I’ve got a rifle ive pieced together using what i thought were the best components at the time but then i found this site and fount out about Noveske, BCM, LMT, Colt… i was wondering if i should keep it or sell it to fund another build, thus far the gun has run really well with no malfunctions over about 2k rds shooting Federal value pack, UMC, PMC Bronze and M193.
Here are the Specs:
-Spikes Tactical Upper
-1/7 Chrome lined 16in barrel
-Surefire MB556K
-BCM F/A BCG w Crane O Ring black extractor spring insert.
-MI Front BUIS, MI SPLP Rear BUIS
-American Defense Eotech Mount, Eotech 512
-Larue Gas Block
-Larue 11.0
-Surefire G2 in VLTOR Offset mount
I bought the upper/lower before i really knew anything about AR’s and im jumping back and fourth as to weather or not i should hang on to this thing and slowly save for another rifle/build or sell the thing and buy a Colt, LMT, BCM, or mabey a Noveske.
is this rifle up to par with what a hard use rifle should be?
Pic of Rifle (yall have probably seen it in the pic threads)
Personally I’d keep it. I don’t seen any crap in there. I would probably put an Aimpoint on it and I am not familiar with the trigger so cannot comment with regards the trigger.
I’ve learned a lot since I’ve been on M4C myself but do not see anything that would cause me to not want to make more than tweaks.
thanks for the reply EGUNS! i’ve been craving an Aimpoint M4S in a larue or American Defense mount but at almost eight hundred bucks, im gonna have to save for a little while. and i also would really love to add a suppressor to the rifle.
thanks yall. i think i may upgrade the BUIS to a set of troys but that will probably be all besides mabey putting an Aimpoint M4 on there.
i think ill just start savin up for my next build! no such thing as too many rifles!
btw, eguns, the JP springs have been great, they really improved the trigger pull on my stock trigger that i polished. The trigger pull is actually pretty nice now. Ignition has been 100% with everything from UMC to M193 to 5.56 TAP. JP advertises this spring set as giving 100% ignition with all ammo.
Looks like a POS to me! Should I send you my FFL so you can get rid of that atrocity?
Are you kidding me, most people would love to have a rifle like that! If it functions and it’s reliable keep it in the quiver. Good job
Buying a factory LMT, Colt, BCM, etc doesn’t automatically give you a better gun. If you build using quality parts, a factory gun has nothing over what you can put together yourself----just because Joe at LMT puts it together for $12 an hour in a factory doesn’t make it better. Looks like you used quality stuff, so selling it wouldn’t yield anything for you. If you want another gun, start saving for gun two and shoot the shit out of what you have.
Well you have a good quality BCG which is probably one of the more critical components. Since everything seems to be working for you I say run it. If you start having issues take a look at it then.
