Shooting 11.5" AR-15 at 200 yards

[HyP3rxMiTchXx0]

how much cheaper is the Mirco t1 compared to a comp ml3?

[benchmadebob]

why would drink a energy drink while or before shooting espescially long range rifle caffine speeds up your heart rate like a mofo

[SURVIVALISTNUTCASE]

What buffer and spring are you using? Is that a standard M16 Bolt Carrier Group from BCM? Have you had any problems with your BCM 11.5" ? Mine never did work, right out the box, simply junk. Bravo Company never answers there phone so nothing I can do about it.

[GunWebsites]

@SURVIVALISTNUTCASE

BCM is of the highest quality, if you can not get your upper to work, I highly doubt it is a issue with the upper..

[SURVIVALISTNUTCASE]

@GunWebsites - If rounds are not ejecting and are sometimes double feeding..that's pretty much problems of the upper half. The lower just hits the firing pin.

[nowthisis2stupid]

At 200 yards with a 11.5" barrel and heavy match, stretching that setup as far as ballistics are concerned arent you? What's that match doing through the 11.5" around 2700 fps at the muzzle? Whats that putting you at at 200 yards? Would it still stop a target reliably? From the graphs I'm seeing 68 grain ammo only fragments reliably at most out to around 80 yards through a 11.5''...

[benbangui]

i want...

[MKPSG12]

So just to clarify, thats a BCM 11.5" barrel? Lolz! Good video!

[Goontrader2]

Is that exceptional good shooting, or about standard for military personnel?

[Homehous]

bad ass dude

[GunWebsites]

@kingoftha505

you are proving your ignorance

we have dozens of them and KNOW what they do..

Oh, well I checked your channel, and now I realize you are an idiot.. whatever comic book, video game or cereal box you use for research is wrong, quit defending it

Your are not welcome here, get lost

[aroccop]

is that a magnifier behind the aimpoinr?

[GunWebsites]

@aroccop

yes

[nickanto]

How much weight did all that spray paint add?

[M4CARBINE556]

How much smoother would a 14.5" middy shoot than a 11.5" would? Would you rather have the shorter barrel, or smoother shooting gun?

[omglmao12345]

so, to buy a short barrel i need to register it? or is it only if i put it on my rifle?

[GTF425]

Nice build.

[kungfu618]

Just finished my 22 ar, any recommendations on a electronic scope, and I also want to get a 223 upper for my lower as well so if you have any recommendations, please tell me. Thanks

[kungfu618]

[marcuskim76]

whats the combination of sites on there?

[WastegateAction]

Nice rifle sir!

[shancock1969]

Hey is this at the Pima Co. Rifle Range? Looks Familiar.

[GunWebsites]

@shancock1969

Yup

[miltnxc123]

hey I wanted to get a new ar15 11.5 and people are selling them on ar15 is it illegal to buy it from them how does it work wil they send it to my home address and then I have to register with the ATF as a SBR let me know thanks

[GunWebsites]

@miltnxc123

no need to ask the same question on multiple videos..

[mcalvery]

How long did it take total to get your silencer?

[SecularTechnology]

A lot better than I can shoot.

[songmanslim]

nice SBR, i dont think i can legally own an SBR in my gay liberal state of california, do you know of any loopholes?

[seanxvw]

How long does it normally take for the ATF to approve an SBR? What would you say are the advantages of using an SBR vs 16" barrel?

Thank you

[GunWebsites]

@seanxvw

SBR is cooler and shorter, chicks dig them.. otherwise they aren't magic

It takes between 4-8 months or it can take longer in some cases

[seanxvw]

@GunWebsites lol. I notice that it is cool. I don't know anything about SBR other than what other people say. (Everyone is an expert on the internet, lol.) I think that the firearm would be louder. I also think that the range and accuracy would drop. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thank you

[isrit38372]

@seanxvw i submitted the form 1 for my sbr oct 22, got it in today and the date stamped was dec 20. so about 2 months but they can take longer.

[jkatz44]

Gunwebsites,

what ar would you recommed that is priced cheaply but is also high quality?

[GunWebsites]

@jkatz44

Stag, Rock River

[vinnyraf]

BCM, Surefire, Aimpoint... nice kit!

[gunsmith93]

very nice firearm you have there this may be a stupid question but whats the reason for the double sights?

