Tactical Upgrade Kit for carbine length AR

Yea, all of us commandos, since thats about the same as mine except I would like a foregrip. The holier than thou anti-tacticool act is played out.

K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple, Stupid. Very good words to live by. They sell millions of dollars a year of junk shit for people to strap onto their "Home defense/Varmint/CQB/EOTFW/Plinking" guns. You want to buy it? Have at it. If budget were an issue, I'd keep the irons and get some binoculars. Even if I had more money that I could count, you still wouldn't see me loading my guns down with every accessory I can fit on a rail unless my activity necessitated it.

Free float guards are useful if you're shooting a 20"+ Target AR out past 500 yards. Inside that they are a waste of cash imho. Service rifles group excellent up to those ranges with standard clamp handguards. It's high end finite applications being perverted and trickling down to extort cash from novice users in my opinion. I've spent a hell of a lot of money and can speak from experience 95% of peoples' rifles already do everything they want, they just don't know how to properly shoot them. I'm willing to bet you I couldn't tell a difference at 500 yards with my 24" AR with or without a free float. The only real benefit I could even think of on an a carbine is MAYBE heat reduction because of less contact with the barrel, but even then that's really reaching for it.

This is why my AR is a plain vanilla 20" A2 style build. I shot the M16 version of this enough in the military to know the rifle is more accurate than I will ever be. I don't like to waste money on "toys" either. My firearms serve a purpose. If I want to blow money on toys I have bikes, R/C airplanes and a car for that.

I do spend money on ammo to practice, but I am not getting enough practice in either.

This thread is severely lacking in the word "neckbeard". So many perfect opportunities wasted.



I am disappointed DFWMustangs.
