Not my rifle, but the numbers add up to $3,592. I could build 7 functional AR-15s for that |

DETAILS! NOW! PLEASE! @XeroSygnal Quote HistoryGibbz side charging upper, Adams Arms piston kit, Samson Evo 4ex handguard and grip panel(had to be modified to fit the upper and I added in Rivnuts to attach the panels), and an barrel I had on the old upper I converted to 10.5. Can't remember what brand. The muzzle brake is from Ebay...it was the closest to what I wanted it to look like. Lower is Aero with a Maxim PDW Brace and CAA grip that looked right. All the controls are either gold or TiN plated...had to kinda piece it all together with what was available. And the various emblems are from cast brass from Etsy or Forge World brass etchings that are held on with RTV or epoxy. The paint is Krylon. I want it to get worn when I shoot it. Also made a melee weapon to go with it. We we have a tradition of birthday piñatas in my group of friends and I always make the birthday person a piñata beatin' stick. Couldn't go halfass on mine when my time came around! It weigh 8.5lbs...   Attached File |

That would be a futuristic AR to someone in 1993, but an old, ourdated design in 2018. Imo. Define futuristic, though. Jetsons? Star Wars? Halo? 2018 special forces? 2028 special forces? Quote HistoryQuoted:

I love the bolter! My favorite was always the pipe gun AR build by one of the members of arfcom. I think it had a 2x4 for a stock and a screwdriver handle for a grip.

If you want Halo any of the Kel-Tec bullpup rifles are your best starting point. Add some 3-D printed parts to fill the buttstock area. There are round counters out there. |

Another https://www.ar15.com/forums/ar-15/AR_15_Ammo_Counter/118-716543/ Just googling it bring up a lot of stuff. I'm pretty sure I saw a magazine from the 90s showing one off even |

There can be. It's an 80% lower I finished, and a slick-side Aero upper. I had a Strike Industries enhanced LPK, but for a couple reasons I only used a few parts from it. The rest are CMMG. Except for a Tom's Tactical trigger/hammer. 6" Angstadt barrel, with a 7" YHM MLOK handguard and a KAW Valley Linear Comp. With Strike Industries MLOK covers. Also KAW Valley bolt, buffer, spring, and pistol tube. KAK Colt pattern mag adapter Thorsden buffer tube cover+saddle. IMI foregrip I modified to fit closer. Turns out that was kind of a mistake (see below). Vortex Venom in a Strike Industries exoskeleton, Magpul MBUS, and a Crimson Trace rail-mount green laser on an MLOK section. And a FAB Defense Podium Because it looks like that. So, it has two problems so far. The SI ambi safety selector is hard to make function. It's function is fine, but it's sticky/stiff. Not sure if it is the selector or the 80% lower. Will hopefully loosen up over time. Also, that IMI angled grip I modified. Makes it impossible to get the pistol apart unless I loosen it and slide it forward. Not a huge deal, just an extra step when cleaning. Poorly thought out on my part. Looks cool though. The Podium...man. It's possible I might have found the only legitimate use for one, with is on a super-short pistol like this. It actually...works, at least in testing. I don't think I would ever put on on a regular, full-size rifle though, for all of the reasons put forth in reviews. Nothing else looks like it though, so it had to go on. Those parts, and an obsessive amount of painter's tape, custom-made stencils, and Duracoat, and this is the result. Pure fun! ETA: this is the last Aero upper I am going to buy. The takedown pin hole was literally oblong, and required serious file work to make fit. Obviously I am not afraid of work, but, man. I own a bunch of AR's and I've never seen anything like that before. Maybe I got a fluke, but I'll stick with my regular brands and deal with the essentially useless (for me) forward assist. |
