Another AR-15 Rifle Project

Adding to the armory is another AR-15 build. Unlike the other build published earlier, this one is a rifle version of the black guns based on a Black Rain Ordnance upper and lower receiver pair. This project cam about because of the carbine build earlier. I wanted a full size rifle this time with iron sights just like the M16A2 I was issued in the Marine Corps.

AR-15 Carbine Build with Enhancements

The M16A2 and M4 are good battle rifles with their counterparts in the civilian world--the AR-15. With the availability and interchangeability of black rifle parts, it's too easy to assemble the AR-15 with upgrades to the modern battle rifle fit for non-military applications. I'm glad I got my hands on all the parts for my M4 variant build before the recent end-of-year madness that has now made purchasing those same parts more difficult than ever.

Awesome Black Rifles

Here are some good ARs that have been assembled over the past couple of years. Many have be reconfigured on more than one occassion. The AR platform is pretty versatile with calibers and furniture. The only one that haven't done much to is the LWRC M6 here.
