Reminds me of this bullshit
Some months and many pages ago I wrote a post featuring the McCloy Implement Primary Canted Mount, a gay and retarded optic mount that for some reason moves your optic between 16-21 degrees off center for some reason ("slick recce end user knowledge transfer kinesthetic biomechanics bro!")
I am now aware of their pricing, brace yourselves, if you took offense at the pricing of the GBRS or Irregular Defense mounts was offensive, wait until you hear this.
They want $1500-1900 for this bullshit, not for sale to civilians.

In doing a little bit of research on the above item, I have found something that I can only find one reference to online, and said reference is a boomer's barely functioning blog
A Flechette Pistol from the AAI Corporation.

XM177E1 with craft built extended magazine, capacity is unknown but I would guess 50-60 rounds. An XM177E2 (the birth of the 11.5 barrel that the US Mil. would avoid again until the URGI MK18) with suppressor, optic, foregip and one of those would have been the ultimate MACV-SOG rifle (and the best part of this is that this wouldn't be fantasy football, MACV-SOG made limited usage of all those accessories)

You've hear of the cultural icon, the Spas-12, maybe even it's successor, the Spas-15, but have you heard of it's predecessor? The Spas-11?

Lastly, PSA has teased, this thing. While it is obviously an Ayy arr fideen I do not know what the inspiration for it is, closest I can fine is a LaFrance M16K but that isn't a complete match (though they do seem to be implying that based on the phonetics of their post "M16 kay". The hunk of plastic on the buffer tube is also not a stock, but a prototype brace.

after putting 2.5x the price of what I bought it for, my glockomatic 45 no longer needs any fiddling. That glock performance trigger was the last piece missin and it performs extremely well and the SRO isn't any trouble at all to conceal
That's a Radian Weapons part on it, yes? I love their stuff. I use their charging handles and safeties on all my ARs, and I have a few of their lower receivers in rotation too. I heard their rifles are good but even if I could afford one I can't imagine being dumb enough to pay $3k+ for an AR carbine.

I too like the SRO. They're tough. I use them on my competition pistol and one on my safari rifle. Neither have ever had an issue.

Just when you think the firearms market can't find anything stupider to market (folding Glocks, anything from GBRS, position sul/temple index, etc.) they manage to exceed expectations yet again.

They're either retards, or they're hoping to write it off on their taxes.

I've seen a bunch of magazines like these in pics from Vietnam, also GI mags spliced together, or captured AK mags spliced onto the bottom of GI mags to make stendos.

Yep, the afterburner comp and the ramjet barrel combo. It works extremely well with my stock spring, and just eats through ammo without any hiccups. I had another comp for awhile that wouldn't run with 115gr reliably at all, and I dont have access to a lot of 124gr ball so that was my main reason for it. That and it's just bitchin.

As for their ARs I've heard they're quality is deteriorating, I can't say eitherway but I agree spending that much is ludicrous. That and billet AR recievers are haram imo.

I had a buddy tell me that the SRO was terrible for carry, so far it's great and since I don't have a habit of bashing my gun into things I'm pretty sure it'll be fine. I've still got to get it properly sighted in this weekend, can't wait!

I think for my next financial disaster I'm going to pick up a dd4 rIII, they seem to live up to the hype, at least the upper.

Is it just me or is this making the sight offsets you use for NBC or NOD into a permanent offset for no discernable reason, other than gay ass HSLD cool guy marketing? Also QD sling swivels, lol, lmao even. Use 550 cord retard, it's 10,000% cheaper and makes no noise
But not buying it will lower your cool gun guy score at the range.
What will all the other heavy 6 mall ninjas think!
 
Just some of what I have:

Riley defense RAK-47
Glock 41
Rossi 38 special revolver
Beretta 84b
Mosin nagant m91/30
Jap type 99 arisaka
Vz-24
Winchester 1300 defender

Wanting to get a Daniel defense AR soon too but not sure

I decided to “pull the trigger” and get a ddm4v7 pro. Mostly bc I got it for a crazy good deal but I’m beyond happy to have this gun:gunt:
 
I recently came across an AR that looked like a good deal, and I've never really heard of Black Rain Ordnance prior to seeing it on the rack; although I know I've seen their edgy brand roll-mark before. It was priced to beat even the PSAs in stock, but something about it made me go "hmmm".

