Amazing Oem AR 15 parts

Black Rifle Depot AR 15 accessories with blackrifledepot.com? The history and development of the AR 15 has many interesting twists and turns that finally led it to its popularity that it has today. It had a few bad starts in the very beginning, yet over half a century later the same design and concept is still being used in active military service and enjoyed by the civilian market alike. Very few firearm designs enjoy this kind of popularity and longevity, so what makes the AR15 so special? Where did this infamous gun get its start? Let’s talk about that! The AR 15 gets its name from the Armalite Rifle Model 15. Contrary to popular belief as well as by misinformed gun control advocates, “AR” does not stand for “assault rifle.” It actually stands for “Armilite Rifle.”

A mounting system will allow you to install a wide variety of accessories to your AR 15, such as slings, sights, lasers, lights, bipods, forward grips, and whatever else you may want on your firearm. In today’s market, there are three main types of mounting systems: Picatinny, keymod, and M-LOK. For many years, the picatinny rail system has been the standard and preferred system used by both military and law enforcement. This system uses dovetail angles and grooves to allow you to mount anything you want so long as it is compatible. These system can also be used for the quad rail, or “quad” when there are four rails on each side of the rifle: top, bottom, left and right. The downside to using the picatinny system, and why it is slowly losing popularity year after year, is how heavy it is. Because the other two systems use machine cut-outs for attaching accessories, they are much lighter.

Cut rifled barrels have long been considered the standard for the AR 15. It is by far the most popular and still to this day one of the most cost-effective ways to create barrels. A cut rifled barrel is created just like the name says: a barrel blank is inserted into a rifling machine, which resembles a large lathe. The machine then pushes a single cutter attached to a long rod through the rough rifle bore, carving out each groove of the rifling. This entire process can be very time consuming, but given the right technique and equipment, produces the most accurate AR 15 barrels that you can find. Discover additional details on ar 15 parts.

10.5” 5.56 NATO Pistol Upper Assembly: If you’re still liking the idea of an AR pistol build but don’t like the idea of a super short 7.5” barrel, an obvious solution is the 10.5” 5.56 NATO Pistol Upper Assembly. This is a length where, ballistically, with the right ammo, it could make for a very mean little defensive AR pistol. You’re only adding 3” to the gun, but that length addition, in our opinion, bumps it out of ‘range toy’ category and into an area where you could seriously consider this as a trunk or behind-the-nightstand pistol, depending on your needs. Our 10.5” 5.56 NATO Pistol Upper Assembly has the same features as the 7.5″ 5.56 NATO Pistol Upper Assembly, and paired with one of our bolts, you have a very handy, reliable and practical AR 15 pistol. One caveat: Even at 10.5”, these upper assemblies are still loud. As long as you know what to expect going in…carry on.

For most handguards, the two most commonly used materials are polymer and aluminum. Both of these materials are very durable, and aluminum will usually going to be the stronger of the two. Aluminum can, however, emit a little more heat during an extended shooting session than a polymer handguard. Aluminum is much more resistant to heat, although it will heat up itself and can be hot under extreme conditions. If you do a lot of high volume shooting, aluminum is a great option for you. Polymer handguards will usually have a heat shield constructed of either steel or aluminum that will separate the actual polymer from the barrel. This helps dissipate the heat generated from the barrel, and there are also polymer handguards that will have a steel or aluminum framework to lighten them up and provide structural durability. Polymer does, however, have a lower melting point than aluminum. While it is super rare, under continuous and extreme firing, the heat from your barrel could warp or even melt the polymer handguard. Polymer does, however, provide a little more impact resistance than aluminum.
