Gents, it's a whole new year... and that means new AR-15's and other semi's. Show off what the fat man brought you or what you've otherwise acquired to start 2014 off with a bang!

post your Pics + specs/info, but lets keep chatter to a minimum so PM the owners for questions.

I'll start:



*mk12 mod 0 i built from spare parts i had lying around. it is functional as an ar-15 but I am running it as .22LR right now with these specs:

-spikes no-shelf lower
-geissele SSA 2-stage trigger (yes it works in a 22lr)
-CMMG bravo model stainless 22lr conversion bcg (pic shows regular bcg)
-spec mk12 mod 0 parts including PRI forend & gas block, ARMS top rail, ARMS 40L buis, Ops inc collar & brake
-barrel is 1-9, really likes rem subsonics... shooting quarter sized groups at 50ft rapid fire
-Falcon 1.5-5x30 optic
 
Most recent acquisition is a JP LRP-07H in .308. I added the thermal dissipator, silent capture spring and the UBR stock. It has a Bushnell ET 3-12 mounted on top. It's pictured in a Larue mount but I have since changed to the JP mount that the rifle came with. I haven't shot it yet but I can tell that I'm going to love it.

After talking with Sig, and the new 716 Precision currently being redesigned from the ground up, again, I just snagged another 716 Patrol with a Vortex PST 1-4, and ordered an Armalite SASS-A that takes Pmags. Armalite should be here in a week or two hopefully and gets a Vortex Razor HD 5-20x50 to see how it works... if it sucks, to the Hide it goes and a large check to Nightforce for another ATACR.

Here is the upper half of my new SI Tier One Recce I received this week. The lower will be at my FFL Tuesday. Will post a picture of the entire rifle after I pick up the complete lower.

 
Troy Defense 5.56 Carbine

1713F177-CD9F-44FE-ACB2-4EFC23776C68.jpg



-Chrome Moly Vanadium Melonite coated 1/7 RH twist barrel, chambered in 5.56 with M4 feed ramps
-Troy Industries free float modular 13″ Alpha Rail system with integrated spring loaded front M4 Battlesight
-Mil-Spec bolt and carrier with properly staked gas key
-Troy Industries Battle Ax 6 position
-Troy Industries Medieval Flash Suppressor/or pinned Claymore Muzzle Brake
-Troy Industries Rear Folding BattleSight

I've been wanting one of these for a while and my LGS had one marked way down so I traded them straight across for another rifle I had. Going to add a silencerco saker brake, and putting a IOR 2-12x32 in a larue mount on it. May or May not change up the stock and grip depended on how I like them after a few range sessions. I've heard these are pretty accurate with 62's and 77's so I guess we will see.
 
started building them in 2013 but finished in 2014. Does that count?

Something I slapped together and cerakoted. Both Noveske gen 2 lowers


 
Nowhere near as cool or precision minded as what some of you have built for the new year, but here is my humble addition for 2014. My 12 year old brother stayed with us for a few weeks over Christmas/New Years and decided he wanted his "own" AR-15. He did 99% of the work, only needing help with torqueing a few things, installing the trigger group, and installing the trigger guard.

I dug through my junk and extra pile, and came up with just about enough stuff to build the complete rifle. He picked out the sling and MOE mid-length hand guard at the local sporting goods store. The Nikon P-223 and mount were prizes from a shoot, so I only put about $60.00 into the build.

11870517256


Parts list:

Stag lower
"Mystery" upper from a gun show long ago
YHM bolt carrier assembly
Delton trigger
DPMS(?) 1:7 16" middy barrel
MFT stock
MOE mid-length hand guards
Blackhawk grip

Turned out to be a really handy little carbine. He put a couple hundred rounds through it during a couple sub-zero range visits and maybe 300 more indoors. Really seems to like 69 gr Sierras over Benchmark. He shot quite a few 2.5-3" groups at 100, especially considering the 3x optic and his inexperience. Every once in a while he would start putting together a really good group and blow it with the last round. He can't wait to come back this spring and wring out "his" rifle some more!

