Can't decide, help me out

[iCARRY 0]

There is no purpose for this rifle other then having another rifle. I already have a carbine so I figured I would go with a mid length system to have something a little different. Weight means nothing. Not going to be carrying it around. I am not a marksman, just like to shoot but wouldn't mind it being really accurate. Some will need some compliance work. I have a spikes lower that I am going to match it up to and have not decided on optics yet.

I have the Lightweight/MOE setup. Haven't had it too long so i can't say much, but it works great for me. i also have it mated with a spikes lower. Your welcome to check it out if you'd like

 

Edit: Also no compliance work needed aside from the bayo lug.

14.5" LW w/ dynacomp. no brainer.

BAR12 or MOE?

[FishNJ 2]

Bar is sold out. But that is up to you. I put the SAR on mine. Nice rail.

 

I prefer a FSB.

oh no, its not my thread. i have the MOE set up. i was asking because i wasn't sure which you were talking about.

Thinking the lightweight with dynacomp and moe furniture is the way I an going to go. Going to check out BCMs website and see what they are offering.

 

What buffer are you guys running in your mid length systems?

With the LW/MOE spikes upper I am running the stag mil-spec buffer kit.

If you're not hung up on spikes, this is one of the best uppers I've ever had regardless of price.

They make it with a 1:12 rate as well, so it depends on the ammo you'll use most.

 

White Oak makes great stuff.

One one gun I run a rifle setup, on another a milspec carbine one. Both work, rifle is smoother.

They may make nice stuff, but he was looking at light weight carbines, not heavy barreled varminters.

When I read it it he said he had a carbine and was looking for a mid length system, no purpose for gun and weight didn't matter. If that's wrong then I definitely made the wrong suggestion.

No, I mean suggest away, I was just pointing out that the staff he listed was on the light and short side.

I got the 14.5 LW w/dynacomp - BAR 12 and I love it.

[iCARRY 0]

Sorry for any confusion, but I would like to stay with a M4 profile. 14.5-16 barrel, muzzle brake.

[TheLugNutZ 21]

Im running LW 14.7 mid-length with the spikes lightweight rail (cant remember what the model name is) with dynacomp.  PSA lower.  Fitment is great.  Running standard buffer right now no issues at all.

 

edit: i think it was the BAR12....

[iCARRY 0]

If the BAR12 comes instock in the next month or so, I will order that one otherwise I am going to go with the MOE version. Unless I find a good deal on a BCM or DD. Good to hear standard weight buffer is working in it. Thanks.

[TheLugNutZ 21]

Yeah I have a heavy one as well that came with the spikes upper, but i never swapped it out...

[iCARRY 0]

The new uppers don't come with the heavy buffers anymore so I figured the normal one works fine. Thanks.
