Show Me Your AR's

Here's a couple from a few years back.


The bottom two are mine, nothing special. A Colt and Rock River, used them on duty years ago.

The ones above are buddies that were on the sniper team or former military snipers.

I have my eye on S&W AR Model now.

You guys are dangerous.

I just have a lowly Glock. I am looking at a Sig Sauer though.

This was mine before I sold it to pay some bills:





I took the cheap vertical grip off shortly after taking those pictures.

I loved the Aimpoint. Those things are so cool.

yes, almost as versitile as a metal forend, but not nearly as heavy.

Here is my Eagle Arms. My dad and I built this gal in 1993 as a standard CAR type with green furniture prior to the ban. Over the last couple weeks I have been modernizing her with the flattop & railed forearm. She now(last night) got a Flat Dark Earth M4 stock and will be getting a FDE pistol grip, forward PG, and railcovers in the immediate future(I moved to the desert). Haven't decided on an optic yet but leaning Aimpoint or Eotech.

Kinda reminds me of a G3, Mako.. With the colour scheme. Know what I mean?

I miss my ARs... Had 8 of them quite a few years ago.

I just can't believe you guys would post such offensive, dangerous, devices clearly intended to commit murder and mayhem!

Just kidding, I'm just jealous. I don't own one of my own, but have carried taxpayer owned M-4 carbines.

That's a nice looking HK by the way.


Let an old man dream after all...some day....some day....

Yeah 20 years ago not many choices for colors, black or green, I decided green looked less intimidating than all black. Plus I always liked seeing the ol' African G3s in SOF magazine growing up. Nowadays you can get stocks in yellow or even pink if you want! Mine will soon be a nice Flat Dark Earth, kinda a nice even tan, to blend with the terrain where I live. I'll post another pic in a week or so after I have some more done with it!

You won't touch your Glock when you grab a Sig.

I love the Aimpoint sighting systems, I have the M3. I love the Surefire you have mounted.

8! That is one of the few things that will never lose their value.

They're not very expensive to make or buy. If you state allows it you can grab a good one to build on for under $1k

Something tells me .223 or 5.56 rounds aren't going to work on a zombie

I plan on picking up a S&W or Sig AR in the near future; my wife will likely take one of these for work so it will give me an excuse to buy another one

Beautiful!

Hey I saw your sigline; I have a Merkur slant I'll trade you for it

PM sent?



If anyone wondered why I carelessly had the safety off, the fire selector won't move from single fire when the handle isn't charged. Don't know if other ARs are like that, don't really have a lot of experience with them.

I have a vertical grip as well, but I can't decide whether I like it or not. When I use it, it seems to be in my way all the time, except for administrative carrying.

You can definitely build one pretty cheap. I did mine about 20 years ago but have been contemplating doing another. You can build a plain jane M4gry carbine or A2/3 rifle for probably less than $600 if you shop around. Obviously thats minus optics and gadgets but it would get ya goin. The beauty is you can section it and spend say $200 get a lower + parts kit + stock. Later another $200 would get you an upper and barrel. $200 more for furniture and upper parts. These things are pretty much tinker toys. As long as you buy quality parts they are all milspec so pretty easy to do.

@azmark-Yeah my preferred zombie gun is a 12ga. we get that thread going and I'll post a pic.

Jay

Zombies....

We're ready for them here at B&B headquarters

So that we don't get to far off topic...

Here's an older pic of mine guarding some lasagna baking on the egg.

Nice! You hardly ever see standard A2s anymore.

You're going to need more than that to keep me away from lasagna