I hate you because I'm jealous. I want that buttstock. I wonder when Lancer will make it available as an individual part. I'm happy to see it out in the wild in a consumer's arms, even if it is on a complete build.

That is one fine looking shooter.

Finally finished converting my R-25 from .243 to .308 in 2014. Project included paint and a few other upgrades as well.

 
Thanks. I'm extremely happy with it. I actually have a Leupold Mark 4 LR/T 3.5-10x40 M3 FFP on my P308 that's getting moved to the Recce in a ADM QD Mount with Troy FDE BUIS. Switching from the Nightforce rings to the ADM QD mount so I can pop off the Mark4 and throw on a Browe 4x BCO 5.56 when needed.

Putting either a Vortex or SWFA with more magnification on the P308

My first AR pistol build (.300 Blackout), just completed. Picked up a PSA lower with parts kit during Black Friday.

-PSA lower
-Spikes upper
-CMMG 8.5" barrel
-RRA pistol buffer tube
-JP Silent Capture Spring
-Sig SB15 brace
-Samson Evolution 9" rail
-Noveske Flaming Pig flash hider
-Hogue grip
-Primary Arms red dot

I built it on a budget, will get it out tomorrow to test it out. Waiting on my TBAC 30P-1 to come in, but wanting to order a TBAC 30PSS to get a shorter length, as the 30P-1 is more of a precision can.

Thanks, and the Samson Evolution series have a 1.56" internal diameter. The TBAC suppressor *should* fit, as the outside diameter is 1.5" but that .06" isn't much to play with. I'm not sold on the Samson Evolution yet however, as I can shift it side to side just a bit. It doesn't shift enough to touch the barrel or the Noveske KX3, but enough that you can tell it shifted. I contacted Samson a few days ago for some advice or tips, but haven't heard back from them yet.

Got the pistol to the range this morning though; it ran perfect. I shot 125-grain SMK ammo, supersonic of course. The rifle cycled fine, and I didn't experience any gas blowback to the face which I had heard can happen with these shorter builds. I fired 30 rounds total as that's all I had time for. The Primary Arms dot was on the money once sighted in, and I was happy with everything overall. I can't wait to get it suppressed.

I've got a Leupy LR/T, a Geissele SSA-E and a Turner sling coming that I snagged on the 'Hide, and some lower parts and a buttstock from WOA on their way. We'll see where this goes. . .
 
Here's a few updated pics. Got the TSD Kompressor, ERGO Grip, B.A.D. Ambi Safety and Diamondhead Micro BUIS installed then put 120rds of 55gr FMJ through it today to function test. Ran flawlessly without a single issue.

I had the Diamondhead Micro BUIS NIB in the closet that I just threw on to function test the rifle. Gonna throw them in the For Sale section tonight so I can buy either the Troy's or another set of Diamondheads in FDE to match the rifle.

Guess I started my first build for 2014, picked up an extra blem mod 3 charging handle from BCM. Only a matter of time before it grows into another rifle.
E.T.A. Just ordered an 80% lower on a Rockethub project, might be a while before it shows up.(2/1/14)
Ordered a budget PSA bcg, lpk, and adjustable buttstock/buffer/spring.(2/8/14) showed up (2/22/14)
Ordered a stripped upper receiver for an M231 firing port weapon( like an M16A1 upper receiver without the rear sight or forward assist)(2/28/14)showed up(3/6/14)
Ordered a retro CAR15 style adjustable buttstock and steel charging handle from DSA(3/7/14)
Charging handle showed up a while ago, buttstock on backorder.
Ordered a Del ton light weight 20" barrel, Brownells low profile gas block, and A1 flash hider from J.S.E. Surplus.(5/24/2014)
Borrowed a Hogue floating forearm tube and nut, as well as a rail adaptor from an old AR pistol project and assembled the upper. Fits good on my DPMS lower, haven't gotten it to the range yet.
