Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Well I did pick up my first AR last Thursday. I went for the S&W M&P15 PC
http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i2...371_102962.jpg

I need to get some sort of sight system on this thing and I want some good iron BUIS and was thinkin of these. The thing is the front picatinny rail is about 1/2" lower than the one on the receiver. Is this normal and will it affect the sights I put on it? One more thing. I want some optic sights but dont know what to get. It will be used mostly for target and varmint shooting to at the most 200 years. Suggestions?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

The Troy sights that you have pictured wont work with the set up you have. With that gas block rail system you're going to need a different set of sights. I don't think troy makes a gb mounted sight but I know that Midwest industries does,

http://www.midwestindustriesinc.com/...category_id=79

There may be other options out there, I'll have a look around

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

here are a couple more options

http://www.samson-mfg.com/ar-15_html...F-FFS-EXT.html

http://yankeehillmachine.com/store/sights.html

I'm sure there are cheaper places to buy them from.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

If I go with the sampson Im goin to assume it will line up with any rear sight. Is this correct?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I went with the Troy flip ups and I'm having the problem with the gas block being lower than the rear rail. Trying to find a riser of some sort to bring that front site up....

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

HK3 I think this would be the best bet


http://yankeehillmachine.com/store/product491.html

Would this work?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Seems to me that would do the trick. Thanks for the help. Much appreciated! :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

No problem. If u get one let me know how it is. I may be needing one as well. Are the troy sights worth it? I found a set but they are $250.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I have found my AR. Google search the Shootrite Katana.

Oh yeah.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Wow that rifle sounds amazing. Carbon fiber hand guards!!!!!!!!:dr

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Good question, I'm probably going to say yes, I wish that I could tell you yes for sure. sorry.

I'll say that I love my troy sights ! ! ! For what you have, looks like a 20"+ barrel, I'd just stick with the glass/optics. That is if all you're going to use it for is target and varmint shooting.

With that said, my personal opinion is always have a good set of iron sights on your rifle! ! !

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

WANT!

How do you like the straight pull action?


-Roland.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Its nice Roland especially on follow up shots....I have the same rifle in .308 and its for sale!!!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

.338 Lapua. Niiiiiiice chambering, sir. Nice.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

A friends dad got a stag with idk say a 18" barrel. He had iron sights as well as some kind of red dot or holographic sight. I think for now I just want to do iron sights, learn how to shoot it well with them, then drop the money on something nice

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

You know it is a good day when you ask your daughter what she wants to do on her 18th birthday and her reply is "Can we go shooting, Dad?"



I must have done at least one thing right.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

A very good day!!! Well done:tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Very nice! :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Just in case anyone has sent or was planning on sending anything to Anvil Arms, the company went under and the previous owner has made off with a large quantity of money, gun parts, and class III items.

This just happened within the last month...

This is going to get very very messy now that the BATFE is involved. The previous owner has been ordered to turn in all hardware and class III but has not complied as of yet.

Just wanted to give the gun heads like me a heads up. :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I have never used them. Thanks for the heads up! It is never good when the BATFE gets involved.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

If I could afford it, one would be under the tree for her.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Have you looked into CPO's? You can find them a great deal cheaper than new and often they are almost perfect in everyway. :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

The Sig she wants is the 556... I don't think there are any deals deep enough anywhere.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

No your probably right... don't think they have CPO 556's.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Anyone have an opinion about the Nikon Coyote Special in the 4.5x14?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I know there are quite a few of you who have an AR-15. When I get out of the academy in another 7 weeks I want to buy one my gift to myself. I was hoping I could get some input from those of you that have one. Ideally I would like to find one in the 6-700 dollar range if possible.

Where is a good place to buy one online?
Where is a good place to get inexpensive .223 rounds?

I was interested in this one:

http://www.ar15pro.com/item/64746_St...L_556NATO.aspx

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

gunbroker.com I've bought quite a few things off there. Great deals as well. They just ship to your local dealer or anyone that carries an FFL.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Here are a couple sites where I buy my .223 from:

AIM Surplus

Ammoman

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Call SCP Firearms ... My buddy Steve owns it. He sold me my DPMS SASS.
SCP Firearms

The other place to call is the Armory in Virginia Beach... Ask for Scott and tell him I sent you. (757) 424-1617

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

thanks for the info guys. What do you guys think about the one I was interested in? Here it is again

http://www.ar15pro.com/item/64746_St...L_556NATO.aspx

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

That's not a bad price for a NEW complete rifle.

Don't forget to check out ar15.com's equipment exchange. If you're patient, and check back often, there are good deals to be had.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Looks good to me. Just so you are aware, that is a left handed model. I would prefer a 1/7 twist, but a 1/9 twist will be fine :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I wish mine was a lefty. Never really had a problem getting drilled in the head by spent brass but I'm sure I'd appreciate it after a couple hundred rounds.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I assume I could order it in a right handed model?