So after doing a quick internet search of their overall reputation & reliability, first I gotta say that BRO stans are every bit as cringe & lulzy as the rifles & company itself.

"They're great rifles, better than PSA; all I had to do was ____, ____, ____, and ____. Now it runs like a dream!"

:story:
Besides that though, evidently BRO processes & QA/QC are absolute garbage...
... but hey, good enough for government work!

:stress:
Whoever is putting these rifles together must have problems sleeping at night, day-drinking/getting stoned, oversold their experience to get hired, simply doesn't care about their job, or pick any 3 of the above. But in any case, I'm glad I didn't waste time & money on it.... because wow

Vietnam-era carbine length ARs are kicking around in LE storage
a pretty large quantity actually - it was during the 70's that a lot of police departments purchased AR-15s to replace some shotguns or submachineguns in inventory since the 1950's or earlier or started receiving them to be better equipped against armed gangs and as counterpoint to drug traffickers that used AKs or ARs from South America. they weren't generally surplus though until the late 80's or 90's. one guy i know had a patrol rifle that was pretty modern, but the lower was a M16 (not M16A1, but an M16) with the FCS swapped out for a semi-auto group and the upper replaced with an A2 Carbine upper to make it similar to newer Colt 6920's.

it was before police or military had red dots commonly which was more of a 2000's thing, so target sights or field sights were very common.

Black Rain Ordnance
i've heard of them, but sort of like Spike's i never really used them in a professional capacity. figured it was the same type of weird pseudo edgy shit that try hards are into, like tribal tattoos on jello arms that want to look badass without actually doing badass things. Bushmaster (pre-buyout), Armalite, RRA, Colt (and other military contractors), et c were the general go-to with shoutouts to Ruger and S&W (since they're a bit new to AR-15s by comparison). Kinda wish Olympic Arms or Sabre Defence was still around.

I don't usually watch bullshit "restoration" videos, but this one is....
:stress:
There's a lot of dubious 'restoration' channels out there, but he makes compelling arguments as to why his are legit and why a lot of others are not, even pointing out various telltale signs of fakery. I can definitely see an old G41 still kicking around somewhere in Europe, perhaps in a less than legal collection at some point, hence why it was illegally ditched with some other weapons which exhibited similar damage (maybe they were in a flood?).

How many Vietnam-era carbine length ARs are kicking around in LE storage?
There's some around in the US still, though I kind of doubt there's any larger organizations with a lot of old AR15s who'd need to contract out something like this to La Rue, you'd think it'd be a lot cheaper to just get brand new upper receivers or even all new guns. They're either just making up a story, or this is for some larger client which actually has a LOT of old AR15s, and by that I don't mean random US police departments.

There's a lot of old M16s and CAR15s outside the US, the Flips have a bunch, and South Korea too, they even made them under license for a while, then you've got the Vietnamese, who fought hard for theirs. These three countries seem like they'd be the likelier candidates for that supposed story, though I'm not so sure any of them would find a great need for something like that.

Put a rail mount in the carry handle, a riser on the stock, and now you're free to free float the barrel if you want. The free float handguard can have railz too, so you can be 200% tacticool.

Kinda wish Olympic Arms or Sabre Defence was still around.
At least we have Windham Weaponry (classic Bushmaster).

Regarding those Black Rain rifles, I'm always surprised when a company produces a product that simply will not run, clean, with factory ammo, loaded to normal specs. I could understand if they had some kind of extra heavy 70-75 grain pills and it was under-gassed or something but, right out of the box and it won't run? No excuse.


Speaking of uppers that won't run right, I purchased a PSA target .223 Wylde upper and was dissapointed to see it not running the heavy 69 grain BTHP .223 factory loads. Now my understanding is when a rifle is under-gassed if the gas block is NOT causing the issue by being installed incorrectly, the gas port needs to be opened, the problem is this is a match grade barrel. I have in the past drilled gas ports larger and had success adding more "punch" to the heavy pills I was lobbing down range. I do not want to fuck with a match grade stainless bore by drilling into it, I went over to the buffer and opened it up, removed %60 of the weight inside and replaced it with a an Aluminum dowel I cut to the same size. I've yet to take this to the range but, I'm hoping that solves this, instead of having to redrill the gas port oversized.
