    Finally bought my First AR
    Vltor upper; Stag arms Lower with a Hera CQR stock. Put a Vector Swift 1-4.5 scope on it. Seems pretty good. Probably need to work on my technique to shoot it but pretty happy with it for my first AR

    Will be giving this an extensive review after I've put rifle thru it's paces - So far so good though, shoots ball ammo well with current setup.

    How do you find the ODL can's 5/8-24 thread on the AA 9/16-24 barrel thread?
    I have the 16" barrel, Aero upper/handguard and JP block in parts still.

    I painted rifle using Krlyon camo paint, fairly good stuff. I degreased the gun well before putting it on - should hold up for a wee while but it will eventually flake off which will give it that "worn" look, should look even better by then ;-)

    I had Scott at SSRNZ rethread it. Seamed the easest and most cost effective way. Otherwise he could have made up thread adaptor.

    Why would you paint an assault rifle in camouflage unless you had some kind of SAS or Rambo fantasy?

    Guess the same could be asked why one would feel the need to constantly troll?

    Because one can appears to be enough of an answer.

    It's no wonder that so many of the general public see shooters, especially those with military type guns, as dangerous loonies.

    What are people hiding from with a camouflage assault rifle? Colourblind deer?

    Probably more the fact they're misinformed and uneducated in the matter.
    Rainbows don't scare most people and they're multicolored

    I would suspect, that people who are scared of camoflage rifles, are also scared of them in their natural colour scheme.
