$2150 for an remington r15(made by bushmaster) or $2000 for an NEA?

[skeet72]

Over priced, gay colour. Buy an NEA and paint it green or tan. Only like $20 for a can of Krylon or Rustoleum.

i take it your one of those "TACTERCOOL" people then, "gay colour" i beleve that is a matter of opinion, i did not want THE BLACK rifle

NEA's are grey. I don't think real tree looks great on an AR, even less so when it starts peeling off and you're left with white chips in your finish.

I should state I was in an extremely sour mood when I made that post, so apologies for any offence.

for all you ar nuts, what do you think of the remington r15?
as not every one wants the "black" rifle

30CALTerry has used one. Its accurate but he's bloody good at sighting in rifles. We had quite a play with it. The camo paint will just fall off it unless you are careful.
The paint is fragile if you don't mind that its a good gun. Needs trigger mods or replacement of course. This one was purchased for 2K with suppresser and looked like it would have had little or no use.
The prices on them will be lower in the future when theres a few with paint falling off all over the place. Not sure how hard to finish stripping it and repainting would be ?
Chucks a little bit of gas out the handle due to suppression. As a tool rather than a "model" gun it will definitely do the job ok Good as most better than some ??

Needs new trigger... Repeat after me .. Needs new trigger ..

there is a fwd assist mod that you can do, for suppresed ARs
removing it and putting in vent. may some thing to look at ??

IMO the fwd assist vent is a waste of time.
It moves gas 1" ---> that way

Bushmaster isnt the yard stick for quality they were 10 years ago. NEA

Nice rifle. I like it anyway.

Haha fighting opinion with opinion, with an insult thrown in for good measure.

Camp painted is more tacticoool than black ffs

[Nibblet]

Not sure I would say camo is tacticool, just different. Don't understand why people give a shit what others think of what your rifle looks like. If it's accurate and reliable mint. Paint it whatever colour you want.

When my camo wears off I might try anodized tan or give it a go going digi cam for shits and giggles.

Colour is all up to you personal preference, the missus want me to paint her 10/22 stock hot pink so that's what she'll get - but she wont catch me using it.
need some inspiration?

colour of the barrel isnt going to affect the speed it heats up from fireing

this may be tru but if left on a shooting bench (in between shots) witch one will disparate the heat more efficiently, and or heat up from the sun? a polished blued barrel vs a matt stainless steel one. identical barrels, same contour ect

[40bung]

Need to get yourself a jp heat dissipator, and contour your barrel to fit?
