My new tack driver AR-15

I built this for long distance shooting. 1 in 9 twist 24" barrel, Timney 3lb trigger, and I polished it to look like chrome. It shoots the same hole at 100 yards.

Beautiful gun! Always wanted a long range AR with a Match Barrel but keep collecting SBR's. Got the bug and they are just too much fun... How far out have you checked accuracy past 100 yards? :ber

I am going this Friday to do 200 yards. It is my birthday so I took the day off from work.

Looks Cool. I've always wondered why more manufactors dont offer more color and coating options. Some do but not like they do for pistols etc.

After looking at the picture closely I noticed the blue color in the upper, that is a reflection from my wife’s blue car which is behind me in the picture

I have to ask, why don’t you like the option of different colors, shiny, camo, etc. I just had to ask.

probably because I'm part owner in this company: www.hydroprintservices.com

I'm all for different finishes, I just like them bettrr when people pay ME to do them! [smilie=pdt_xtremez_13.gif]


That is awesome though. I've always wanted to polish & copper plate an entire AR.

I did a fixed carry handle this time. I am going to shoot it to make sure everything works fine (3 to 5 shoots) then I am going to sell it. The picture does not do it justice, the shine reflects everything on the work bench.
