I have the VTACII on one of my ar's and its nice. Using the 13" version on a 16" gov profile barrel, not the lightest one out there but it feels nice and durable. I really like the modular handguards nowadays, just put rails where you need 'em.

The PA magnifier I believe is a great value for a third of the price of others. I have no affiliation with Primary Arms, and will say that their customer service is top notch. I also like that the newer version of the magnifier that they put out has long eye relief which works for me. I...

In my opinion, getting anyone with that high of a round count will be difficult. I wish I could run my M&P15T that hard, but at this time I do about 400 rounds or so a month. I don't reload yet, so a case of ammo runs about $300-400. To answer your questions: - hovering just over the 3,000...

Yes, 2012 15-T

FYI, Primary Arms has triggers on sale 10% off

Stebo, "Better shooter" or better anything in MY opinion is opinion/personal experience based. Back to the question will it (Aimpoint/Eotech) make you a better shooter. No, but in my case it did enhance accuracy and expanded certain abilities. I spent time with irons/MBUS and have no problem...

If possible I would attempt to try out both setups prior to making a decision. I was lucky and had that opportunity through friends of a friend and eventually settled on a Aimpoint PRO and Primary Arms 3XLER magnifier with a AD swing mount. Accuracy out to 100 yrds is decent enough for me, but...

My understanding is that you do not need to replace the buffer tuber or spring, but make sure you buy a stock that matches your buffer tube whether it be milspec or commercial. I want to say the M&P15's come with the milspec. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. My M&P15T has a...

Thanks for the clarification storyteller

I saw this chart before, where or who generated this? Is there data of some kind to support this chart? I use the same type of ammo and have an ejection pattern in the "overgassed" area. About 2-230 range, which I like @ the range BC I'm not throwing brass at the guy to my right. This chart...

Bumping this thread... Up in the 2K range since my last post, having only (2) failure to fire issues. I'm blaming ammo since I have not replicated the issue since.

I definately had carbon deposits on the small flat surface areas of the firing pin, but nothing more than I usually see.... The BCG and bolt had the same amount of carbon as usual with everything still oily prior to my cleaning. The first FTF was at about 100 rounds in and after about another...

This is definatley something that crossed my mind as far as a low round issue/pattern count. Thus my post :). I wanted to hear suggestions/recommendations to further my own knowledge on this type of issue so in the furture I can identify/diagnose it immediately. The ammo is AE XM193 55gr...

First, thanks for the replys. Misfire rounds are DO fire when reloaded. The FTF (failure to fire) happened on the second round so I believe it has nothing to do with riding the charging handle foward. I have left the internals/trigger group all stock and plan to leave it that way for a while...

I'm currently in the 2k range of ammo usage, clean up after every range session and lube internals generously. I'm shooting AE XM193 55gr and within the last 300 rounds I had (2) failure to fire issues and the ammo has light primer strikes. When I pulled the trigger there a click but no bang...
