NFOA AR15 (AKA "Evil Black Rifle") Picture Thread
« on: January 25, 2011, 11:42:43 AM »
If you guys want to make this thread "official" and sticky it or something, I'm totally cool with that.  :D

Please keep this thread full of pictures. It's nice to hear compliments on your rifles but post a picture if you want to comment, even if it isn't yours. Please do say it isn't your's though!

I'll kick it off... Not the best quality pictures but they get the job done. I've got two carbines so far, I may need to add a Special Purpose Rifle type longer-range build in the future or maybe an AR10-type. Erm, I mean, I *had* two carbines before that awful boating accident.  :angry9:

First is my Bushmaster gas piston based on the Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF) piston system:


Second is my BCM 14.5" SOCOM upper with Spike's Tactical complete self-assembled (bought their LPK):

I'll play....

Here's my first AR that I built for 3-gun.  I usually run it with an A2 stock, but I just built a new lower and had to stick my upper on it to see how it looked.  It has an 18" White Oak SPR barrel, BCM bolt carrier group and upper receiver, Midwest Industries handguard, Matech rear sight and YHM front sight/gas block.  Yes, it's a mutt but it's a good shooter.



Here's a mockup of my current project that I built the lower for.  It's going to be a 12.5" 6.8 SPC once I get my stamp back from the ATF.  It will have a carbine length gas system, but midlength handguard.  The gas block near the muzzle will be for a front sight only.

Working on rounding out my collection of other types of firearms, then I'll be back to the black rifles. Liking the looks of the 300 AAC Blackout very much...

Robert, what type of folding front sight do you have on that i'm thinking about a midwest indust one the mabuis one are polymier and suggest not to put one of those on the gas block. I was at scheels and they had a promag one but its design was more like n-star folding and I am not opposed to the n-star but if I get the n-star it was 50.00 cheaper than the promag at 70.00.

the folding sights are the troy industries.  they come standard on the M&P15T.  i like them.  they were very accurate every time i used them.  the only bad thing is the eye relief is pretty short on the ACOG so, i can't pull up the rear sight without taking the ACOG off.

ive tried a few NC Star stuff and i didn't like the stuff.  i would invest some money into sights since that what you use to aim your gun.  guns are useless if you can't aim!

I don't have any professional looking shots of mine, but this is the favorite that I do have...

My girlfriend with my AR back when the ground was snow free:



BCM 16" complete upper
LaRue 12" rail
Troy Battlesights
Spikes complete lower
Magpul accessories

Hopefully saving enough to get some nice optics this spring.

Awesome EBRs so far fellas!!!

Here is my contribution, first is my BCM 16" middy, my newest rifle  (see my thread below).  Its got a Magpul rear flip up sight, Eotech 512, CTR buttstock, and MS2 sling.  It's on a RRA lower built with a Daniel Defense LPK.  I think I'm gonna put on DD Omega 9 rail and be done (I swear).  Sweet shooter with the mid length gas system.  Love this gun.



Next up is my first EBR.  Its a DPMS 16" A2 style carbine with a cheap set of rails and a Magpul MOE buttstock.  Still a sweet shooter but not as smooth as the BCM.



Both guns have been 100% reliable without a single hiccup.   BRING ON THE ZOMBIES!!!!

Rich, how do you like that Battle Comp?  I'm thinking of getting one for my 6.8 build.

I *love* the battle comp. Very fun muzzle device. Follow-up shots feel so much quicker and it made both my carbines a lot more enjoyable to shoot.

I don't mean to go off topic, but I had to comment on the Battlecomp.  It is a great comp, just a bit too loud for me.  Are you looking for one?  If so, I am looking to unload one...  :)
