Welp, I went to the range today and ended up making an impulse buy. I'm now the proud owner of a brand new Glock 19.

Gen 3. What's the difference between generations? I didn't think to ask.What gen?
Gen 3 has by far the largest aftermarket.Gen 3. What's the difference between generations? I didn't think to ask.
Did you put a whole bunch of oil on before firing?I was firing my AR-15 and noticed there was smoke coming out from all sides while firing it.
Smoke coming off the barrel and out of the gap between upper and lower and the charging handle.
Also the cheap $100 red dot sight didn't work lol, I can see why money is important to buy optics.
Yeah I did use a lot of CLP wipes on it.Did you put a whole bunch of oil on before firing?

I would say after 20 smoke started coming out from the barrel.
Looks like you found the smoke point of CLP lol -- how many shots do you suppose it took?

Where is your GAY R on this scientifically developed chart?I was firing my AR-15 and noticed there was smoke coming out from all sides while firing it.

My brand is not listed there.Where is your GAY R on this scientifically developed chart?
As others have mentioned, that smoke is probably oil/grease burning off. I know guys that swear by running their rifles "wet", but I use very little grease on my ARs - just a bit on the bolt body, bolt lugs and cam pin, some on the BCG wherever it contacts the receiver and that's about it.I was firing my AR-15 and noticed there was smoke coming out from all sides while firing it.

My brand also isn't listed there. Grey Ghost Precision. They make specialty rifles for SOCOM.Where is your GAY R on this scientifically developed chart?
Funny you mention Romeo5, because it was the Romeo5.As others have mentioned, that smoke is probably oil/grease burning off.

As for the optic, you don't have to spend too much more than $100 to get something that doesn't completely suck - the Sig Romeo5 (or Holosun/Primary Arms equivalent) is typically not too much more than that and can often be had for a bill on sale. It's not an Aimpoint, but it'll take a reasonable amount of abuse and hold zero.
If you really want to upset HK fanboys, tell them there's no actual difference between HK, MKE, and POF MP5s.All those tiers lists are AIDS, the only good ones are the joke ones where they'll put PSA in high tier or HK in poverty tier just to watch people freak out.
I guess that I might know the answer to this question, how come those German rifles don't use buffer tubes?If you really want to upset HK fanboys, tell them there's no actual difference between HK, MKE, and POF MP5s.
Well, that sucks. I haven't had any problems with mine, but the worst it's seen is some light local competition use.Funny you mention Romeo5, because it was the Romeo5.
Before I went out, I tested it and it did work.
Go to the range and all of a sudden it would not turn on or work.
Well I also do have Aimpoint for another AR and its very good.
I guess I will look into another Aimpoint or Eotech or Trijcon once I get some dough saved up.
I will admit that the UTG Pro MBUS that comes with the Saints are decent but nowhere as good as the Magpul Pro MBUS.
