My New 7.62x39 AR

-Laser etched T-Marked upper receiver

Looks good Frank

 

[FrankT]

It should do the job! Thanks

 

[Ratdog68]

Nice, x39 is a fun shooting round.

 

[FrankT]

Thanks RD, As cheap or cheaper to shoot than a 556 with alot more power, just need to get an *** super bolt but have a cheap one to use till them. May retire the 556.

Very nice toy you got there. Can't wait for a range report

 

[TEXASLAWMAN]

You can send it to me if you dont like it!

 

[FrankT]

8lbs w the optics, mount and unloaded mag. Got to see how she runs then I will use it as back-up and a guest gun then maybe put a digital night vision on it.

 

[TEXASLAWMAN]

Meh 8 pounds my magazines weigh that much up hill in the snow!

 

[Wassman]

Nice bang stick. In the process of building a x39 for a customer, but he ran out of money so it is on hold.

 

[FrankT]

I need an enhanced bolt, any suggestions? Am waiting on *** in Oct for now.

This is the upper I got for 1/2 price by bidding on Gun Broker, really saved some money.

 

[Wassman]

This guy did a pretty good vid explaining what to look out for on a x39 AR.

 

[FrankT]

Feed ramps OK Mags are the newly designed CPD and I use the 10's for hunting. Carbine gas and enhanced springs. The S& B ammo I got is brass and the Hornady is steel but US primers. Have the wolf and Tula too. We shall see on the range..Thanks for the video.

Loved mine. It's a pig killer

 

[TXCOONDOG]

Looking good. How does she group ?

 

[theblakester]

Nice. Looking forward to a range report

 

[FrankT]

Well I got a new Spikes lower today w heavy springs and an ALS trigger, put a MOE buttstock on and an Ergo grip, I am finished till I get to the range

 

[Itsazonik]

Water is a good bullet stop. Just shoot it into the pool to test function. Lol

 

[FrankT]

I would if I had a suppressor, the other end though could not go 6' with power in the water

 

[Itsazonik]

You don't need a suppressor, it's legal to shoot on your own property in Florida
