Rainy day AR

[Captain Moroni]

I call this my "rainy day" rifle because I spent my rainy day money on it.
Specs
CMMG receivers I bought this one because its serial number is my birthday 10th of April 79'
Black hole weaponry BBL 18" 1/8
PWS brake
Bolt carrier group CMT auto from Bravo Company
BCM gunfighter charging handle
JP free float tube
JP adjustable gas block
Atlas bipod
Timney trigger whichsoon will be changed out for a geissele (damn you Chiller you should have told me not to touch yours)
Also I have a Magpul PRS and a Vortex 6.5-20 PST with the Vortex cantilever mount as well as a dust cover that will be here next week. The cheap mount and old Bushnell will work for now.

I will be heading to the range this afternoon for some load development using 69gr Barns Match Burners and 75gr Amax's with Reloader 15 and Varget

When I get caught up it will get some Cerakote.

Nice job. I have been looking at putting an AR together and have read a lot of good things about JP and would be interested to hear how it performs.

Looks good. Bet it will look really good with the magpul and new scope though. Is that a 15" handguard?

I shot it with some green tip junk to test function and I like the adjustable gas block. There is a very noticeable difference in recoil when you tune it to the load. The hand guard is comfortable too, for me its just the right diameter. They also look nice.

I cant wait for the scope to get here, I'm jonesing to try it at distance. Hopefully this rifle will help prolong the barrel life of my 6.5x47.

I also hope to get my wife to shoot with me more often using this rifle. She is fun to look at while she is laying prone

Looks very nice indeed! Need a range report at distance to see if it shoots as good as it looks!!!

Happy shooting!

We will need pictures to confirm that last remark.

Re: Rainy day AR

It might be a while for that request, this rifle shoots like complete shit. DO NOT BUY A BLACK HOLE WEAPONRY BARREL

As soon as I get it back I'll post some pics.

Re: Rainy day AR

Sorry to hear that. Give it a chance, work up some loads. It may take time. Look at it as a way to justify more range time.
