I Built My Second AR-15 Completely Wrong

My 2nd rifle was a mistake. It was set up wrong from the beginning and that AR-15 wasted a lot of time and resources. 2 is 1 and 1 is none as they say.

  2. I’ve got a 16 nitride thin “right to bear “ .625 barrel carbine gas it’s been very good 21 oz I think bca sales one apparently 19 oz which from everything I’ve read is as light as they come at 16” I’m half asleep I may be wrong. I payed 84$ and it came with a blast diverter I sold on eBay for 24$ I shoulda kept it. Was dimpled. I like bca 60$ bolts cheapest possible their nitrided very slick they use the cheap screws but I’ve never had an issue I believe they’re very good and cheap enough to use as a consumable without stressing. Springs I run regular 3$ spring they last literally basically forever but with a cheapest possible h3 (3 tungsten weights) buffer this gives a super light slow chugging cycle rate. Trigger is cheap mil spec I’m even ok with a mim trigger but I spot weld on the hammer and stage it up for a super short single breaking no drag single stage. It works perfectly with a ss. U don’t need expensive junk u just need certain features.

  6. OMG you're a DA!!! Your methodology is ALL WRONG!!! You don't need 2 of the same rifles set up the same way especially red dots!!! You do realize that you have wide open fields around you… right???

    Red dots aren't going to cut it during the daytime at longer distances! You need a rifle with high magnification to see what you are shooting at!!!

    You need 2 different set-ups and your rifle set-ups aren't it!!!

    Rifle 1 should be set-up with a 11.5 inch Criterion Core barrel with a Surefire RC4 with either a EOTECH or a Aimpoint red dot and a laser and light for night time shooting and close in shooting.

    Rifle 2 should be a 20 inch Criterion HBAR barrel with a Nightforce NX8 scope with a red dot on the top.

    Seeing how you live in the wide open flat country you REALLY NEED an AR10 in 6.5 Creedmoor so you can shoot long distance!!! A smart person is just going to sit back and snipe your DA off out of range of those AR15's with red dots. You might want to rethink your rifle set-ups because they REALLY SUCK!!! If you can't see a head at 300 to 400 yards with a red dot I'm guessing your not going to be able to shoot it either!!!

  7. So I have 3 does that mean I have 2?

    All my 3 are mid to upper-mid tier:
    1) 16” LWRCi M6IC DI
    2) 16” Geissele SD upper Noveske lower (Geissele LPK) I call it my Geiveske
    3) 14.5” Mitchell Defense SOIC DOC

  14. I feel very fortunate in the fact that I have set myself up in life in such a way that my personal midlife crisis has led to a dozen or more rifles/carbines in multiple configurations to cover every scenario.

    But I realize many of us do not have that option and I appreciate your videos.

    If I were starting out as a new AR-15 owner I would approach it the exact same way I did originally. A 16-inch mid-tier carbine with a prism, and if you can afford it, a red dot perched on top. I went with the Burris 5x and Fastfire dot at the time. Add a light and a sling and off you go!

  16. Granted i have several 16" ar's but when i built my first 13.9 (with quality parts) i knew it was my favorite overalll gun…i just seems to work in all my training…i don't think i will ever go back to a 16" ar…

  19. I did the same thing, but with SKSs. 1) folding stock, 30 rd detachable mag with a light. 2) standard wood stock with a rubber butt pad (as a spacer) and a scope, kept the 10 round mag. I sold them both and got a Colt AR-15.