[GunWebsites]

@gunsmith93

One has the "cross hairs" the other has the magnification.. it lets you remove the magnification and use the T1 to quickly acquire closer threats

[gunsmith93]

@GunWebsites oh very nice thats clever

[shanepify]

can any one buy a silencer or what ever u call it i would like to buy one for my ar 15 rock river arm 5.56 / 223. 18'' inc.

[HerpErik]

@shanepify Many states require permits (hard to get) for surpressors. That's not a surpressor, though.

[HerpErik]

@shanepify Many states require permits (hard to get) for surpressors. That's not a surpressor, though.

I take that back, listening to rest of video.

[FixedByDoc]

that is and always will be my favorite riffle.

[CARE2DOTCOM]

Not impressed. Average at best but great video, it was done right.

[AmericoRmoney]

if he got that grouping with an 11.5 inch imagine the 20 inch

[MrINVADER727]

HEY U DONT NEED TO REVEIW THE BUSHMASTER AR15 FOR ME ANY MORE I DECIDED TO GET ONE IT IS GREAT IM LOOKING TO MAKE AA VID OF IT SOON

[mhall10]

Nice gun, im trying to figure out if i should build or buy a AR-15

[shamrock84922]

shudnt drink monster while zeroing in...lol

[zhagray]

How is the reliability on the BCM uppers?

[Metzgermeist]

Beautiful paint job on that beast, what colors and type of paint did you guys use?

[GunWebsites]

@Metzgermeist

Krylon spray paint

[brian97038]

nice set up guys

[jasong19711]

I just love the way your weapon looks, how you have it painted and the design.

[1someguy582]

what type of mount are you using with the aimpoint mag?

[GunWebsites]

@1someguy582

It's a LaRue mount an an Aimpont (non-magnified) T1

[flyhighkev]

@GunWebsites How did you paint your aimpoint? what method?

[GunWebsites]

@flyhighkev

he just used spray paint from a typical can

[jones21290]

Nice rig. Good group.

[ChuckAllaway]

you were shooting 75 grainers! through that short barrel!!! what is the twist rate on that barrel? it whatever it was, I think it would have shot at least a good inch better with standard 55 grain bullet, im amazed at the group with 75 grain through that 11.5 inch barrel, WOW!

[AusJackal]

nice rig. love the paint job and suppressor.

[deck328]

The ATF loves you guys. It's probably safe for them to start budgeting your $200 checks each month.

[vash241987]

Ummm its a one time $200 fee for the tax stamp per item.

[deck328]

@vash241987 ..fully aware of how it works. I have an 10.5 " SBR. If you look at all their videos, there are very few 16"+ barrel on their weapons, often with suppressors also. I was just commenting on the amount of class 3 stamps they have accumulated and I doubt they're done.

[vash241987]

gotcha

[iluvmym4]

How much is an Aimpoint 3times magnifier? Sweet carbine! Did you guy's see Bushmasters ACR at the Shot Show?

[funforall808]

Aimpoint or eotech- $300 to 500

[mofykiller]

love it dude, are you maybe getting the new ACR?

[GunWebsites]

thanks, but I doubt it

[mofykiller]

y not?

[GunWebsites]

@ mofykiller

umm.. the $3000+ doesn't help

[Tracti0nAction]

Wrong twist for nato rounds+ the barrel isn't even chrome lined last I heard. They priced it high because of it's supposed military contract potential. So they want to screw the taxpayers and the buyers! Ridiculous!

[waffenmacht]

Lol at ACR, we've been waiting on that one for how many years? I think Magpul is gonna be on Mythbusters next week for that one!

[longrangetactical]

The reason why you have not seen a ACR for so many years is this. MAGPUL came up with the designe, but could not mass produce it. They had Bushmaster contract the job. Then Remington bought out Bushmaster, renamed the rifle the Remington ACR. They started production on it, and ran into a snag, They are being sewed by Robinson Armament for a designe copy. The copy is of the Bolt catch release that is built into the side of the mag well. I was on a wating list for 3 years. Now you know.

[RifleGlory]

pretty cool video.

[robin6512]

And in the background the airborne version of the sound of freedom.

Great vid.

[Juice56107]

Awesome video as always! keep up the good work brother, stay safe!

[shaokem]

Not bad etall! I just ordered an aimpoint T-1 from LaRue. Tax return I'll get the 3x!

