MAC's testing is invalid because he is using a met er that is incapable of capturing actual...

    DB10 6.5 Creedmoor

    The accuracy is sub-par on average for the DB guns I've seen. Certainly nothing close to a CTR. Plenty of sub-$2k alternatives, but the best option is to just build (or pay to have one built).

    AR accuracy expectations

    DDs are not precision firearms (at least not the one you have). All but a few purpose built ones are generally 1.5-3moa guns, even with good ammo. The problem you are having OP is that you are trying to squeeze precision out of a mass produced CHF barrel with a large chamber that has had no...

    AR15 SPR Muzzle Device Choices

    El Xolo Mexicano That is incorrect, an AGB doesn't decrease pressure but it does decrease flow. Slowing the BCG unlock and extraction, which significantly cuts down on the noise to the shooter. Here are three videos that illistraight this point very well: The AGB provides 5-7db...

    AR15 SPR Muzzle Device Choices

    Word of warning, do not buy an OSS suppressor, an adjustable gas block accomplishes pretty much the same thing (and the same db reduction to the ear) much cheaper and better. With OSS you'll have a heavier and longer can that needs to be cleaned and has very poor at the muzzle suppression. A...

    Thoughts on the SIG 716 DMR G2?

    I'm not sure why anyone would buy one. You can buy better rifles for the money (like the Seekins) and you can build much better rifles for the money. Unless you are getting it on a very good sale, skip it.

    First Long Distance/Precision Build. Input welcomed.

    1.) There is no reason for the Geissele Super spring. The Tubbs flatwire lightweight will be much better for your uses. 2.) Might want to consider a Larue trigger if you can wait for price/performance. That said, good sales on Giesselle right now. 3.) The best charging handle I've ever used...

    Build vs Buy, your experience.

    Building is always superior to any factory rifle bar none, as long as you know what you are doing (or pay for the time of someone who does). There are just an immense number of fantastic parts you can choose from that are not available (or not ALL available) in any factory rifle. However...
