AR-15 Picture Thread

Meyah killed this thread, dammit. So here's mine, just to bump for more pix. She needs pimping, suggestions welcome. (Cheap sling is already gone.)

 

Novice? Hah. I have just under 500 rounds thru her, more than thru any other rifle than 22 cal.. But I agree on the irons, seems like getting proficient with them makes sense in case all else fails, which is what the Murph likes to see.

So far as optics go, the carbine sorta limits reaching out too far, thus the red dot or similar thinking. Also has crossed my mind that something on the order of a 4X fixed power scope could help the eyes with seeing out to maybe 200 yards, after which the accuracy has to degrade with the 5.56 in a short barrel. Giving that very serious thought due to the cost factor.
:dunno:
Still thinking, that's all that's in my wallet for now.

BTW, Fulton's catalog has a very similar item for very little more, if that price range is still under consideration. Those guys are the best, talking and dealing. When money permits, they are going to get my business on something 308.

 

With me on the trigger, that is REALLY optimistic.

This, too, is a major consideration. I have no shoulders and a long neck, not to mention my propensity to crawl the stock. Thinking goes to a pistol scope. But it all has to wait on coin accumulation. I should say that the 5.56 does NOT present bitten eyebrows problems with the Wolf 55 gr in that regard. One more reason for the experiments with the loads I just bought.

 

Nice weapon Ghirt

 

Thank you. She and I are still getting used to one another. She does need some dressing, tho' --

 

I still haven't gotten a pic of that pistol. I'll get to it EL...

 

OK EL...

It used to be this...

 

Yeah, E.L.
The Carbon models are every bit as good as aluminum. Not a whole hell of a lot of stress on them anyway
