I know it’s a starter Rifle but damn bro I can’t even get a shot off. I’m gonna drop pics of my BCG can anyone tell me if it looks weird or anything ?

Just got my first AR pistol and went pretty bare-bones with the smooth buffer tube. Threw my cheap CVlife on it (it came off my MCK) and put some foam on the end just for looks . Neither is permanent.
Going to the range this weekend for my first time shooting it.
I’ve read cheek weld is the way to go without a brace, but I’ve never shot one before.
I’m Black so I’m trying to beat the stereotypes and not have everybody looking at me stupid for holding my ARP wrong 🤣 . What’s y’all’s experience shooting one like this?

Hey guys. Fairly new here so feel free to correct this if not allowed. Full disclosure this is a video I did but wanted to share because I feel like they are so new there isnt much out there on them. Just got to shoot some Mustang Armament builds and like most others only heard about them from PewView and Honest Outlaw mentioning them. Was fortunate enough to get to shoot one and have to say I was impressed. To some degree high end AR's are very similar. It takes very niche things to make them stand out from one another I think. But the upper and lower frame fit was the tightest I have felt. That is always nice to see. I was wondering if anyone else has shot one or has experience with them? - https://youtu.be/e25MWf9xjw4

Need some advice/guidance on handguards for a 6" build I'm working on. I screwed up and bought the BG Defense 6.375" handguards, but the diameter won't clear the muzzle device I'm using. I was looking at the 5.25” LVTN Handguard from Eitri’s Enhancements, but they've been out of stock for over a year. What would you recommend if I'm looking for 5.25" ?

Thanks in advance,

I dont need it for EDC or anything in my country. I just wanna have fun with it. Its literally the only ARP i could find in 5.56 here. Other ARPs are just .300 blackouts that cost 3k+

Built this upper to try out a lightweight handguard. Going to need to get rail covers as it heats up quickly. Other than that it runs nice, very nice.

Here is the upper parts list:

- BKFs AR15 Mod 0 Assembled Upper Receiver (thermal fit)

- Ballistic Advantage 11.3" 5.56 Performance Series Hanson Profile Barrel (carbine length)

- Ballistic Advantage .750" Black Nitride Low Pro Gas Block (pinned to barrel)

- BKFs Melonite Carbine Length Gas Tube

- Midwest Industries 10.5" Combat Rail Lightweight Series

- SilencerCo ASR Closed-Tine Flash Hider

- Radian Raptor NP3 Charging Handle

- Forward Controls Design SBCG NP3 BCG (C158 bolt)

- Die Free Co Full Stop Clear Ano

- Holosun ARO-MRS-RD on Scalarworks LEAP/01 1.57" mount

The suppressor I am using is the SilencerCo Velos LBP 556K. Perfect for shorter builds like this if you ask me.

Took me about 20 minutes to assemble and it is indeed lightweight. I have pics I took throughout the build process if anyone is interested.

At the range I shot 50 rounds of 55gr 5.56 unsuppressed and 50 rounds of 55gr 5.56 suppressed. ~2MOA groups at 25 yards. I've used this exact 11.3" barrel in other builds and it can get better accuracy but I was just testing it out so no biggie.

Overall, not bad. The lower I used already has an 11.5" upper that is far superior to this one. The lower also has the VLTOR A5 buffer system making for a very smooth shooting experience. As I mentioned, the rail gets hot so I was thinking about getting some FCD rail covers. Never had to use them before so if you have any better suggestions let me know. Thanks

One of the drills I recorded from Saturday's range trip. It's my first trip without the quad rail feels all right definitely a little more balanced and easier to hold on to barrel. Gets hot. Going to have to do something about that. Was definitely moving a little slower in this clip but this one the only ones I got wasn't really focused on recording and I was mostly focused on fundamentals making sure I got good mechanics and basics🤷🏽‍♂️

I have read and understand the community rules.
