Why is your flashlight more than your barrel. Rosco barrels are cheap. $4250 for an ar is stupid. But cops are dumb. I can tell you have no military experience
This comment has got to be one of the most mind numbing things I've read. 1st. Can't shoot what you can't see. This isn't a precision rifle I have rifles with Douglas, Kreiger, and WOA barrels. Hell this isn't even my most expensive rifle light. 2nd. I'm a retired Army grunt
@AncientGloom I'm glad someone Caught that lol. I heard it in editing and thought of correcting it but figured I would see how many people caught it. so far 18
I *always* hit the thumbs up on Uncle Freedom's videos! Not just to show Unc my support and appreciation ..but also as an act of defiance! An attempt to over throw our reptilian over lords and defeat skynets algorithmic robots✊🏻💀
I just made my first video going over the breakdown of my 11.5 build and now I’m seeing more break down videos haha. Hell yeah this is a kick ass build! 🤘🏻
As usual, excellent video! I appreciate the look behind the scenes of your build! When I was a LEO, my weapons as well as my life and those I protected were worth every penny on upgrades if it helped me be better and faster! Again, thanks for all you do both professionally and on these videos! Prayers and safe Holidays!!!🙏👍🏼🇺🇸
I ordered one of those green blem rails and it didn't show up.. Come to find out my card company denied the purchase. By the time I realized what was going on they stopped the sale..I was bummed..
A great looking patrol and SHTF rifle, in general. I buy nice items Blem, on sale, etc. A lot of nice items, put together on that AR, making me think if it works as well as it looks? Nice! Also, a Bad a$$ sling, by your buddy, too! Keep up the great work and videos...
I’ve shot a lot of the AAC 77gr OTM and it’s not as consistently accurate as BH MK262. However, at the price it’s definitely accurate enough for me to buy a crapload of it.
Wow! I've bought plenty of "blemmed" items (and saved a bunch of money doing it), but this is the first actual blemish I've seen... 😏 Nice job on a nice rifle, UF!
Sick build!!! I just built a DMR setup with the same handguard in black and a Rosco 16" K9 Barrel & Hatchet Edition ( I got the last one in stock 🤫). Side note... can you do a dedicated video on the Vortex UH-1 with the magnifier when you get it? Thanks again! Love the vids!! One of my favorite channels!!
Actually just did something like this. Got the 13.5” geisselee handguard off cheaper than dirt Black Friday for $149 on an ambi set of new frontier receivers on sale for $139 regular $375. BLEM bcm bcg for $129, g2c trigger on sale for $79 battle arms ambi safety and lightweight takedown/pivot pins, a5 buffer tube with the geisselee spring and buffer, kungfu grip, 14.5” fn cold hammer forged barrel mid-length on sale for $139 at aim surplus, acog ta31 up top with a holosun 507 at the 12 o’clock and a wit machine big body tutu3 suppressor (still waiting) S.A. adjustable gasblock and tube. And a cheap strike industries latchless ambi charging handle. Just my personal favorite just like the mft minimalist stock. I still need to get a light, and sling
Complete rifle without optics/light/sling/or can was $1003 before tax/shipping. Add in another $999 for the ta31, $250 for the holosun, $212 for the can +$200 for Uncle Sam , and whatever I end up paying for a light and sling
❤❤❤❤Guess I’ll just have to be happy with 2 super duty’s 1st version. Red dot holosun that has the bdc dots n 3x on 11.5 and 2.5 to 10 X n 45 degree red dot. Holosun 507c on the 16 in. but will top mount a T2 like holosun copy on the top. ?????????? I need suggestions on what scope ring/top bracket would work with the primary arms mount that came with the 2.5 - 10 X. To top mount a t2 type mount format. It’s a Glx 2.5-10. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I picked up a few rail scale anchors from a Japanese airsoft company for ~$20, slammed them on barriers and surfaces and they’ve held up I love the thing I just did not want to pay the price tag so I went down the Reddit hole to find a decent knock off!
@unclefreedom213 people use to say get a better grip , grip the bat harder. Now people say get a better purchase or i can get a better purchase. I'm not being a smart butt , just curious when we changed . You've got a really good channel.
