Thanks for the info. I was looking into a lwrc but they are really expensive. A few hundred more than the pof's. I'm still considering which to go with right now. I'm willing to spend a decent amount of money for a good quality gun that will last me for a while but i'm not sure if I want drop that kind of money. I do like the pof's but again the lwrc is really good to.
What is the deal with the rail system that pof and lwrc uses. I see some mid and full lengths. What are the big differences between the 2? Is the longer one, your able to put more things on the rail? I have a friend that has a ar and he bought a cheap rail system and it was ugly because it was really big (fat). The rail system on the pof's and lwrc, do you know if they are slim? Just to let you know the bushmaster is illegal in cali lol. I don't know why but that's what they tell me. What brands do you like for lower rec? i was looking into getting a spikes tactical and kaiser defence spikes tactical lower receiver Here's a pic of a 14.5" pof upper POF upper rec. More pof upper rec Other POF upper rec Do you prefer a 16" or a 14.5"?[QUOTE=wstar;99332]tv:

Going shorter than 16" barrel length involves a bunch of legal hassle with filing NFA tax papers with the Feds, as it's considered a Short Barreled Rifle, which is federally regulated. You may not even be able to own such things in California, I donno. Quote:

I donno, I've never read up much on people's experiences with 1:8. I would assume it's fine for at least 69gr ammo, and probably 75gr. Not so sure about the super-heavies like 78's and 80's though. 1:7 is kinda the official standard for short barrels and heavy bullets though, and it's what you get on real M4's. Slower twists are compromises to be sure you don't spin-fragment light bullets, but 55gr ammo works fine in 1:7, and there's really no use for shooting anything lighter than that unless you're actually doing the varmint-hunting thing (as in, using an AR to kill groundhogs and the like).

I ended up getting the POF. I think the lwrci is a good brand. But they are way over priced. Personal opinion. I think one of the reason they are more expensive is because they have a good reputation for customer service and they been on a few magazine reviews and couple of tv shows that talked about the lwrci brand. I think because of the TV reviews and magazine reviews they drove their prices up.
POF does have good quality makes and finishes on their products. I think the barrel on the POF is a little better in quality compared to the lwrci or other brands in general. But POF has some really bad customer service issues. At least that's what i've read about.

It was built. It's not mine. I prefer not to own a gun, just know how to use 'em. I'm moving to the beach in a couple weeks, so I may buy a 1911. But aside from that, there's no need to have an assault rifle. A good hand gun is all you really need for house-hold protection. MAYBE a shotgun.

For those of you who don't know, it is legal to own machine guns in most states but not all.
I have three I am trying to sell. Last edited by Trips; 05-15-2014 at 11:05 AM. |