[jezzerouse3]

nice vid, well explained & good shooting.

[militarysims]

What in gods name does does pre-ban and post ban mean? I see a 11.5 pre-ban barrel kit and a 20'' post ban barrel kit? It says nothing about needing a tax stamp or sending it to a class 3 dealer? Does that mean it's legal to own it?

[GunWebsites]

ban = the Assault Weapons Ban of 1994 through 2004

So it ended 5 years ago, and means nothing legally now

Back during it's effect, firearms had to be sold with a few cosmetic changes, those are called "Ban-style"

Firearms with 'normal' accessories might be called "pre-ban" or "no-ban" configuration

[militarysims]

So does that mean You need a tax stamp for the pre-ban 11.5? Dealers web sites should really have this information.

[GunWebsites]

pre ban and NFA have nothing to do with each other

11.5" has been regulated as an SBR since 1934 (NFA)

so.. pre-ban, during the ban, and now post-ban the short barrel has been a taxable, regulated firearm

[militarysims]

I See still learning about class 3 and NFA weapons. I have been drooling over Sound suppressor's and SBR's I see you can also own 40mm m203 under the NFA and tax stamp thats nuts my have to apply and pick up a m203.

[AR15channel]

In NY we still have it. I just buy preban colt rifles.

[tomprman]

i just want to say, that it is super illegal do that in Puerto Rico island, to get a 9mm you have to pay 3,000 dollar for the licence thanks to the politicians in the senate, they have heavy weapons, but there a lot of killing thanks to illegal arms

[GunWebsites]

I didn't know that, I guess I figured PR was under the same laws as the US

[Siyko]

I never understood how sights can be so accurate - any scope or iron sights are going to provide a straight line and the bullet's trajectory is parabolic. Can you recommend a good source to learn about the math behind this?

[ARX7ARBALESTZ7]

how many reticules and is it green/red dot or just red dot?

[GunWebsites]

one reticle

red

[speedfourfan]

eotech magnifier? what kind of sight is that infront of the magnifier a small reflex sight of some sort?

[GunWebsites]

Aimpoint T1

Aimpoint 3x Magnifier

[lugal317]

If you sight in first at 25 yards and move it out, won't you just have to re-adjust since the relief from the optics to where the bullet exits the barrel is about 2 inches?

If you are sighted in at 25, you'll be shooting about 2" high at 100 is my point.

[mecanTseeU]

nice i have the same larue pivot mount for my aimpoint 3x check out my vid im only good @ 100 yrds not 200 like your self nice nice nice......

[dp665]

given the relativly flat tragectory of the 5.56 what would be a good yardage to zero it in at.

[GunWebsites]

most people zero at 100 yards, but a few of our editors zero at 200

[Dman40475]

If you understand balistics and the drop of your bullet weight at certain yardage then you can sight in at 100 and click up/down for you needs at 200, 300 etc..... But 100 is pretty standard for most rifles

[heavensarmory]

great vid, nice color ....

5*****

[carveawoodeneye]

i'm running a 10.5 sbr haven't done any longer range stuff!!

love the digital distortion on that camera it makes this look even more bad ass!! very nice rifle ! helpful video!!

[GunWebsites]

thanks, we have better cameras now.. I can't wait to get back out to that range to see how they work

[mhanna91]

Im gonna guess that there is about $3000 in that rifle between the BCM parts, Aimpoint and surefire. Salty stuff.

[GunWebsites]

even more I the can is like $1400 alone

[CujoTheMadDawg310]

hooah very nice color

[yotedown09]

Wish they made a AR-15 chambered in 22-250

[ty3600]

dang nice color of the ar-15, really nice. haha that would be nice shootin one of those.. ; )

[GunWebsites]

can't you shoot ARs where you live?

[ty3600]

lol oh yeah I can, but the thing is aren't those guns like 1000 or more ? Cause I'm 16 and I love shooting guns and practicing n getting better at shooting. But I don't have a lot of money to spend at all at the moment..so it would be extremely hard for me at least to buy a Ar-15

[GunWebsites]

the reason I ask is because as long as they are legal where you live at least you are ahead of the game

Think about working at a range or gun shop.. that would get you around shooters

Once you know a few shooters you'll find many are willing to bring a second rifle to the range for a friend to shoot

I've shot plant of my friends firearms and they've shot mine..