Lol ...ohhh brilliant an ar carbine . So unique and unlike the other 7 million others out there on clown world.. Shall I go over my breakfast this morning ..?? After all it's " my breakfast" 😅
Interesting setup which I have a question. I have a short build, that i'm trying to do, is the Exps3 worth it or go with UH-1 ? I would like to see more how that magnifier works with it. I wouldn't be surprised that you went with a smaller magnifier. Because I had a 5x maganifer with a XPS2 and it looked weird
So something to keep in mind with Holographic sights becasue they are laser they will appear "fuzzy" under magnification. Both are great options and the center aiming point is ultra fine under a magnifier.
So you mention wanting something not picky about ammo. Did you go with .223 Wylde? Just curious because I built one specifically to see if it does just that - allows a wider range of ammo to shoot well. Haven't shot it enough to see if it makes a difference yet.
I went 5.56, 5.56 chambering can shoot everything as well, just like 223 wylde. The wylde chamber can allow for better accuracy, but functionally, they operate the same for ammo functionality allowing for the higher pressures of 5.56 with its extended throat dimensions. Either one is solid but depending on how good the barrel is you can see better accuracy out of the wylde but not always
@@unclefreedom213 I know about rating for 5.56 vs .223 (and all the fun discussions on that). I didn't think there was enough of a difference to warrant a design variation, but after reading about it I figured I'd give one a go just our of curiosity. Was just curious on your thoughts; Not really much different than mine...
you do you but every rifle I've ever seen that was built in the cubism camo. Belongs to someone that shoots and isn't chained to the looks department. Though I dig the look personally
So far, great. I know there are reports of parasitic battery drain in vortex but in all optics at some point. From the crossfire to the defender ccw and the UH1. It's not normal, if you see the issue contact vortex
Only way to build your "this is the rifle because I can't realistically carry 4 different ones and calibers." Blem's are awsome especially if you're going to paint it anyway. (Hint hint)
Thus far my experience with the AAC ammo, I'm not sure there's any better ammo for the price. Plenty cheaper that's not nearly as good and plenty better that's not nearly as cheap....I got a gob of it at 55pr
I just got my first BCM rifle. I have a spare strike eagle 1-6, but I’m not liking the eye relief on it at all. I’m agonizing over what optic to use, and what will be worthy of my first mid to upper tier rifle. That vortex looks HUGE. I wonder what’s the best value red dot maybe. I want lighting fast acquisition, and total dependability. Im not sure I need magnification on this one, this is going to be for home defense and urban combat shtf. I want it light and fast. I got the BCM lightweight cold hammer forge in a 16 “. I need to do this right!
@unclefreedom213 Do it . I’d like to hear what you got to say given that statement and given your status as law enforcement. It seems we have an arm tied behind our back with the laws with aircraft.. these drones supposedly have the same designation as a passenger plane when it comes to firing on them.. I mean.. I guess we have to wait til it is coming in hot at us or makes aggressive maneuvers towards us which could be too little to late from what I’ve seen from the eastern front.. it certainly deserves some discussion and war gaming.
Hahahahaha that's awesome!! I harp on that a lot people get wound up about making rhier rifle appeal to everyone instead of focusing on the fact that they are the only person that matters.
May I ask why a 16" barrel for a (part time anyway) CQB rifle? Also, you never mentioned weight, at least I didn't hear you disclose that. It's a friggen awesome looking rifle man. That color combo just screams "take me to the range" LOL This build is way way way outta my league price wise, but I totally get why you did everything. You explained it really well. There's logic and good thought behind every bit and piece of this build. That rail is insanely good looking and so functional. Cheers and be safe out there Uncle
I love the build, and the non matching colors. That optic though, smh. Probably my favorite design, fastest retical for close in to 100yrds but I have to say that the battery life on my gen 2 is absolutely garbage. It’s atrocious and in my opinion it’s unsafe and unacceptable. When I turn mine off and put it in my safe, I’ll take it out a few days later and it’s completely dead.
Sounds like you have parasitic drain. This optic has been on the gun since October 12th so drain to speak of. I know some of the earlier ones and same with a few of thier dots have some parasitic drain issues and I've even see it happen on a few 1st gen CCW Defenders and the initial run of 2nd gen defenders. It's an abnormality I would contact Vortex if that were happening to mine.
FYI, gave up on trying to get an RCR or RMR HD, and went with a lead and steel pb3 for my walther. seems good to go and holding zewro after having beat it against concrete wood and some steel to rack it.
