    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    Here is one even more clear. My M5 upper on an actual DPMS LR-308 lower before i got the M5 lower.

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    History, first hand usage and testing (outside the company), a track record. Unknown resolved issues that are normally only corrected over the course of time.

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    Ohh gotcha. Before I dive into their site. What are uppers and lowers goin for? And due to the lack of a true mil-spec for AR10, what is proprietary to them?

    I thought they had good QC and a very good anodizing finish? Am I wrong?

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    On your comment tho, what other brands of the DPMS LR-308 platform are above DPMS and Aero? Most of the other higher end companies are either proprietary, or are Armalite platform. I am just curious

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    For the trigger pins, i was gonna use a CMC trigger with the screws and a drop of Blue LT. That seems to be the ticket with most of my builds

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    Oh I agree 110%. I normally prefer better receivers. For my 5.56 setups I run Seekins or DD. But I got the M5 lower to match an M5 upper that a good friend built for me and it matches. Otherwise I would lean more towards an SP10 or a REPR. But I figured I would work with what I have to make it...

    That is a good point. Not to mention there is also taking a ton of time to research which high-end parts work best with the M5.

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    Would Geissele or LMT AR15 kits work with the M5 lower minus the bolt catch and pivot pin? I am thinking about all pins, detents and springs that go with it also.

    M5 build - KAC compatibility questions

    Hello all, I am using an Aero M5 lower and upper receiver along with extended M5 pivot pin to avoid the recess. What other brands work with the M5 lower? I am a KAC diva and would like to use their LPK and any other parts I can (minus pivot pin). But don't wanna drop the coin on any KAC stuff to...

    Rifle Length crushed tungsten buffer?

    Do any reputable manufacturers make a crushed tungsten filled rifle length buffer for the AR15? Something similar to Spikes Tactical tungsten carbine buffer but in rifle length? Been hunting around and haven't found much.

    IWI Tavor X95 vs. Steyr AUG M3 A1 relaibility & durability

    I can see the advantages they were going for in their overall design and performance, and it was by no means lagging anywhere except in the financial department.