At least you have the opportunity to try something like that.. some people live where they just don't even get the chance

[ty3600]

oh yea that's true and yea I do have the opportunity to do it and some others can't even shoot a gun because the fact that they can't cuz of area they live and it might be illegal to anyways yea that's true, that would be a good experience to learn more and maybe that could happen you never know.

[GunWebsites]

good luck.. till then we'll keep posting videos of the stuff we shoot..(if that helps)

[ty3600]

okay thanks man

[Tosterday]

i love the color on this AR

[GunWebsites]

thanks, we did a comparison on our websites (still images) of this paint job against a few different backgrounds and it does pretty well for the desert

[Tosterday]

yeah i thought so, thats typical look for desert actions. say man, what is the feeling when you shoot one of those?

[GunWebsites]

well there is a slight press against the shoulder from the recoil, is that what you mean?

.223 (5.56x45) does not recoil very much

[Tosterday]

HAHAHA! Alright, I see you are a real professional. I meant as well, how do you personally feel about? I my self loooove guns and ammo. There was this intimate connection in my mind from the first moment I saw firearms as a child. HOT! HOT! HOT! And when I see something like this I just go OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! hehe I hope I am not freaking you out or something. So, do you feel anything great and special about it? I certainly would. It is a great thing.

[GunWebsites]

oh I got ya..

well I grew up shooting, so the act of shooting is not all that exciting I guess, but I do try to keep my mind on each trigger pull

However when I got to shoot a Full auto glock, a full auto tommy gun, the first full auto AK47, full auto PKM...

Those I was pretty excited about

Belt fed stuff is the best

[Tosterday]

Yeah, keep your mind on each shot, feel it where it goes, for maximum accuracy. Great stuff man.

But you do so much work with firearms be cause you love them, right?

[GunWebsites]

Yup, interesting machines, they have a large role in history, and lots of reasons

[Tosterday]

Hey man you ever tried minigun? I saw some videos around here. it is such a beast.

[GunWebsites]

nope, don't get chances to shoot those too often

[Tosterday]

wow great stuff man love it.

[tripmatt1]

CAN you just fire with the suppressor on all the time?

[GunWebsites]

sure, the can would just get pretty hot depending on how much you shoot

[tripmatt1]

Would it ever ruin the suppressor if it was overheating?

[GunWebsites]

well this is a Surefire which can handle full auto fire, but anything can break if used too hard..

Most people I know either pay for their own cans, or have them issued to them, so no one is trying to stress them too much

[GunWebsites]

Cool video, thanks

We subscribed and favorited it

[GlockAnimal]

Just curious why you would use such a cheap paint job on such a fine Rifle ya have there?

[GunWebsites]

the paint is just to break up the rifles silhouette he wasn't interested in a custom paint job, so Krylon was all that was needed

[GlockAnimal]

I understand im just saying theres alot of flaking on that paint and really takes away from how beautiful that Rifle is. I mean such a fine rifle why not go with a decent paint job instead of a can job.

[tripmatt1]

Do you think the Navy Seals worry if they have a mark or paint flakes on the rifles when they are about to take out some badguys?

[GlockAnimal]

I know for a fact the United States Navy Seals Rifles Arnt that damn expensive or nice either!

[tripmatt1]

They can customize their weapons. They paint them for each mission and I'm sure they don't care if the paint doesn't look perfect.

[lo2676]

yea things like extra carbon build up, premature bolt unclocking/locking especially with a supressor! thats why on all of my ar's i always have them with a piston system from adams arms, and an mgi military rate reducing buffer and 2X recoil spring from them which complements the buffer!

[Cantabron1988]

Sorry, i might have misspoken (english isn't my first languange) : I meant that I have a book (Green Eyes Black Rifles) that says that m4s shorter than 14.5'' are not very reliable. I just wanted to know what his user experience was.

[jimmyboy3664]

is the whole thing (without the can) longer than 26 inches?

[Speed00007]

Thats a sweeeeeeet looking rifle. Is that a custom finish?

[GunWebsites]

Just a simple Krylon (spraypaint) paint job

[NDNfeatherNOTdot]

nice system, I'd love to get my hands on some optics like that.

[CMLovejoy]

11.5" barrel is going to just as accurate as a 20" barrel.

You just loose a lot of muzzle velocity.....even I know that!!!!