Great looking build. Love the Huey as well. Got one that lives in my 10" 300blk for night time piggies out here in rural Texas. So, to compliment what you said about building to your needs: I run a security company and in that, when we have a job that requires a rifle, it's typically sentry detail. Engagement would be less than 100 yards, and most probably less than 50 yards in well lit areas. Therfore, on my duty build, i forgo a LAM and run a Modlite WL only. It's a 14.5 P/W pencil profile on BCM receivers and a CMT rail. It does have a FCD xeno flash hider pinned on to accept my suppressor and has an Aimpoint T2 living on it with an Eotech 3x magnifier on a unity mount that stays stowed off rifle keeping my rifle itself as light as utterly possible without going all crazy with specialized parts and relief cuts that some super lightweight build are built with. It's a pretty basic bare-bones lightweight build that suits my needs for the kind of duty that I experience. Build to your purpose.
Very nice build, jealous of that foregrip. I got the Samson frag short grip in FDE. I was looking at the Geis rails, but BCM new Raider rail is thermofitted with crossbolts. We're spoiled with amazing choices in 2024. 🇺🇸👍🏽
@@unclefreedom213 I think you'll like the Raider handguard. BCM new extrusion process really shows they're innovating. Wish it had steel QD inserts, but I just use Blue Force Gear Uloop sling attachment and qd on my end plate. 🇺🇸👍🏽
I like 16inch guns personally or then down to 11.5 or 12.5. 14.5 doesn't really solve the problem for me I understand that I'm giving up minimal velocity but I am giving it up and to me with my size and how I run the gun a 16 is just my preference.
Well done using Forward Controls Design parts. Haven't seen many people use their products in videos but I've had good luck with them. Edit: ha look at that, I also used a Rosco barrel on my last build. 16" heavy with carbine length gas system. Shoots lights out.
Or maybe he watches sales like a hawk(like I do) and jumps on sales prices when they pop up. Geissele blemula sales are like 50% off, and most of the time, you'll have a hard time finding the "blem". Pretty much all the big websites do blem sales once or twice a yr. Sign up for the email notifications for all these websites, and you can save some money too. But idk maybe his department pays well
You should call this one the "Maserati" AR build...but like you said, you wanted 100% dependability and accuracy, and that don't come cheap. Thanks for sharing this.
Nice build! I went with a full BCM because I wanted the rifle equivalent of forcing the square block through the star shaped hole while making loud gorilla noises.
Do explain. I mean sub minute accurate, handles high rate strings and heat well, all but deleted recoil, hearing safe at the shooter, stone cold reliable with Tula and hotrodded ammo. I always love hearing what others value in their gun. I mainly want reliability, and accuracy.
Why is your flashlight more than your barrel. Rosco barrels are cheap. $4250 for an ar is stupid. But cops are dumb. I can tell you have no military experience

What length barrel? And what barrel treatment? CL or Nitride? I’m looking at buying a Rosco barrel for my first full build
16" I think he said. You can't go wrong with any barrel Rosco makes IMO.
16in chrome lined phosphate

Or maybe he watches sales like a hawk(like I do) and jumps on sales prices when they pop up. Geissele blemula sales are like 50% off, and most of the time, you'll have a hard time finding the "blem". Pretty much all the big websites do blem sales once or twice a yr. Sign up for the email notifications for all these websites, and you can save some money too. But idk maybe his department pays well
You should call this one the "Maserati" AR build...but like you said, you wanted 100% dependability and accuracy, and that don't come cheap. Thanks for sharing this.
Hahaha yeah, you get what you pay for though. But you'll always get better stuff if you can be patient and build it.
Nice build! I went with a full BCM because I wanted the rifle equivalent of forcing the square block through the star shaped hole while making loud gorilla noises.
Foward controls stuff is tight
You can’t have this in Michigan! It’s got more than one color! Yep Michigan is the turd state of gun control! democrats.
Wait explain. Can you not do this in Michigan? Bring me up to speed.
Well that's a fail lol
Do explain. I mean sub minute accurate, handles high rate strings and heat well, all but deleted recoil, hearing safe at the shooter, stone cold reliable with Tula and hotrodded ammo.
I always love hearing what others value in their gun. I mainly want reliability, and accuracy.
