Good video/presentation. You need to clean a 1911 more than most modern pistols. Especially when they are new and "tight". After they are broken in and the tolerances have opened up a bit, they will run dirty with fewer, if any, issues. I have the Tisas 1911 Carry and I'm still in the first 500 rounds, but it is doing very well.

20 years in the army and IMO, the acog was the best thing ever issued to me. Indestructible and a game changer. Highly recommend.

Absolute tank of an optic 🔥

What barrel and length?

love the acog but way to much

The best way, in my opinion for most is buy an upper and either build a lower via Aero Precision with what you want or buy a complete lower via Aero Precision. Then you upgrade as you go. I love buying BCM uppers, and I buy complete lowers. Then I upgrade parts as I go. Occasionally, I have bought a few AR15s. DD M4A1 RISIII, Noveske Recon Gen4, KAC SR-15 LPR MOD2, SOLGW M489, DD MK18 RIII pistol, DD MK18 pistol, BCM EAG, and BCM MK12 MOD0-A5. My first 2 rifles were complete AR15s, and both were sold years ago BCM MID16 and BCM RECCE-16 KMR-A Bronze. I do have 2 rifles that are just for decoration, and it's what you have in this video. The FN Collectors M4 and M16 that are AR15s I have few other Rifles for decorative purposes. Fulton Armory M1 Garand, Springfield Armory Model 1861 from 1863, Enfield 1853 Pattern from 1863, Jacob Dickertt 1771 Long Rifle.

Can the acog be mounted on an a2 carry handle and still be able to use the irons? Been thinking about building a modern m16a2 with that setup

What makes you want the 5 inch over the carry?

First: they suck. There are many more modern optics that are huge improvements over the aged ACOG.

But the first one. Build the rest with bliss. After you build your first you will never buy a complete rifle ever again.

Both. Start off buying, take it apart, modifying slowly over time as you become familiar with it. Then with enough experience and familiarity build the rifle you need and want.

personally, I would recommend buying a completed upper (BCM, PSA, etc) and then building your own lower.

Damn dude, freakin' great production quality on this vid! Also thanks for the input. It can seem like a toss up sometimes on which way to go.

i can build an ar15 that shooters better then a 5k dollar ar15 for 180 dollars its not hard to figure it out

I bought my first one, sold it for another then slowly turned that one into something else to fit my needs, and have built every other one since then.

To be honest, if you’re on a budget you’re only saving $50 to 100 building your own AR-15 over buying PSA (not even factoring in tools). However, if you got a budget of about $1000 then you can really start saving money assembling your own rifle by investing in a quality barrel, rifle speed adjustable gas block, thermal fit upper, quality BCG.

I bought my Colt AR15A4 with no plan to upgrade ($1100). Later randomly found the Non-KAC contract M5 rail (Prudent American aka P&S) for a little over a hundred bucks new from Primary Arms, so that definitely was an impulse buy. My brother ordered a Trijicon TA-02 ACOG for his Radian and was impatient so he ordered from another place because the other shop didn't reply for for over a week until the product actually shipped. He ended up with two, so I just bought one off him for half price. Only rifle I built would be my Geissele URG-I "near clone". I got the Geissele lower, trigger, and parts kit for it (don't care for "clone" correct) cause I wanted it to be a complete Geissele rifle although I have a new BCM complete lower just hanging around that I could've used. The URG-i came with the buffer and spring and I had a spare SSA-E trigger laying around, so I just decided to build out a lower and save the BCM lower for whenever BCM has a 9" 300 BLK upper in stock. The URG-i is my favorite gun. Just got a tan Eotech for it as well. You should build one. It's awesome and it will make forget about your DD M4. The guys at 9-hole reviews are in love with it cause it shoots like an SPR.

In my opinion which is just my thoughts and ramblings but starting off someone should buy starting off and as someone upgrades small parts here and there and amass a parts bin then they should build. I build because I want specific pieces and I enjoy the fun of finding sales. But it is lengthy, some builds took 3 years.

Throw a strip of electrical tape over the fiber with a little folded tab on the end closer to you. Adjustable brightness activated

Support hand slide drop is the “correct” way.

