My First Black Rifle

[Hohn]

The best are the builds that start with a spare dust cover.

Hmm, what to do with this random pivot pin I found...

Give it time. It will morph into an AR.

Or roll pin

It looks scary...

And evil...

And nice all at the same time.

Excellent work!

Good choice

I don't know if this is all out, but I don't know what much could be upgraded. Changed, yes-- but improved? Perhaps. I'm not knowledgeable enough to know what is better to be had.

It did seem to me that building this rifle could scarcely be done for the selling price.

Keymod seems to really save weight and-- more importantly-- put the balance in a good spot. With some nice light 10rd PMAGS, it should handle very well.

That is a beautiful rifle! It'll do anything and everything you'll want to do with it. Personally, I don't think I'd change a thing. But you'll want a good optic to go with it. I've been using the Trijicon MRO a lot lately and am absolutely in love with it. Just make sure to get a good mount with it as well.

Oh, and you seem to be a little light on mags there! I'd recommend a DSG holiday 10-pack!

DD, gold standard for ARs. Don't put anything dinky on it.

Yes, I'm light on mags. Byproduct of being light on cash after this transaction. So far the Lancer and magpul have my interest.

Looking in optic options. I like the idea of the cheapest Aimpoint as I'm not a tactical guy.

A major role of this rifle will be practicing good technique and development of skill with open sights. Hence the MBUs and no hurry yet for optic.

Looks good, Im sure it will serve you well! Just don't be surprised if other black rifles find their way into your safe now

Kinda like potatoe chips, can't stop at just one...