I always but my upper and then build a lower out with the parts i want being that the lower is where all the user interface happens. Always the A5 buffer system and only high quality uppers ie BCM, Colt and Geiselle

After building quite a few, I think you go down a rabbit hole when building and you just keep trying to min/max parts instead of actually shooting your rifle. For a first rifle I’d say build the lower and buy a complete 16 inch lightish weight midlength barrel with a free float handguard upper.

sick reflection on your glasses

Crazy high quality channel, keep up the good work dude

Can you install a QLS fork on this? Looks like it but I’m unsure.

I buy the upper half... half the time, really dictated by the purpose, but the rest is built.

Much appreciated

$395 for a lower?! Fair enough it’s a very impressive build. When I built my A1 replica, I admit I wasn’t so selective, so an Anderson $60 lower was enough for me

Always build, it’s fun and cheaper

I say build and here is why. If you build, you can spread the cost of the rifle over time. You also have the flexibility to go budget where you can so you can go premium where it does the most good. Here is an example. An Anderson receiver set (budget teer) with a Krieger Barrel (arguably the best) will shoot way better than a BCM receiver set( premium teer) with a Bear Creek Arsenal (ultra budget) barrel. (I'm not hate'n on BCA, but there barrels are a long way from a Krieger)

Man this is such a difficult dilemma. I went the route of building since I had a small 1200 budget when I started my build. Overtime I changed a lot out into the rifle I truly wanted as I learned more and more/ ATF got all dumb with pistols. My 11.5” build evolved into a 6k plus build over 7 years and this is including optics. If I had 2500 I would have bought an LMT MARS L and I would have gotten the rifle of my now dreams along with a manufacturer warranty. It would have been the correct way to go. But given it was 2017 and the world was nuts and I wanted a means of protection I did what I could to have what I wanted at the time. Buy once cry once is a real thing and I wouldn’t have made dumb mistakes on things like BCM MCMR rails (quadrail is king for heat mitigation trust me), I would have saved a lot of time and money.

As a beginner, buying is more appealing at the moment but eventually I would love to build and customize my own!

I ALWAYS build my ar-15s, not only because of the initial sticker shock of buying a complete rifle but there's always at least a couple things on them that i'm going to change out anyway. Plus, like a PC, building it is wayyy more fun😊😊😊

Used to have one on my service rifle. Loved it.

Primary arms 1× prism.(green)

Ehhh that's you talking about an ACOG while showing a comp-M4 site. That's NOT how an ACOG reticle looks like that's the comps reticle

Eotech on short guns always for me!

I prefer a URGI as I own one but these block 2 builds are also awesome rifles

Great job!!!

Great video! I subscribed after watching your video. I really appreciate your no nonsense, no silliness, down-to-earth assessment/observations. So many RUclips channels contain utter ridiculousness, have alternate agendas, and/or are used for entertainment. Not that those are bad, but I’d rather watch videos like yours in which viewers can receive info and are able to draw their own conclusions.

Is this non-parallax? I would like to get a non parallax red dot for my next urgi (non clone) type build.

Constantly staying on is probably their worst feature.. I want shake awake if I'm paying that much money.. After I get these things on zero, I never wanna have to worry about that being an issue ever again unless I move them to a different gun.. I don't wanna have to take them off to change a battery.. An Eotech with shake awake but with Aimpoint's durability is what I want.. Oh that's right, it's called a Holosun 🤷🏻‍♂️😂😂😂

Good stuff, love the A4 clone! That was my first build Just grouped a bunch of 69/75/77gr 223/556 rounds from about 10 companies. Both AAC types you use here did some of the best! The match-grade Sierra matchkings performed slightly better than the AAC 77 OTM. Both were about 1.5-2MOA for me that day. 50yrds, 10rd groups, next is velocity measurements.

Fsb with fsb cutout rail and unity fast micro is the way.

KRAM RISER + AMERICAN DEFENSE MFG MOUNT will help out significantly for the eye relief on the ACOG

I rather step on a rusty nail than to run steel through my forearm.

That’s a really nice scope!

What you said applies to all prism sights

Why is it worth the cost over a $80 sig romeo? how can red dots be so different in price? genuine question
